shopping VINTAGE & SALVAGE home decor + haul *SO DREAMY* | XO, MaCenna Vlogs

[@madebynat]

I love that they know the history of so many pieces and are transparent if they don’t know or if something is new! They seem lovely!

[@flatbalcony1478]

I was actually surprised with how little they knew lol😂 but I guess that’s a European take

[@flatbalcony1478]

They did seem very nice!

I guess so.

[@anupriyakhare4519]

The marble 'trivet' is a pataa. We roll our chapattis on them even today. Very easy to find all over India, and most of us have them in our house, but the top detail yours has is definitely different! Mine cost a bit under 200 rupees or under 2 dollars. So, if you do visit India, come with an empty suitcase for these items and cheap prices!

[@Entrepreneurusa]

Lol 😂 That’s hilarious…$2 ,,, 😂

[@nicoledavidart9569]

Beautiful items. All I could think about though was that episode of Friends where Rachel bought decor from Pottery Barn but convinced Pheobe that she bought it from a vintage flee market and everything was from the "times of yore" haha.

[@bhumikathakkar9186]

A tip for that marble chapati /roti/ tortilla maker use a wet rag below it while using so that it doesn't move or scratch your countertops.

[@ksingh2216]

Thats true but I don't think she is going to use it for rolling. It will mostly act like as decor piece.

[@jmk1962]

She could stick some felt onto the underside of the feet so she can slide it around without scratching the soapstone.

[@lavanyadhulipala4305]

You should come to India to see most of these things are available so much cheaper. The chapati( flat bread) marble roller stand is a staple item in most Indian kitchens. We also use granite and wooden ones here.. definitely should visit :)!

[@Amacott99]

The teak pots are called theki . They were used in northern India and Nepal to store milk fat and other “liquids”. I live here in India and have been collecting them over the last year. They come in all shapes and sizes.

[@Yakuniashki]

Yes, my Indian college sad it's for milk too.😁

[@laurennsspencer]

I love how we can tell that you really love something because you gender it! “She’s beautiful” or “I had to have her” or “isn’t he gorgeous?” It think it’s so sweet, it’s like you give the piece a personality!

[@michyd7981]

It's THE most annoying thing ever!

[@bmj1680]

Please don’t gender items. You’re objectifying women.

[@agathachris9722]

Exactly

[@amandamcdonald9152]

I love going shopping for antique/vintage finds. I love how you talk about each piece like "she" is a living being!

[@moitryechatterjee8605]

that small marble trinket is called "Chakli" and is used as a flat surface to make roti/ chapatti (indian flat bread) on so that it doesn't stick to the kitchen counter. The roller used to flatten the dough is called "Belan", so together they are "Chakli-Belan"

[@JAMoore-zz3ki]

@7:10 on the video - those tiny wooden stools. I found one nearly identical to the one in the middle of that grouping on the video, at a thrift store here in town. Paid $3. I don't know if it's actually vintage or new, but I love it.

[@Kevin-sm8pn]

Yikes. You paid too much! I just got an entire truckload of them for free, and they're 9 billion years old and still look brand new and pristine! Beat that, girly!

[@stellamantikou4978]

Coming from a Mediterranean country myself, I am a bit suspicious about the pricing of those items. There are usually less pricey in situ and when they are old like that (and I am guessing even cheaper when bought in bulk). I guess the shipping and other costs are included in the price you pay for them. But still. The anthropological curiosity of it all: my grandma's old things from our village home are considered "vintage" in the US and priced steeply. 😯☺ edit: some grammar mistakes 😅

[@drew2510]

While I am from the U.S., I agree about being a little suspicious of the pricing. It is a high-end furniture store in Los Angeles, so of course it is going to be pricey, but I just felt like a lot of the prices looked more simple and potentially DIY (yet pretty obviously!)

[@ReadAndThrift]

Yeah it’s a store in LA so they can definitely up the prices! I thought the same thing

[@Scorpio17_17]

LOL I found the exact stuff at Home Goods and you can find them online at TJMaxx & Marshall’s.. they’re reproductions made in India made to look “Vintage”.. really easy to set up a nice store in Pasadena & West L.A. & get some Brits to sell it to you.. everybody falls for it. “Vintage” items are extremely expensive.. shipping them over making sure they don’t get damaged, not to mention paying customs fees.

Pretty sure she’s Australian 😅

[@deek8623]

We have loads of this exact stuff in Australia sold as “vintage” .. as my uncle was an authentic antique Asian furniture trader I know none of this stuff is old . But it does look aesthetically beautiful.. not sure who is telling the porky pies the people buying it overseas or the overseas sellers. At least this store isn’t over charging (much) .. many do 😮

[@LenaMMcKee]

I feel like the style I've purchased throughout last year and I have over paid for everything. Now Amazon sells similar looking stuff as well so I guess we're saturated

[@biggyziggy5777]

I was thinking the same … “ Vintage “ … and funnily enough l live in Australia as well 😊😊🇦🇺

[@amara560]

How do you recognize some of the real vintage finds?

[@kbl55429]

I was thinking the same thing, that stuff is not old, all the multiples look too much alike.

