You are so talented ❤ i get so many inspirations from you both 😊 i am still enjoying summer but will soon decorate for autumn ❤ god bless you all!

Dear friend, I can not wait to watch your decorate for the holidays, your style is always so beautiful. Let's do another collab together when you get ready. You always inspire me with and have the most wonderful vignettes. God bless you my dear friend!
@@YVYOU that means so much to me 🥹🥹 thank you so very much for your sweet words! You are always so kind 🙋♂️🫶🌸🌼🤍 a collab would be such an honor for me, you are do talented and I get so many inspirations from you ☺️😘😘
Michele so glad your poison ivy is better. Your vintage box is wonderful. You did great on putting a collection together for it. It’s never too early to decorate for any season. I try to start early on them because it takes me much longer to decorate than it used to😊. I love seeing y’all’s past decorating and love seeing the current. It’s always beautiful and inspiring. Love and blessings sweet friends. 🧡💛🤎💛🧡
Sweet Jean, I have been coming in from the garden and scrubbing up with Dawn dish soap, and I hope to keep it away for a long time. Thank you for your sweet comments, you are always in my thoughts when I'm out and about looking at thrifted things because I'm always looking for some treasures like you have. I'm just so blessed that you're my friend, you truly are a blessing to so many of us and I just adore that you share your home and garden with us each week. I am behind on videos again, please forgive but I'll catch up and comment because I have been watching when I can. Love you dear friend!
Goodness…..so I found your channel today and watched the one for pre fall and I loved it so much. That I am going to do a marathon of your channel. I am not a fan of so much orange and red color and pumpkins - even though Fall is my favorite time of year. Maybe because I live in Southern Arizona and we don’t have colors like that here in the desert so those colors seem a little out of place here. But your color is so subtle…it’s lovely, and inspires me to add a little of that to my house..thank you for sharing your beautiful talent.
Sweet Karyn thank you sooo much!!! It really is a blessing to have you here and I"m thrilled that you enjoyed my video. I'm really enjoying the moody vibe of the green and brown with touches of gold. I'm sorry but I will have some color in my home shortly but hopefully if you watch I can spark an idea that you could create in your neutral color pallet. I'm so happy to hear from you, thank you for leaving me a comment. God bless you!
Hi Michele! ❤ What a great idea! I love your box idea, so many beautiful treasures! I really enjoyed watching your video and getting some ideas and inspiration for my own fall decor! I hope you’re well my sweet friend! Love you! ❤❤
Loving these gorgeous Fall views. So much inspiration!! 🧡🍁 I can’t wait to get started this year. My daughter is getting married September 1st and September 2nd I’m pulling out the totes. Haha. I usually start mid August but I think there might be too much going on this year. 😁
Congratulations to your daughter!!! I have no doubt you will help make everything extra special and beautiful. I'll be anxiously waiting to see what you do because it's always amazing! Thank you for watching Tammy!
Love the curated box idea (you have great taste), that is a lot of work, I hope it is beneficial for both you and your buyer. May I suggest packing and weighing the box ahead of the video, people are not going to want to bid freely without knowing what the shipping is going to be. I'm an ebay seller shipping from Florida, so I can say that shipping prices are way different to Alabama than California from here. Your fall inspo is 😍😍
Thank you so very much for your kind insight, I really needed some help on this one. It's all kinda new to me. I will certainly do that because you are right, shipping and really kill the deal on some things. I will certainly help out the buyer of this first box but again thank you for your kind help. I truly appreciate you!!! God bless you!
Thank you so much for bidding, what a blessing you are. I believe the bid is at 30 at this point and I see you just said $35. I will pin the highest bid in the comments. Thank you sweet friend. If you win this box I will contact you here and leave my email so I can get your address. Love and blessings to you!
Good morning my beautiful sweet friend. So thankful you are better. Oh my sweet friend I think you need to put a claimer out saying Jeanie you do not need to bring another thing in your house. Haha you have to many beautiful things. I started decorating yesterday for fall because Ashley said Stella could come early and if she does come on her due date I will be just getting back from Carls. 98 and I am putting out fall. Tell Easton I miss seeing his sweet smile. You girls and Easton have a great weekend. Looks amazing.😊
I think I need the same disclaimer! LOL!!! Oh I'm getting so excited for your precious Stella to get here. I'm sure your gorgeous fall looks amazing and if it helps you dream of cooler days, then YAY!!! It's been horrible here with the heat. Easton told me to give you a big hug! We love you sweet friend!!!
Everything you do is amazing! Love the box! I say to each their own, when one decides to decorate for fall is up to them, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, MY HOUSE, My rules! I pay the bills the house payment and taxes so I’ll do as I please!! Not everyone sees things the same as far as when to decorate and we need to learn that perfectly ok, let people do what makes them have joy and comfort! I usually start my fall decorating around 2-3 week of August, when school starts to me that’s kind of kicks off fall! 🍂🍁 Can’t wait to see what your plan of for fall this year!!!!
