Hi Brooke, you are gonna love those Painted Ferns once they start spreading their beauty over the garden. I have taken a little of it each time I move and they are all over now through the shady part of my garden. Can't wait to see your makeover room. Thanks for taking us along to shop for bargains too.
Gorgeous little crystal lamp! Lucky princess 🌸💕 i’d keep searching for the right frame so you don’t have to cut the birdie legs off. You’ll find just the right one! 😉
I’ll see what I can come up with if not I’m not too concerned. It’s just a print. It’s not a oil painting or anything. I’ll look around for a little bit, but if I don’t find anything, I’m just gonna put it in the gold frame that I have I’m not searching for the next year for this. If it was a precious painting, I would have it done professionally and spend the $200. Have a beautiful day. Thanks for stopping in. I am enjoying my little Crystal lamp too. I’m looking for a really pretty shade for it and I’m very blessed with all my beautiful subscribers thanks for being a part of it.
I can't believe how big the thrift stores are in your area. My Vallue Village hardly has any hard goods. It was fun thrifting with you, enjoy your day!
It’s too bad you do not have the space for a small greenhouse. When you’re columbines start to seed in the next couple years, you will have them everywhere. They are probably one of my favorite flowers for the spring. It’s looking good. I hope it comes together the way that you want.
I love your videos. Always perks me up! Along with my coffee! That wood bunny is fabulous. If you want to spiff up your stairs, you can always get peel and stick pattern tiles for the risers. Add a kick to the black stairs! If mine weren’t carpeted, my stairs would be black! Take care!❤
Well this was a long video, what a treat. I love thrifting, so l feel like l’m right beside you shopping having a blast. That crystal lamp is beautiful. Enjoy your week and hope its a pain free one😊
What a fabulous video! Brooke your garden is beautiful, and tranquil! Such a positive and uplifting video, I love your “Can-Do” spirit. You inspired me to do better. Have a lovely week ahead and catch you in the next video. Big Hugs❤
Hi Brooke. It's very late so I hope you're sleeping soundly. Am watching some TV while trying to stretch my very achy neck before bed. The rain did pounce down on your garden but your pretty flowers all got a good drink. You do have a gift in growing plants & flowers. I do really like the pink on your pillows on the porch. So many pretty things at the store, I liked the linens & some of the very pretty plates. The foot massage sounded very good. I love the lamp that was gifted to you, very pretty princess. Your robin really loves your home, garden & trees. Will say goodnight. Take care of yourself & rest when needed. Big hugs 🤗 💕.
You do make me smile Brooke😂 As bad as me cleaning as you are going along. I’m mopping backwards as I go out the front door! We can’t help ourselves! Garden flourishing beautifully. Very best wishes from southern Spain, where it’s baking hot 🥵 Lorna x
Well that particular one did it was totally missing the lid ,I googled it was very beautiful. I would’ve bought it. I just wanted the full piece not very often to find them in that good shape.
Your garden is really doing well. Japanese painted ferns are a beautiful and tough plant. They spread a lot once they’re established. I love the thrift shop that is color coded. The frog prince is really cute❤️. Shopping is very tiring when you do it for a long time.😊. The lamp your subscriber sent is beautiful. How sweet of her. Have a good rest of the week. Love and blessings ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks very much, Jean. Yes, the painted fern. I wish it would spread well. Maybe in time it’s really my first year with this garden. Last year was just planting. I see if he bought that need filled in. Yes the lamp is absolutely beautiful. I love it. Just gotta find the right shade. Think that’ll be in time. Have a beautiful day, my friend. Thanks for visiting.
I live in Oregon and I have quite a few ferns and they live through the winter even in the coldest periods. Their roots are strong and will survive. Their leaves will turn brown and you will think they are dead, but, they are not. I cut all of the fronds/leaves back to where the fern base is and they grow back very quickly and beautifully. Rich and full. But, you must, and I can't say this enough, water ferns A LOT. Oh, and one more thing, you must feed/fertilize them and other plants too, at least once a year or season. This is where you get your beautiful flowers from.❤❤❤
Not using my jam, but I couldn’t resist cause he was a frog and I’m not usually into gestures or clowns but this one was a little unique. I use it at Christmas.
Loved all the thrift store footage. Thanks for taking us along. How is Lori doing? Miss seeing her in your videos. Say hi, for me. 😊 The garden looks great. Hydrangea's remind me of my late grandmother who grew a very long wall of them in her garden. I too, have learned alot from you about gardening. I swear those birds watch over you. Hope you got something to eat. 😊❤❤❤
Well good morning beautiful. Wow, this was a busy video. I love that value village that sorts by color. So much better. The lamp is gorgeous! Can’t wait to see what’s next. Be well my friend 🐸 oh the frog, not usually my jam, but he’s cute!❤
Good morning, my friend. I hope you’re well. Yeah, the frogs usually not my jammy either I hesitated, but there was just something about him. That was different not into justice usually at all.
