I appreciate your heartfelt advice, "When you get things, don't just get junk". It goes with my favorite advice, "Fill your home with things you Love".

Oh my! We have that phone booth! My husband and I both worked for the phone company - back when it was “ma bell” . Long before cell phones

Ahh! I long for the day that my home looks like yours! You have such a great eye for clean, classy and beautiful!

I love watching how you decorate your home. You really have a talent. Most channels just show you what they bought but not how they use the items. I will definately watch all your future videos.

Sarah, you are my favorite blogger. Love what you do. I now only buy white sheets, I have the cream tasseled velvet pillow cases like you, they are on my sofa, I put embroidered white napkins folded in triangles across my fireplace mantel,I bought a thrifted rocking chair and painted it black, I am collecting transfer ware when I can find any, I purchase thrifted baskets and I have painted most of them. I don’t have a style yet, and not brave enough to sew curtains, but you certainly inspire me to try new things. Thank you.

Curtains are the easiest thing ever. Can even be made with bed sheets. Use the wide top hem as the bottom hem on the curtain. Make a rod pocket of whatever length on the other end. Unless it’s directional print. Just as easy to make from scratch.

I agree but the heavy jar above the bathtub makes me nervous. Could chip/ Crack the tub, break the jar and/ or spill a whole lot of Epsom salt. Maybe it was just staging for photo.

Regardless, the chandelier is beautiful and I like those unusual corner (and vignette) settings. Nice basket, pretty weave. I liked the wall paper as a contrast or mix with your painted/stenciled pattern. I have a smaller 3-paneled (Holiday decoration screen) that is ornate, bejeweled with bits of colored mirror, and textured patterns that is permanently sitting on top of my flat topped French entertainment armoire. So if you have a buffet or a space big enough, you could put your screen on top with an arrangement of decor/vignette.

That first dress is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing your triumphs as well as your challenges with us. I appreciate the human nature side of your videos! So many times all we see are the perfect end products and it looks so, so easy...until I try it and get discouraged! Just subbed!

The wall screen is built in a zig zag fold to add stability when placed on the floor. It also folds up to carry and replace it in another area and to have it go into a corner more effectively.

Yes I have a couple of them in my studio. Fold it in the zig zag pattern and it will be more interesting to look at!

Keep the globe as is. It would be perfect in your daughter's boho bedroom. A friend of mine found a globe somewhere, painted it & modge podged the continents on it in her daughter's favorite colors (internet helped) and it looks so cool in her room. Her globe is hot pink with lime green and orange continents. Ask your daughter if she would like the wicker globe. 🙂

My favorites were the big jar and the chandelier!! I love these once a month thrifting videos.

When I Googled “clear garden ball” a lot of items came up that could be used for the globe - I love having to search for that perfect piece to finish DIYs off..TFS

Best part of the whole video...the spray painting tree ❤❤❤. Everything is beautiful.

My heart dropped when I heard you say you bought the Asian hand-painted screen for 6 dollars! I sold these in my aunts shop in Carmel back in the ‘70’s for $300-750 and up…how things change and trends come and go. These screens were meant to be hung either flat or slightly folded as you like on the wall or standing on a tabletop. Thus the front/back fold feature. And the paper backing was an Asian generic print. Yours looks to be in pristine condition with no tears or gouges in the paper. Love your channel❤️

Yes, the "screens" are actually Japanese wall hangings and are meant to hang flat. My mom had one large one in the dining room when we were growing up-- One of the treasured pieces shipped from Japan. They traditionally were expensive, not mass produced, and Japanese families passed them down to their children, so you got yourself a deal!

Well, because I'm a short woman I love things hung "lower" than many ppl. think is correct...so.. I think the chandelier looks great.

I love all your finds! I really love the Japanese panel on the other side too.

I really hate plate hangers for walls. I had collected some plates and found the cheap medal/spring hangers to just not be for me. Here’s what I did and it works perfectly. I squeezed a dollop of bathtub chalk at the rim area, on back of plate, then press into the caulk a medal pop can ring. The rings have that tiny hole so make sure the chalk oozes into that hole. The big hole then loops over your wall nail. Mine have hung for years and NEVER have come loose. If you ever want to remove it, a razor blade would cut the chalk right off. ***Let caulk cure a couple of days, before hanging.

I found a screen just like that at goodwill last year! Makes the perfect barrier to keep doggo out of living room when needed (he’s half mastiff but has no idea he could just barrel right through it). 🤣

This series is so helpful! I found 2 rolls of Waverly wallpaper at a thrift store yesterday and I love the idea of using them in a closet!

The Japanese screen is a phenomonal buy. It is called byobu in Japanese. Japanese do put effort on finishing things nicely. I have used the back of mine for Zoom calls, conference calls and it worked like a charm. I added a very large plant to the back/behind and it provides a bit of depth too. FYI, there are brackets that slide onto them so you can hang them on the wall.

I would use the L.A. wallpaper on the back of the screen over the painting. Smiles!

I love the wicker globe! So many fun things!

Nice finds! I bet the jar is from Crabtree & Evelyn....I worked in a shop in the 80's that carried Scarborough through them and we had big lidded jars like that to hold product.

Or only paper half way up.

For the globe you could use a giant clear glass Christmas ornament and modify it. I might even use mercury glass paint to age it

Scarborough and Co. was a Crabtree and Evelyn line, a store jar used in retail, Aberdeen Heather was one of the scents in that line.

love the globe they way it is.

Even if you left the Lego dresser where it is, the Chandler would look great at the lower length. I like the look of the lowered Chandler.