Amen Garnet!!! Well said sweet friend! I'm ready to get started....I always tell myself I have an excuse if anyone says anything....I'm a content creator...early is what we do!!! LOL!!! I know your home will be decorated gorgeous, you are such a talented decorator. You'll have to share your home with me when you get it finished. I can't wait!!!
@@YVYOU I absolutely will!!! And yes, I love it when the creators put out early seasonal decor videos!!!! Love the insportaion!!! I’m very appreciative of the selflessness of you all sharing your home and decor ideas!!! ❤️
Thanks Michelle. Yours and Cheryl’s home decorated beautifully in the past for Fall. I’m sure it will be again this Fall. Look forward to it. Thank you for the scripture. I needed it. God bless sweet friend. 🤗
Thank you so much sweet friend, I'm so excited to get it all out and get started. Hoping I can come up with some fun new ideas! Thank you for watching! Hope your week is equally blessed!
Sweet friend you won the box, if you will contact me with my user name, youniquely vintage you @ gmail . com with no spaces, I will get your address and let you know what the shipping will be. Thank you so much for bidding on this box. God bless you sweet friend!
Hello Michele! I loved this stroll down memory lane. I really love decorating for both Autumn and Christmas! In your 2023 video, can you tell me where you got the pumpkins on the sideboard in your dining room? I love those. Your curated box has some really pretty items. I am curious to see maybe fall and Christmas boxes! Have a beautiful week ahead. 🧡💛🧡
Thank you so much for watching Debbie! Those pumpkins are some of my favorites. I found some at a florist shop one year and then at really neat gift shop in Texas. I haven't seen them anywhere else because I'm always looking. I been looking for Christmas and Fall for the boxes...hopefully I'll find some neat things. Thank you so much for watching...God bless you!
Tonda I think that is my favorite thing to do is take what I have and use it in new ways each time for a different look. I'm excited to share what I do this year. Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much Elizabeth, friend we are so honored to have you here. I'm so humbled by your sweet comment. Welcome and thank you so much for watching!!!
What a great idea on bidding for the boxes! You did great collecting such lovely items. I have an idea to make sure people know what the high bid is but it will take a bit of work. You could pin the comment with the current high bid so that when people comment they see the pinned comment before typing their bid. It would be a hassle if the bidding goes fast because you'd be updating a lot but it would make it easy on those bidding to not have to scroll through and hope they are correct on the high bid. Great video, I always love your home, especially for Fall!
Jen I was thinking the same thing, so thank you for mentioning that to me, I've had a very busy weekend but I will certainly try to do that from this point on. Trust me any help or advise is a blessing. We will see how this goes, I'm not sure but it was fun trying something new. Please forgive me, I'm behind on watching but I can't wait to catch up on your videos. Thank you for always being here for me, your such a blessing!
Good morning my sweet friend😊 It's so good to see you! And I'm so happy that you're poison ivy has finally cleared up! I love all the pieces in your box. Of course the little Testament is my fav.😉 I also love the crumb tray and I like the patina just the way it is. I really love the doily with the hand stitching, I love anything hand stitched. Hopefully I will be able to bid on a box soon🤞🏼 I know I will love every box you put together.😊 Fall has always been my favorite time of year and I'm definitely going to miss my fall in Tennessee😕 I loved having my morning coffee on my front porch swing looking out across the mountains painted and reds oranges and yellows mixed with green and brown🍁🍃🍂 God's beautiful masterpiece! There's so many places in the mountains you can go to lookouts and look out for miles and miles, and it's just stunning in the fall!! Something we always loved to do but & hopefully we'll be able to take a long weekend and go rent a cabin up high, where we can see all this beauty! Then come in at night, light the fireplace and just get cozy😊 Of course its beautiful in winter too and hopefully we'll be able to catch a snow this year! Here in Florida will have fall when most places are having winter🫤 But at least the temps are really nice November through early April. I can actually enjoy the beach when the temps get in the low 80s to mid-70s😄 LOL I'm just so hot natured! But here I am in Florida, got to obey and listen to what the Lord's leading us to do. I love your Buffet I always! I love how you decorate everything in your home.❤ Your sister's home is beautiful too! The outside table scape is so so pretty and the roses are stunning!🌹 Oh wow.. that mantle is gorgeous!❤ Honestly I rarely buy many new pieces for any season or holiday unless it's Christmas, and I don't buy a lot of new things then.. but I will buy some. I just don't do a whole lot of decorating for Seasons or holidays except Christmas🤷♀️ I just add in pieces to my everyday decor. Maybe a little extra for fall. And of course until we get into our house I won't buy anything unless I see something extra special at a Thrift or antique store😉 Then I'll put it away until we get moved. I love your tablescapes, you always have the best tablescapes Michelle!! Of course I'm excited to see your decorating this year! I always love watching you decorate, it always comes out beautifully! Honestly Michelle I think the bidding on the boxes will work out fine.. personally I think it's a great idea! And like you said try it out and see how it goes.🤷♀️ Thanks for sharing today I love you sweet friend and excited for the videos to come! Hope you have a blessed weekend 🙏🏻❤
