Thrifting Treasures: My Top 11 Must-Haves & Home Styling Ideas/Repurposed Vintage Finds

[@minajones1635]

With so much husband-bashing going on today, it was refreshing to hear you speak so highly of your husband. My husband encourages my constant decor changes, thrift stores jaunts, and crafting ventures so I’m with you. I agree, that frame was stunning! Great thrifts and upcycles!

[@CanterburyCottage]

Thank you, Mina! We both have great hubbies who support our passions. Mine always finds something to do while I browse around stores.

Unfortunately I didn’t break mine in right. He lived with his parents until he was 30 so his mother had him by the apron strings. We’re in our 70’s now and he’s still pretty set in his ways.

Great finds, Sherry! I, too, have The Lincoln Libary. It belonged to my parents. 😊

My husband complains about everything I do because he doesn’t like change which is pretty common in men, but he gets over pretty quickly

Dear Cherry. As I am German I can tell you about the small book that you found. Yes it is German, written in a very old scriptart. The first page at 1:19 says: "Christ - our salvation - complete prayer book for Catholics" I also love old books. You have made a great find! ❤ Greetings from Germany, 😊

[@CanterburyCottage]

Thank you so much, Anni! I really appreciate your translation-a book of prayers! ❤️

[@funny_anni9194]

​@@CanterburyCottageI bought an old bible from 1870 last year. It is a very much used piece. I love to imagine how many people have read in it an found peace with it (although I am not religious). But it even existed during the war Germany against France that ended in 1871 and in World War I and II. It is so special to me to have such an old piece.

[@greatestever6738]

​@@CanterburyCottage I thought it might be Catholic, but I wasn't sure. We found older religious books in my in-laws house when they passed away. I really treasure them.

That framed book cover! Perfect!

[@alicejump2290]

We just love the “husband” stories and how he spoils you, so moving the fireplace seems just right! I am sure you sometimes think about the piece you left behind, I once passed up an Art Nouveau type fairy figure lamp base! Your video brought it to mind! I also had my all time favorite lamp broken at a family party, they bought a beautiful cut glass one to replace it! I couldn’t tell them I didn’t want it, but lived with it for a few years! Blessed days!

Hi. The book is a collection of prayers and devotions to the Holy Heart of Christ. The Name of the book is "Christ our Lord". It is written in Einsiedeln a place in Switzerland with a very important Benedictine Monastery. Greatings from Germany. I love your videos and as you pronounce so clearly, they help to improve my englisch.

I realize not all husbands encourage their wives to decorate how they want to, but mine is a gem. He does like "functional" pieces on the counters so i accommodate his needs but it looks pretty too. I love your vintage dog; it reminds me of my dad's collection which i loved. Blessings Jenny

Hello Debbie! I got married in 1987. I had a wedding dress with a big bow on the butt-so 80’s! I did not know that Blue Willow was sold in grocery stores. I’m sure your collection is quite valuable today!

[@JacquelineGarcia-ds4vz]

I have always loved the Fragonard painting, The Swing, despite it's scandalous story. What a nice gift from your husband. My parents and my aunt and uncle had that same vintage sewing/magazine basket. I remember an eagle was attached to it. Those kinds of "early Americana" items along with pewter and primitive ware were popular during the 1976 Bicentennial. It is all showing a resurgence again, as we draw closer to the Semiquincentennial in 2026.

[@CanterburyCottage]

Hello, Jacqueline! Mine has the “shadow” where the eagle was once attached-someone must have removed it. As a little girl, I remember what a huge deal the bicentennial was. I don’t know the story behind “The Swing,” but I will be looking it up right now!

[@yzolakitchi]

What a sweet and attentive hubby you have! The picture is stunning. I was thinking about your wooden sewing box/magazine holder with three legs that maybe it just needs dully down a little. I think the golden banding is quite bright and modern looking compared to the dark wood. Maybe some general scruffing up of the whole piece would be enough, rather than fully painting it? Every time I catch a glimpse of your fireplace tiles, my heart sings! Still can't believe the images are just decoupaged on. Fabulous!

[@sandraford4235]

The book cover and print love it ,I have a vintage paint by numbers in a frame similar to that frame .It was left by the previous owners in our previous house .

It's always a treat just to browse. They have someone that stages each room and has an incredible eye for decorating. Even if I walk out the door with three vintage Bingo cards, I am thrilled! The way they had them displayed on a mantle with fall items and white pumpkins was stunning! Your videos inspire me the same way. 😊

[@nycmermaid3158]

The lovely framed print your husband got you is from the painting “The Swing” by the French Rococo artist Fragonard. The lady and dog print is from the painting “Lady Hamilton as Nature” by George Romney and is in the Frick Museum collection in NYC. Beautiful, and art historically significant acquisitions!

