We gotta big haul, y'all. I'm splitting this one into two so we aren't spending the whole day going through thrifted treasures. Let me know your favorite item below!
Kristen your decorating has more life than most decorators. I love it! This is a fun video to watch
I think you would do so well with a pop up vintage shop! You find the most beautiful treasures 💕 hoping that it happens for you in the future.
Me too!
I came here to say the same thing!!
Kristen, I do a pop up shop out of my garage every two months. I advertise it as a "curated treasures and Vintage furniture." Go for it!
I love this idea! Please scare pictures
Absolutely LOVE this idea! I’ve been considering doing something like this for years, but not sure how to get it across to people that it’s NOT a yard/garage sale. Love your wording!
The galvanized bucket would look really cute. Put some rocks or bags in the bottom to lift it up. Add some greenery from ur yard and pretty fall leaves. Will look really good on ur front porch.
Walk a dirt road ditch to gather tall grasses, milkweed, maybe rosehip stems and for winter cut some evergreen braches to stand in it. You could even tuck in some mini lights.
That linen “dress” would work well cut into stripes and tied onto some jute string to make a fall garland.
Best idea!
Yes. That would be cute!
The wallet is hand tooled. Not pressed. Every line hand tooled! Great finds! ❤
The tall metal canister will be great for fall foliage. Place some small stones in the bottom for weight so it won't easily tip. Then stuff with newspaper or packing paper to desired height so the dried materials show off. The brown pod is a lotus pod and they look great in fall arrangements or even with pine branches and cones. You should be able to find all kinds of dried material, dried hydrangea, and grasses from friends gardens or even along the side of road or parking lot. Good luck!
Your videos bring me so much joy. You’re so relatable! Your laugh is contagious. ☺️❤️
I’d love to see an “in progress” fall tour, and then update us with any changes in a Christmas tour! 😄💛
I'll try to get this out!
The little pot with a handle and hole in the lid that you called a bean pot is actually for steaming single serving veggies in the microwave. And the board with ridges is a "wash board" . This was used before electricity to scrub, wash clothes. Nice Haul!
The wash board she found was decorative. I have two that were actually used. One was my great grandmothers.
I thought the little pot was for individual soups like French onion soup.
The slotted wood piece with the brass plate was a Mail holder!
I still have a similar one from the 70s!
The dress would make a great start for a scarecrow costume!
Put that duck card in a wood picture frame, and it's a great little Fall decor piece, all by itself.
You should pick-up those cute mugs when you see them for gifts! Would be a great gift with a bag of locally roasted coffee or someone's favorite tea!
It’s never foolish to say it out loud and begin to manifest your thoughts. I have a booth in an antique store and I have a Mercari account. You should consider one or both. You have a great eye and it’s fun and profitable. Blessings to you!♥️
Yes, I second the Mercari suggestion!
Good Haul!!!! LOVE the Linen Tablecloth for the girls room!!!! The Big/Long Bucket you showed at the end, you can put this Green Spongy stuff at the bottom of it to give what you put in it Height! I don't know what you call it, but "Florists" use it ALL THE TIME!!!! You can buy some at "Dollar Tree". I've gotten it there before.
I just binge watched your channel in a couple days, i love your content! I love thrifting and garage sales and decorating on a budget. So glad i found you! 💛
Okay where to start. The tall galvanized bucket you can use for umbrellas, the honeycomb thing it a lotus pod. The craftsmanship on the wallet is tooled.
You are beautiful. The brown linen dress is the closest to an actual potato sack dress I’ve ever seen exist. I’d give it a new life as a costume or use it as fabric for a new project.
I so look forward to watching your videos after church on Sundays. Once I get my littles down for nap, I grab my Dr. Pepper and fold the laundry while watching your hauls. I decorate with yellow accents in the spring and summer so I loved "The Yellow Stub" book. Those Harvard Classics were gorgeous too. Thanks for the video!
Over here drinking tea and avoiding housework! Happy Sunday!
I love the boho look of the basket! Great shape and it would be perfect for a plant holder and will be a warmer look for indoors!
Not sure if anyone has commented already but that wooden piece with brass rocking chair was used to mail, bills or other paper you need to keep. The washing board was more for decoration for a laundry room a proper wash board would have been more sturdy and without picture.
I LOVE the pop up shop idea! I’ve been mulling over that same idea.
Thank you for your videos! I just love you. I really love your heart for the Lord and your family!
Thank you so much!
