Furniture Fixing | A VINTAGE VLOGMAS '21 Day 22

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

It was a real estate heavy day for me but tried my best to fit in some vintage & antiques. I was able to accomplish getting the 12 drawer piece put back together and furniture fixing the top crown piece to the big cabinet we just picked up from auction. Vintage Vlogmas '21 Day 22 is done.

    Excellent call changing out the skirt on that cabinet for casters! They're good-looking and functional. The whole piece looks great!

    AMANDA don’t compare yourself to other channels. Your content is unique and so necessary to the community of resellers and/or interior decorators. XoMacenna is also a favorite of mine, but her content is very different from yours, and that’s great. I think you haven’t realized how powerful and influential your videos are. Even if it’s a quick reel or a 5 minute chat, you are so inspirational. Glad you are taking some time for self care. You share videos at your own pace, whatever day you want to, I will watch it.

    I am very happy that I found your channel. Please don’t stop your KZread channel & your Booth!!! I have learned soo much from you. “Thank You” There are other people who have a Booth & KZread, but they just take us along shopping 🛍 and every video is “ all the same content over & over again “. Basically not teaching anything real. You are showing me, exactly what I want to know about running a booth. How much hard work & dedication it takes & most of all a true Love for All things Vintage & Antique!! You have a Beautiful esthetic. I love your style!! Love how you stage your booth!! And Your shop along videos Bring Something Brilliant Every time!! It’s not going out to antique malls or thrift stores & buying the same type of inventory. You don’t stop when it’s halfway done. You are always determined to redo that booth space until you feel good about it. I Love that :). You have a Great Work Ethic. 😁 👍 👍 👍

It will be something to look forward to and give your mind a break . Good Luck your doing a great job. Thank You for sharing your wonderful lifestyle with all of us .

    Have you considered starting a Patreon? I would definitely pay a monthly subscription for some extra content, a monthy Q&A discord, etc. That might provide a regular income that allows you to cut back on real estate. That's assuming you'd rather work more on the antiques than the real estate. Anyway...loved how the 12-drawer turned out!
