MAKING OVER AN ENTRYWAY ON A BUDGET | Part 2: Thrift Flips, Reupholstering, & Picking Paint Colors
It's Part 2 of the Entryway Makeover at Ed's house as we attempt to transform his dated space into his current style of Light Academia, Mid-Century Modern, Japandi. In today's episode, we take a trip to several Habitat for Humanity ReStores in the Hudson Valley to look for secondhand items that we can thrift and repurpose including a vintage light fixture, kitchen cabinets, and an ikea Hemnes shoe cabinet.
We thrift an antique stool at the White Elephant Sale in Connecticut and go fabric shopping at Mood Fabrics in NYC. We compare, contrast, and thoroughly review 3 rugs: the Amber Lewis x Loloi Morgan Denim/Multi Rug, Loloi II Adrian Collection Rug, and Lauren Liess x Rugs USA Rosewood.

Rule #1, if your car is NOT in front of you, behind you, or on your side within reach of your hand, it is NOT your car. She was right.
Never leave your cart unattended in any store for any reason! I agree no eating except for small children having a snack or a drink 🟢
Thank you for highlighting Habitat ReStores in your region, and for supporting our mission with your purchases!
Thank you for all that you do!
Omg that is so close to me! I have to go. I'm in South Jersey. There are 2 nice antique shops in Woodbury.
Happy Hunting! 🙂
My heart screamed when you painted the wood on the door. I truly hate when original wood work it painted like that.
I know what you mean about painting original wood. I wouldn't normally paint the wood, but the door is going to be replaced soon-ish, so we figured we'd have some fun with color.
I love the English cottage in The Holiday. Megan, would you fix the link to the tray? It's the same as the curtains. Thanks!
Yes, fixed. The one in my video is from Pottery Barn. It may be too pricey, so I linked a few similar, more affordable options as well. Thank you for catching that!
@@MegantheWild Thank you!!
@@suesteudle7705 No problem. Thank you for telling me and for watching 🙂
Something’s Gotta Give.
I have accidentally plundered other peoples carts, thinking it was an employee put out cart. Of course, when I realize my mistake, I quickly apologize and move on. How can you know? They need to make customer carts a seperate color, size, or shape than employee put out imo.
RE: colored carts. That's a good idea!
I liked the decor from its Complicated. Great location too.
Same. Beautiful inside and out
Something’s Gotta Give.
Love the fabric!
Thank you!
Keep your cart with you , because obviously people in the wild do not know equities.
You put everything you had in your cart back on the shelves? Why?
I must have misunderstood.
@@Kathywelch-xm3rd ? I bought some things, but not everything.
I have some location suggestions for you in Warren County, NJ and eastern PA that maybe you know about but haven’t posted a video on yet. If interested, let me know!
Definitely interested! Please share.
@@MegantheWild Definitely check out Five Acres Flea Market in Warren County, NJ. They have a website. Only opened on the weekends. I believe from 7am-3pm Saturday and Sunday, although Saturday is the better day to go! I will comment again for PA spots by the weekend! Hope to see you at Five Acres.
@@athenap4297 Thank you, Athena! I'll put this one in my Google Maps. We hope to get to PA this fall, so I'm making a list. 😀
Great video! Now I’m definitely going to the Morristown and denville stores you mentioned. Thank you!!
You're welcome, enjoy! Wishing you a happy hunting ☺
Recently came across your channel and loving it! Love your commentaries. Sometimes funny. Sometimes informative. Always good. And I really appreciate the location of thrift stores information you provide. I’m also in New Jersey and seem to have a hard time finding good thrift stores (for personal purposes versus resale as maybe the thrift stores around here are good for resale). So thank you so much!!
Aww, thanks, I'm so glad you are liking my channel! Let me know if there are any thrifts in NJ that you'd like me to visit.
A rule she made up because 1 - she got caught 2 - it embarrassed her 😂😂 you don’t go thru anyone else cart @ other stores🤦🏻♀️😂
Lots of great stuff
☺️
I say. NO EATING IN THRIFT STORES. AND. MY TIP FOR YOU. ALWAYS keep your CART with you at ALL TIMES. people have no respect for other peoples carts So if you can’t go in the aisle with your cart SKIP IT and come aground again. That is what I do
RE: skipping it and coming back. Good advice
Can’t believe this is your first video that popped up on my feed, I love NM style.
Glad you found me 🙂
“It’s Complicated” is hands down my favorite Nancy Meyers’ movie for storyline and decor. Meryl Streep”s house and garden are just dreamy even before the renovation. I could easily see myself living comfortably and cozily there. Great video!
Same, I love that movie and the house. Thanks for watching!
Thank you!
Once again... I absolutely love watching your video!!! Im always out and about in thrift stores. If you have something in your wishlist, let me know what it is. I'd be happy to watch out for it. Enjoy your Sunday! Hello Ed and Coco. :)
Thank you, you're so sweet! I'll think about my wishlist. I'll tell them "hello", have a great weekend! 🙂
Absolutely not ok, to rummage through someone else’s cart!! That’s just rude, in my opinion.🙄 The other thing I notice alot, is little kids eating with their mother, and then touching all the clothes & linen items, getting them all dirty & sticky. Thats a BIG no, in my book……Ha Ha!!🤭 Come on parents, watch your kids!! Also, I wanted to tell you, how much I love all your videos……Keep ‘em coming girl!!🥰
Awww, thank you! ☺️
I would love to see the market. Love your videos. Would you ever consider doing a DIY on how to make a print/painting more moody? I’m no artist and I have 2 painting that I would love to use, if the colors are just too bright for my listing.
