Orchid like filtered light, ice cubes work best for watering weekly I use around 5-6 cubes, they like coffee grounds as well.

Referring To The Large Green Dish @ 1:13 As A Lily Pad, Even More So, By Placing A Faux Blossom Inside. What A Beautiful Unique Centerpiece For A Table ... Oh Elizabeth, It's Too Good Of A Find.

[@bobbipetty7411]

What a good deal on the ottoman. And the shoes, yes please! 😆

[@oldmaplehome]

I thought so too! I may eventually move it to my bedroom. First time finding cute shoes at the thrift store 😃

[@susanrice3166]

The faux onions, would look great displayed in a basket in a porch area or kitchen 🙂

[@oldmaplehome]

I wish I would have grabbed some!

[@Sandra-fg9yo]

Precious Scripture. The shoes!!!! And the pretty ottoman was a great score!

[@smoothsailingmp]

At 21:11 it is a sewing machine seat....I have my grandmother's and her sewing machine from 1945 . My mother gave them to me in Cleveland, Ohio when I started sewing for our daughter age about 4 and when we moved to California in 1972 the set came with us. 😊

[@ThePoetInMyHeart]

I like how the stool makeover turned out! Great finds, as always. Yes to the homeschool room tour, too!

[@oldmaplehome]

Thank you!!

[@WowWee84]

I could spend multiple days browsing the rooms of the village shop.

[@barbarashelton6709]

Love all your fines!! YOUR HOME IS BEAUTIFUL!!

[@SA-oh8vh]

Loved the two pictures of the kids. Great for fall time & when I looked them up they came up as musical boxes. So looks like someone turned them into pictures ??? that vintage gold mirror in the beginning I found something just about like that at a garage sale this summer for my daughter. Paid $20 for it & felt like I stole it for that price lol

[@ashleyrigatoni702]

Those were popular images in the early 70s. There were pictures, music boxes, note cards, desk sets, trinket boxes, etc.

[@misslannie73]

I adore the floral armchair at the beginning. Now to watch the rest xx

[@oldmaplehome]

I loved that too, so pretty 😍

[@christinewilliams7005]

I love the blue and white plaid makeover on the stool - looks so fresh!

[@oldmaplehome]

Thank you!

[@bethmarcom6463]

Hello from NC. I just stumbled upon your channel and subscribed. Now I'm binge watching your videos on this Saturday afternoon.❤

[@oldmaplehome]

Oh hi Beth! So happy you’re here, thank you for subscribing! 🥰

[@junkymamasjunkinjourney3410]

Not sure if someone has already mentioned this, but the conch shells all have a hole because that is where they hit the conch and remove the “meat” to make conch fritters, etc. We went to a conch graveyard in the Bahamas and they were stacked waist high around the entire bay. They told us if you found one with no hole, most likely it was taken illegally. So, the hole is actually a good story. I have 8 of them and they are all like that. 😊

[@sarabrunsvold2461]

What wonderful finds!!! You are so creative in your displaying of decor. Love the stool!!

[@oldmaplehome]

Oh thank you so much Sara!!

[@karenhanley3912]

Your home looks beautiful!

[@lucyroberts2800]

I have a book of those little pictures I can’t remember the artist but I really like the style especially the wintery pictures .

[@BevForseth]

Wonderful finds! I love your positive attitude when you choose to leave items in the store for someone else to enjoy. ❤😊

[@oldmaplehome]

Thank you so much!

[@JanisLaDam]

Beautiful finds and great prices. San Diego prices are much more expensive. Lovely home and a real knack for putting everything together. You made my day.

[@oldmaplehome]

You made my day with this nice comment! Thank you 🥰

[@nancyciampa3485]

The holes in the conch shells are there because that's how you remove the conch.

[@marthajones7265]

Fabulous fines !! Your home is always so beautiful. ❤❤❤

[@vickismith9142]

Wow amazing finds you always find cool stuff😊

[@rosalynbaggett6049]

Not only can you use widen wine tracks for filling pins also rolled hands towels, magazines or yard.

[@franhasbrouck7661]

You brought home beautiful treasures to add to your home. The upcycle of the stool turned out really cute🪴

[@oldmaplehome]

Thank you Fran!

[@karenholdingmyown]

That store seemed to have great prices! I loved the floral chair! And I would have snapped up those primitive boxes in a heartbeat😂 Sandals are adorable! Is that basket you got from occupied Japan? I have 2 smaller ones from the same material and they look very similar other than the size, you can tell on mine on the bottom imprinted in the basket. Stool looks cute.

[@janiebea100]

Those Hummel plaques were something we made in the early 70s.

[@pf6079]

The vintage store prices seemed very reasonable!

[@LindaParra-kr4kl]

It seemed as if you were in someone's home where they had priced all of their belongings. You inspire me Elizabeth. I love what you did with that last bench and the blue and white T-towel. Continued Blessings!

[@martapekis3297]

You can put rolling pins in wine racks

[@tonyalawrence8753]

What a surprise to see my favorite little thrift store in Michigan that I shop in during the summer vacation from Florida!

