Come Thrifting With Me | finding furniture and decor for my new apartment

I'd call this little thrifting weekend a success because at least we found one thing. Where is your favorite place to go to find second-hand furniture?

    I always keep a smaller tape measure in my purse, 6', great for thrifting and estate sales; a regular one in the glove box of the car, for yard sales and found treasures on the side of the road. I also have 3" x 5" cards in my purse with all the measurements of rooms, certain walls, windows, furniture and color swatches. A buffet or side board, I doubt you're going to find something narrow at 10". I would think 15" -18" would be fine, so what if it sticks out a little bit. The little table is really cute, perfect and looks in good condition - score #1!

    The "half moon" table is called a demilune table.

    Love the salvation army in Portland!! I also look for the thrift shops that support causes-- some animal shelters have thrift shops that use the sales as donations for the animals! Have fun!❤

    I don't think you will find such a narrow 10" buffet. So whatever you buy, it will stick out. If you don't want that, you should put shelves in that space, and create a sort of bookcase. Or put doors in front.

    I think I could go up to 15” in that spot so I’ll keep trying to find something 🤞🏻

    Cool to hear Promises Promises @6:04! That song was a big hit way back in 84.

    Like to see searching in thriftstores, like also the woodcolor furniture, buffet or hutch are always deep, hope you find it

    Why not mix and match the chairs? You didn't get the bronze unicorn?!

    That is pribably rattan in front doors. You don't need to close bar cart lid.

    First of your videos I’ve watched, but while is everything a SITUATION? I do believe you’re overusing the word. Other wise I like the video but please drop using the word by so often, please!!!!