[@valeriemacias6285]

I went to a flea market where a couple of booths were selling identical stuff to each other AND it was identical to the stuff at Olive Atelier. It's definitely not vintage...

[@ceciliajuarez565]

Good morning Maccena, I just wanted to wish you a beautiful day and you’re such a joy to watch. When ever I feel down, your videos make me feel happy and you’re a reminder that there is still good and kind people in this world.

[@beckykueng3017]

I feel the exact same way !! She is such a joy to watch and I can only imagine what a wonderful "best friend" she would make....kind, caring, funny and truly connected !! Look forward to her videos every week and can't wait for Vlogmas so we can see her EVERY DAY !!!

[@krickette5569]

I would caution you about using the bread board for food purposes. I feel like you need to be certain about it's treatment during the shipping process and/or if there were any kinds of preservatives used on the wood surface etc. before you use it. I too would want one of everything from that store but the Olive vases were Stunning!

[@lajuanaadams80]

Everyone needs a day just to enjoy. You and Romeo deserve this time to enjoy yourselves. Have a great time.

I can’t wait so see more of the journey but I find you so relatable and I truly appreciate everything you do even if it’s not always easy. xoxox

[@NixBurkett1984]

This place just screams perfection. I'm incredibly lucky I get to see a lot of these finds when I visit my Turkish Cypriot family in North Cyprus. My Grandmother (My Nene) moved back there after retirement. Now im older, I really take the time to appreciate the history and beauty of it all. 🤍🧿💙 Much to you & anyone who reads this from London, England 🇬🇧

[@baylynn5]

It’s really awesome that the cottage kitchen has dark soap stone and the island with it’s lighter worktop. When you have a kitchen that is all white or all dark, it’s a lot more restrictive to pick accessories which contrast that base. Love it!

[@shellydsouza8902]

Hi Xo, I love your enthusiasm for life and vintage. Yu are very excited about your teak haul. I am from Goa, India, my home is nestled in a hilly forest and all my doors and windows and a fair bit of furniture is made of teak. It’s an excellent wood that can withstand the monsoon rains and termites. I’m glad Yu found something from my part of the world. There are nights, I just admire my teak front doors. The wood is an absolute beauty.

[@victoriaamessir6794]

aww love love when kensey check u boxes or shooping .

[@SuchaCaligrrl]

The Frisco area in Texas is an Indian community, everytime I see an estate sale on that side of town I make sure to attend. I have scored many beautiful Indian items. When the Hindus/Indians go back to visit their country they'll go for months or when their loved ones come visit them they come for months and during those trips they bring back tons and tons of things/furnishings/fabrics/clothes so most of the things in their homes are authentic and from their country... 😍. The only thing I have yet to score is that Indian gold... they keep that close to their hearts 🥰.

Can't believe the upgrade that those items will provide in a decorating experience. Styling with a number of those items can honestly take an environment to the level of ultra swiftly. Plan to bring items back to Texas in stages!!!

The marble piece you picked up is used in India as a base to roll flat bread(naan/roti etc.). Of course, now its made of lighter materials like Aluminum/wood but some people still use marble one's.

[@isamarpena6075]

Hello MaCenna, I know you mentioned in one of your previous videos that you weren’t renewing your lease, and that you wanted to change some things to to their original state in the apartment. I was thinking, maybe you should show your landlord your updates. Since the style is very appealing he might not mind some black paint on the windows. Plus, you did such a good job.

[@jmk1962]

Yes Drew's landlord loved what he did to his apartment and he didn't have to change anything back. Macenna should send him some pictures and see what he says.

[@1jmass]

I remember this place from when “we” visited it with Drew. I was fascinated by the tree in the middle of the room. I know nothing about the items they carry, but they are all so unique. Even in a stack of seemingly identical bowls, each one has it’s characteristics. Many times what appears to be a flaw, simply adds to it’s charm and personality.

[@jeanetteramirez8736]

Seeing y’all ready to start a family and make all these big decisions really warms my heart 🫶🏻 every time you talk about starting a family I’m so excited for you! You’re gonna be great ofc 🥰

I know it’s not your content “theme” but maybe in a Q&A video?? ❤️❤️ Just how you found your style and if you feel like your personal style and your interior style go together!

[@AyeshaKhan-mc4dj]

Someday, maybe you should try to attempt making a chapati (which is an Indian flatbread) on that marble rolling board - every household in India owns one of those. Also, all the other salvaged items are lovely. I’m sure your mom will love the French vase.

[@fionamorris9634]

Of course it’s ok, we love seeing your vlogs MaCenna. I had to add the pieces you bought from Olive Atilier are investment pieces, you didn’t go crazy you’re buying pieces that will last forever and they’ll just be the finishing touch that will make every room there in utter perfection.😁

[@jeannerasmus6283]

Loved that store. I am a Canadian who has lived in Turkey for 16 yrs. Cool stuff eh!! :)

Your mother should paint a moody floral on the bread board. You can have one side blank and the other with a painting so it can be flipped when you want to change it up ❤️🤎

If it comes from Turkey it was probably manufactured in a factory outside Istanbul a couple of months ago. Turkey is renowned for manufacturing copies of everything, good copies undoubtedly but definitely not antique or vintage.