Good morning. Brooke. Its a beautiful morning 🌄 here. Overcast. We've been in a heatwave supposed rain here this Thursday coming. 🎉 we sure need the 🌧. The 🍒 on our tree never last. All the birds and squirrels eat them before they get ripe. 😅 i keep thinking 🤔 about what your going to put on that bare spot now hmmm. Whatever you choose i know will be beautiful. We had a few trees taken out, also. They were way to big. Now its bare. Were thinking about what to put there also. Maybe go to the bird Habitat nursery garden we have here and see what's a native tree to our environment . Which will make for easy care. 😊 i really love your ferns. We bought 2 and i want to go get 2 more. There doing wonderful. I also got a potato vine. Its growing very quickly Wow taking off. We put it againt our gazebo. What is only used for plant's now. The wind ripped the material right off. And it was worn. 😅 what size is the picture for the flamingo ? My hubby and i use to get picture frames at Michael's for 60% off it was really cheap i remember and it looked quality 👌 😉. I enjoyed the video this morning. I had my coffee and a muffin, while watching . Im going to a smaller thrift store today. There having everything in the store $1.00 . They want to clear it right out for there fall inventory. 🍃 🍂 🍁 🍃 🍂 our leaves have been falling off for about 2 weeks already. So the first rain more will fall. 😮 have a great day Pretty Princess 👸 💕 💗 💖 💓 the 🐸 is so 😍 cute. 🙏 ❤ ✌️ 😊
Thanks for sharing all that with me. I never even thought about Michael’s. I know the place at the street for me that does it extremely expensive but yeah if you can get 60% off, that would make for a cheap day at the park for sure yes potato vines do grow beautiful don’t they? I think we’re in for as we had such an early spring. I’m seeing some lace falling too. I think it’s a little too soon for me ha ha I’m a summer girl through and through. I think fall is beautiful, but I’d rather hang out in the sun than in the cold, have a beautiful day. We’ll see you tomorrow.
I had that Santa picture. I bought it at a grocery store in the early 1990s and then I got rid of it. I guess after my daughter didn’t believe in Santa anymore I just love all the children though.
Yes, it’s very beautiful. I saw one in the Habitat for Humanity store. And my subscribers taught in the video so I have one I’ll send it to you so so nice of her.
I think so too! If I can find the right one has to be pretty princess for sure. First I gotta figure out where I’m putting it lol you know that’s always the problem.🍃🌸
Hi Brooke ! great day you had, I loved the silver tea set, I have never seen shape like that! The crystal lamp is beautiful even with the black shade ,lucky you ! Blessings Paula
Yeah, it was very beautiful. I really don’t need one either. I don’t even entertain anymore, but they’re so pretty. The crystal lamp on the other hand is absolutely gorgeous.
I really enjoyed watching this video today.your garden is really coming along beautifully l think some lady's mantle would be good in there .....they are pretty! I liked that Santa picture as well and that crystal lamp was that ever nice.bye for now
Oh, I have lots of it around my garden. I love it the Santa picture. I had it in the 90s and early 2000s so brought back a lot of memories for me and the crystal lamp is very special. Thank you.🌸🦋
Hello Brooke, oh my goodness you have been a busy bee! I was exhausted just watching you throughout this video. Lots of pretty things to look at, especially the silver. I agree with you though, the sugar container needs to have its lid. And that stunning crystal lamp? Well, if you ever wish to part with it, let me know and I’ll be on the next flight out 😅. It is exquisite. Just like your decor. The world would be a much nicer place if there more people like your lovely and generous subscribers. They just love you to bits lovely lady. Catch you in the next one. Ciao Bella.
Thank you so very much. I truly appreciate all your kind words and your kindness. I do have the best subscribers. I will save myself. Thank you for being part of it. Have a beautiful day and don’t forget to make your life pretty princess all the time, loves🍃🌸🦢
Good Morning Brooke 👑 🐝 Your crystal lamp is beautiful, very pretty princess. You are one lucky lady. We all love following along. I bet most of us see stuff and think of you 🩷 Side note :I really like that you changed the red mulch for black. Hope you have a relaxing day 🌞✨️🌸🐇🏡🐦🌿
Good morning! Yes, I’m surely blasted aren’t they? Thank you so much for being part of my journey here and yes, I’m very happy with the black mulch too.🍃🌸🌺 it was a suggestion from a friend and I gave it a try didn’t like it.
Hallo Brooke Nice too se you. What a lovely trifting today.That bunny is pretty.The weather is realy crazy,its hot and rainy and windy.Have a wonderful day.😊❤❤
When you picked up that plate at 17:39 showing the coronation of King George VI in 1937, I thought “that’s probably worth big bucks.” I was wrong. The going rate seems to be around $10.00 and the sticker price at the thrift store is $9.99.
Morning Ma. 🦋🙏🌸😘🙏🌹Checking out the video as I normally do every Sunday morning Lol.😍 LOVE YA Have a wonderful day. 💕💕 Hey Ma. Ok cutee pa tootee 😂Your manny pedi is super cute. I noticed it 👀right away. That color red is so pretty. ❤️ That swan with the butterfly 🦋.. I just knew you were going to get.. lol but fooled me. Your good. You didn't. Wow your VV is closing😢 That one was a good store. We Have Value City where I live and they are NO WAY as good as your in Canada.
