Megan you are not bragging at all. You should be very proud of all your finds. You worked very hard for them and deserve every blessing in finding them. I love the way you have styled your home.

[@karendixon401]

Absolutely ingenious 😃💕👍😍

[@katerineella274]

I am retired now but I used to care for elderly people in their homes. Nearly all my furniture and most mirrors, lamps and bits and bobs were given to me by the old people or their relatives. Plus I've lovingly held on to the few things I was able to save from my grandparents apartment in Vienna. They have a craftsmanship that you just couldn't possibly afford today. My mother and grandmother both made their own lace and embroidery. I like to honor their skill and effort by displaying their work. I hope someone who appreciates these things gets them when I die.

[@jeannehunter5344]

I love the way you have found ways to stack and display books. Your husband's proud comments are just so precious. You've created a beautiful family and home.

[@krebzz3166]

The chemistry between the couple is so genuine. Loving it

[@angelanapier4248]

I totally agree with you, that’s why almost everything in my house is either thrifted or given to me as hand me downs. Thrifting is my favorite thing to do.

Lovely home! You have such a gift to decorate. Your home seems very cozy.

[@Judymontel]

This is SUCH a fun tour - I remember when you found many of these items, I remember you figuring out the origin of the German cabinet and when you first got the quilt that lovely viewer made you, I remember the first configuration of the side room with the awkwardly angled wall and loved that one AND this new one, and all the videos about the process of decorating the dining room... wow! In every piece, every room - so many fun memories as well as learning new things about them. Thank you!

[@CathyMiller0711]

I love your philosophy about thrifting and your style!

[@nancymoe4476]

Meg, I love how Mike encourages your creativity, because it truly is a gift from God. Thank you for pointing out that thrift stores often will "tell you what you like". You're right, and I often go in with something in mind but settle on something else.

[@ap85jp87]

I keep thinking about downsizing, but I love everything I've collected. You've made me walk through my home to just enjoy the old books, the dishes, the baskets and the wonder of bargains through the years. Thank you!

I’ve started thrifting and have found some beautiful treasures. And I’ve been able to add to my classroom library. Thank you!

[@dottiebaker6623]

You are a thrift store kindred spirit!! My house is almost all thrifted, antiqued, bought from others or passed down. Love that gorgeous piece your tv is on in the family room!!! What a score! Also that bunny lamp is so so cute! You have found great stuff and have a great eye! And cheers to liking what you like rather then what’s trending!!! 😀-Liz in FL🌴☀️

Such a great couple. They work well together. You can feel the admiration and friendship they share. I really enjoyed your tour.

[@barbjanderson7559]

I truly love hearing someone talk about what they "love" in their homes. So much more fun to watch then someone hating what they have:)

[@lindabulgrien3283]

Loved this! The framed embroidery reminded me of time spent doing this with my grandmother. You have given me some ideas on how to refresh my space mixing our antique furniture pieces , artwork and plates. 😊

[@roselarouge9107]

My entire house is furnished from off the street (people in my town just put stuff outside, I love it!) except the loveseat that’s been in my family since the late 1940s, the couch, mattresses and box springs as I bought those new. Two days ago I found a claw foot dining table and chairs! I just put the dining set I scored two years ago outside for someone else.

[@missybekind5022]

@ Rose La Rouge , your table sounds like an awesome score!! I have so much I'd love to sit out on the curb if I knew somebody would take it!! Only because I want older pieces!😁

[@johnbean3943]

Your style of design is fabulous, just like ur personality! Your daring enough to put things together others would never dare to do and with thrifted whatever you can find things and the outcome is wonderful!! Your sense of color is warm and inviting, again very daring!! You live in a rainbow and I love it. Being a lifetime student of design, you have given me new ideas and inspiration as well. Thank you for that. 🥰💝💖 Johns wife

[@crystaltelf288]

I absolutely love your dining room...it’s perfect! The curtains just make the dining room come together. Now I really love the library...glad you kept playing with it (the couch is my least favorite there). As a women, I love all the pink highlights in the living room! That yellow sofa in your bedroom is my favorite sofa ...ever!

[@kimberlywalker1015]

What a really neat video! I agree with you thrifting is so much fun.... I'll just go ahead and throw this out there since we're talking about thrifting ...'it's like a box of Cracker Jacks you never know what you're going to get'....till you find it. How beautifully your colors and furniture work together....AMAZING PIECES, here. You've done a wonderful job of having quite a few books, pictures... and things like that; and yet, you kept the space, uncluttered. One main goal that I had when we moved.... Was to keep the space "paired down" yet used the things I loved(most of it, "thrifted", as well) to make our house a home. Great job this was an amazing tour!😀

[@lynfairbairn]

I loved all your thrifted pieces. I thoroughly enjoy having an eclectic house instead of something cookie cutter and following the current trend. It is obvious your house is loved and a home 🏡 Really enjoyed this video.

[@savorsalvagescent2300]

Once in a while the KZbin algorithm gets it right and this is one of those times. I love your style + the warmth of your home! Such a great eye. I am drooling over it all the the landing with all of the crewel (that bonsai!!) - be still my heart!

