Laura, I'm Polish that was living pretty close to Krosno ( it's a city in Poland). The piece that you have is pretty unusual in color as most of them were dark, white and between. They used to be " it" in the '80 and were kind of expensive back then. Mostly people were bringing them as a gift to the US. As a kid they took us to the Krosno factory from the school and I was fascinated what you can do with a glass. Fascination with glass and become a glass artist went away, once I learn how dangerous it is. Those artists are dying at a very young age because they develop problems with their lungs from blowing the Christmas ornaments, etc. I'm still an artist, but the glass thing...I said no to that. Thank you for your positive videos and the knowledge that you are sharing. I always learn something new, even that I thought when I was 12, that I'm the smartest navel of the world. LOL. To old to denying that there is always something new to learn! Hello from Illinois!

That is terrible about what it does to their lungs 💔 I grew up in/worked in the stone industry and the health issues from breathing granite and marble dust is terrifying now that they know how dangerous it is 🥺 I hope they have found ways and implemented safety into glass art blowing to keep the artisans safe ❤️ Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!

I have a red vase/raised bowl like that yellow one but I got it for $16.99 from HomeGoods many years ago. I don’t think that yellow one was at all different from my red one.

Here is possibly an odd idea for your pantry doors. What would you think about putting them INSIDE the doorway opening? That way they could open into the pantry and wouldn't interfere with the exterior door's opening. You could easily raise them 2-3 inches, but hang them INSIDE the doorway frame. I think the offset would allow for a good visual transition between the two types of wood and not have them competing with each other. Certainly worth considering, or at least trying them out that way. I know it's not the regular way to set in doors, but it might look very cool. Wonderful video, and I'm always amazed at what your thrift stores offer up. Incroyable!

only problem with that is unless you flip the hinges, the shutter bar will be on the opposite side, ya you would have to change those, it may not work inside if she has a light switch there also.

Like the shutter doors as well. To the tippy top is a great idea but wondering if they may appear better if you place the hinges on the inside of your pantry area instead of. In your kitchen. It will make the area appear more roomy with the open threshold in the pantry doorway to go through. Just some thoughts. So jealous you have such great options to shop!

If the wood matches, you don’t notice it. With it not matching, you notice the incredible details, like that GORGEOUS door!!! WoWee!!! 😮 ♥️ 😊

I love the color contrast of your wood door and shutters!

I love the repurposed shutter doors for your kitchen! The best interior designers say don't make things "matchy matchy" so you are fine with combining wood tones. Plus it expresses your more eclectic style! Having the doors raised a bit from the bottom will help when you are sweeping and mopping the floor.

Thanks for your kudos to Habitat! I volunteer at our local one in Loveland Colorado and have loved my interactions with the other volunteers and adding to our community with wonderful and affordable finds. ❤️

I think it's a good idea to have doors on the pantry. It's the 'messy' space where all the ugly packaging and small appliances live. People always have good intentions about having a beautiful pantry and decanting all their foods into pretty containers and keeping ugly mixers etc tucked away but in reality it's just too hard to maintain and even the most organized pantry turns chaotic every now and then - especially if you're entertaining! The mixed wood tones work great and I think it's a good idea to lift the doors and have a gap at the bottom because that's going to make cleaning the floor easier if there's enough space to get a swifter underneath.

Leo Salazar is a well known Santo carver from Taos, New Mexico! His carvings are collectibles! Nice find for $6!!

Keep those cool shutters! Yes, raise them up a bit (who cares if they are 'short' on the bottom?) and I think they'll look cool next to your new door - I love the two different woods by your other door. Plus you love it so don't second guess the choice! It makes you happy! Maybe while you're busy cooking or putting groceries away, keep the pantry shutter doors open, then just close them when you're done. They are so cool!!! Score!

I just wanted to say you are so kind and sweet to let us into your life and space 😊😊

This was my favorite episode so far. I learn from you every time I watch you. Thank you!

I'm from Poland. I remember when these Krosno art pieces were popular. They were in every household. Then, they become out of date and passe and now desirable again. They are very sentimental to me, but I can still see the 90s in them and my mum hiding it because she wanted something more in fashion 😂

I love the idea of the louvered doors! Could you add some wood to the bottom of the doors? You have the most beautiful thrifted decor pieces. You have such a gift for selecting and staging items. I truly enjoy your videos ❤️😊

I’m very eclectic too, and I love the different colored woods together. I also like the warmth of the shutters on the pantry. Very pretty! ❤️

I'm definitely not a glass expert but I believe that the rooster was Murano. You are so sweet to leave that for someone else. I wouldn't have been able to resist it!❤️

That table is just beautiful, wow! I think you made the right choice with the folding shutter doors. You can always just keep them folded open until you don't want them open :)

Love the shutter doors. They'll give your kitchen another dimension, especially with the ceiling contrast. Can't wait to see them with the beautiful door once installed. Bravo!

