Thank you so much for your sweet comment, Erin! Have a blessed weekend and week ahead! :-)

The cherry skirt would look good as kitchen curtains or an apron. The green patterned teapot and cup.. beautiful! I, too, would of bought it. 😊 Tablecloth beautiful as a skirt! Your editing and music of your video is superb. Thank you for sharing.

Aw thank you so much! The cherry piece was actually an apron and I did get it (just forgot to include it)! I'll try to show it sometime in a future video!

I hardly ever shop at goodwill anymore. The prices are outrageous for used and to me is not real thrifting prices. I have been finding a lot off FB marketplace. I love your videos! They are always so comforting and peaceful. Refreshing.

Thank you, Chrissy! Yes, the prices have gotten ridiculous for most items. Thankfully they still have discount days for certain color tags so that makes it a little better. ::-)

I'm so glad I found your channel. You are so knowledgeable and I really enjoy the calm music❤

Seeing this made me miss the days of baby-wearing and nursing. But I definitely have those memories stored in my heart as I watch what incredible adults they are becoming. You found such cute things at Goodwill, even if it was picked over! I heard a tip from another thrifter : to go to areas that are affluent and shop those Goodwill stores. But when I do that, the prices are crazy high. Usually, tablecloths here are between $1.99 and $4.99, depending. But making a skirt out of one is so genius! Yours turned out so lovely!! 💜

Thank you so much! Yes, I've found some of the prices at Goodwill to be quite off-putting but sometimes you can still find a deal, especially if that color tag is on sale that week. Thank you for watching! :-)

Oh that skirt is so pretty and flattering on you. The bow in the back is perfect

Thanks, Tracey! It really does look like a garden piece, doesn't it? I'm sure it would rot though, so maybe the porch. :-)

Lol - when you first looked at the blue print table cloth at the store, I thought it was a skirt. I thought what a cute skirt and then you said it was a tablecloth and I thought, well, okay, it will make for a pretty table cloth. Great choice into making it into a skirt! lol! I can't imagine what you are going to use that white wooden ??? for. I can only think to hang a boston fern in it. Love your home! And your baby is sooo cute!

Loved this video!! I recently found and original oil portrait from what I assume was Victorian era based upon dress and hair styling. It had a beautiful frame on it and while I have no idea of whom the subject is, I adore it. I agree completely about finding/thrifting your home to create a curated and uniquely “you” home

Some pretty high prices there! I’m sure Homegoods would have the same style of basket at a comparable price. That’s kind of disappointing since many people thrift as they are on a tight budget & also seniors on a fixed income. That will be me too. When I retire, my shopping trips will be few & far between. The cute 2 peg shelf was adorable! I’d hang 2 tea towels on it.

I would use the white wooden piece as a lantern with either a battery operated safe candle or a real candle with a glass hurricane cover. Definitely can see it at Christmas with evergreens and candle. Very nice😊