Good morning! Yeah, I just thought I didn’t need it. It’s pretty as it was. It was very cute though. Must say yeah I’m gonna miss that value village. It’s a great one. Have a beautiful Sunday.🩷❤️🧡
Thank you for sharing your garden with us! Love it! Maybe a cinnamon fern would look nice in your garden, they get 2-5ft high and 2-3ft wide and they grow upright. Maybe one of those would work where you just removed your tree. I still vote for a hydrangea in that space, to me hydrangea are so romantic, pretty princess. Have a nice week!
I’ve never seen a cinnamon fern. Is it shade as well? Sounds lovely. I think I’m gonna pass on the hydrangea because it’s just so many in my neighbourhood gonna do something. Maybe we pain or something when I get there I get there always work in progress. thanks for the suggestions appreciate it. I’m gonna Google the cinnamon fern 🩷🧡❤️🌸🍃🦋
@@mamabrooke The cinnamon fern works in full shade. Searching for a new plant is always so exciting, have fun with your search. Good luck with the rooms as well!
Do you put some kind of stair treads on painted surfaces? I ask because painted stairways can be very slippery. I would hate to see you fall. You're too precious to all of us.
Mine too! thanks for watching. We had a big rainstorm this week. This video went up before that with the flood in Toronto. I am OK but a lot of people weren’t and we’re out of power for 10 hours.
I've seen silver tea sets with the sugars with and without lids. If you look at sugar bowl it will have a smoothed interior lip for the lid to sit into. I was told this by an antique dealer once when I was checking out sets.
Yeah, I googled the site and the store did come with one. I know some come without, but this one actually came with a lid. I found the whole set from the maker on the bottom.
Most male birds/animals are prettier than the females. That frog jester is adorable! And I understand the struggle to find a certain size frame. Especially an off size one. Been there, done that. Garden is looking lovely. Tfs. Have a blessed day. Ciao!
Absolutely the male bird is prettier than the female. Yeah I thought it was a pretty cute little jester too not really into them a lot but I couldn’t refuse because it was a frog. Yeah I’ll find what I frame. I guess when it’s supposed to be or I’ll just use what I have I’m not really there yet. I’ve been working on finding a tree for the front. I think I got one thanks.🍃🌸🦋🧡🌺❤️
Good morning Brooke, I'm intrigued with you sharing you once had a store. What type of store did you have? I like that VV location. I can't believe it's closing.
I had a shabby chic cottage Co store up north in northern Ontario. Yeah it’s been a favour of mine for about 20 years Toronto is just turning into one big concrete jungle condos everywhere
The spot that you have that gets some sun you can put a Peony there. I know how much you love them. I just got one from Lowes that is shade and partial sun.
🎚️🇺🇸🇨🇱🌵 ENJOYING From Texas USA... we have cooler temperature bc of Hurricane in Gulf of Mexico....don't think Galveston devestated we r 12 hrs away .... Lovely summer USA grateful 🇺🇸 Brooke love ur video s ..from Karen
Brooke has you thought about some flowering ground cover to cut down on weeding and to cover the open spaces, I like all your plants perhaps more hydrangea and a peony.
The female cardinal is gorgeous, she's an olive green with a muted red head. The reason the female is not as striking as the male is because that's nature's way of protecting her and her babies. Camo! The males are striking to attract the females.
🎚️🇺🇸🇨🇱🌵 bet even from Hurricane .. amazing. ..we have t heard if any hurt bad.hope not but we r LONG way away from Gulf'.. amazing how our beautiful Earth 🌎 works 🙏🙏🙏🌞
Great video!!! I have a question about your Cafe curtain for your back door. Did you consider doing a valance at the top of the door, just on the door, so that you could display the cute frog motif clearly, that is stretched out. And then hang the striped part of the curtain on the rod at the midpoint of the door downwards. That way it wouldn't block too much light from your pantry or the view of your lovely terrace garden AND the frog motif would be clearly visible. Otherwise you won't see the frogged motif unless the curtain is closed and covering your window and light... My suggestion would involve cutting the panel into two pieces to separate the fragile section to allow you to apply it over a valance and attach valance at top of door. Alternatively you could make valance as I have suggested, but with about a 2-3 inch return on either end and hang the striped curtain from the rod under the valance so that it hangs down to the bottom of the door window -- it would, in this case be into sections hanging g straight down on the right and left sides of the door window and would only block the view and light if/when u pulled the two panels closed to/at the centre of the window. Otherwise when open, the two striped panels would just hang neatly on either side of the window in the door. Just good for thought...
I was trying to block some of the light because it gets really hot in there and I’m very happy the way the curtains turned out. I didn’t really want the actual café halfway mark because the sun is very intense there. It’s like a 30Celsius on a good day and pantry not good for food now it’s down to 23 just a curtain.
Yeah, someone else told me that but we don’t have pennies here in Canada anymore, so they’re hard to come by. Maybe when my daughter comes from the state she’ll have a few.
