I was born in the last year of the millennial cut off. Although I do cook from scratch, have a garden, homeschool, married, etc. I do sometimes lack the instinct to help my family during illness or baking. My mother worked full time and then later her and my dad divorced. I didn’t have grandparents or elders to teach me about different aspects of life so I’ve just been figuring it out. The more I watch RU-vid and watch homemakers, the more I learn. I’m one of those that need specific measurements at times because I’m totally unaware or inexperienced at certain things. I wish I could’ve had others around me to raise me, but I’m going to make sure my daughters and future kids know the things I don’t! Loved the haul and thank you for all you do, Kelli!

I love your comment about how millennials 'need' a recipe. I am not a millennial, just missed the cutoff for that & I was raised by parents who were very old school compared to THEIR generation. So even tho I am only 43, I do things like a much older generation. I love, love, love my brand new millennial neighbor. She is actually the answer to a very specific prayer that I had prayed for about 4 years. She wants to learn everything "homemaking" & I feel like I have a Phd in that dept by now. I invite her along every time I am doing something 'homemakey' LOL. I actually had her write a list of things she wanted to learn & we have been steadily working thru it. But the one thing that drives me bonkers is that she has no flexibility. Her first question is always, "how long is this going to take?" For something like sewing????? Grrrlll - maybe 5 years! "IDK....as long as it takes", is my answer which drives her up the wall. Then she always wants a 'list' or a specific 'recipe'. sometimes there isn't one! Like she wanted me to make a specific list of all the duties that I feel responsible for as a sahm. I guess I just take those things for granted & I forget that she was NOT raised by a sahm & literally has no idea what her duties should be. I had to txt her an entire list of what I consider part of my 'job'. (which I didn't mind doing, but it took a while) Sometimes you just experiment & enjoy the experience. Sometimes you just figure things out as you go. Or she will get super frustrated if we make mistakes or get interrupted alot or the project just doesn't turn out completely right. I can not seem to convince her that it is all part of the process & that you learn the most from your mistakes. Millennial women, please, just enjoy the ride - don't worry so much about the specifics, experiment, don't think you can control all the variables & that things will always work out perfectly. And if an older woman wants to take you under her wing to teach you something, for goodness sake, don't ask her how long it will take. Makes her feel like you are only committed if it is a quick thing or that you would not enjoy her company if it took longer than anticipated. The best things I have ever learned took lots & lots of time, repetition (& mistakes LOL) & usually NO recipes or instructions.

I loved the cottagecore definition! So fun to actually stop and think about the meaning of a word that I use a lot 😂. Those wooden bowls from SA are gorgeous!

I know, I thought it was so pleasant! And I am still in awe of those bowls!

@sonja-gregstiles2014 4 месяца назад

I didn't know the decor was named that.. I love that. I enjoy your channel so much. I regret that earlier parts of my life were driven by the compulsion to earn a living and not be a homemaker. I came to Christ later in life,, Praise the Lord. The Lord above created me a new life and my husband and I were blessed with a bundle of joy. I have struggled with the need to stay home and be the homemaker and teach my child the ways in a way to Glorify God. Thank you for sharing your journey and reminding me it's never too late for a God giving dream to take root. God bless you and your home.

@vintagebeliever5023 4 месяца назад

Love your haul and your wisdom! I would say my home is 85-90% thrifted. And you are right, if you want to collect something (ex: glass bowls) shop second-hand. I am on the hunt for clear glass jars with silver tops, all sizes , to re-do my pantry and coffee/tea bar. It is so exciting when I find one!! And i have been finding them. 😊 What do you do with all the wooden bowls? Do you think you would ever do a thrifted home tour? Showing all your great finds. Thank you 😊

@restorewithadisha 3 месяца назад

I just commented on another of your videos and I can't help but do it again! When I watch & listen to your videos the Lord brings holy scriptures to mind. Jesus saved me from many things, one was a hyperluxurious lifestyle founded on vanity. I don't believe luxury is a sin, after all, we will be rich for eternity, & God blesses the obedient with riches too. But the idolatry of it is what He took from me. Seeing your resourcefulness & the beautiful & useful things you buy at such a low cost is encouraging. Thank you for sharing these parts of your life with us.

Jelly jars in the shape of drinking glasses is a thing! It’s common in Germany to find pots of mustard that are designed as drinking glasses, and in England you can find a few different products in glass containers intended for reusing as drinkware. It’s a way for companies to get you to keep their product’s packaging around :)

I have two sets of that same cookie press! I found a second and it’s perfect for having a cookie making afternoon with a friend or my stepdaughter. My sons aren’t really interested in cookie making but they do like to decorate sugar cookies at Christmas.

The cottage core aesthetic certainly baited me into the traditional sphere as an 18 year-old girl... Now I'm married and Christian; I never expected that! It's a great influence! Those bowls are such an amazing find! I just read Marie Kondo's book- it has some really wonderful information! She has some odd tips (like not keeping any shampoo or soap in the shower) that were surprisingly helpful. Great video as always!

