Hey Mary, my husband and I recently stayed in the Apple Blossoms cottage. Words cannot accurately describe how beautiful and perfectly curated it is. We also found some amazing thrifted items. We went to the Harvest Thrift Shop and many others. Harvest was my favorite as it is styled like an antique shop instead of a thrift shop. The prices were incredible. We also were able to meet John when he came over to the cottage to do some weed eating. The views are amazing on the hill and I enjoyed just sitting on the patio while drinking my coffee in the morning. We actually ate all of our meals at the cottage. Your kitchen is so well stocked with cookware, etc which made it so easy to prepare them. I guess I could go on and on about our wonderful vacation to Berlin. Thank you for always sharing your projects with us. You are a true inspiration. I look forward to seeing you transform your thrifted items. Have a lovely day💕

In July of 1961, I was born in a dusty West Texas town called Slaton. A few days later my Dad took me and Mom home in a black and white 1957 Bel Air Chevrolet. We affectionately call her Bella. My Brother inherited her back in the 70's and is now having her restored. I had my Daughter on Feb.14, 1986. I took her home in a 1973 Pontiac which he now has stored. They are both still beautiful cars even though Bella was in need of a new paint job. I'm now 63 and my Daughter is 38. I just Love Your Channel, because it's very calming to me. And I love it when you take us thrifting with you and give your purchases a new life. Your Flowers and Plants are exquisite. I'm very glad that we both come from Family of Classic Car Owners. I'm so glad you are here on KZbin! Thanx for the Wonderful videos! 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

This was such a fun video! I called my husband in and said "you've gotta watch this with me!" We restored my Dad's 1967 Mustang Convertible in his memory, and it's my pride and joy! Living in New England we only enjoy it on sunny summer days, but to me it's priceless! Your story made me smile because my Dad also had a 1957 T-Bird, and I was the only one he'd let drive it, and wouldn't let my brother use it! Dads and daughters have a special bond. I always enjoy your videos, and your talent amazes me, but this one made my heart happy and put a big ole smile on my face! Cant wait to see what you do to that gorgeous wardrobe!

My dad always had Fords, mustangs, shelbys cougars all kinds. But when I was in my teens he traded one of his fully restored XR7 cougars for a shell of a mustang that came in boxes. He is a body man so he completely restored it and it became my favorite car he ever had. It was a 1969 BOSS 429 WITH 16,000 MILES and it was black. He let me drive it to school when I was 16. He also let me drive it to a local car show and I won best in show.