Everything looks beautiful in your garden, We are a zone 5 here in Wisconsin, the south is a 3 I think. I noticed you dont have any grip non slip strips on any of your steps, just sayin, ya know for safety, you cant afford to flip on your tooker! Heaven forbid. That bunny, the brown wood one you liked looked very Asian in style or Indian may have gone in your Bohemian room makeover. Ohhh good you got it!! LOL❤ I finally found an affordable crane pillow cover, the ones I wanted were all over 70 bucks, Im not paying that, this one was 24 so that made me happy, I will all the heavy gold fringe later. What I do if I find a frame that is too wide is I put foil Christmas wrapping paper behind, I have a roll of a beautiful green and all my pics have that on the edges so they all match plus it gives it a little sheen which I like. I also have a beautiful pink and another of different blues. My prints come from Australia so Im not cutting those down. Id rather buy bigger frame and add pretty foil paper behind❤ That was a gorgeous silver set, what do you think happened to the sugar dish cover? I wonder about stuff like that, sometimes it gets packed in different boxes, and put out in different isles. Oh you looked, ok LOL! I always comment as the video plays or I forget what I want to say. That frog is adorable!!!🐸🌱
Well, I’m in zone six we do have pretty harsh winters though yes I’ve seen the paper behind but with this it’s not an expensive print. It’s on a piece of canvas so it’s a little touching go. I think it needs to fit it frame or mad at one. I don’t even think it I want a mat on it but anyways it’ll come when it comes. I’ll get there no great rush no emergency. I have no clue about the sugar covered lid. I believe you’re right. It might’ve been in another box with some other stuff. A lot of people are saying they don’t come with it at this one I know actually did I’ve seen them without I like it with I like the sugar up or can I say everyone has the preference right have a beautiful day thanks for stopping in. I appreciate your time.❤️🩷🧡
I don’t have any problems. I took it off because it’s only 2 feet wide. I run up and down them all day maybe in my 80s I’ll have to move downstairs to the main floor for now. I’m good.
If you like the shade are you able to fabric paint a shade? Again I love your flamingos print, looking forward to how you stage in your home..great video as always.
Yes, some don’t. I understand that but this one did ,my mother had one without it to, but I like it with the lid and that one did I have a lid because I googled it in the store . It’s OK. I just look for one that does.
Love your thrifting. Anxious to see your Ralph makeover. What happened to the lady who used to meet you at the thrift store? You helped decorate her house once. Hang in there and keep it pretty princess.
Oh, that’s not coming to the fall and hopefully it turns out well and I might do a Ralph Christmas too. If the fall one goes well, I can recycle some of the things I’m gathering into that too love always have a beautiful day. Oh, I haven’t seen her since April. I believe she’s met some other friends on the other side of town and preoccupied, which is all good. We only met online anyways we were just Thrifting buddies maybe will run into each other again who knows.
How about another hydrangea inthat big space by the tree adjacent to the columbine? If you put a bushy low plant where you yook out the Tred you won't be able to see the lower height plants behind it -- between it and the fence...?
I want to go thrifting so bad. Maybe tomorrow. I am always at work. I want to remodel my camper. I get tired of seeing the same thing every day. Think that I am going to paint. Going to look for a couple of chairs for the living room tomorrow. ❤
@@mamabrooke Good morning! I'm not sure about sales at the thrift stores. We have several here around me. But, I work all of the time and don't get the chance to go very often. I haven't seen a Salvation Army in several years. Not sure if they even exist anymore here in the states. I have to drive about an hour to a Goodwill. Which all thrift stores have jacked up their prices so that you can go elsewhere and purchase it for around the same price new. I am going out to shop today. I hope that you have a wonderful day and happy thrifting!❤
Maybe one day I’ll do black. I’m in the red moment right now for Christmas. I like black everything don’t give me a can of black. I’d be painting something lol
Hi Brooke, the garden is beautiful. You have really worked hard on it. Love going along with you. Thank you💕💕
Aw thanks so very much 🌺🍃🌸🐇
Thanks for the shopping like the frog and love the lamp. I do like the black lamp shade
Thanks so much. I’m really happy with the black lampshade.
Thanks for the long video today. It was a two-cuppa-coffee length!☕
Hope you enjoyed it! I didn’t mean for it to be that long either just went that way🤷🏼♀️🤣😂
@@mamabrooke I'm always happy with a long video!
In a Pretty Princess porcelain cup, I'm sure!
@@lynnbrown4364 My coffee was in a cute mug rather than a Pretty Princess porcelain cup but I hope I still get Pretty Princess Points nonetheless.😁
Good Morning Brooke, I Love the Colour coordinated store. Very pretty.😎🤓
Yeah, I love going there
I LOVE YOUR LOVELY GARDEN AND HOME...BOTH ARE SOOO INVITING! THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US!!
Thank you so much!

I can't believe how big the thrift stores are in your area. My Vallue Village hardly has any hard goods. It was fun thrifting with you, enjoy your day!
Trifted in charity shaft I’ve always been a big thing in Canada
What about a small weeping willow for the garden? The cascading look would be an interesting addition
I had a weeping willow in my last house. I absolutely love them. I think I’m gonna do a weeping mulberry.
Good morning Brooke! Beautiful garden...thanks for taking us with you today on your thrifting journey.Enjoy your lunch..🥰👍🦜🌴
Thank you so much for coming along. Appreciate your time.
