Hi . That's a Hoya plant , don't cut the long brown stems off , those are tendrils and new leaves grow on them . 😊 It's a gorgeous plant and when it blooms it smells amazing 😍

[@terrifiorelli9819]

One of my favorite.😊

[@corinnah5301]

Thank you for your comment, I was about to write the same!

[@briggsyontheridge3598]

I love hoyas! I can't get over how big it is. It's beautiful! And, yes, don't cut the tendrils. They will reach for the light and work their way around the beam.

[@redgirlsrain]

Yeah, it looks like it might be a hoya pubicalyx. It made me so sad to see her cutting off all the new growth, I'm surprised the people at the shop didn't warn her not to. I have a large one in my computer room and it gets the most beautiful flowers. Another tips is you should never cut the flowers off of a hoya as they won't re bloom from that spot if you cut off the peduncle.

[@janetbergquist9454]

I have 2 huge Hoya plants like that, and they are very easy to care for. Don't over-water. The flowers are amazing. I like the look of it hanging from the beam more than in the corner.

[@thereversepolarbear]

The chance meeting with the lady who also runs a vintage shop sounds magical. How wonderful. It was only in the last video or the previous one you were saying how difficult it is to find vintage at the moment and then - pop - there she is. Amazing.

[@marymartinez2726]

I still cant get over your skylight!!! It changed everything. What an awesome change. The light and beautiful beams. That is such a special area. So clever to do that. A high light for everyday. ❤️

[@Onreeme346]

I think it would be pretty to move your largest mirror propped against the wall where your tree is to bounce light into your living space. You can use your tree to shade the light however bright you want it.

[@wildflowerwind6941]

I have mentioned that too. The mirror would reflect the opposite of room where the windows are.

[@peggynorton5145]

Same here. Maybe the other gold mirror over the mantel

[@Angela-g9e6f]

Yes, many have suggested that. And the painting of the woman is more suitable for your dressing room or bedroom. A collage of mirrors would look wonderful on the two walls above the benches.

[@lindabridge7248]

They are called ginger jars

[@patriciaclark-ch4br]

I agree as well. It will also make the room look bigger

[@klarameijer1889]

The pots with the lids are ginger pots. They where used to preserve the ginger.

[@sandhyayogitha9124]

To Store pickles also!! In India they called pickel jar or masala jar

[@ingaurban404]

Some of them are tea urns!!!

[@Angela-g9e6f]

Jinger jars are what they’re called.

[@Seelieness]

Also came to say they are ginger jars. Think of them like herb jars or preserving jars (usually sealed with wax))

[@heatherburrill]

I am so happy that you picked up that lovely poppy ceramic container - I think it is so beautiful. Good clothing finds that you made too. Mustard dress looks so pretty and comfortable. It will be great to see how you style them all. That blue dress looks like something right off of the fashion runway of the past.😊 I hope that the right person finds that gem on your website. What a great week that you had finding that woman and her amazing vintage collection 🥰. I love when those serendipitous moments happen in life ❤.

[@Cookie_moonlove]

Oh the brown stems on the vines are what the Hoya plants climbs with and then form new leaves on so you really shouldn't cut them off if you want it wrapping and growing around the beams.

[@EliseBuch]

It lost quite a lot of leaves in the untangle phase, so it was needed, looks a lit weird. It will grow new

[@pjcullinane2011]

Hi Elise, If you haven’t painted your wall cabinet yet, don’t forget to prime the piece with grain/knot-blocking primer so you don’t see the pine knots through the paint! Strong wood grain/knots will show through the paint over time if not primed correctly!😁. Please forgive me if you already know this, but I did want to share that tip if helpful! My husband is an expert in paint/painting after almost 40 years in the paint industry! Have a great weekend!!!

[@Trissa.33]

Yes I’ve seen that happen, it really spoils the finish.

[@ceeceemac9072]

I love that you use a tablecloth on your dining table. It is such a lovely way to add color and texture to a room, yet these days many people won’t use them-minimalism and all that. Your dining room is just lovely!

[@ragdollmag]

I feel the same way about table cloths. Apparently it's more modern and more casual to forgo using them plus places to go eat food at it's also a cost thing so they don't have to pay to wash/dry them. It's such a shame as it's nice to go out and do special things yet ppl think formal is too old fashioned. Plus some places that just wipe down tables between customers the cloth they are wiping with they don't clean the cloth often enough so I just wince watching them make the table more icky. So, a table cloth actually feels like it would be cleaner. I love how you can get them all different styles so you could go formal or there are casual ones as well and give more personality and a vibe.

