You thrift for all the right reasons: history, aesthetics, textures. Most of all, you have a talent for putting it all together. And best of all, you don't go running for the chalk paint to neutralize and take the character out of the piece.

@@leftcoastrevivals my cats are naughty. They climb over everything eat plants and my big boy pushes things (or sits on them) out of his way. Yeah i yell and 20 minutes later they are doing mischief. I had to throw away a couch that i bought a few years ago from Salvation Army that was from The 20s or 30s 1900s. My boy made hole on bottom and pulled out horse hair stuffing and burrowed himself cozily inside for his afternoon naps. I don't know how to maintain my stuff other than not displaying it.

It is quite creative, isn't it? Just borders on hippie but not... I don't know what word to give it. Not eclectic... not antiquey but so classy. I guess you have mastered a style that is all you. Bravo young lady. Bravo. Hard to impress me but you have. I ABSOLUTELY love just everything & especially the way you have merged it all blended it all together. How did you learn to discover a true treasure when you find them like say the cat? It is cute, but obviously it's more than just cute. Did you go to school & study art antiques?

Love your living room. And I think your teal sofa and mustard yellow chair compliment each other beautifully. Especially with your new avocado green rug in between them. They all slide right along one side of the color wheel. Gorgeous.

I love how everything does not perfectly match yet it all goes together 😊

I personally love all the different colors, way better than shades of white and beige.🌈😁

I think my favorite thing in this room would have to be how happy it makes you. You have this beautiful glow when you talk about your finds. If I had to pick a material favorite it would be the teal sofa hands down. I love the style and color. Another really good video!

I’m like you, I thrift everything in my home and I have some beautiful pieces that I bought for pennies on the dollar. It’s the only way to go!

So glad you made a channel. Your style and decorating is amazing.

I love everything, but I have loved your gold velvet pillow with the black pom poms for so long, I had to make one for myself! I was very patient and searched Goodwill and other thrift stores for a dress made from gold velvet for months. I finally found one, paid $6.99, cut it up, bought the pom poms and voila. A beautiful rectangular gold velvet pillow doe my couch. I love my Laura pillow! I'll have to send you a picture. Thanks for inspiring me so much.

Super video, thanks for all the ideas, especially the gallery wall with a theme.

I think your house is beautiful. I’m like you, I don’t do new. My taste is more British 1940’s because I like dark furniture. We bought a wartime suite a couple of years ago for £20 and I’m still in love with it 💗

That’s my goal, everything thrifted. I have a Barbara Barry sofa I thrifted. It was 1800 and I had put it on layaway and when I went to get it it was a 75% off sale day and they honored that. So I got the side chair that matches and paid like $550 for both pieces. The sofa is gorgeous 92” suede and twill and down filled. I have two lamps that I wish I knew who they are by but I live them and looking for art now. I love your mustard chair and the credenza.

Oh so beautiful. It's very well done. So cozy looking. I'm a Vintage Maximalist also so I'm drawn to this particular look. Yours is really sharp... I need to do a refresh!

I can’t express how much I LOVED this vlog!!!! I love the way you think, the way you express yourself about your treasures.... this is me at antique stores... I clutch treasures to my heart as well... a true kinship with you...Thank you so very, very much... Definitely and without a doubt a new subscriber! Blessings!✌️✨✨

@Lola Montez the couch I bought is not vintage. It's probably late 90's early 2000's. They likely bought t then passed away shortly after. Point I was making is the price. . My pace is a mix of 1970-80's to around the mid 90's. I know they pay more on the East coast. I used to see prices in magazines. I was thinking I should haul it there to sell! lol I'm older and disabled now so not buying much anymore .Downsized a few yrs. ago. But I sure miss the hunting and buying.

Your home is such a treasure trove of memories and I love that! The mixture of textures in your decor is hands down the best! My favorites are the grain sacks and velvet pillows, but it’s all SO good 😊