It’s too bad you do not have the space for a small greenhouse. When you’re columbines start to seed in the next couple years, you will have them everywhere. They are probably one of my favorite flowers for the spring. It’s looking good. I hope it comes together the way that you want.
Never mind the space I don’t have the sun. I’m a corner house and don’t have a backyard. I would love one I mean love one.🌸🩷🍃🧡
I love your videos. Always perks me up! Along with my coffee! That wood bunny is fabulous. If you want to spiff up your stairs, you can always get peel and stick pattern tiles for the risers. Add a kick to the black stairs! If mine weren’t carpeted, my stairs would be black! Take care!❤
I think so very much appreciate your time☕️🍃🌸🐇

Love the lamp . So nice of your subscriber. Thanks for the shopping .❤❤
You are so welcome thank you my friend. Have a nice day.🩷🧡❤️
You do make me smile Brooke😂
As bad as me cleaning as you are going along.
I’m mopping backwards as I go out the front door!
We can’t help ourselves!
Garden flourishing beautifully.
Very best wishes from southern Spain, where it’s baking hot 🥵

Yeah, I can’t help it either. I’m always cleaning. It’s not that I even liked it. It’s just that I don’t like when it’s messy lol
The silver tea service you liked was lovely and I don't believe that the sugar bowl was missing a cover--they don't all have covers.
Well that particular one did it was totally missing the lid ,I googled it was very beautiful. I would’ve bought it. I just wanted the full piece not very often to find them in that good shape.

I’ve never had one return. I’ve had the ostrich return, but never the Boston. I guess it all depends on your zone. I’ve never been that lucky.
I love that little jester frog, he's gorgeous, can't wait to see the café curtain up 😊
Not using my jam, but I couldn’t resist cause he was a frog and I’m not usually into gestures or clowns but this one was a little unique. I use it at Christmas.
The hydrangeas are huge and bountiful this summer in Eastern Ontario. Thanks for explaining that it was because of the mild winter. I had no idea.
I’ve never seen so many beautiful hydrangeas as I have this year. It’s like a show everywhere you look.🍃🌸🌺🦋
Your shade garden is lovely and so good for clooling the climate around your home. We can see that the birds love it.
So nice of you
Hi, Mamma Brooke. Thank you for the video. Really enjoyed it. Have a great week❤

Good morning, my friend. I hope you’re well. Yeah, the frogs usually not my jammy either I hesitated, but there was just something about him. That was different not into justice usually at all.
So nice to spend a whole hour with you, Brooke. Absolutely love the little lamp!
Oh thank you so very much. I’m glad you came to visit the lamb is gorgeous🌸🍃
Good morning. Brooke. Its a beautiful morning 🌄 here. Overcast. We've been in a heatwave supposed rain here this Thursday coming. 🎉 we sure need the 🌧. The 🍒 on our tree never last. All the birds and squirrels eat them before they get ripe. 😅 i keep thinking 🤔 about what your going to put on that bare spot now hmmm. Whatever you choose i know will be beautiful. We had a few trees taken out, also. They were way to big. Now its bare. Were thinking about what to put there also. Maybe go to the bird Habitat nursery garden we have here and see what's a native tree to our environment . Which will make for easy care. 😊 i really love your ferns. We bought 2 and i want to go get 2 more. There doing wonderful. I also got a potato vine. Its growing very quickly Wow taking off. We put it againt our gazebo. What is only used for plant's now. The wind ripped the material right off. And it was worn. 😅 what size is the picture for the flamingo ? My hubby and i use to get picture frames at Michael's for 60% off it was really cheap i remember and it looked quality 👌 😉. I enjoyed the video this morning. I had my coffee and a muffin, while watching . Im going to a smaller thrift store today. There having everything in the store $1.00 . They want to clear it right out for there fall inventory. 🍃 🍂 🍁 🍃 🍂 our leaves have been falling off for about 2 weeks already. So the first rain more will fall. 😮 have a great day Pretty Princess 👸 💕 💗 💖 💓 the 🐸 is so 😍 cute. 🙏 ❤ ✌️ 😊
Thanks for sharing all that with me. I never even thought about Michael’s. I know the place at the street for me that does it extremely expensive but yeah if you can get 60% off, that would make for a cheap day at the park for sure yes potato vines do grow beautiful don’t they? I think we’re in for as we had such an early spring. I’m seeing some lace falling too. I think it’s a little too soon for me ha ha I’m a summer girl through and through. I think fall is beautiful, but I’d rather hang out in the sun than in the cold, have a beautiful day. We’ll see you tomorrow.
I enjoyed your thrifting video today! I loved the Santa picture, very unique! Have a great week!
I had that Santa picture. I bought it at a grocery store in the early 1990s and then I got rid of it. I guess after my daughter didn’t believe in Santa anymore I just love all the children though.
Your garden is just beautiful.
Thank you so very much. I appreciate it.
I love that lamp that was gifted to you, georgous!
Yes, it’s very beautiful. I saw one in the Habitat for Humanity store. And my subscribers taught in the video so I have one I’ll send it to you so so nice of her.
Great day thrift store shopping! Love the wooden bunny and the crystal lamp one of your subscribers sent is gorgeous! Garden looks beautiful!
Thank you so much!
