I love seeing the world of used items through your eyes. Being an octogenarian I’ve seen most of your “finds” for ages but through your eyes they take on a new beauty. Thank you for that.
Thank you Jandra!! Your kind words are so appreciated! 🥰
They are curtain rod holders! But it’s great to repurposed them to serve as bookends!
I agree my Dad collected coins ,so when one tarnished he called it Toned…I like that too
So sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother. We planted roses when my Mum passed so every year its a beautiful reminder. Plant some lavender in front of your Lilac for extra scent/flower arrangements - which you are very good at. IRELAND
Your mother is smiling down from heaven as you announce your future plans 🤗🤗🤗. I can’t wait to see your booth Mrs Meeker 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Aww, thank you sweet friend!! I sure hope it comes to fruition! 🤞❤️❤️❤️
I have similar pieces to your "book ends" but mine were sold as curtain rod holders. You hang the pieces on the wall and then thread the curtain pole on each end through the round openings. Mine have gold eagles on them.
Do the booth if you can. I've had two of them in the past and they are so much fun. Granted I did it as a hobby. I never made any money but just enough to make the space rent and to keep buying small items. To make money at it you really have to hustle and turn over products. Especially large pieces. I say go for it. Trust me you won't regret it.
I love the drapery sconces and the bust.
LOL the "wood bookends" are curtain rod braces. They're meant to bridge or support long runs over windows. You mind find more at Bed Bath and Beyond.
You’re definitely correct. These are curtain rod braces. However, using them as bookends is a great idea and would definitely work. I’d paint them and age them and they’d look amazing. 😊
I came here to say just that.
You could also add hot glue to drip on your candle white glue would most likely match.
Loving your channel and your home is amazing.
Stacey
Haha!! This does explain the holes. Still going to use them as bookends though! 🤷🏼♀️
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT HER CHANNEL IS THAT SHE IS SO RESOURCEFUL AND USES EVERYTHING SHE HAS AND MAKES IT LOOK GREAT. GREETINGS FROM TEXAS. 🤠👍
WOW Love the Candles
No big but it’s pronounced like Vogner. Great finds, you have a great eye. I love tarnished silver.
Ahh, yes that is what I am hearing. Thank you Jennifer! ❤️
So many people call these ornate wooden and other things with the holes in it books ends. Those are for big wooden curtain rods to fit in lol. I have one that I use as a piece of decoration because it has really pretty roses on it but they are for curtains.
On your battery candles, use a hot glue gone to make you melted candle runs. I’ve done it successfully.
You could actually let a real candle drip onto the battery ones. That might work
Oh, I may need to try that!! ☺️
3 brass trumpet shaped candle sticks for $75.00? Run the heck outta there!
They were $24.95. I did get my own set at a garage sale for only a couple of bucks though. 😏
Always like your video's, tysm, those bookends are actually curtain rod ends, but clever idea to style your way
Hi. The composer Wagner is pronounced Vogner (☺️retired music teacher…)
1st time watching. Great job! I’ll be viewing more.
Great finds! I would drip hot glue on your candles to make them look drippy. That way you can add as much or as little as you want.
Krista. You can make the oil painting of the floral still life “moodier “ to match your decor so you don’t have to replace it with a print. I’ve used “Old English” and Waverly dark wax (that you use over chalk paint) over the area(s) you want to darken. Start light and let dry. Reapply til you get look you’re after.
Thank you Barbara!! Those are great suggestions!
Not corbels but they are large curtain rods holders. That is why there is a hole in each. Smart of you to repurpose.
Your Wagner bust is pronounced Vogner. He might look more aged with the rub n buff, too. Ty he glass container as ith silver top looks like an old fashioned loose face powder container for a lady's dressing table. Very pretty.
Yes, I was thinking the same about the little container! Looks like something that would have had powder and a little poof in it. Thanks for watching! ☺️
You can use hot glue and drip it down the sides of the candles and then paint them white.
Love the tarnished silver pieces too. Love that little fireplace mantle.
I wonder if, until you find what you really want, maybe add crystal bobeches to the mirrored sconces. Love your look!