Love the contrast between the shutters and the door. It creates an interesting visual moment. Funny how those shutters have made the rounds. My house was built in 1958 and someone used those exact shutters for closet doors in my bedrooms. I think they make attractive doors.

Your videos are always of such exceptional quality Laura. Your very steady camera work is greatly appreciated. You bought some really great pieces. The jewellery was amazing. I love that you found those pantry doors that match your existing ones in your home and am all for the mix of wood tones. Much 💗 from Western Australia 🇦🇺

I REALLY like the contrast in wood!😉

I’ve collected Murano clowns 🤡 since the 8th grade (1993) but not an expert on animals. I probably have 40 clowns all found at antique stores!

Pier 56 on the waterfront in 1970s seattle was the home of Trident imports..we used to buy those wooden boxes quite inexpensively...we also bought the beautiful printed bedcovers to make long peasant dresses and room separators for small apartments 😏❤️

Hi Laura ,greetings from Perth Western Australia. The shutters are great for the pantry. With the louvres you could open or close it without having to actually close or open the doors. During summer things could get a bit warm in an closed room. Thus opening the louvres will help with air circulation. Size wise,you could ask the guy who is fixing the kitchen door to add additional trim to the louvres to make it look complete.. That's my idea. BTW I love shutters .all my windows in the house has shutters. They are pricey but worth it.❤👍

Yes to the pantry by folds. Replicate the trim/casing as the windows shutters. It will look like it has always bin there and fill in the door opening. Mount the pantry doors to fill to top of the door opening.

I like the new shutters color with the door.

Hi Bestie! It’s your BFF from Mpls, Amy! It is crazy to me how we are similar as I also keep jewelry in an antique letter/type box! I was laughing when you showed yours! I say skip the shutter doors. They could potentially scratch your new back door. Get a beautiful vintage textile and use as a curtain. That would add warmth to your space and a pop of color! 🥰❤🎉 Amy from MN

Monk statue looks like St. Francis

Yes to the shutter doors! I love the contrast of the back door with them. The house is so beautiful!

For my fairly large collection of MCM teak, I use Howard's butcher block conditioner. It's food safe, so I can use it on my vintage salad bowls, spoons, etc. Re-conditioning wood is such a pleasure! I love it!

I definitely like the shutter doors. It blends so well.

Raise the doors, leave gap at bottom. You could leave doors open while you use things from pantry. Close doors when you have company. They look wonderful.

The shutter doors will be great. Closing the pantry, when need be, would be worth it.

New subscriber here and I’m so glad I found you. I love that you choose quirky pieces and love MCM as I do. I adore that twisted green knotted glass piece and that table! 👏👏💗

I too am eclectic and I love the mix of the wood and shutters. It’s going to be beautiful!

Love the shutter doors.. it will match the rest of the house.m

Keep the shutters! It’s a great look by your other door. I am convinced you manifested that round, twisty glass piece that you saw on a tv show, that’s how it goes!

The "Adam & Eve" piece was on the creepy side for me.

Everything looks so good when you oil the woods and display 😊

Nice haul, Laura. Your array of items in your space looks great.

Love the doors with the contrast! Fantastic find!!!

If you keep the shutters, I wouldn't raise them. Instead, I'd add the same type of trim on top that's around the shutters by the front door (I'd also add the trim on the sides). You can buy those at home improvement stores and stain them any color (of course you'd want to stain them the color of the shutters). But, for me, I'd just make the pantry look so awesome that you'd want to be able to see inside it. So, no shutters for me. I'm sure it'll look great whatever you do.

Love the two colors/styles of the shutters and doors. Beautiful!

The leaf pendant is glorious. I agree about the pill box -- it's perfect for lip balm or solid perfume!

What fun! This reminds me that I really should visit the 3 Restore Centers near me. Great catch on the wooden Monk!

Can you talk more about how much you got the jewelry pieces for at the pawn shop

LOVE the shutter pantry doors !! 🤗❤

Really like the pantry doors and wouldn't worry about the different wood tones. The idea of hanging them inside the pantry to open inwards is worth exploring but could be complicated. I absolutely love the square shaped light turquoise pendant - beautiful!