A new pink shade would be so nice on that crystal base lamp ! Loved shopping with you! ❤
I think so too! If I can find the right one has to be pretty princess for sure. First I gotta figure out where I’m putting it lol you know that’s always the problem.🍃🌸
Thanks for taking us along with you. I really enjoy your RUclips channel.
Thanks for watching! I truly appreciate it❤️❤️
Beautiful crystal lamp, enjoyed shopping 🎉
Thanks for visiting
My beautiful Mom loved Japenese Maple trees & a sgrub called Acuba " shade loving.... hydrangeas 💚💚💚💚💚
A lot of people love them I like hydrangeas too. We had a beautiful show this year all over.
Hi Brooke ! great day you had, I loved the silver tea set, I have never seen shape like that! The crystal lamp is beautiful even with the black shade ,lucky you ! Blessings Paula
Yeah, it was very beautiful. I really don’t need one either. I don’t even entertain anymore, but they’re so pretty. The crystal lamp on the other hand is absolutely gorgeous.
I really enjoyed watching this video today.your garden is really coming along beautifully l think some lady's mantle would be good in there .....they are pretty! I liked that Santa picture as well and that crystal lamp was that ever nice.bye for now
Oh, I have lots of it around my garden. I love it the Santa picture. I had it in the 90s and early 2000s so brought back a lot of memories for me and the crystal lamp is very special. Thank you.🌸🦋
Everything looks so lovely. You work so hard.
Thank you, my friend. I appreciate it.🌸🍃🌺
Hello Brooke, oh my goodness you have been a busy bee! I was exhausted just watching you throughout this video. Lots of pretty things to look at, especially the silver. I agree with you though, the sugar container needs to have its lid. And that stunning crystal lamp? Well, if you ever wish to part with it, let me know and I’ll be on the next flight out 😅. It is exquisite. Just like your decor. The world would be a much nicer place if there more people like your lovely and generous subscribers. They just love you to bits lovely lady. Catch you in the next one. Ciao Bella.
Thank you so very much. I truly appreciate all your kind words and your kindness. I do have the best subscribers. I will save myself. Thank you for being part of it. Have a beautiful day and don’t forget to make your life pretty princess all the time, loves🍃🌸🦢
Hi Brooke! I so love your entire backyard. It’s like a sanctuary. Thank you for a

Thank you so much! Post in a treehouse tomorrow thank you for
I have gone to hobby lobby and bought wooden pieces to make your own size frame and you can paint them…easy to do….
We don’t have a hobby lobby I live in Canada, but I love hobby lobby
And your garden is absolutely gorgeous!!!!
Thanks so very much. I’m pretty happy with it. Hopefully next year it feels in nice.
Good Morning Brooke 👑 🐝
Your crystal lamp is beautiful, very pretty princess. You are one lucky lady. We all love following along. I bet most of us see stuff and think of you 🩷
Side note :I really like that you changed the red mulch for black.
Hope you have a relaxing day 🌞✨️🌸🐇🏡🐦🌿
Good morning! Yes, I’m surely blasted aren’t they? Thank you so much for being part of my journey here and yes, I’m very happy with the black mulch too.🍃🌸🌺 it was a suggestion from a friend and I gave it a try didn’t like it.
Hallo Brooke Nice too se you. What a lovely trifting today.That bunny is pretty.The weather is realy crazy,its hot and rainy and windy.Have a wonderful day.😊❤❤
Thank you! You too!

I love your nails. Great video, loved watching .
Thank you so much 🤗
You have such a pretty smile! Love thrifting with you!
Thank you so much!! so kind of you to say thank you
When you picked up that plate at 17:39 showing the coronation of King George VI in 1937, I thought “that’s probably worth big bucks.” I was wrong. The going rate seems to be around $10.00 and the sticker price at the thrift store is $9.99.
Well, there you go boy I need you to come shop with me🌸🍃🌺
Morning Ma. 🦋🙏🌸😘🙏🌹Checking out the video as I normally do every Sunday morning Lol.😍 LOVE YA Have a wonderful day. 💕💕
Hey Ma. Ok cutee pa tootee 😂Your manny pedi is super cute. I noticed it 👀right away. That color red is so pretty. ❤️ That swan with the butterfly 🦋.. I just knew you were going to get.. lol but fooled me. Your good. You didn't.
Wow your VV is closing😢 That one was a good store. We Have Value City where I live and they are NO WAY as good as your in Canada.
Good morning! Yeah, I just thought I didn’t need it. It’s pretty as it was. It was very cute though. Must say yeah I’m gonna miss that value village. It’s a great one. Have a beautiful Sunday.🩷❤️🧡
Thank you for sharing your garden with us! Love it! Maybe a cinnamon fern would look nice in your garden, they get 2-5ft high and 2-3ft wide and they grow upright. Maybe one of those would work where you just removed your tree. I still vote for a hydrangea in that space, to me hydrangea are so romantic, pretty princess. Have a nice week!