[@gizmo7877]

Oh my goodness, you have such exquisite and timeless taste! And you know how to arrange anything so beautifully! Why hasn’t any store owner hired you to showcase and arrange their inventory?

16:15 Your Delft Blue gin bottle hails from a famous Amsterdam Café called 'Hoppe'. Hoppe is amongst one of the oldest cafés in Amsterdam, located on 'Spui' square in the heart of Amsterdam since 1670. This icon started as a Distillery complete with its own "tasting hall" (which became the café). Because of its precious historical significance this magnificent old café retained and displays their ancient barrels and old vats, from its original days, by lining their walls with them. They have a beautiful Renaissance reproduction painting on the wall, inside, which is actually a recreation of an old advertisement - dating back many many years. This café is essential divided in two, the “standing” Hoppe for the menfolk and the “sitting” Hoppe for the ladies, which is how things were arranged around 1900. Now of course everyone is free to mingle. One of our (many Dutch) political Parties was formed there called: the D’66 Party. (Democratic/Liberal) And our now abdicated/former elderly Queen Beatrix visited there, incognito, when as a young princess, she once went out fundraising, in Amsterdam, with Legendary (for us Dutch) Salvation Army’s Major Bosshardt. Brewing magnate Freddy 'Heineken' was a real regular. And 'Newsweek' Magazine once voted this to be 1 of the 10 best bars IN THE WORLD!

Happy, happy anniversary!!! Our next one will be 54 years! I never even thought I would live that long, let alone be married to the same man that long!!! LOL!!! I love the frame and picture he got you! I love ornate frames too. I ran across a green ceramic shelf clock years ago. I got it because it is green! No, it doesn't work...but the color. I keep telling my husband that he needs to gut it, it has that wiring from the 1940s, so I can upscale it.....I can just see a tiny nest with a sweet little birdie sitting half in and half out......kudos to you for sparking that thought!!!

[@CanterburyCottage]

You would love the US 12 garage sales that are held every year in Michigan at the beginning of Aug it’s 200 miles of sales. I find antiques, vintage, brass for great prices, ppl travel from all over to set up their wares along with the home owners. A lot of ppl rent out their yards/spaces for them. Literally sales everywhere. I have a fantastic husband too & he takes off work on a Friday (when they officially start & goes thru to Sunday) to drive me around. He’s a trooper going to antique stores, estate sales, garage sales with me. But then I do the things he likes too which is getting out in our Ford Bronco & hitting up the trails. It’s give & take 😊 loved everything you found you have a great eye!

Happy Anniversary. And it's nice to hear you give praise for your husband. The last piece from a lamp could maybe be used as a lid on a clear glass vase with a nob attached to the top. I'm glad you were able to fix the blue plate. Yikes on those slippery items.

I’m so sorry about your plate Sherry!! I’ve had something similar happen to me. Well, as far as a broken plate. No lie, this happened to me. I had a beautiful set of Native American plates hung on my wall. My son who was three had a new friend over and they got a ball and right after I said, “don’t kick that in the house you might break my plates.” That’s exactly what happened!!

I love the book cover you put in the frame. And the picture you put on top of it made it look so much better. My husband collects old books. He likes to find first editions. But I live in a small house. And I’ve run out of room for things sitting places. So now I try to buy things I can hang on my walls. We have lived here four years and I don’t have anything hanging on any of the bedroom walls. I do have a picture my husband bought at an estate sale to hang in our bedroom. I just can’t decide where I want to put it. I want to rearrange my bedroom first. My husband just gave me an old box he got from Goodwill, I think. It’s sitting on my coffee table in my living room. I’m not sure if it will stay there. But it’s there for now. We go to an antique mall near our house. We haven’t been for a while. But I will get there soon. I bought a green box that says Kingston Coffee on it. The city I live in is Kingston. And it was on sale so I got a great deal too.

I bought a set of 1915 World Book of Knowledge for $5. There’s about 18 books and in excellent condition. My kids loved them. Thanks for the great ideas.

[@Violet316]

My heart sank when you dropped the Dutch plate. I have a fondness for that kind of plate, my first one was actually accidental. Long story short, I was in the Army stationed in Germany, I took a trip to Holland, and I did buy a plate for a family member, but on our way home the tour guide had a beautiful floral trimmed plate with the typical windmill scene, she said it was to be a prize for whoever had the right answer to her question. The question was, what color is yaks milk, everyone had exhausted the answers, and the guy beside me said no one said pink, so I said pink and won the plate, I have had it since 1982. I guess the lesson learned for you is always put the hanger on the plate over a table, also when you glue it, with hands on both sides apply some pressure for a minute or two, then the crack will be even less noticeable, I have had a few accidents myself.

[@CanterburyCottage]

That’s a fun story, and who knew yak milk is pink! It doesn’t help that I have stone floors, so if something drops, it always breaks! (I actually did put pressure on both sides of the plate while the glue dried; it was off camera though.)

[@janehollander1934]