[@jetta.silence6356]

I love using tablecloths. I usually use 2 or 3 overlapping eachother for colour and texture. I love velvet tablecloths with fringes. I have one I found thrifting but im looking for more.

[@tamray7952]

Ooooo THRIFTING with Elise 👏👏👏👏👏👏🥳🥳🤩 One of my all time favorite things 😁😁

[@EliseBuch]

Yayyy ❤️

[@mariabryant6582]

I love the mustard floral dress. It looks like something I would have worn in the 1970s. The vintage gold dress looks so much like a dress my mother had in the 1960s. It sounds like meeting the woman was meant to be. So glad you have someone to share your love of vintage.

[@cathyridley3005]

I was going to recommend putting a console table behind the right side of bench. This would allow you to have somewhere to put lamps, a spot to put things from the table while eating dinner with guests etc. Also, this would allow you to push the bench and table more towards under the skylights.😁

[@tasticola]

Hi Elise. Loved this, so very happy for you. I felt sad when in your last video you had tears in your eyes. The ceramic jars with the lids are chinese ginger jars. Very much looking forward to seeing the cool vintage shop soon! x Nell.

[@debbibowen]

The plant (a Hoya) would be great hanging from the beam with a few vines ON the beam. It will climb along the beams!

[@EliseBuch]

I know it will, but I think it's too big tho

[@Prairietallgrass]

Sometimes chance encounters can change your life in ways you never could have imagined 😊

[@lyndaplancarte4895]

Meeting the lady with the love of retro things was what we call "serendipity"....

[@terrifiorelli9819]

Your thrift stores are fabulous. I would be in heaven.😊

[@thesnoopydance645]

Aren't they? Ugh. We barely have one per town here

[@elizabethbradin7099]

I absolutely adore you Elise , please try and never dought yourself and when down just remember how wonderful you are and how much your videos bring joy 😁

[@thesnoopydance645]

Amen to that. I could have written this

[@deborahmulliss6554]

It’s interesting how people turn up in your life just when you need them ❤❤

[@judyfaul8524]

What a blessing to have a new friend and source for amazing Vintage!You deserve this!.. so does she!❤

[@SunshinesART]

After last weeks vlog, it seems this little shop and new friend was heaven sent! 🙏🌞🌻🌻🌻🌻

[@judyderieux8484]

You are so much fun to be with. I was feeling low until I watch this video. Thank-you for sharing your positive outlook on life. Thank-you...

[@annedixon2528]

That Indian wall hanging is a toran-it always goes over doorways, you knew! It’s so beautiful ❤❤!!

[@EliseBuch]

Yes, I browsed it for Bohemian Wonders, so it can be purchased there

[@lunarclock149]

Besides it being a Friday your videos are the best start to the weekend❤️

[@EliseBuch]

Thank you so so much! 🥰

[@heidibarlow6687]

I’m glad you are going to hang the mirror on the wall with the olive tree, it bounces light into the room which is lovely❤ The cabinet will be a great addition.

[@brandimullins3627]

I love how you take such good care of your space and make it beautiful as well. You are inspiring❤

[@LindaSilber]

The countryside is lovely. Nice finds while shopping. The panel, above the door, is very unique.

[@freetobme]

the view of the white rattan chair amidst the pink hydrangae would be a GORGEOUS painting!! (hint,hint) 😁😀

[@OssoLily-ix5vz]

The green dress is the ‘Perfect Color’ with your red hair and porcelain skin! ..and I’m in love with the vintage Wedding Dress too, it looks like the ‘Roaring 1920s’ !!

[@jodiecollins-l1b]

Elise you look stunning in everything you wear 😮 how do you do it wish I had your sense of style x😊 also your home is so cosy full of character xx brilliant xx

[@stone.durfey5862]

The gold dress makes me think of Bell from The Beauty and The Beast. I can see her spinning in dance wearing this dress. Those bags are beautiful, if there were one with just leaves. I might be tempted.😃 So glad you found someone to buy from, that inspires you. And gives a lift to your spirits. Summer is in full swing here in upstate NY, very hot and humid. The kind of days where if you think too hard the heat leaves you either sticky or dripping wet. Like living it the southern mid-west. Which I hated. Thankfully it has cooled down nice at night. Ahh, there is your lovely green, kind of knew you would fit it in someplace and I think it will be perfect. Oh, almost forgot. The mustard floral dress looks especially lovely on you, it is a keeper...and I think is called the baby doll style, but I might be wrong. It's a style I am very much drawn too.