We are definitely leaning toward going to Brimfield. I appreciate you letting me know that you love my videos. 🥰 I hadn't thought about DIYing a painting to make it look more moody, but that could be interesting. I'll add it to my list. Thanks for watching!
Ditto to this!! Please!
@@athenap4297 haha. It's on the list
If its in your cart , its yours. Some people act very entitled or just plain have no manners !
💕🩷 I enjoyed this post very much! This is my first visit, but I’ll be back for more. Your narrative was interesting and informative…and you have a very nice voice. Thanks!
Thank you so much! ☺️
I was wondering if you have an idea of what made the Nancy Meyer aesthetic recently explode on u tube? I have seen this style and these movies on a few blogs now. I love it ,because I love her style. But what triggered this movement?
I wasn't aware that the Nancy Meyers style had exploded on RUclips, lol. Apparently, RUclips's algorithm hasn't realized I like her enough to suggest similar videos. 😕 Nancy Meyers' home was featured in Arch Digest not too long ago, so that might be the reason why she's top of mind. It is also possible that more of her movies are available for streaming right now, so more people are aware of her.
@@MegantheWild Well now I am on the look out for her books. thanks so much.
I feel that the younger generations are missing that traditional feel of their grandparents/parents home over today’s disposable furnishings. All of these examples have a common thread- personalization. Younger people are keeping up with trends over traditional long lasting timeless design. Not one of these homes look outdated. They exude warmth and that feeling of belonging.
@@katieseaman7284 100%
@@katieseaman7284 Plenty of older people (50 and up seems to be what most would agree aren't whippersnappers) are like that too. "Keeping up with the Joneses" is nothing new. And you'd be surprised how many whippersnappers DON'T fall into the category you're trying to put then in. Age has nothing to do with it.
You do definately NOT go thru someone else's cart. You can politely ask if the cart belongs to someone, but you do not just start going thru and taking what you want, just because you want what they have! Do you do that in a retail shop...I think not! Manners ppl, manners! As for the eating, please...no social skills. I would say a beverage would be ok unless otherwise stated at the front, but again, manners! Seriously!! Have ppl forgotten their manners?
Very fun to watch!
Thank you, it was fun to make!
My favorite is the English cottage from The Holiday. It is absolutely my dream home.
That IS a good one. I love an English cottage. So cozy.
Good effort and looks so much better. Why don’t you give chalk paint a try? It’s far more forgiven with marks/imperfections. I highly recommend Annie Sloan chalk paint.
Thanks. I’ll look into chalk paint if I ever try this again. 🙂
Don’t leave your cart. You would not have had a problem if you had kept it with you. Walking even a few feet away opens it up to others. Just be careful. There are crazy people out there and they will take what ever they want…
I have 2 antique round top tables I will switch out with a couple side tables with drawers in my living room. That was on my mind for a while, you gave me inspiration.
I love this! Thank you for sharing.
Love this!!
Thank you, me too! 🥰
Hi Megan. What towns were you in? I have never seen these thrift stores in NJ.
Everyone knows cart etiquette. It’s your cart until you release it completely after your purchases are paid for and emptied into your vehicle. Walk away and just ignore your cannot reason with crazy. She probably was embarrassed and forgot the word sorry.
Nope. No shopping out of other peoples carts. Beautiful items selected and I love your styling. Your beautiful table cloth is actually Battenburg Lace. 😊
Thank you! And, yes, the Battenburg Lace! I looked into it. Thanks for letting me know.😊
No to eating or drinking unless it’s a child and if they drop something, it is picked up. No to picking from someone else’s cart. I accidentally started shopping from someone’s cart once and quickly apologized when I realized it wasn’t a cart from the store.
Of course we're not going through other people's carts . Something was wrong with that lady. Can I go through her grocery cart or her TJMaxx cart...
Eating is ok if ur sugar drops to low, dont shop out of someones cart, but sometimes people fill a cart then leave it.
"You put crickets in it" "Why?" 😅
😂
Dressing rooms went away with the Pandemic. It was an excuse for them to not offer it any longer. The ones I go to have torn them out and made it an employee rest area. I don't think theft has anything to do with it anymore, since they just walk out the doors anyway or the emergency doors.
I hoped they would reopen the dressing rooms, but it does not look like they will.
The ‘cricket box’ made me laugh, when you were discussing it before showing the item. That is not what I imagined, being English - it is something men where to protect themselves when playing the sport.
haha. Well, let me know if you see me pick up that type of cricket box 😉
Just found your channel and love it!
Thank you! Glad you found me ☺️
I think the carved one that looks like wood is a gourd. Also, I bet many of the beaded and glass ornaments are made in India, (I have some very similar)!
She had no manners and definitely not educated by her parents , old as she was we all know she is wrong, how fresh .
Great video thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
