    I love when I hear other people talk about God like He is your best friend! He has provided my wants and needs even when I haven’t prayed but it’s so special when it is something I have vocalized. Love your videos and your faith in Christ🥰

    What a treat this video was. I'm probably old enough to be your mom but totally love your excitement for vintage finds. You are such fun to watch. Don't ever apologize for putting the Lord or prayers in your videos. You may be the only 'Jesus' that some see.

    Hi, this is the first time I am seeing your videos and it’s so sweet to hear you talk about god and prayer. The sweaters all looked very nice and you found some great pieces. I’m 66 and have just started getting into thrifting. A year ago I would never have considered shopping second hand but it’s actually fun , practical and a way to help the environment.

  • @cindyhancock5261
    @cindyhancock5261 2 года назад +5

    I liked all the sweaterd but I actually loved the design on the one you mentioned being unsure about. I think it was the first one you put on. I do like them partially tucked in or out also but not the crop top. That just seems more for a summer look amd not for a sweater. You made some good selling decisions. Wow, made enough to pay for some of the others. As always, love your videos.

    • @KristenHoffman
      @KristenHoffman  2 года назад

    I have found MANY curbside finds.. During lockdown and we couldn;t shop I would just walk my neighborhood as our large trash pickup is Friday,,,I redid a desk and a chair that didn't come from the same house a 4 drawer dresser, a bookcase, and a few small pieces such as wall art that I painted and used other prints in the frames...love the free finds... The picture your neighbor have you was beautiful!

As I have told you before, we call them "God Nuggets" ( unexpected blessings that God gives us) They are there every day and we don't want to miss them.... Love all the sweaters. Love from Oklahoma.

    These sweaters all look great. You have a great shape and you are definitely cool. Funny that the chairs that you picked up are vintage and I have the same ones for my grandmother who has passed over 20 years ago. So many of the younger families don't care about history and real vintage furniture. Thank you for keeping Good Wood furniture in your family. The ice cream style chairs they're cute but not my favorite, not comfortable. I've bought a couple at yard sales and put an x in the caned seat and planted my geraniums. You'll get more compliments out on the front porch or in a garden by people asking if that's really a chair. As for that pea green color you might consider taking a carpet cleaner with steam and extract the dirt and oils that are on that fabric you'd be surprised the color change. My chair has always been covered over so the true color was more like a yellowy gold. Good luck

  • @carolwhite8472
    @carolwhite8472 2 года назад +1

    Kristen, if you love the style of the pea green chair, you need to check out the Annie Sloan RUclips videos on chalk painting fabric on chairs. There are many, many videos on painting upholstered furniture on RUclips! We are getting ready to chalk paint two wing chairs we have had for over 40 years. I think it would be a good option if you love the style of the chair, but are not wild about the color. Also, you might want to do some research on Roseville pottery, some of it is very collectible. I love your videos, and I wish you a smooth transition in your upcoming move!

    • @KristenHoffman
      @KristenHoffman  2 года назад