[@luludust]

The new collection is 150% my style! The colors, patterns and 70s in my obsession and I am in LOVE with what you brought in! I unfortunately cannot be buying anymore clothes at the moment 😅 but once I sell a few things I will def hope over to Bohemian Wonders and see what's new! Also, the corner with the bench is looking so good. I can see your vision and I can't wait to see it once it's done! Have a wonderful week!

[@missedwinamae]

OH my gosh, I love that floral sofa

[@terrifiorelli9819]

Gorgeous!

[@connielocke4311]

Hi Elise, I sincerely love all your videos. Your creativity in styling your wonderful vintage pieces is always beautiful and fresh. You are truly gifted! Thank you for sharing your lovely home and beautiful pieces! Have a lovely, blessed and productive weekend. Please take time for some much needed relaxation also!! So happy you've found someone new to work with for your new pieces!❤❤

[@nitahiltner3348]

Good luck with your shop doing better!!!! Love the cabinet.

[@Angela-g9e6f]

Yeah, basically this video was a plug for your business…again.

[@rikkemeek1506]

​@@Angela-g9e6f Of course she is going to talk about her business thats what her content is all about🤷‍♀️

[@blainey73]

That green is always so perfect on you! Compliments everything about you!

[@maibritton2882]

The bench: consider buying 4 body pillows and cover them with your favorite fabric and attach ties to wrap around the bench. Also. consider building two long tables that would fit behind the bench. something like what people put behind their couches .

[@pearlas6943]

Happy that you've found a friend with the same passion for vintage, would love a little tour of her place. Love the super cute cabinet, look forward to seeing it painted. Great funky pieces for the drop this week !✨️

[@christinebeavers9913]

The little blue jar with lid is called a ginger jar in ancient times it cared spices and or salt. Now you can use the just to look at or put flowers in them they come in a lot of different sizes

[@kdog9104]

I love your videos Elise, been watching since your dreadlock days. You have a divine energy to you! much love xx

[@jennifermanian1420]

I love youe painted corner bench. You have such a sense of style. Painting it made all the difference.

[@annettemurielle]

You looked lovely in everything! The green dress looks like it might be from the 70's. The mustard dress was so cute on you, not your usual style, but you're branching out these days. Yay! And that blue blazer is fabulous! So glad you've found someone in your field to work with and I hope it is a very joyful and prosperous collaboration. Congratulations! Can't wait to see the finishing touches in your dining area! ❤❤❤❤

[@RobCoghanable]

As a guy ,probably one of the few , I have to say your voice amidst the flowers is calming, glad you have newness in your life. Love the fringe jacket.

[@EliseBuch]

aww thanks!

[@emilyrose9004]

I actually love to watch Elise’s videos in the morning with a cup of coffee because I find them very calming as well. It just sets the tone for the day and leaves me inspired to create.

[@thesnoopydance645]

Welcome to Elise's lovely space on the internet !!😊

[@brendalyn73]

I love how your room is coming together! I look forward to your videos every week. Your hydrangeas are beautiful. 🌻💗

[@robine916]

My grandmother had a few of those jars. She called them ginger jars, and said they used to store spices in them years ago.💕

[@trudiegordon6327]

I was thinking the cabinet would look lovely in a pale lilac - so soft on the wall and delicate.

[@mariawhetstone7558]

You are a beautiful old soul much respect for your journey ❤

[@savannahd1457]

That 1st robe is my favorite! I can't wait until it hits the shop!💕

[@savannahd1457]

I wear L\XL, bummer. It's a medium

[@uteb9622]

This Vintage shop is georgeos!! Your Look is so good. Fine Elise! 😊👋

[@sharongibson1161]

The skylight is fabulous 👌 ❤❤

[@elizabethtassonecuprunneth7882]

I think the vintage embroidered needlepoint pillows would sell really well for your USA customers. Those are harder to come by in the states in such gorgeous floral patterns. The smaller floral bouquet real vintage paintings would also be a big hit. You seem to have them everywhere in your thrift shops but they are hard to find here in such great quality and vintage romantic design

[@ellenrawls7557]

Your vision for your dining room is coming together so beautifully. I love it. So excited to see the shop and all the wonderful things that will be there. Your videos are the first thought in my mind on Friday morning. I enjoy a cup of coffee and watching, it is so calm and relaxing. Now I am going to visit your web shop because I saw a lovely purse I would love to have. I am hoping it is still there. Have a great week and I'll see you Friday🌷

[@gailryan1035]

So glad you found a friend to work with, I love your clothes. I'm plus size so I can't buy them but I enjoy your joy at finding pretty things.❤❤

[@tammyroyal7547]

