You deserve your own show on HGTV! You are so talented!!!

Thrifting is so much a matter of luck and serendipity, and no one should forget that you're a professional, so naturally you tend to be "luckier" than some of us. These are great tips! "This is why we thrift, ladies and gentlemen!" <chuckle>

I think this is one of the most helpful videos I've ever watched. Thanks so much.

Using that hamper lid as a pendant light - so smart!

Hi Fia. A strand of beads sold to jewelry makers in bulk is called a hank. That is not meant to be a necklace, meant to be separated for jewelry, tassels, etc..

For the headboard, i like the whiteish one

[Purplemoons]

I agree, you are very talented. You see simple things and transform them into beautiful decor. That is a special talent.

Great video, Fia! You gave very good tips as well. I have to share this. Went to a Habitat Restore this past week. Was looking for items for one of my children. Was about to leave when I spotted a partial roll of gorgeous upholstery fabric. It was marked $15.00. But I got it at 30% off at $10.00. Came home and unrolled the fabric to measure the yardage. I have 16 full uncut yards and some scraps that I did not measure. So each yard cost me 62-1 /2 cents!! Since I can sew, I am now looking for something to upholster now. I always check fabrics and draperies to use for sewing projects. Have a great week! Looking forward to your bedroom makeover.

I like the taupe fabric for the headboard

I like the white headboard for the room make over

I love white. For some reason I feel it looks more expensive 😊❤

Great video! I've been thrifting for 50+ years and still learned from your pro tips. 
The white garland beads appear to be a stone called Selenite. It's absolutely gorgeous and must have cost a fair bit when it was purchased new. Major score at $3! If they are Selenite, it's a fragile stone. It scratches easily, so it should be in a place where it won't get handled very often.

Thank you for mentioning the one-in-one-out rule, and that it's okay to leave empty handed! ❤ I love your videos!

[theamethyst]

This is the type of channel I’ve been looking for. Most people who like decorating have a very antique type of style but I like a modern style!

[randkamal]

You are very talented 👏👏
Your husband and family are so lucky to have you 💓 💖 ❤️

I jump when I saw u posted a I was the first like…that is how much i love ur channel……I find u talented …..hello from Montreal, Canada

[MsKatillac]

Unlike other commenters, I prefer the brown for the headboard recover! It will show less dirt and if you paint the walls a lighter color, it will pop. As for those stone beads...they usually sell stone beads like that for jewelry making on a string. I think these were just bigger stone beads to use as a single focal bead on a necklace but it is cheaper to buy a string of beads if you are an avid jewelry maker. Kind of like buying in bulk. Great tips!

Honestly, one of your best videos I’ve seen to date.

I found one panel of 108 inch white velvet curtan and did sew on two sides tussel and now I'm using for bed throw. Its beautiful !!! Can use also for a sofa cover or in future may sew two pillow covers ! Thank you for you tips Fia !
