Your so right! Thanks for watching and I hope all is going well with you.

Hi Robin As much as I absolutely loved the pink floral look , one of my favorote combinations is bkue and white. Ypu have beautiful pieces. We must be sisters with a different mister😂. I love to put art work like that out. I decorate for Valentines Day, Spring, Summer, Fourth of July, Fall , Christmas ...ypu name it I got decor for. My friends say too much work, but I think people like you, me and lots of subscribers enjoy it. I think i told you most of my thrifting comrs from estate sales. The prices are so good around here because , unfortunately, Huntington has,older people passing away or older people moving to Florida. One of the comments said the blue and white looks cool now that the temps are so high...s p agree ..supposed to be one hundred tomorrow. I would like,to have a maxi dress with a white background and blue floral. Thanks Robin...love "seeing" you do your amazing makeovers. I may just have tp be a copy cat. I have,the Blue Willow and some beautiful blue and white plates made in Spain. Have a wonderfup rest of the week ❤.

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

I think you maybe right, I love changing things up and it is not a chore at all for me to dig out new thrifted stuff to decorate with. Now putting away all the old stuff is never fun for me but I get around to it eventually 😅

[@carolynmaves503]

It is lovely how you incorporate artwork into your decor. In the past year my health has improved (recovery from knee surgery) so I have had the strength to renew my thrift store hobby/obsession. It has been fun to add to my decor and make some changes as my style has evolved. I think I will start looking for small artwork pieces like you have. Something a little different from my dishes, books, and houseplants. Thanks for another lovely video.

*Oh Robin, I always L💙VE IT when you bring out your blue and white dishes❣️🥰 💙 They seem to just "cool down" the atmosphere when things are so HOT 🔥 🥵 outside‼️ WHEW‼️😓😨😰 Your new little side table is GORGEOUS, and the pothos plant 🪴 on top is so lush and green. 😁 Don't take this the wrong way, but I hope you don't paint that little table white...it's just that it really POPS in that corner with the dark wood and, IMHO, painted white I think it would disappear and fade into the wall and you would lose that design element. 😉 I also absolutely L💚VE the variegated pothos on your hutch...variegated pothos are one of my favorite plants. 🪴* *Not sure if you know this, but Nicole Northgarden just thrifted some of the EXACT PATTERN of small plates like the one you put on the easel next to the artwork of the lake scene in your hutch. GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE❣️😁💙🤍*

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

I had the very same thought about the table. If and it's a big if, I ever decide it needs a change I plan to simply tone down the dark stain and make it look more like a rustic wood look like I did with the corner desk. But for now I am loving how it contrasts with the wall color

[@lesliejackson8188]

@@RobinJohnsonDecor *Yep, I had the same thought as you, LOL...but I think it may be veneer on top and I worried if you toned it down the top might waffle like galvanized metals sometimes do. 😔 Not sure if you know this, but I am the daughter of Antique Dealers and people would ask my parents about how to fix problems like that after the damage 💔 was already done. Nothing fixes that except a whole new layer of veneer. 😔*

The fresh flowers are alstroemeria lilies. As long as you change the water daily and cut the stems on the diagonal every other day, they should last quite a while - they’re pretty hardy. Also, you can add a tiny splash of lemon-lime soda to the water when you change it. They like that - in fact, most cut flowers do.

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

I have never heard about the lemon lime trick!!! Thanks so much for letting me know about it. I will definitely give it a try.😊😊

[@lesliejackson8188]

@@RobinJohnsonDecor *Yes, I, too, have been using (cheap) lemon-lime soda in flowers 💐 FOR YEARS! Be sure you buy the kind WITH SUGAR - they use it like flower food, and the citric acid helps keep the flowers fresher longer. You only need about 1/4th of a cup in a LARGE vase of water. I buy a 16 oz. bottle of soda to use. It doesn't matter if the soda goes flat, LOL❣️😉 Alstroemeria can last as long as 2 WEEKS if you use lemon-lime soda, change the water every 2 days and cut ✂️ a smidgen off the bottom of the stems at an angle each time you change the water - but cut the stem and IMMEDIATELY PUT IT IN THE WATER so air bubbles don't travel up the stem while it lays on the counter (cutting them all and THEN putting them into water is not good) because the water absorbed up the stem will be much reduced. 😔*

[@delmorrow896]

@@lesliejackson8188 Cutting the stems in a sink with a couple of inches of water in it solves the problem of air getting into the stems and blocking absorption. Just hold the bottom of the stem underwater while trimming it, and then immediately putting it into a vase of fresh water with lemon-lime soda works wonders to extend the life of the blooms. So does making sure that there are no leaves in the water in the vase. Leaves in the water tend to rot quickly, and the bacteria kills the blooms. Leaves that are 100% above the water are okay to leave on the stems.

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

Alright I am learning so much today, thank you so much😊