For the tin umbrella holder, an idea would be to find the tassels on the tops of corn stalks and gather a bunch to put in it. Like some others have said, put something heavy in the bottom so it doesn't tip over. Maybe a pretty burlap or olive green ribbon around the top of the tin and voila! I just made a fall wall hanging with a bunch of corn tassels and some branches from our trees that haven't turned colour yet.
You always find the best pieces that makes your house so beautiful!
Love that little wooden timer and wish I could have grabbed that Yosemite hat!
Great haul!! The “Greenery” can be broken up and used in many different arrangements!! I love finding that kind of bouquet together because it offers so any options!! I’ve been looking for measuring cups like those for awhile now to replace our terrible plastic ones!!
Great haul! Loved the leather briefcase, I would have picked that one up for sure. Anyway, fresh, taller branches and maybe some twinkle lights in the tall galvanized vase/bucket. Always a pleasure to watch your channel, thanks for sharing Kristen. Oh and Happy Fall Blessings!
The timer is a good way to turn chores into games with the kids. How much can we put away before the timer runs out? Cany we make our beds and beat the timer. etc. Worked great in my classroom and at home.
we have just started doing this!
Hi Kristen ~ You ladies that video your trips to the Goodwill Bins… the things I see , I feel so bad they are going into a landfill . I think a little Shop would be great. Do you watch “ Julie’s Designs and Signs?” She decided to start selling on-line and she finds homes for all those amazing items. I’m thankful because I buy from her and save the stuff. We don’t even have a Goodwill near us.
Add more branches from around your yard to add to your bucket. OR put plastic bags to the bottom to bring height to the ones you have in it. Nice find in the books! The Blue ones looked nice in the room you were sitting it. Matched the blue/white vase behind you.
How pretty was Ruby’s Copper Pot and the stand it went with 👍. LOL!!!
Have a blessed week ! 🍁🍁🍁🧡🍁🍁🍁
I've seen her channel!
Loved it all.. yes a home tour please, can’t wait. Maybe stuff the bottom of the galvanized pail to give the dry plant height ( it’s cute). Use plastic bags, old paint cans, coffee cans.. skies the limit
That was going to be my suggestion, too. Or pieces of foam/styrofoam. I’ve shoved wads of grocery sacks in the bottom of decor “vessels” before. Whatever you have on hand…maybe even old towels!
Hi. First time watching and am enjoying your thrifting discoveries. I haven’t read any comments but thought you’d like to know that Edna Ferber and Booth Tarkington were both prolific writers. I think both have had books turned into movies. If you are a reader, you may enjoy reading them as well as using them in your displays. I personally love decorating with books. I’ll be subscribing and look forward to more of your hauls.
Get one of those skinny xmas trees for your metal bucket. Will be rustic and adorable in winter.
The tall bucket. For winter I cut pine small pine tree and evergreen limbs for outdoor winter decor. It will last ALL winter. Put on your porch. Put some rocks in the bottom so it doesn't fall over from the wind. Could even put a red bow on it
Great haul! I love all the books and great price! I would stuff bags or anything into the galvanized umbrella holder to raise up and use the pumpkins, honeycomb, and spray paint the sticks black and maybe add a couple larger branches from your yard, painted black, and have a Fall/Halloween decor for now. You could decorate with a small evergreen for Christmas! So many options.
Pop up shop...YES! Maybe start with a booth at a vintage/antique shop while the kids are younger and build your inventory. Just a thought. Tfs! ❤
Love those copper measuring cups! And yes the brass dog is a bottle opener! We have a donkey one with a similar mouth lol. Also, my obsessed with blue and white pottery self is so drawn to those pieces you showed at your thrift!
The “bean” pot is actually to poach eggs in the microwave. I think you can cook other things too but I threw out the booklet that came with it. I bought mine from the Dollar Store years ago.
I recently bought 2 of them and placed them on my hutch. I had no idea they were used for eggs. Lol. Thank you! I found mine at goodwill.
The washboard with the ducks as decorations looked ornamental rather than for actual use. I enjoy your videos. Hi from Australia xx
I can't figure out who is more adorable & cute. You are your adorable children! You even make a gunny sack dress look great. The billfold is tooled leather. The washboard is a decorator one. They actually used to use them to wash clothes on. Back in the day to wash clothes before automatic washing machines became a thing. The tin tall bucket, you could put something under the sticks & things you elevate it up & gather some more sticks. I love your videos, so refreshing you love the old things. I grew up around so much of it. I take it for granted & my things are now on trend!