Hi Elise!! I think the plant will definitely look good in the corner!! The green dress on you looked beautiful!! Loved the embroidered bags!! Glad you found someone that could help you in buying vintage!! Take care sweet girl 💚❤️😊

[@samwright8599]

I really liked your big hanging plant. I think she will thrive in your space. I'm so glad you met an equal. 🎉 cannot wait to see the cabinet with all your beautiful plates

[@maureenmunro2826]

Love the mustard yellow dress! It’s my favourite colour and it looks good on you. And the gold dress is amazing! So happy for your new partnership, it’s just what you need!❤❤

[@thesnoopydance645]

Hey Elise....I been so busy lately but also I am saving your videos to download and watch while I am on a plane to go visit my kids. Just wanted to let you know, I'm still here and 💛-ing you.

[@andriapd]

Good day from California High Desert. I'm so happy to see you so happy today. First of all, I love what you are doing with your dining area. It is so you and I appreciate your steadfastness as you present your decore taste to us. You are so inspirational, and I'm so grateful to have found your channel. I'm so inspired to continue making my High Desert Cottage into what I want it to be. Love the vintage line. Keep up the good work, Elise.

[@mariannegoins3610]

ELISE. I LOVE THAT YOU FOUND A NEW FRIEND. I'M EXCITED TO VISIT HER SHOP WITH YOU. IM ALSO LOVING THE NEW CABINET.

[@heatherburrill]

I can’t wait to see how the whole room comes together. I love how the large mirror defines the cocktail area and you will have such a cozy dining area that will open up to a larger table when needed. Such a great use of space - love to see how this slowly comes together as you find just the right pieces for your decorating vision. 😊 until next time ❤ enjoy your rainy DIY weekend fun 😊

[@kathleenyates-mu1iq]

Your home is really lovely, the calming vibes from the plants are just what the doctor ordered! The foreo thingy sounds really cool too! I haven't tried that one yet but it sounds soo relaxing 😊

[@traceyyoung1592]

Very groovy baby! Loving the outfits and the singing brings back good memories 😊SUPER FUNKY AND GROOVY💕💖💕That gold dress is beautiful!!! Cheers from Oz 🦘

[@blainey73]

That blue dress is beautiful and I also love that you selected a dress that is a little larger. It reminds me of the outfits from a show called Designing Women (in the US) that was from the 90's.

[@denisemeredith2436]

The Retro Shop sounds like a good collaboration. The stool is gorgeous. I loved your new cabinet too and it will look lovely in its new green clothes.

[@pamogle488]

Your garden is like a dream. Lush, soft colors, green. In Oregon, we still have 3 months of nice weather to enjoy. But I still feel rain splashing around my ankles!

[@tracey8506]

What wonderful news 😊 Your dreams can continue ❤. Love all the new things.

[@MaryBeth1965]

I am happy you made a new friend...always a good thing! 😊

[@sallycormier1383]

Yes to the mustard dress!! I was having flash backs to my high school days with your groovy collection! Also I own many of the Indian long tunics that I wear as dresses with a lace full slip or skirt under(I often find them without the funky balloon pants). I love seeing you smiling again!!! I remember you being disappointed about that box of so called vintage and lamenting the availability of vintage stock. Then look how you run across that vintage shop with lovely owner who shares your passion. Coincidence? I think not!!❤

[@wendywebb1583]

Almost cried when you started cutting the hoya. 😢

[@pattiedavison4298]

So Beautiful 💞 I love thrifting with you it's one of my favorite things to do everything looks Stunnings 🔥😮 thanks you so much for sharing with us all 🌞 have a wonderful evening and weekend 💞✨️

[@lillianwilliams5510]

Ginger jars or spice jars or dried rice or cookie jars

[@tammieparrishmiller3669]

I can hardly wait until next time to see what you've come across on the country road! I love to find little out of the way places like this! Good luck if you decide to do a collaboration with her!

[@lornagoodman1891]

The mustard floral dress was my favorite! 🤩 And that Indian top. was gorgeous ❤

[@katemoore6249]

I can see the excitement in your face talking about your new friend with the vintage items!! I'm so happy for you.

I absolutely love the stool and the cabinet! Can’t wait to see it painted in green 🍀

[@julietheis1468]

Loved the video Elise, So happy you found someone to share your passion with. Love your place! So much light and happiness ❤

[@ildiko1vt]

Oh you bought a Hoya, just like mine that is winding above my windows. Looks like a variegated one? They do flower and the flowers smell amazing! (i see that someone already said the same things) When I adopted my plant (which is 20 yrs old) a lot of the branches broke off in the move. They root very easily, but they are slow growing. I put some cuttings in my window boxes that are outdoors right now growing with my geraniums and coleus. Have fun with it, but be careful not to over water them. I have two other Hoyas of different leaves. One I purchased online has heart shaped leaves, while the other has very small leaves.