As an avid thrifter this little tour was great! You have some amazing finds! I too love that my house has little treasures with their own story.

[@allyjordan5730]

I've been watching your videos for almost 2 years, and I have started to love thrifting again. And now, I have a collection of beautiful quilts and cut crystal stuff.

[@shorst7986]

I love the tour of your house! I also love to shop second hand for treasures. They will stand the test of time, where as stuff in the stores does not last. It gives your home character also! Thanks for some inspiration and ideas!

[@hermaggiesty]

Gosh that was soooo good I could listen to you talk about thrifting/antiques/decorating all day. I always learn something

[@marjielalonde3875]

It was lovely to tour the house and see everything all in one video, and to remember when you found some of the pieces.

[@sjb3028]

Love this and love your resourceful creativeness! Lots of inspiration for my cottage. So smart to reuse, recycle and renew beautiful vintage well made pieces. Love all of your baskets as well! You have a great eye.

[@rebeccawoodbixler9536]

Thrifting is a good way to add to my family antiques that I love and so are estate sales. 😊

[@victoriabrack6283]

Finding something that said (YOU) is all ways a good fine. A home expresses the art in you.The tour was great, beautiful home. The old time furniture has more character and made with care. Hope all of you 11. are good. :+)

[@lauracastillo6800]

This is one of my favorite videos you put out.. I love thrifting too. Just about everything I have has been bought at a thrift store, yard sale or estate sale. What I like is that you Megan have the artistic creative side. Mike has the talent to built and display what is needed. You both have each other and with your talents you also save money. That’s a good thing. I love all your designs. I can’t wait one day to see the house you are building. 🏠

OMGOODNESS 😱 I enjoyed so much!! Your finds are amazing!!! WOW!! That "Gentlemen's cabinet" 😱😱😱, those absolutely beautiful other cabinets, that desk (that appears pink but I could be wrong), that white couch at 150 bucks 😱 that beautiful dining table with that lovely bench 😱😱😱😱 I could go on and on but I'll stop 😁Ok, one more -----the embroidery gallery 😱😱😱 A-MA-ZING! Andddd, the rocking chair🤭🤭🤭 Ok, I'm done! Very enjoyable! PS - you're NOT bragging, you're informing and inspiring us!!

[@grizeldaxxx4568]

I am pretty sure that small Gentleman's travelling cabinet would have held the "gozunder" aka Toilet (usually they went under the bed hence the nick name because it goes under the bed....so many Treasures loving the Embroidery Flower pictures too! Adored the yellow couch and Red rug in bedroom ! We love the hunt too and Our place is filled with unique things , My mother was an antique dealer so I grew up with them and absorbed a lot of knowledge by just being around them and can spot a bargain ..we also love to watch Antiques rd show and have fun guessing the prices ..I totally agree with saving them going to the tip ...there is No such thing as throwing away as it is all on the Planet x

[@asbpo73]

Your joy is evident as you share your thrifting finds! You and Mike, together, have done a great job❣️ I love the fact that you even change things up every now and then, to how you feel. That’s the kind of intuitiveness that we all need!! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@annnw3808]

You are a breath of fresh air! What a pleasure to see a house decorated with personality instead of trends and to watch a thrifting video where the items were bought to specifically furnish a home, not to resell. I built my forever home 4 years ago, and needed to furnish and accessorize it almost completely from scratch. About 75% had to be thrifted or from Craigslist, but they are the highest quality, most beautifully-made antique and vintage pieces I've ever owned. I will never again waste my money on mass-produced, pressboard 'trends'. You have collected with a good eye and all your pieces will look as good in your new home as they do in your current rental because they reflect you.

[@mariacasella979]

So welcoming,cozy,comfortable,inviting,a home filled with love and appreciation for the history of every piece chosen 💝

[@gabriellsbaby]

It's lovely when things are repurposed and given a new life in a new home. My issue is falling into a thrift addiction and turning a home into a "thrift" store. I don't mind having a few vintage pieces of art and home decor if they are meaningful. For me I have a hard time cherry picking the very best from a thrift store not because I need it but because I understand its value and its a good buy, that leaves the garbage for people without resources who only have this option to put their house together. I have struggled with "maximizing" because thrifting is so fun and exciting. I am glad that thrifting doesn't have the stigma it did when I was a kid. It is really "cool" for teenagers to thrift now, and it kinda levels the playing field for kids from different economical backgrounds.

[@meganblasco2]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Beautiful home & beautiful truth. Thrifting rocks!

[@susanweiss938]

Your home is so warm, beautiful and artful. One of my all-time favorite home tours.

I’ve been thrifting since I was 16. My whole apt is done in teak. I loved your point about old woods and art. I’ve scored amazing art to complement my own photography. It’s a green way to live and it’s a joy to assemble beautiful objects with soul.

[@sheenadavies23]

What a lovely home you’ve made! it’s bursting with personality and individuality. Above all, your message to recycle is crucial to help save our world ! if we all popped to our local thrift stores, charity shops etc, before buying new and draining natural resources, the impact would be immense !

Love it!!!