[@oldmaplehome]

Oh that’s neat! I always find good stuff at that shop 🥰

[@patcutler2823]

Love that thrift store your home is so beautiful

[@SylvieBDT]

Merci pour cette balade, de belles trouvailles.

[@peggysiler4626]

You might could use the rack to roll towles up. Love the little pictures.

[@oldmaplehome]

That’s a good idea!

[@shannonharrald7771]

Hey there. I noticed the big shells you found while thrifting. Those are conch shells and the holes are from being hit with small hammers to remove the conch animal inside. We went to grand cayman and went diving for these. the captain of the boat made us conch soup from the conches we found. Pretty neat! So those most likely had conches inside that were eaten. ❤😊

[@oldmaplehome]

Hello, that is interesting! I had no idea. Thanks for sharing 😃

[@jeannetauferner8918]

I enjoyed this episode... love looking at all the unique items in the thrift shops. I would love to see your school room.. Do you also decorate some in the school room for the different seasons or holidays???

[@lucyroberts2800]

I only water my orchids once a week I also keep it one a partially sunny window I spray the leaves with water on watering day I only sparsely water . I keep them pot bound before moving them on to a new pot with special orchid compost they do not like being submerged by soil . This is not how they grow in the wild . These things have worked for me but I’m not an expect . Trial and error . Loved the shopping thought the prices were reasonable and the items were interesting .

[@joantraywick5599]

That little blue miniature bed, was from a dollhouse collection back in the 60’s. It was called Fantasy Furniture House. My sister and I had one. We always called it our fancy furniture house! 😂 we played hours every day with those. It also had a 4 piece family that went with it! Very sweet stuff!!

[@oldmaplehome]

Oh I love that! 🥰

[@shannonjohnson2105]

Yes love the improved stool . Would like to see homeschool room.

[@BEAGS19774]

Stool is MUCH improved. I would pick a bolder fabric, but what you chose works and is a billiom times better than than the original striped fabric that. Beautiful home.

[@oldmaplehome]

Thank you!

[@katen1228]

OMGosh, you got your husband to go in? WOW, mine would be waiting in the truck. Just sayin. lol. One of my grandsons gifted me some deer sheds, so I’m really looking forward to seeing how you use them. Oooooo love that blue and white fabric for that lil stool. Great choice!

[@oldmaplehome]

No lol, that’s my dad.

[@katen1228]

@@oldmaplehome , I’m just kidding but: He has a nice back side, lol. Please excuse me, but I’m an old grandma, I’m old, not dead. That should make your dad smile if not laugh. God Bless you, you made this grandma chuckle.

[@booklady8888]

Nice video, good finds! The bench came out very cute!

[@oldmaplehome]

Thank you!!

[@magritburke2511]

I love all your videos! I don't understand why I don't get notified when a new one comes out. I'm thinking if you maybe talked more about your outing with the family, the place you are at and what you are looking for, or maybe even waiting to get inspired by something it would help! I personally would live to know the whys of what you do! How do you get inspired?

[@oldmaplehome]

Have you ticked the notifications bell next to the subscription button? I’ll be posting on Saturday mornings at 9:00am EST 😊

[@EverydayThriftGarden]

I really enjoy your videos

[@melodytwitchell4898]

Hi everything is so beautiful once again my favorite verse. Have bless day 🙏 loves

Hi my bedroom is blue and white and soft green decor. I have all earth colors .in my home.loves

[@magritburke2511]

Btw, the scripture at the end is forever timeless. Thank you ❤

[@brendaw53]

Everyone has their own taste in decor I have that glass object that was said weird it’s really very pretty with a candy in it

[@oldmaplehome]

The doorknob? We thought it was really cool, weird that it ended being a doorknob because I’ve never seen one like it.

[@earlscoville]

Give them one to two ice cubes once a week, hopefully that will help.

[@MaryKamp]

Orchids like to be by an east facing window. See if that helps!

[@JoyceFrye-vx3nl]

So very pretty!

[@DoreenWitvoet]

For orchids you need to submerge them in some warm or room temp water for 5 minutes using an orchid fertilizer in the water. Once the 5 minutes is up, take it out and drain off all the water. And do that weekly. You may need to weigh the orchid pot down with something heavy while soaking as it tends to want to tip over or float. Then with the left over water you can water your other plants with it and all the plants will be happy.

[@maggiepadilla6915]

You can easily make little doll furniture . Then you can spend money at Hobby Lobby getting little accessories that you cant make. I just dont know if you have that kind of time though,lol. Wish I lived by you, i would enjoy doing that.❤

[@irenetovar7756]

So cute, your children are already starting to thrift.😅 I love the copper pitcher and how you redid the stool.