Such great finds! Yes, this is an egg timer. I have one just like it that is from the early '70's.
Hi Kristen. Love everything you thrifted. I really like the books you found! !
Hi, Kristen. Such great finds. Loved the copper measuring cups! Your house will be beautiful with the Fall decorations. I love using old books stacked or leaning to decorate. They especially look great used to elevate other items. It has been beautiful here in Oklahoma this Fall. Let your light shine, Kristen. Greetings from Oklahoma. Jane Greene
Never, never be sorry for baby toes! They are the cutest!!!
Loved the brass pieces, fun haul! You have the sweetest little family 😊
Just want to say Thank You ! For sharing your adorable family with us along with your thrifting ! You are adorable .
Love it!! You find the coolest things
If you want to use the galvanized container for floral you can stuff the bottom with tissue paper or plastic grocery bags to give it height. The arrangement has potential but I would take it apart, take out the bad and replace with what you have or can find on a budget. Love your finds!
I believe is a good idea to open a vintage shop. I wish you good luck. You can always start on line 🥰🥰🥰
When you were going through the plates, the one with the big yellow/gold flowers around the edge I laughed with recognition. Those were sold at the grocery store back in 1979. With a certain purchase amount you could get them for like .99 each or something ridiculously low. My husband bought a few for his bachelor apartment before we got married. So funny to see that some have survived for over 40 years!
I make dried floral arrangments and when I have something that sits too low in my galvanized buckets like that i stuff paper or a rag at the bottom to raise it up!
Today was my very first adventure at the bins in St Louis! Wow, what a fun experience. It is difficult to live and buy intentionally when everything is so cheap. I had you in my mind though and thought about how you always say it must have a place and purpose! Love your videos so much!
I love that I could inspire you to go!
Get a booth at an antique mall. That's my plan within the next year or so. I will still be able to thrift and go on my treasure hunts, but I can sell as a little side gig. Best of both worlds!
Lots of treasures! Love the books, bookends and the copper measuring cups. When I was very small my dad had a wallet like that... maybe because we lived in San Diego across the border from Mexico? My great Aunt had the fancy chafing dish. I hadn't thought about these items in years, so thank you.
The metal bucket could be cute for umbrellas in your back-porch. Separate the dried items -the pumpkins would be fun in a grapevine wreath. The honeycomb thing would look great in a pot with mums and kale. Fun finds!
I agree, was looking to see if someone had already commented it :D
I love the books and I probably would have bought the copper pots that your daughter showed you. I’m a bonafide Christmas decoration junkie, so that Santa would’ve been coming home with me! I think maybe you should bring the pumpkins in your tin pot up and then add some color. Maybe you can super glue the pumpkins, so that they’re more visible? I love thrifting!
I love the haul. I have the complete set of Harvard Classics too. I honestly think you should do a pop up shop, you have wonderful taste and you would sell out…🌻
Hey girl! The ceramic pot with the hole in the top is for cooking foods in the microwave. The thing with the ducks on it is a decorative wash board. 😊
Hour glass with the sand. Your so sweet not to let vintage items go to land fills
The wash board was for washing clothes but the one you saw was for decor. The item with brass was for mail.
For the galvanized bucket raise the foliage up with flower foam or rocks and then I would take out some of the leaves and add in some orange/yellow/red colours (maybe flowers) and I think it would be gorgeous!
I wonder if that old tool box would have could have been used to put plants in on a porch just a thought great finds awesome channel happy fall it’s spring here in Australia 🤩🦘🇦🇺🌸💕
Kristin
You are such an inspiration and so funny! I literally laughed out loud last week and this week on ur comments on your brown “dress”. I think it is a costume but who knows! I look forward to your videos every week. Thanks for sharing your gifts with us decorating challenged viewers. Have a great week!
You could do a antique booth....i love what you find! I get my thrift thrill thru you ...we had a old real thrift store 5 min from us that i could go every week and dig around and find something almost every time ...they shut down 😭
You have a good eye for vintage treasures, if you have the time, you would sell out, I'm sure with a pop up shop. Great stuff today!
You found some great items at the thrift store. The honeycomb looking items in the tin floral bucket are lotus pods.
I would use the tall galvanized pail for canes or vintage umbrellas
How about for Halloween you dress up as a bag of potatoes. Your husband dresses up as a baked potato, and the girls dress up as tater tots. ( or sweet potatoes).💗
Hi Kristen! Love your videos..so fun to watch with all the greats finds. With the tall bucket just add some crumpled newspapers to raise that natural bouquet . And then you can go for a walk a pick more naturals to fill out the bucket. Simple and lovely! Have fun!