I’ve never seen a cinnamon fern. Is it shade as well? Sounds lovely. I think I’m gonna pass on the hydrangea because it’s just so many in my neighbourhood gonna do something. Maybe we pain or something when I get there I get there always work in progress. thanks for the suggestions appreciate it. I’m gonna Google the cinnamon fern 🩷🧡❤️🌸🍃🦋
@@mamabrooke The cinnamon fern works in full shade. Searching for a new plant is always so exciting, have fun with your search. Good luck with the rooms as well!
I love MOSS as dry as WEST TEXAS is i have some!! By bk porch....🇺🇸🇨🇱🌵🌞💚💚💚
Yeah, I like moss too. Find it very beautiful.
Do you put some kind of stair treads on painted surfaces? I ask because painted stairways can be very slippery. I would hate to see you fall. You're too precious to all of us.
No, I don’t put anything on it
Good morning, Brooke. We definitely need rain in my area. I love the wooden bunny, my favorite, for sure.🩷
Mine too! thanks for watching. We had a big rainstorm this week. This video went up before that with the flood in Toronto. I am OK but a lot of people weren’t and we’re out of power for 10 hours.
Like your garden & nails…
I think you so very much Patty 🍃🌸
Sunday ready hey to u!
I hope you enjoy and posting the treehouse update tomorrow and see you Wednesday🧡🩷❤️🌸
I've seen silver tea sets with the sugars with and without lids. If you look at sugar bowl it will have a smoothed interior lip for the lid to sit into. I was told this by an antique dealer once when I was checking out sets.
Yeah, I googled the site and the store did come with one. I know some come without, but this one actually came with a lid. I found the whole set from the maker on the bottom.
Most male birds/animals are prettier than the females. That frog jester is adorable! And I understand the struggle to find a certain size frame. Especially an off size one. Been there, done that. Garden is looking lovely. Tfs. Have a blessed day. Ciao!
Absolutely the male bird is prettier than the female. Yeah I thought it was a pretty cute little jester too not really into them a lot but I couldn’t refuse because it was a frog. Yeah I’ll find what I frame. I guess when it’s supposed to be or I’ll just use what I have I’m not really there yet. I’ve been working on finding a tree for the front. I think I got one thanks.🍃🌸🦋🧡🌺❤️
Good morning Brooke, I'm intrigued with you sharing you once had a store. What type of store did you have? I like that VV location. I can't believe it's closing.
I had a shabby chic cottage Co store up north in northern Ontario. Yeah it’s been a favour of mine for about 20 years Toronto is just turning into one big concrete jungle condos everywhere
The frog will be great at Christmas. So whimsical.
For sure🍃
Hey Brooke!!! Your hostas are reaching for the sun!!!!!
The little bit they get I guess they are. They don’t really like sun anyways.
The spot that you have that gets some sun you can put a Peony there. I know how much you love them. I just got one from Lowes that is shade and partial sun.
I have roses there they’re struggling ,,,sun only a couple hours a day. Absolutely my favourite flower the peony.🍃🌸🍃🌸🌺💕
A mild winter and wet spring mean a bloom fest for hydrangeas 🩷🩵 Kimberly fern is gorgeous 😍 I love the pop of pink on the porch!
Yes, it definitely showed a beautiful show this year for everybody🌸🍃🌸🍃🌸
🎚️🇺🇸🇨🇱🌵 ENJOYING
From Texas USA...
we have cooler temperature bc of Hurricane in Gulf of Mexico....don't think Galveston devestated we r 12 hrs away ....
Lovely summer USA grateful 🇺🇸
Brooke love ur video s ..from Karen
I hope everyone stays safe thanks so much, Karen
@@mamabrookethanks
Brooke has you thought about some flowering ground cover to cut down on weeding and to cover the open spaces, I like all your plants perhaps more hydrangea and a peony.
I have hydrangeas and I don’t go peonies cause I don’t have the sun in my shade garden
The female cardinal is gorgeous, she's an olive green with a muted red head. The reason the female is not as striking as the male is because that's nature's way of protecting her and her babies. Camo! The males are striking to attract the females.
Yes, I know very much that the females are darker than the males. I love birds.
🎚️🇺🇸🇨🇱🌵 bet even from Hurricane .. amazing. ..we have t heard if any hurt bad.hope not but we r LONG way away from Gulf'.. amazing how our beautiful Earth 🌎 works 🙏🙏🙏🌞
Well, I hope not too yeah, mother does some things doesn’t she?🌸🍃
Great video!!! I have a question about your Cafe curtain for your back door. Did you consider doing a valance at the top of the door, just on the door, so that you could display the cute frog motif clearly, that is stretched out. And then hang the striped part of the curtain on the rod at the midpoint of the door downwards. That way it wouldn't block too much light from your pantry or the view of your lovely terrace garden AND the frog motif would be clearly visible. Otherwise you won't see the frogged motif unless the curtain is closed and covering your window and light... My suggestion would involve cutting the panel into two pieces to separate the fragile section to allow you to apply it over a valance and attach valance at top of door. Alternatively you could make valance as I have suggested, but with about a 2-3 inch return on either end and hang the striped curtain from the rod under the valance so that it hangs down to the bottom of the door window -- it would, in this case be into sections hanging g straight down on the right and left sides of the door window and would only block the view and light if/when u pulled the two panels closed to/at the centre of the window. Otherwise when open, the two striped panels would just hang neatly on either side of the window in the door. Just good for thought...