[@nadinemaurer1148]

Always look forward to your videos on Friday. You never disappoint. Enjoy your weekend. Can’t wait to see the cabinet painted❤

[@annpricey3934]

Elise, I’m so happy for you! Life works in mysterious ways, doesn’t it? It’s amazing that when you were feeling discouraged with your business and path in life, you met someone who really confirmed for you that you’re on the right one. Follow your heart, always. ❤

[@juppaustria2924]

Hello Elise, your dining room turns out to be so cosy, and I am a fan of the color theme I love orange and green and by the way the wallpaper in your bedroom is so lovely - the birdies🤩 thank you for vlogging💖💖💖

[@janclark1894]

Sounds like a plan. wishing you a beautiful and successful adventure with the business.

[@francymurphy2887]

Always look forward to seeing your new videos and projects ❤❤❤🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷😊

[@karenv525]

The little round china jars in the thrift shop are Chinese ginger jars. You should Google that plant and see how much light it needs, cause hanging in the corner might be too dark for it. I'm so happy you've found a "vintage minded" kindred spirit, that's great. Have a lovely week friend.

[@Amacott99]

That gold dress is absolutely stunning ❤❤Love the new cabinet and the vision for the dining area.

[@helengarland9079]

Loving the corner dining area Elise it looks so cosy and pretty .You look lovely in the last outfit Blue is so your colour.Beautiful video and i love your garden ,good luck on your professional journey 🙂🤗🌺🪴🍾🥂🍹

[@emilyrose9004]

I’m so glad you got a cabinet! When I saw that empty space all I could think about was a cabinet on the wall. I love watching the space transform. It’s turning out beautiful!! Also very excited to get a peak of this retro shop and the endeavors to come with it. Beautiful video as always!

[@aliceinwonderland.2080]

Hi Elise. I think your garden is so magical when everything is in bloom- really beautiful. I think your new wall cupboard is perfect and I’m looking forward to seeing the retro shop when you next visit and those bags were gorgeous.💖🌸

[@anaapodaca8328]

You requested Suggestions: run your inventory on a computer screen where it would constantly display the changing items. Place the screen hanging on the ,inside of the street walk window. Where the items can be seen from the walk way ( You know! When one walks away from the computer screen and the favorite photos circulate).

[@AnneSmith-mu2ph]

The little jars a ginger jars ,you can put whatever you like in them

[@EliseBuch]

To me they look like urns, so they are both pretty and kinda freaks me out a little ☺

[@judith4158]

EIise, that yellow/gold dress is exactly late 1950's, yes I'm old but I remember that style so well. It's gorgeous, I wonder if those who dress authors for period performances use your site. If not they're missing out.

[@pomme800]

Ahh Elise ! Happy news for you this week 💛:)) I like your new cabinet on the wall ...the banquette seating is even cozier with it Also....nice vintage finds ..."that gold dress"... but the happiest of news is you meeting a "kindred spirit", it was serendipity! That expression ,"kindred spirit" comes from the Anne of Green Gables series of books..a person who understands... without you having to explain. Someone who you feel comfortable with right away, secret soul sisters....

[@dianebaker5243]

The story about the lady and her vintage shop sounds really lovely, glad you found the shop.♥️

[@Lisa-sp5if]

Oh, I’m so glad you’re going to put the mirror on the wall that you are! It will look so so so good! I really appreciate your vibe!❤

[@Lisa-sp5if]

Oh Elise… I just finished up your Vlog and I am just thanking God for his provision in your life… He is good and he’s worthy of praise! I love seeing your smile and I absolutely love what you were doing with your house! The cabinet is fabulous.❤

[@ildiko1vt]

That's wonderful about your meeting up with a like minded soul. I was just thinking before you mentioned the woman, that perhaps your future lies in creating more of a vintage shop for yourself than what you have now as a boutique. COOL! Good luck with that venture! PS...the Hoya likes indirect sun from an EAST window.

[@lakehousemama1955]

I loved the mini dress on you its adorable.

[@alexia6133]

Lov, lov, lov the neutral color of your bench and think this would be perfect for your cabinet as well. This way, when entering the room, the eye will be drawn to (colors of) the content of the cabinet and the lovely surrounding objects / fabrics / colors, instead of cabinet first.