[@mistikesner6285]

I never watered my orchids. I just put a few icecubes around it and that works great

[@oldmaplehome]

That’s what I’ve been doing 🥲

[@Tiffany_Moon]

Hey! I know where this is! Lol 🤭 It was so nice meeting you today! Meeting you and coming home with a few of your treasures was the highlight of my day! Next time you are in Blanchard, I have a little farm stand on 4th street called The Sassy Hen Farmstand, dont hesitate to stop by and say hello! 🩷 Thanks again for a wonderful visit! Happy Thrifting, fellow KZbinr! 🩷🥰 -Tiff

[@oldmaplehome]

Hi Tiffany! It was great meeting you as well! I actually just friend requested you on Facebook, we have so much in common 😃 So cool to meet a fellow KZbinr that lives near me! Hope to talk soon!

[@Tiffany_Moon]

@oldmaplehome Ahhh thank you so much! Means a lot! And we do!! So excited we live so close! We are practically neighbors! Lol 💕 If you guys ever need anything or you want a thrifting buddy, don't hesitate to reach out! I also remembered as soon as I got home that I have your tote!! Ahh! So sorry about that! Next time, I head in that direction, I'll drop it off on your porch for ya! So sorry about that! I was just so excited after meeting you I completely forgot and felt so bad after I got home! 🤦‍♀️ Just when I thought I couldn't be more awkward, I just walk off with your tote. LOL 😂🤦‍♀️ I hope you guys have a wonderful weekend! 🥰

[@anapaulalimaberlinckdoming6431]

I lovedd shopping! I'am brazilian ❤🇧🇷

[@tracysoof3264]

Love the things you found in the little shop. Would love e to know name of the shop. I live in Michigan and would love to make a day trip. Thanks for sharing🙂

[@oldmaplehome]

It’s the only one in Blanchard, the village is extremely tiny. I’m not sure I would make a long trip out of going there. Loafer’s Glory is in Blanchard and that is worth a drive, but they might be closing down soon 😢

[@tracysoof3264]

Thank you. I don't live far and would go to other places to explore😀

[@christineskiles6592]

Question: What was the white container with a lid you lifted? It has sections within it??? Wrecked my brain trying to figure out what it was.

[@smoothsailingmp]

Nice of your husband to corale the kids with him so you could shop....I didn't care for the door knobs with no centers either 😮...looks like a nice clean store

[@oldmaplehome]

I was with my dad. They love their papa and are really well behaved in stores 🥰

[@eleanorstockton4921]

Bench would have been with a sewing cabinet.

[@maggiepadilla6915]

That brass pitcher was my favorite and only $14! Loved the bench too. You got the lines perfectly straight that made it look high end. I love your videos and that sweet calming voice!❤❤

[@oldmaplehome]

I love it too so much!

[@tammyleviner3070]

The flowers on the front porch of the antique shop were gorgeous! The larger white ones looked like begonias.. those were always some of my fav ones to plant for my front porch area. I would get some of each color & the different types, and different coleus' and mix them with some fillers to make my own pots. They both grow pretty fast & easy to care for. I've never had any luck with geraniums 🤷‍♀️ Beautifully curated on the inside, so many beautiful pieces! The phone was pretty cool😊 I love the Victorian doll houses, so pretty! The sewing room was really cool!I love collecting old lamps.. the one with the angel was beautiful & what a great price! That set of Desert Rose dishes that was under the conch shells you were looking at, we had that same set in the thrift store we owned in TN. I love copper, the pitcher Is really cute😊 I love all your pieces & how you have them styled! When we find a house here & If I have good counter space,i want to find one of the accordian wine racks & pot my rolling pins in it.. I've seen several people doing that & i really like the way it looks! The little pictures on the wood plaque's are so cute😊 I have several pieces made that way. One in particular is a very old painting of a man in uniform in the civil war era.. mid 1800's. Its so old I have to be very careful with it, tiny little pieces chip off the edges very easily. The stool/ottoman is very pretty, looks nice with that chair! I haven't started really collecting the transfer ware, i just have several pieces. But they really have some of the prettiest scenes on them. I want to start collecting them, in all the different colors, the purple & the teal are my fav's & of course hardest to find🥴 The frame is beautiful❤ I love ornate frames, the oval ones are my fav! The brass match holder is really cool, looks like an older piece. The topiary is beautiful! Love the colors & the vine going down the stem piece. When we lived in NC, my husband, my son & myself we in a hunt club. We had a smaller upright freezer we kept mostly just meats in. We stocked up every deer season & would have plenty throughout the year. We took our deer to a processer so it was cured & vacuumed sealed. We had ground, cubed steak, stew meat, roast, sausage, chops, deer steaks, pretty much everything! I miss hunting, but i miss having that meat, much healthier than beef or pork. In off season we would walk thru different wooded areas & look for the sheds, or antlers. That was always fun for my son! The little gingham shades are precious😊 Oh I love those sandals, so pretty💙 The stool turned out so pretty, love the material you used! You really found some great pieces! The prices at that shop looked to be pretty reasonable too! Hope You & your family have a blessed weekend!😊 TFS!

My daughter had a pod home schooling during COVID where a group of 4-6 sets of parents putting their money together & hired a couple of teachers to teach , one, the K gardener kids & the second one a first grade teacher to teach the other group of kids. My grand kids shot up in their grade level advancing beyond what was state requirement! I think it’s a great way to teach! Last, love your treasures!
