    I think the chair would be adorable as a swing. Make the seat into a swing and the bottom into a side table.

    That tapestry is peruviaaaan! At home we had one soooo similar!!! Omg, nostalgia is coming in 3,2,1 😭 when I was a child, my grandpa told me a lot of fairytales stories based on that image!

      It’s insane how cheap these are sold for in Peru. Last time I went I bought one of the tapestries and some hand painted plates that I absolutely adore. I had always seen these in my family’s houses growing up 💕

      @soffialv2209 3 года назад +3

      Yes, they are super common on the whole andean area, from the north of Argentina to Ecuador, basicaly anywhere where you can find Quechuan culture you can find one. Those small ones are the most commons, but there are some that are like 7ft wide!

    I love that chair! I’m literally so jealous. Maybe make a base or legs for the chair and use the bottom piece as a foot stool? Make cushions for both or cover the top of the foot stool in woven cane!

  • @unaschattenherz7051

    I'd let the chair be as is, and I would style it with a really fluffy sheepskin throw, maybe Icelandic sheep skin.

    As you were making the cushion, I was yelling out, "it was way too small before, make it much bigger and flatter," in the hopes that you would somehow hear me, lol. I love it as a chair. I would just make a larger cushion.

    I like that chair as is with the spinner, once you make the right size cushion and pillow for the back it won't look like too much going on with the wicker, you'll just see the bottom and the sides.

  • @anonymousanonymous5332
    @anonymousanonymous5332 3 года назад +54

    Keep as a chair!! The swivel ones are rare. I like your idea of making it more expensive looking with a band of fabric.

    • @patriciaoldfather6377
      @patriciaoldfather6377 3 года назад +10

      I agree! As much as I love some of the other ideas, the whole swivel thing is so awesome! And as you said, a rare find!
      My very soul is screaming, NOOOOOOO! to making it into 2 pieces. 😓

    • @janerademacher3737
      @janerademacher3737 3 года назад +7

      I agree 100%. The swivel chairs are super hard to find and it would be such a waste to take it apart. I'm all for the creative reinventing of used or broken pieces but that chair is in fantastic condition and should be kept as is. I'm sure you can find a matching rattan footstool to turn into a side table. Or a broken rattan cane chair that could use new legs. But I really wouldn't encourage people to take apart good condition vintage furniture for the sake of a thrift flip.
      Maybe make a new cushion by weaving yarn to create texture or add a sheepskin/lumbar pillow.

  • @olisiac6529
    @olisiac6529 3 года назад +36

    That’s definitely an Andean/Quechua tapestry. It could be from Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia. Places that have indigenous roots in their country. I’m Ecuadorian and have Quechuan ancestry, but it could be from any of the places that I mentioned, as they have similar ancestry and culture!

    @teddyhcuts 3 года назад +91

    hi macenna for your propagations on your heart leaf philadendron make sure you cut a node and get the node in the water so it roots. a single leaf without a node won’t root. also a little direct light on the propagation is ok, like if they’re in a west window you can leave them there and especially in the winter when the days are shorter. hope this helps :) love you girl!

    Last year I got a very similar chair from an old woman on marketplace she sold it to me for 5 or 10 dollars I think and the cushion was horrendous so I swapped it for a neutral coloured ikea one. She told me that it’s real wicker and originally cost over $200 and I definitely believe that. It’s such a gem and everyone who comes over always thinks that chair has such a warm boho vibe 🤗

      Thanks for the info! I could tell it was andean for sure, the alpaca/llama, the hats, the clothes, the colors, the mountain peaks...! I've never seen one done with that technique though! It's very pretty! I have a tapestry I thrifted at home though, and I can't really tell where it's from, not even sure about the general area... my guess is Mexico or somewhere in Meso America, but I could be completely wrong!! xD It really kills me not to know...! lol

    Looks great!!! I would definitely split the chair like you were thinking. Maybe make the stool a really pretty plant stand and add some awesome legs on the top piece. And for the cushion, maybe give it to baby Kingsley for Christmas as a little bed in the car! Great job babes, as always!

      If she does separate a dig bed from the top and a round lazy Susan coffee table! I would also do my best to keep things as simple as possible so it could go back to the original chair. Just in case! Its completely doable if she goes with this idea.

  • @heidi.a.thomson
    @heidi.a.thomson 3 года назад

    The wood rings go over a wood rod that rests on the brackets. The little metal ring is where you would hook the curtain. The hooks in themselves actually slip into creases at the top of the curtain. Kind of like a large square paper clip. One end hooks through the the little loop on the ring and the other fastens into the curtain pleat. It's the kind of curtain rod my grandparents had in the 80s. I think we were all happy for the birth of more modern versions!
    This kind of rod would be great today in a cottage.

    The philodendron your propogated will be easy where you placed it! Just change the water once a week and it roots very quickly! You can cut the roots and let it continue to grow back and live in the vase, or cut them down to 2 inches of root it you pot it (and just keep the soil damp for the first two weeks before backing off since it's going from water to soil, and soak the soil first before planting). This was my quarantine hobby! It was so fun to learn about different plants and their needs! I now have mini garden in my home?

