  • The search for the perfect decor for my breakfast nook continues! Today, I’m exploring some local antique malls (that are brand new to me), hoping to find some unique pieces to really finalize the look and feel of the space. There was seriously so much to see at all of these places, and now I have some favorite spots to revisit! I stuck to a specific list of items, focusing specifically on vintage lighting and rugs, but I found some other really great pieces that are going to add tons of character to the nook!
    I can't wait to bring everything together for the final reveal of my breakfast nook makeover!

      I did too! I was also thinking about diy-ing a larger version of it with peel and stick chrome or mirror paper… vinyl numbers etc…

    I like the idea of a still life for an eating nook. Maybe several, if you have the space.

    I love the small lamps but I am honestly drawn more to the warm wood with turned base lamp, 80’s or not. Love it! 🤷🏻‍♀️

    That mid century modern lamp was gorgeous! It'll look great on top of a small stack of heavy books, or on the floor next to that large plant:)

    Wow! Your antique stores are amazing. The prices of things show that though. I’m in Washington. Our thrift stores have always been incredible. I’ve never walked away without something great. Our antique stores, not so much, though if I went closer to Seattle, I’m sure it would be a different story. I absolutely don’t have the budget to spend 200 dollars on a lamp.
    Those stores you took us to though! Man, so much good stuff in one place!

    • @livingwithlk
      @livingwithlk  25 дней назад +2

      I keep hearing Washington is thee place for thrifting! I can't wait to check out some stores there. It seems cheaper up there too from the videos I've seen! California is expensive no matter what it is, so.. there's that haha -- but I am obsessed with these stores now! They're the best I've found in SD to date..

    Your music is so relaxing. I have a big Día de Los Muertos project I've been working on for several days and I was putting the last components together before the installation in my college this morning. I played your video and just listened to you chat and the music vibe was perfect. The project is installed (yay!) and I came home and re-watched your video and actually watched this time. So many nice things to look at and crave. I'm excited to see the finished video. Your squatty coffee mug is gorgeous and a perfect fit for you home.

    I like the lamp you already have the best. I have photos I hang instead of art. They mean more to me since I am older and live by myself now. Replacing the metal blinds with the wooden ones is a good idea too.😊

    On those rattan lamps...find a crochet doily to put on top of the shade. That is what I do to my lamp shade tops. Don't attach it, just lay it over the top. It also helps filter the light

  • @nessiepenguin

    Great video. You have such fabulous shops in California. But pricey! Loved so much of what I saw in the video. That bird would've gone home with me. About the rattan lamps. You can stain them darker but what I especially love about them is the contrasty nature of the tones in the rattan. It adds so much depth and texture to the lamps that makes them seem unique. They're a really great find.

    I love watching your videos in-part because you gravitate towards many items that I typically don't, and seeing how you style them so incredibly is very fun and inspiring to me~ All the items you snagged were so cute, and the little rattan lamp is gonna look so good! 😍
    Putting a mirror above the coffee bar could be so cute, too~ You could even personalize it with white chalk marker to put the favorite coffee recipes you guys are currently using, or seasonal drawings, etc. ☕
    (The clock at 10:36 also produced the most soul-escaping gasp from me in the best way)

    Amazing job on the coffee bar redo! Consider using a wall mounted fixture if you need additional light. The top of your coffee bar next to your kitchen perhaps could be empty for a prep area, or perhaps have a serving tray for carrying multiple items between the coffee nook and the kitchen.

    Antique malls are fun, I've always found them to be more pricier than thrift stores though. I think a couple of open shelves above the coffee bar would work nicely.

    I know how you feel about that mismatch..ugh floor in the nook...maybe you could find several matching rugs to totally coverup the floor...how about a large indoor outdoor rug, earthy looking or severalsmaller rugs that match each other.?? Liking all the designs you come up with!!

    I absolutely gasped when I saw that Showa-era Japanese lamp. It's almost certainly too expensive in the US but I would have bought that in Taiwan, where I live, in a heartbeat (that sort of thing is not too pricey here). But to each their own I guess.

    Wish I could remember the name of the antique mall I went to in San Diego… I think I selected it for being open till 7. I got a mint green Melmac butter dish in excellent condition and a collection of stone fruit that got me stopped at the airport 😅

    Little lamps are pretty cute, but the 80s one icks me out somehow, not sure why. Maybe because I remember the 80s as a kid and thought the 80s decor is pretty hideous!

    Just found your channel, and I am catching up with all of your videos! Love your style and how discriminating your taste is. Great job. But....girl, you need to hit up the thrift stores! I know California can have some high prices, but you will get much better deals, especially since you have such great vision for items.

    • @livingwithlk
      @livingwithlk  4 дня назад +1

      Thanks! I have a big playlist on here of all the thrift stores I’ve gone to and you’ll see the prices aren’t much cheaper! And the selection is much more general. The options are just not high quality in terms of style. It’s rare to find a good piece there as they’re very picked over in California. If I’m looking for specific statement pieces I only ever find those on Facebook Marketplace, estate sales, or the antique malls. As you’ll see from my secondhand shopping videos!

      Funny you mention it! 'Like' actually isn’t just filler for young females (who are often the recipients of such critique)-it’s 'an incredibly versatile and dynamic word' that helps bring, like, nuance and connection to conversations. As linguist Alexandra D’Arcy explains, it lets me tell a story 'without promising complete accuracy,' making it easier to convey the feeling of what I’m saying. It’s also a handy way to check if we’re, like, on the same page. So, I guess I’ll keep saying it, thanks for noticing!!😉