I may have to do that!! Thank you! ☺️
Wow you have fantastic taste! I love thos3 eagles! Great haul I think they pronounce Wagner with a”vee”! ♥️♥️♥️
Love the music!
I like it to look tarnished and old too.✨ Lovely finds, sweet friend.😍
Thank you Sarah!! ❤️
Omg I saw that sniffer before you zoomed in. Love.
I alllmost bought it because I don’t have one but the wood color was just a little off from what I normally go for. 🥲
That mantle ARGH….I love it !! 🖤🖤🖤
Oh sister, me too!! 😍😍😍
For the gold mirrored sconces try a product called tim holtz alcohol ink. It is permanent, unless you spray with alcohol. It comes in tons of colors.
Also by Tim holtz is foundry wax. It is permanent, has more texture and comes in the aged colors you are drawn to.
The silver topped lead crystal dish is a steal. My mom had one had a perfume puff in it years ago.
Tfs.
I actually JUST got some alcohol ink this week for some DIY ornaments… maybe I’ll have to try it on the back and see what it does! ❤️
Your style is wonderful! Love your finds and your plans for you beautiful home. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Excited to see the new videos.
Love all the treasures you found! 🤗
Thank you!! ☺️
THAT WAGNER BUST 😍 such a good find! I’m jealous!!!
Wagner pronounce Vogner?
Wagner would make a great Ebeneezer Scrooge for Christmas decor! :) Great find.
Use your hot glue gun to put drips of glue on your candles. Then paint them to match your candle. You can make them as drippy as you want.
Beautiful store
Love all the finds. I can never ever find anything at my thift stores for a dollar!!! I have one of those tall silver bud vases and use it on the fireplace for those tall matches. Its perfect for them.
What a great idea ! Thanks for the tip ! Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays from sunny Central Florida ! ☺️
I have some curtain rod holders that are very similar to your bookends in the thrift haul, that might be what they really are. Love that antique mall!
Great finds. Lovely
Those aren’t book ends, the’re for curtains but they can be bookends! Thinking out of the box!
You got so many nice things. His room is going to be adorable. It is kind of sad that they grow up so fast.
Thank you!! Yes, it’s so bittersweet watching them grow up! Wish I could keep him tiny forever. 🥹❤️
Krysta, you could try using a hot glue gun to create faux drips. Love all that you do. Merry Christmas toyou and your family. xo, ~Dena
Beautiful finds!! Thanks for sharing, so fun as always!! I thrifted a candle sconce just one, very similar last week looking for a good place in my son's room. I too am so greatful for the remote candle sticks 🙌
I love all your finds.
For those Amazon candles, I bet you could drip hot glue on them too to get a dripping look
Great Wagner Bust (pronounced Vogner :) )
So many great finds! Love that little fireplace! Great idea to open a booth once you've filled the house. I wouldn't want to stop shopping, either. Yes, Wagner (pronounced vogner) was a composer. He was Hitler's favorite. : /
Thank you Diana! I’ve still got a lot of house to fill but I’ve been working on a stockpile here and there. ☺️ I knew he was a German composer, that hadn’t even crossed my mind! 😳
Get a real tapered candle at like g.w. and burn that candle and melt it on all your tapered battery candles. When hanging them make sure you use one side of the 2 holes to go into a stud n high enough he can't reach them.
I love brass soooo much :)
Hi my name is kate but I use my husband's account lol, I would love to have gone to that antiques shop ,I saw so many things l would of loved and you had some beautiful little treasures you found ,I don't know how much a dollar is but I think it might be a couple of pounds in england, which is very cheap .one day when you have a antiques stall I bet you will fill it with the best little treasures, I wish you all the best in that ,I am trying to get some old brass candle holders but can't find any near me or they want to much money for them,lovely as always kate.🤗🎄🎁💖
Google says today that a dollar is .82 pounds - greetings from sunny Central Florida !
To get the dripping candles. I would try and use a hot glue gun to add the drips
The bookends are curtain rod holders.
