  • Thank you SO much for the awesome questions you left in the comments of last week’s video announcing my move. Part 1 - • I’m Moving! Post Divor...
    I’m going to answer questions pertaining to my divorce, separating Cally and I's finances, why I’m not keeping my house, the process of moving, and finally about the Apple Orchard House. There are some questions I didn’t answer, mostly ones about my new house that will have to wait until the official tour. So if I didn’t answer your question, I might answer it in a future video! I’m so grateful for your kindness and support during this move, it’s a really scary thing leaving behind the 60s House and the life I had there. Your support means a lot to me and you can see that when I start to cry lol.
    Here is my Housewarming Gifts Amazon wish list if you want to see what items I need for my house. I know the list is pretty boring, not a lot of exciting items on there (unless you consider mops exciting). Please feel absolutely no obligation to buy me anything. If you do, thank you so much and I will unbox the item in a future video and thank you personally! www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls...
    P.S. My yard sale is still happening and it will be held at the 60s house in Michigan! Here is a link with all the details - www.emilyretro.com/blog/my-ya...

    Wow...I cannot believe that people who only know you and your story on line feel like they need to know your financial situation. Anyway I am very happy for you....I hope all goes will for you both. I have an idea for you since you can only paint a little. If you use fabric motifs or sheets you can apply them to the wall with liquid starch. It is easy to apply and remove images and just wash the wall with warm water and done. Looking forward to seeing you new place and all you do to it.

    Omg yes curtains are expensive! And the rods too. When I bought my house the former homeowner took all the curtain rods when they moved out so I also had to figure that out on top of the curtains themselves. I’ve ended up with a mix of purchased curtains & handmade ones. And thankfully Hobby Lobby was clearancing out all their curtain rods when I was out looking so I got a deal there too. 😅

    OMG, don't even get me started on curtains.
    But I did get lucky one time at Goodwill and I found this one panel of vintage orange like thick curtain and is the most amazing thing ever.
    Currently we have it covering our one little window in our master bathroom and it is just perfect.
    But if you're someone that can do a little sewing you can find old sheets or fabric or something at a thrift store or a consignment shop and can use those to make curtains pretty easily for a fraction of the cost.

    Thanks for doing the Q&A. You have so much to teach us about how ending relationships are sad but they can be done amicably and in the end it is a normal thing that happens and is OK! I have one suggestion for when you hang curtains at your new place: if you don't already have curtain rods, I have been using metal conduit from the home improvement stores and it is sturdy, long, and cheap. just a little spray paint and works perfect with the curtain rings!

    • @emilyretro
      @emilyretro  Год назад

      Thanks so much, Jaime that’s really nice of you to say. Omgggg I’m so glad you said that because I’m planning on using that piping!!!

    Thrift stores are amazing for finding not only the wacky items but also gadgets and kitchen items as well. We've been fortunate enough to find brand new items on a few occasions.
    Like a couple months ago we found a brand new and inbox air fryer that I think was around 20 bucks or less. The box was open but everything was sealed up and everything was included which was amazing.
    You can really find some gems as we do a LOT!
    We have been fortunate enough to find like mix and match vintage dishes and just so many random, unique and awesome items.
    But also yard sales are great too.

    Emily! You are on a huge adventure. I'm excited for you! That sun room is going to be so darn fun. I would be living in that room! (Sunshine is so healing) Do you shop at places like Dollar Tree? They do have some of the things you may need. (Cupcake holders etc) but they, of course, are not vintage and more plastic stuff. I think an Amazon list is fantastic and a great idea., Does Cally have any idea to eventually sell your house? Your name being on there with her, will that be shared Profits? There is so much to think about! I'm just happy for you. I can see the excitement of a new place. Make sure you have a craft area! Hugs from Minnesota. We are up here still waiting on Spring!