I was trying to block some of the light because it gets really hot in there and I’m very happy the way the curtains turned out. I didn’t really want the actual café halfway mark because the sun is very intense there. It’s like a 30Celsius on a good day and pantry not good for food now it’s down to 23 just a curtain.
Hey you!!! FYI:CHANGE THE COLOR OF YOUR HYDRANGEA BY PLANTING PENNIES AROUND IT BY THE ROOTS!!!! Have fun!!!!
Yeah, someone else told me that but we don’t have pennies here in Canada anymore, so they’re hard to come by. Maybe when my daughter comes from the state she’ll have a few.
My mom's Niagara Falls jewellery box next to the bunny. Hers is older than me and I'm 50!
Aww 🥰
Everything looks beautiful in your garden, We are a zone 5 here in Wisconsin, the south is a 3 I think.
I noticed you dont have any grip non slip strips on any of your steps, just sayin, ya know for safety, you cant afford to flip on your tooker! Heaven forbid.
That bunny, the brown wood one you liked looked very Asian in style or Indian may have gone in your Bohemian room makeover. Ohhh good you got it!! LOL❤
I finally found an affordable crane pillow cover, the ones I wanted were all over 70 bucks, Im not paying that, this one was 24 so that made me happy, I will all the heavy gold fringe later.
What I do if I find a frame that is too wide is I put foil Christmas wrapping paper behind, I have a roll of a beautiful green and all my pics have that on the edges so they all match plus it gives it a little sheen which I like. I also have a beautiful pink and another of different blues. My prints come from Australia so Im not cutting those down. Id rather buy bigger frame and add pretty foil paper behind❤
That was a gorgeous silver set, what do you think happened to the sugar dish cover? I wonder about stuff like that, sometimes it gets packed in different boxes, and put out in different isles. Oh you looked, ok LOL! I always comment as the video plays or I forget what I want to say. That frog is adorable!!!🐸🌱
Well, I’m in zone six we do have pretty harsh winters though yes I’ve seen the paper behind but with this it’s not an expensive print. It’s on a piece of canvas so it’s a little touching go. I think it needs to fit it frame or mad at one. I don’t even think it I want a mat on it but anyways it’ll come when it comes. I’ll get there no great rush no emergency. I have no clue about the sugar covered lid. I believe you’re right. It might’ve been in another box with some other stuff. A lot of people are saying they don’t come with it at this one I know actually did I’ve seen them without I like it with I like the sugar up or can I say everyone has the preference right have a beautiful day thanks for stopping in. I appreciate your time.❤️🩷🧡
Gosh mama Brooke.. how do you manage your stairs without a hand rail on the wall??you must be fit💪🫶🇬🇧😁
I don’t have any problems. I took it off because it’s only 2 feet wide. I run up and down them all day maybe in my 80s I’ll have to move downstairs to the main floor for now. I’m good.
If you like the shade are you able to fabric paint a shade? Again I love your flamingos print, looking forward to how you stage in your home..great video as always.
I’m not sure what you’re asking about the shade?
My mother's tea service was almost exactly like that and didn't have a cover for the sugar.
Yes, some don’t. I understand that but this one did ,my mother had one without it to, but I like it with the lid and that one did I have a lid because I googled it in the store .
It’s OK. I just look for one that does.
Love your thrifting. Anxious to see your Ralph makeover. What happened to the lady who used to meet you at the thrift store? You helped decorate her house once. Hang in there and keep it pretty princess.
Oh, that’s not coming to the fall and hopefully it turns out well and I might do a Ralph Christmas too. If the fall one goes well, I can recycle some of the things I’m gathering into that too love always have a beautiful day. Oh, I haven’t seen her since April. I believe she’s met some other friends on the other side of town and preoccupied, which is all good. We only met online anyways we were just Thrifting buddies maybe will run into each other again who knows.
How about another hydrangea inthat big space by the tree adjacent to the columbine? If you put a bushy low plant where you yook out the Tred you won't be able to see the lower height plants behind it -- between it and the fence...?
I actually just bought a tree yesterday, but thank you very much for the suggestions. I appreciate it.
Crop the legs close to the feet then line them up and mod podge them down, kinda like lining up wallpaper
🩷🍃🌸
I want to go thrifting so bad. Maybe tomorrow. I am always at work. I want to remodel my camper. I get tired of seeing the same thing every day. Think that I am going to paint. Going to look for a couple of chairs for the living room tomorrow. ❤
I’ll go tomorrow I don’t know your age or wear your Thrifting but Tuesday here is cheap day fun to remodel the camper🍃🌹
@@mamabrooke Good morning! I'm not sure about sales at the thrift stores. We have several here around me. But, I work all of the time and don't get the chance to go very often. I haven't seen a Salvation Army in several years. Not sure if they even exist anymore here in the states. I have to drive about an hour to a Goodwill. Which all thrift stores have jacked up their prices so that you can go elsewhere and purchase it for around the same price new. I am going out to shop today. I hope that you have a wonderful day and happy thrifting!❤
🎚️🌎🇺🇸🇨🇱🌵🌎vety interesting.....