This may be a little off topic but I love the color of your nail polish, would you share the brand and color? That said, I also love the metal pieces you found, especially the goblet. I have those candles and love them. I love candles but got so tired of cleaning up wax. They also make some that have the dripped wax look. Have a happy New Year!🎉
Thank you Marjorie! The red polish I’m wearing is OPI Got the Blues for Red, it’s my favorite! Happy New Year! 😊
Can't wait to see your Christmas stuff. I recently ordered remote tapers from Amazon. Brand is GenSwin. They have a black wick and look more real than any other brand I've used. I'm jealous of your Wagner bust. That's my newish married last name. I have a two (one larger one tiny) busts of him. I use him for almost every holiday. Especially Halloween 😁
I saw some of those after I filmed this!! The ones with the little black wick are so good… gonna have to go order some new ones. Haha! The busts are perfect for Halloween! Thanks for watching!! ☺️
your book ends are not book ends i think they are corbels for hanging curtains that’s what i thought when i saw the holes in the back for hanging . also if you don’t love them you might think on giving them a redo with paint if you’d like that better i’ve done exactly that very successfully before .
Wa'g'ner prounounced :-)
❤️❤️❤️
I think those bookends are curtains rods.
They are curtain rod holders.
I’ve noticed that some tarnished silver is really pretty and some is just dull and ugly. I have a mixture of polished and tarnished silver pieces.
I love a drippy candlestick too but it’s really hard to get them to drip, I think - so many of them even say dripless - just the opposite of what I want - does anyone have any good tips on how to get good drips - lol !
add melted wax drips to it from a real candle and not burn the 'plastic one' .
Lol I don’t like to polish my brass lol ❤
Just FYI its pronounced Vaugner. He was German, and German's pronounce W's like we pronounce V's.
Hot glue gun. Haha.
Sweetheart they are not book ends they are for curtains but I love them
Haha, I’ve had a lot of comments saying the same. They’re bookends now! 🤣
@@KrystaMeeker YES! they will look great as book ends 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼
Why not take another taper candle and drip it onto the candle? I think hot glue would melt the wax and maybe look odd.
Just drip some real candle wax on the candle . That way it might meld onto the candle without melting the candle.
I like all that, in which store do you buy it?
Yes Those are not bookends, those hold a curtain rod
Krysta
I have watched your channel several times and you have always looked familiar. Just wondering if you have a older sister named, Angela and a younger sister named Amanda? I knew these girls many years ago. Was friends with their parents. Military family.
Oh, how funny! I don’t have any sister with those names and we aren’t a military family, must have met my doppelgänger! 😄
@@KrystaMeeker yes, I think you really are. I met mine, it's so weird. Even my mother thought my friend was me. Lol
@@whimsicalendeavors There was a sad story in Florida many years ago about 2 teenage girls who were best friends and looked quite alike - they were in a terrible car accident one night and one of the girls died - somehow, the identities got mixed up - they were both badly injured - including facial injuries - finally, after a couple of weeks, I don’t remember how, the real identities were ascertained - so the parents who thought their daughter died were astounded to find out their daughter was alive, while the other two parents who had been at the bedside constantly of who they thought was their daughter, learned that their daughter was the one who had died on the scene - true story - about 30 years ago - I always thought I would be able to recognize my daughter’s hand, if nothing else, but I guess not, in this case …. hope this story wasn’t depressing …. Your comment brought it all back to me - Merry Christmas from Florida !
The things you called "bookends" ARE CURTAIN ROD HOLDERS ... I bought the exact ones - can be used to hold a "rod" or "a scarf"...sorry !
I don’t think they are bookends I think they are for wood curtain rods
Consensus is that they are curtain sconces, but in my house they’re bookends. Haha.
Why don't you take a real candle and drip onto the faux one to make it look more real. Love your channel.
May have to try that!! Thank you Penny! ☺️
Those aren't bookends. you put a curtain rod threw them and hang curtains
NO...don't burn your new candles.....try positioning hot glue to look like dripping wax.....just saying.....
Wagner is pronounced Vogner. Not criticizing, just trying to help
Your bookends are drapery rod brackets. The hole is for the rod. That’s why they have hanging hardware.
Or you drape the window treatment through the holes of each..
Wagner is German and the "W" is pronounced as a "V". The composer is VAGNER.
He is German so it is pronounced "Vagner". W is like V.
Wagner is pronounced 'vogg-ner'.