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

Oh what a cool testimony!! God is so good and how He can use anything- especially beauty!! And that is encouraging you liked the Marie Kondo book. That is fascinating with the shampoo, I would have never even considered doing that. I like out of the box ideas, so I'm looking forward to reading it and trying some of her ideas!

Funny that as I was watching you speak about garlands, I am working on a crocheted garland for Christmas. It looks like popcorn with red “berries” using red wooden beads. I have a photo, but cannot share here. But it will be done for Christmas!!

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

Oh that sounds adorable! And I love that you are already getting on it, how fun!

@Aquietlyfrugallife 4 месяца назад

I love Sarah Ban Breathnach's books. I have several of them. The knife you use to cut your herbs is called a mezzaluna. I have one as well but I don't have the wooden bowl to cut them in. That was a great find!

@cherylpresleigh6403 4 месяца назад

I think your wooden bowls are beautiful! Your Thrifting and antiquing provided some amazing finds. Many many years ago, I used to do a lot of thrifting and antiquing myself. Because of severe arthritis in my knees and neck, I don’t do much shopping these days. I reserve my efforts up until recently work, but now full-time at home, focusing on the garden and the home as well as, my parents. I have recently had thoughts about some of the copper pieces that I gave up years ago and wishing that I still had them. Perhaps one day I will pop into an antique store and find one. Seeing your mini baskets reminded me of a time oh, so long ago, that I did a lot of crafting, and would participate in local bazaars. There was always a “season” for said bazaars, and I would spend the rest of the year working on different things to sell. It was not uncommon that a lot of focus was put into “Christmas”. Back in those days, I don’t recall that battery operated candles were out. So one of the things I did, was fill mini baskets like yours with matchbooks. I would use ribbon on each matchbook to make it look pretty. I used to sell so many of those. Today I don’t even have hardly any candles that aren’t battery operated, and the ones I do have, are put away in a box for ‘in case of an emergency’ so they’re never used. I actually think somewhere I may still have a mini basket or two of those baskets with matches in them lol. Anyway, such a fun video with a little walk down memory lane for me. God Bless You, Kelli. Have a wonderful weekend.

I love the wooden bowls. Such a great find. And that herb bowl is cool! Love it!

@lovinglifefreely 4 месяца назад

Great video! I'm hoping this year to find some ceramic & wooden bowls when I go to garage sales with my husband this spring summer. I am in the process of starting my own sourdough starter & making many more things from scratch. I so appreciate you conviction about women working on the homestead. It is such a blessing God has given us as women to make the house a home & be a blessing to others!

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

How exciting about getting your sourdough going! It's also exciting with the warm weather for garage and yard sale season!

@sharonbeam5581 4 месяца назад

The odd ones are for making bar cookies :) I got one when I was 18 in 1983 and it was old then. I still use it .

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

Oh thank you, I can see that now that you say that! And so cool you got one in '83!

@Beyondjustjen-mw7gt 4 месяца назад

The trap of comparison! It's hard to see clear sometimes - especially when it is with real friends in real time. I went through that trap so many times when we were raising our children. But the Lord saw them as good lessens for my charactor refinemnet. I am so thankful for that. The comparison feel will never completely go away but I can handle it much better now (just to be real) and use it as a tool and a reminder of how His perfect love does cast out all the fear and all the insecurities we have while living in this world. Love all your thrift finds. I have not been to a thrift shop for a while. It may be a fun girl trip to do with my daughter and grand daughter when the weather is nicer🙂

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

Thank you so much for sharing this! And you're right, thrifting/antiquing would be such a fun girls trip idea!

@brittanyfrentz5494 4 месяца назад

This was so much fun to watch! I thoroughly enjoyed the introduction and you sharing your thoughts on homemaking and the comments! I have a hanging basket by our entryway as well for dog-related items. What an incredible find the double boiler and those wooden bowls were!! 🙌🏼🤍

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

Thank you so much Brittany! I'm so glad you liked it! And that is so clever to have a hanging basket for your doggie items in the doorway! I feel like I need several baskets for all the categories 😂

@kaycevictoria9947 4 месяца назад

Yay! I absolutely LOVE watching, learning, listening, alll the things with yall! There are VERY FEW channels that inspire me to create a beautiful life for my family. Other people make me feel like i have to go out & buy things to be happy. When i love the simple, the thrifted, saving random jars.. etc. I come here and i dont feel so alone or like im not good enough.. hope that makes sense! Im pretty sure that the whole feminist boss babe movement was started by men. lol seriously though

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

Thanks Kayce, I'm so glad to hear this!

@katherinemanna1821 4 месяца назад

I’m so glad you posted this video. I tend to get caught up in comparing how much I can get done to the videos of ladies that are homemakers and homesteaders. I have to remember that I am one of the ladies that needs to work (I’m a teacher). I’m lucky that I am able to be home, so I can get some things done, but I do have to work. So I may not be able to get done as much as I would like. And I have to remember that that is ok. I am doing what I can…. Which is more than I was… and is still good progress towards pioneer skills. Thank you so much.

@toadflaxfarm3032 19 дней назад

SCORE on that bowls and especially the big flattish basket you showed last! The craftsmanship is amazingly beautiful! I’m always on the look out for the flat baskets for my garden. My husband likes to say “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure.” So nice to be able to give those items a second home! Great video!