Great idea!!
Check your old books to see if they’re first additions. If there is only one copyright in the front, they might be a first addition and potentially valuable. Edna Ferber was a very well known author back in the day.
Hi Kristin…great items! Someone may have already said…but the wallet would be called tooled leather. If I’m wrong surely someone knows for sure. Thanks for the video!
The bucket would make a great umbrella holder at your door. The dried flowers could go in another container.
Put a few rocks in bucket to weight it the wad up newspapers to fill around a jar holding the stems. Moss on stop of newspapers would work. The hard brown pods with circles are from water lilies...? Lotus pods I think. Maybe som twiggy branches after the leaves fall would add to your arrangement.
You could belt it add jewelry a cute shoe and rock it finish the arms or intentionally frey them like the hem. Or 2 you could make a beautiful lumbar pillow cover either way i love it!🤎
Fun time at Goodwill. The books are lovely! Do you plan a house tour soon? The background of your home looks so lovely! Love your potato sack dress!
Pop Up shop would be an awesome idea!
Love the books and those copper measuring cups! Who am I kidding … I just loved it all!
Good afternoon Kristen. What a haul. What can I say? The content of these budget conscious videos keep getting better and better. TYFS and have a great Sunday and an excellent week. 😊😊😍😍
I think your linen top was probably someone's shepherd costume in a Christmas play! It's cute, though! 😉🙂
Oh Kristen a big NO NO to the sack dress...sending love from England 🏴
Yes, you can do a pop up shop. You would do well. Your style covers lots of different people's style.
The galvanized bin would be pretty in an entryway holding those long umbrellas. The “greenery” in my opinion, should be tossed! Hahaha
Love the video. The haul is great. You would do great doing a pop up shop! Love them dress!
I would love it if you did a pop up shop,so,any times I see stuff you find and think”I’d love to buy that!”
I am enjoying your show so much that little item you picked up and asked what it was, is a washing tub to wash clothes; I am 82 years old and I remember when I was young we used to wash our clothes that way .
I'm sorry for the loss of your family member this week. 🥰
Your basket is beautiful 😍 You did see many amazing items on your haul shopping. 😀
Nice Haul Kristen. WAITING on that tour! Yes, that sounds good. STTB
Simply loved the wallet, the basket and the books
My dress like that was for a costume..cave woman...wore fur pieces on my ankles, carried a big bone as a club..lol The prices in your area seem to be lower than some others I watch. I want to do something like you are thinking about . My neighbor went the booth rental route as is making about 1200.00 a month! I have never resold in a shop or done ebay...but I feel like I have lots of treasures that I need to sale. You are young..you can do it. My friend spends a lot of time going to rummage sales, estate sales and looking through her friends houses.
That brown thing is a lotus pod. Your bucket and dried floral will look beautiful if you raise it up and undo it so that it is not not in such a tight bunch. Good finds.
You can use that for Halloween and dress up like The Paper Bag Princess (a children's picture book by Robert Munsch).
Your DRESS/COSTUME peice is cute over your sweater...I would just hem the sleeve to give it a finished edge.....just find some more dried greenery for your tin....can use that at Christmas time too....with evergreen boughs and other Chritmasy things....and LOVE all your books!!
Awesome haul, Miss Kristen!
I love all of the books 📚!!!
Separate the white pumpkins and brown natural weed (with the seed holes) and anything else salvageable into ziploc bags. You can use this items in future wreaths/arrangements. You can use the bucket for so many things, holding wrapping paper, packing paper, umbrellas, etc. If you don't know what to use it on right now just wait, you will. Beware of spiders. I've come across spiders in Goodwill dried flower arrangements. You've been warned, LOL!
Although you make that dress look good, I do find it kind of frumpy. Your haul was awesome. The galvanized bucket, is my favorite. I would Lose all the old dried stuff, keep the pumpkins. You need a fresher, crispy look and much taller. At Christmas, a small cut tree, inside just leaning against something would make the house smell great!
Please don’t call that sack cloth a dress🤣
The goose on the top of the washbord would be destroyed. So it is more of a decoration. The pop up shop would be great during the Nebraska Junk Jont!
The galvanized bucket would make a cute umbrella bucket. 🌂
The tall tin you showed at the end of the video could be used as a container for displaying walking canes and umbrellas in your entry way.
The bean pot, is a microwave egg cooker!