  • @susank3207

    I love thrifting on mondays usually but I also go to them on other days when I have nothing else I have to do. I am an avid thrift flipper, try to use a vintage item in a different way such as old platters for my everyday cooking. Old China pieces for holding my jewelry, vintage stemware for my wine, tea, lemonade glasses. Large Old frames for photo galleries (place smaller pictures in the frame) and so much more.

  • @lizasmr4549
    @lizasmr4549 3 года назад

    I like the separate piece idea for the chair. I think if you found a black leg frame for the chair it would fit your boho/industrial vibe. It would match your black window frame too! The pillow would look good against the back of the chair instead of as a cushion since it’s too small. Maybe add some texture with tassels or wooden beading to the pillow too. And it’d be cool to make a side table from the bottom piece of the chair but put the spin piece back in and it could be like a lazy Susan table? Idk if that’s functional but seems cool!! Love your channel 💜

    I used to work at a florist and those vases were the ones we had for when someone wanted 1-3 roses with babies breath :) As for the chair, I say leave it as-is unless you find legs and a table top that you think can work seamlessly with it. I think the original cushion shrunk in the wash, because it fit the chair when it was at the thrift store, and after washing, it was super round like a little stuffed donut haha :) I'm always so impressed with your DIY's. The wooden ring-vases turned out amazing!

    I liked the second flip, with the vases. My grandmother always had a glass root ball in her kitchen window. I inherited that when she passed away. I don’t have it in my window yet. I have clunky blinds. I’m going to either make or buy some type of kitchen curtains. So I can put that in my window when it’s safe to use it. It’s very delicate glass on a wrought iron stand. I think you should put other legs on the chair and make a footstool out of the bottom. Just sit on the cushion awhile. It will go flatter. Can’t wait for the next thrift flip video.

    The tapestry frame looks amazing in contrast to the festive decor. Simply amazing! The chair would look good as it it but maybe change the cushions into a boho style/colour fabric.

    I love what you did with the tapestry, i am sure someone spent so many hours making it and you are honoring it :) it looks so cute !
    For the chair, i don't think it should be two pieces, i think you can make a better shaped/sized cushion. Maybe in a more fun patterned / darker fabric ?

    I think the chair with new legs & the bottom as a coffee table with a round wooden top would look so cute ❤️

    The chair is gorgeous as it is! A new cushion with a band will be perfect

    These are great. I always look at the linens. I frequently find great vintage placemats, table cloths, and even napkins.

    So many thoughts!
    1. THE BAKING SODA PAINT WORKS! LOOKS GOOD! LETS NOT MAKE THAT GO AWAY ANYTIME SOON!
    2. The tapestry framed looked so so good! I was screaming buy that buy that!! 3.Should have got the rose macrame tan pillow cases too! I was really hoping to see those repurposed into something cool.
    4.The wood rings turned out amazing as per usual!! I did my bath and body works foaming hand soap bottles with a plaster of paris mixed paint in a cool aged terracotta look. I freaking loved how they turned out!
    5. Oh my goodness that chair! I knew you were going to get it! I wouldn't have left without it. Part of me says it's a great chair in great shape just make different cushions for it in a more modern look. Then the Heywood Wakefield lover in me says turn it to a lazy Susan coffee table!! I had a Heywood Wakefield rare spinning coffee table with a base shaped close to the chair but it only had 3 legs with a round base. It was our first real piece of furniture as a couple and I lost it in a storage room water damage disaster! Breaks my heart thinking about it. I loved it and it was a instant conversation piece everytime we had company. So if you can use the spinning part and make a wood top for it a part of me says go for it! I would try my best to not mess with the original integrity so you can make it back to a chair if it doesn't work out. Definitely look up Heywood Wakefield round spinning tables they are a slice of MCM HEAVEN! HOPE YOU SEE THIS! ❤❤❤

    Keep the chair together, and yes, add a band around the cushion- it's loosing some of its width because it's curving up to meet the top! No need to scrap it, just pick it open and add a band! I'd go with a foam pad inside with the stuffing added. I'd also add ties to the back like the original cushion to help keep it in place!

  • @karinedesfosses3678
    @karinedesfosses3678 3 года назад

    Yes! That chair is so beautiful! I think the reason why that cushion was too small, is because the other back pillow would sit behind the cushion and on the sides, slightly, moving it forward and making it all look like it fits...but that's just what I think.

    I really love how you took the little Mexican rug piece of art and made it into the picture that you did really turned out cute

    Definitely keep as a chair!! Make the cushion thinner and wider. If you sew some wood buttons “large ones “ through the top to make your cushion look more “finished or polished “. I absolutely love the chair! I have so many ideas running through my head right now, but I think you were on the right path, just need a little tweaking. You could make the cushion larger, wider and hand sew some of the wood beads that you use in bowls all the time that would give you a beautiful finished edge to your cushion 🤔

    I say turn the chair into a set with the bottom as a foot stool and the top as the seat with new legs. You can use the cushion you sewed as the cushion on the foot stool and then it’s also dual purpose for another seat. The banding on the seat cushion is definitely needed, and I think some little tassel add ons to the cushions would give the set such a cute boho feel :)