I love the different colors of wood!! Yes, the pantry doors would look wonderful ❤

I love natural wood too. I think I would move them up and have a space at the bottom.

Oh Laura that's an amazing jewelry storage space ❤❤❤

I know this video came out quite awhile ago but I’ve been catching up on Laura’s older videos. I learn something new on every video watch. I also want to give a shout out to Earth Breeze laundry soap. I’ve been using this product for over a year and given several packs to friends and relatives. No one is paying me for this, I just love this product so much and I was thrilled to see Laura promoting it. It cleans really well and it’s totally true that you can adjust how often it’s mailed to you very simply on their website. Yeah to less plastic. Thanks Laura!!

27:14 I love your Afghan lapis choker!! I have one like it 🤗

I love the shutters and the combo of wood/finish colors. Definitely agree on raising the shutters up to cover any top gap...and just leaving A bottom gap for circulation + looks! Great finds today!!! 💓

Love the wood contrast on your doors.

Laura, maybe you could even add a piece of trim, like a narrow cornice, to the top of the entry to the pantry. That way, you wouldn't see the gap at the top, and you wouldn't have to have one at the bottom either. I really like the accordion doors there, and it does tie in with the ones you have on the windows! Score!!!

Go shutters! I think the different wood hues are interesting enough and pull the items throughout your kitchen together. So fun and better than all the stuff in your pantry being a focus! (Unless you put cabinet doors on the shelving…)

LOVE the contrasting wood tones

Really like the contrast of the door and the shutter doors. For me it's important to keep as much of the original house as possible.

At first I thought no don't have the two tones wood but when you showed how it looked in the other room, yes! They look good together!

Love your videos&your sytle! Gave us a peek thru to small room where U want shutter door...if that didn't work how bout putting them over the opening/closet in that room&leaving other open for convenience not sure on functionality&a quick glance just a thought...love the shutters either way👍

I definitely think the light wood in the door will compliment the darker shutters

Amazing finds, such a pleasure to watch ❤ I like the relationship between blonde wood and the darker one - it gives a character. Your videos are not only fun and interesting, but they also are informative - I always learn something new, thanks Laura!

Add a strip to the doors at the top and bottom; then stain to match. You can probably get the same width boards. I think wood glue would hold.

Laura, I would install the Shutters Doors in the pantry. You have a beautiful kitchen💜

I like the doors. I like that they tie in with the existing shutters. I say go for it.

THE Natural wood looks very good between the door and pantry door

I think the pantry doors were an amazing find and meant to be!! I think it will match your house perfectly and look beautiful with your new door!! One you finish your pantry it will become busy visually inside and you will be thankful to have a way to rest your eyes by not having it open all the time!! My opinion of course!! Love everything you found, your studio space is incredible!!❤❤❤

That leaf pendant I believe is a piece of Bixby Mine chocolate tourquoise. If it is, it is worth thousands of dollars. Bixby is very rare. Definitely have it appraised at a southwestern art studio. Gorgeous!

Laura...all the trees in the forest are different shades .....you have many pieces of forest in your home and it looks FANTASTIC. Very cozy, interesting, textural and eclectic. I love it😍

Hi Laura you can use three of those panels instead of 4 that way you can open only one instead of four doors the one with the knob the one in the middle and then one on the end I think that would look nice but it's up to you

I like the mixed woods. It's like mixed metals. Also, you have great taste, so I wouldn't worry about the way you mix things. As to your pantry doors - I don't know if it will bother you more to open a door every time you get something from the pantry, or if seeing the open pantry 24/7 will bother you more. That's a personal choice. Besides, you can always change your mind.

You need the bifold doors on the pantry! Leave one open when in use.

If the antique road show ever came to your city what piece(s) would you take?

Leonardo is the son of Leo Salazar of taos new mexico...he used cedar from the cedar trees of northern New Mexico to carve...there are pictures on his website of monks and saints ...one was 895$ and the other was $ 1,250 ...the son Leonardo is a member of the Arts society in Santa Fe

Love the contrast.

THE HFH ReStore is THE best place to get used furniture. Their starting prices may be a bit steep, but if you go on a day where they reduce furniture from 25-30% to sometimes up to 50% or even 75% off, you can get some incredible deals. Other thrift stores like Goodwill and Salvation Army and others never have as much to choose from as HFH ReStore does. When I opened my small booth, I bought all my display furniture from them and spent very little.

Yeks. I love the table. I love your taste .