I like both sides of the screen, while I love vintage items I appreciate Asian decor too, as it helps taking a few Asian Art history classes lol. And really like how you repaired the chandelier, there's a reason why I avoid chrome, but you did an excellent job getting the gold on their, it has a more natural look as if it was meant to have the gold.

used to collect globes until I downsized. I LOVE that wicker globe and would have grabbed it!

Here in the UK we call the blue putty that you attached the plates to the wall BLU TAK..... and if some of it sticks to the wall then use a little ball of the same stuff and rub the wall with it and it comes off!!!! Love your videos.... Never been to the USA but its my top destination to visit and I'm obsessed with Charity Shop or Secondhand Store finds so I'm in absolute heaven!!!!!!

You could cover that shelf with a larger piece of board if you don't like it papered. Personally I think it is kind of interesting. Maybe add some unique hooks. After all that work, try staging it before you rip it out.

Lyme Regis is a small coastal town in Devon, UK . It’s beautiful and it was the back drop to the French Lieutenant’s women with Meryl Streep. Just a bit of trivia for you 🌿🤗

The gold-edged pinboard and glass jar are my faves 🤩 Good luck finding another roll of that wallpaper - it does look so pretty in the closet!

I cannot believe you found that screen for $6.00, OMG! I was just looking for one tonight. You can do so much with it!

The dresses are gorgeous and I LOVE YOUR STYLE

You might want to upgrade the poster putty to museum putty. It’s better quality and will not cause any damage to the dish 😊

I so love that you have a Lego dresser. My children, now grown with children of their own, had masses of legos. Wish I had thought of your idea instead of bins and giant tool boxes! Just love your style and ideas.

Nice video - I love your advice to "not buy junk"

nearly right on the Scarborough pronunciation, softer sound on the end. didn't Simon and Garfunkel record Scarborough fair? well here in England, where Scarborough is of course, this is how we say it, give it a listen xx ( actually forget that, they pronounce a hard 'o' too lol, try the Sarah Brightman version) xx

For the globe, go to a local glass blower, take the globe with you and ask if they can blow a piece of glass To the dimensions and specifications. I have found that artisans LOVE to get commissioned orders- it lets them push themselves and use their creativity. AND you are supporting local artisans who help make our world more beautiful!

Cute dresses, l love too wear dresses in the summer also.

Really enjoyed your video on this wet Sunday evening in France. You were right, your Scarborough and company jar was made in the eighties by Crabtree and Evelyn, the mother company so popular in England but in fact started in the States. Crabtree and Evelyn shops have now all shut but apparently they have opened as an online store from Singapore. But your jar should become more valuable in time... Thank you again for your video.

I love using that putty for my dishes. Love the dresses and the chandelier...looks a lot like the one I purchased on ebay years ago. 💕

Loved all of your finds and that you immediately shared your ideas in how to use them in your home.

Yesterday I found a church plate and was super excited. I plan on styling it near my church pew! Thanks for all then inspiration I’m obsessed 😍

Everything that you design looks so classy yet so effortless! I buy things that I love,sometimes with a spot in mind [which doesn't always work] and sometimes not. My 1st thought for the jar was in the bathroom. It all looks great!

I know its over a year since this was posted and am just watching it now. An idea for the lovely screen: place it in front of a fireplace when not in use i.e summertime? It almost looks like lace from a distance.

The wallpaper is from 1992!! I used to be the Home Furnishings Expert at a shop here in Richmond, VA!!! I sold tons of that one, it was really popular. Wish I could tell you where to find it now but very unlikely to find full rolls of that anymore as most people hung it long ago.

Hi Sarah! I noticed the chandelier is to low….Just Kidding hehehe! I have the same one. Oh my Gosh! It is Beautiful spray painted Gold. I even like it that length with the dresser. Such a Beautiful room’s and idea’s! During the video, I said it’s like Crab tree & Evelyn and then you did. Wow such fun! God Bless!

Love your videos, soo creative 💕💕 Fab chandelier 🥰 🥰

The basket is gorgeous!

The wallpaper looks beautiful. I know you'll find more to finish it.

Scarborough and Company was acquired by Crabtree and Evelyn at some point and they had a collection of scents that included this and my favorite Nantucket Briar as well as 2 or 3 others. They had scented soaps, perfume, talc and potpourri. The potpourri came in these containers. Mid to late 1980’s it was Scarborough. I don’t remember at what point Nantucket Briar scent went to Crabtree and Evelyn but not all the scents were continued in the switch. Nantucket Briar was discontinued a few years ago. I still haven’t found a new scent I like as well. 😢

Just wanted to make another suggestion for standing plates up without a channel: I like either the clear acrylic easels or cushiony grip shelf liner (or maybe it's actually for keeping your rugs in place on the floor). I cut a small rectangle out and place it where I want the plate to go and it sticks remarkably well with no residue or cleanup afterwards. I do this a lot when decorating my baker's rack for the different seasons or holidays.

If you are still on the hunt for the wallpaper, why not try a different pattern that would coordinate with the stripe? Perhaps a floral or geometric pattern in the same color tones. Start the new pattern in the corner on the wall with the window, and it will look intentional.

I have two of the Scarborough jars...held potpourri.

I would paint the poster board trim Black.

By the way.... With regard to the Laura Ashley wallpaper.... Laura Ashley the company closed recently hee in the UK unfortunaty but their clothes and home goods were excellent quality and their wallpaper designs were always very classey.. I have always used their products and have never been dissapointed. My most extravagant purchase from them was a tan leather little reading armchair which I got fir £600 in a sale a few years ago and it is so pretty and vety comfortable.

The hinges are called piano hinges. They are used so whatever you install them onto can bend backward or forward. Check out te keyboard cover on an old piano. Thus the name. Sometimes you are not completely sure which way you may fold a project; therefor, piano hinges make for an easy problem solver. They are very strong.