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

Soo true! And I rarely see flat baskets that big. And that is such a good idea using it as a garden basket- I'm thinking picking herbs. It has some stains on it, and in my mind, I could just picture it on a wall, but not with the stains, so I will definitely be using it as a garden basket- you've inspired me, thank you Missy!

@brendajones8948 4 месяца назад

Hi Kelli! I was so happy to see you had posted a new video today. Wow, you did so well at the thrift store, antique store and shopping in South Africa. That double boiler and the cookie press were great finds. Actually EVERYTHING you found was amazing. Isn’t it crazy to think how much money all of that would have cost retail. You are stewarding your home resources well! Thank you for your encouragement about having what brings us joy and is useful for us instead of worrying about keeping up with the Joneses (funny cause my last name is Jones. 😂) It is something that I tried to encourage my kids to do. Blessings to you and Scott this week. Looking forward to the next video!

@amarisdavid2892 4 месяца назад

Where you live makes a huge difference in terms of thrift store quality... BUT it is possible to get a lot of what you need. Whether it means driving a little further for better quality stores or returning to a store over and over until you find what you want, it all just depends on priorities, and what you're willing to do. 95% of my home is made up of gifted items, thrifted things, and free finds.

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

This is very true about quality and price is determined by location!

@BelindaTN Месяц назад

something to consider about containers that are vintage, antique and second hand. Be aware of the safety of them coming in contact with foods. old glazed dishes, pots and drinkware, often contain lead. And prolonged and consitent use can cause lead poisoning. then there is the very real thing that old dishes and pots were often repurposed for other thongs, such as food dishes for animals, nesting containers for poultry, containers for gardening, containers for toxic chemicals and rodent poisoning. cast iron was often used to melt metals (like lead) to make other things with it (such as sinkers for fishing and bullets for their guns). Some of the pots. may have been used for a chamber pot (indoor toilet), so you need to be able to sterilize everything. Which makes me not like using wooden kitchen items unless it is given to me by someone that I know. Same for old cast iron. But I do LOVE wooden kitchen items. Wood cutting boards, wooden utensils, wooden bowls, etc. Also with wood, the type wood that they are made from is important if you want to use them for food. Some wood and their finishes can be toxic.I am older than most of you girls and i have seen what happens to some of the old kitchenware when it was no longer being used in kitchens. it would be put to good use in the barns, workshops and the gardens. I love your videos Kelli. You are such an inspiration.

@TracieSmithpomeranian 4 месяца назад

I take one day a week to limit my use of the internet. As for hot trends, I despise them. Plain and simple. Your home is just that, YOUR HOME. Both of my grandmothers were homemakers. Grandma Smith was a full-time homemaker. Grandma Britton was a part-time homemaker. She worked outside the home, but I have no doubt she still ran a tight ship. I don't remember them having the "hot" new items in their lives. They were happy with an electric washer and dryer. Happiness was electric or gas cook range, not wood range. I have to say this here I am 52, and I have the fondest memories of Grams cooking the two weeks of summer we visited. Yes, she had a washer, dryer, and dishwasher. OMG! It wasn't fancy, but it made her last years with an easier post dinner clean-up. She took care of it. For years, she washed dishes by hand.

@SimplyJeannie 4 месяца назад

Very nice 👍 on the “loot” I do have a question: 🙋‍♀️ Any suggestions for a good place to order loose leaf tea ?

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

Hi Jeannie! Well, what type are you thinking? I have Red and Green Rooibos that we source from South Africa in my shop. But if you were thinking a Green or Black Tea, Azure sells some looseleaf, there's also Farmhouse Teas. You could also look up tea shops where you live and usually they'll let you smell them or sometimes taste them and you can choose which size you'd like. I always think it's a fun experience!

@Free2Praise 4 месяца назад

What lovely finds! Do you have to travel far to your thrift stores or are they nearby?

@homewithkelli 4 месяца назад

Thank you, I was so excited. I found one thrift store I really like that's about 20 minutes from our house and that's the one I'll go to, because they have quality items and keep their prices reasonable!

@kingglizzer 4 месяца назад

Isn't your favorite thing that you brought back from South Africa named Scott? 😅He can even sing "These are a few of my favorite things." God created sand, plants, and trees so that we could have glass, wicker, and wood. Aluminum is shiny and reactive, and quickly oxidizes to have a hard durable coating of aluminum oxide. Your cookie press appears to be anodized, which will never flake or contaminate your dough. Avoid shiny aluminum cookware. That curved blade looks like something from Edgar Allan Poe's “The Pit and the Pendulum,” published in 1842. I was wondering how you hauled all your finds back to the states.

I am in the process of swapping out my kitchen gear and I have some stainless steel mixing bowls that I got for a wedding present 10 years ago that I use. You mentioned "only having plastic or metal bowls"...is the metal an issue because of like heavy metal toxicity? I would love to hear anyone's thoughts and I'm googling it now, too. 😊 Thank you!

@homewithkelli 2 месяца назад

I think stainless steal is great! I was just quoting what someone commented on my post.