Girlfriend.. your scriptures are always pointed right at me! Last weekend we had to go back to TN to finish packing everything & put in storage. We packed all day Saturday & Sunday, finished up just after noon on Monday. But we also had to pack up my daughters home for storage.. she's in a home trying to get help & get her life back on track. She's fallen again. We got A call Friday from a CPS case worker. Someone reported her having the children in a bad situation, we had 24hrs to get there. Praise the Lord we were already planning the trip 🙌🏻 So we now have court ordered custody of the 3 & 5yr olds.. I'm having a really tough time! The oldest has to be signed up for school today. But the youngest, the little girl, i just don't even know what what do! She's VERY hard to manage😢 I love these babies with my entire soul, been with both since the day they were born. They've always lived right behind us so we're very close to them. They both worship their mommy & she's a dang good mom! She always Spent all her time with them, but she let them get out of hand, they were the boss so to speak. The oldest is doing pretty good tho, just typical little 5yr old boy. Praying when he starts school I will be able to work with her more, she's having a hard time on top of everything. She is precious, bless her heart, but so so out of control! Of course I haven't had any type of insurance and haven't been able to go to the doctor. So my hormone medication and anxiety medication has been run out, so it's been super tough having them by myself all day by myself🥴 Because thank God my husband is working full time now🙌🏻 And I do have an appointment Monday at the Social Service office so things are coming together. I just think it'll be easier once we get a house too. So once again my friend I'm asking for your prayers.. just pray that God will open up the doors for us a home. It's been a little tough with all four of us staying with my son, they only have one extra bedroom the other bedroom is the nursery for the baby. LOL Talk about a full house🤯 Also that I can handle situations a bit better😬Lord help my nerves! But more than anything pray for my daughter pray the chains of bondage will be broken and she can conquer her demons once again🙏🏻 And always, always thank you for your prayers!!! Love you my sister!❤
Tammy I love hearing from you, it's like I get to talk to as if we were sitting right by each other visiting. I haven't got to travel much but Tennessee was by far my favorite place I've ever been. I know it felt like you were seeing the brushstrokes of God's hand there but I'm sure you will feel the same in Florida seeing the brushworks of the ocean and all the glorious beaches. Hopefully one day I can visit there. I'm so excited for you and all that is to come. Sometimes we can't see all that God has for us because we hold on so tightly to what we know, what we think is the best. I know God has you all! Love you and thank you for being my friend and for sharing your life with me. Love you dear friend! Hope your week is full of many blessings!!!
Oh Tammy, goodness friend of course I will be praying! Praying for your beautiful daughter, for you a home, for those sweet babies you have and for your health. Hormones are something else, I know too well. I would always tell God, you made me and I know you didn't make me to have to take meds for hormones so fix me God!!! When we battle for our kids, it's tough but keep standing on God's word, and claim the seed of the righteous will not be forsaken. I really felt like I heard God say to me this past week to speak to the problem I have with the word of God and stand in faith trusting that God will calm the storm. Remembering Jesus asleep in the boat the disciples being scared cried out to God. He replied oh you of little faith. That really spoke to me and I hope it will for you too. I love you Tammy and I will be praying for you all. I'm always here if you need me praying!
@@YVYOU Thank You.. you are so previous & your friendship means the world to me! I'm standing & I'm believing.. I'm just so tired & easily frustrated! But I do know Gods got me! Thank you again & i love you girl!❤
You are precious sweet Leslie, thank you for bidding. I really appreciate your kind support. I believe the bid is at 35 now. I will pin the current bid in the comments above. Thank you sweet friend!
I always love your beautiful decor. I'm also very traditional in my color choices, and fall is my favorite season. I have a question, how can I bid on the lovely box you're curated?
I just love all the traditional colors of fall, it's hard to get away from them. Sweet friend if you want to bid on the box you can just look at the comments and make your bid just a little bit higher than what someone has bid. I think the box is at $20. so if you're interested just bid a little bit higher in the comments. The bidding will close Sunday at 10:00pm CST. I'll contact the winner. Thank you for asking and thank you so much sweet friend for watching!
Glad to see your poison ivy is gone! Your box contents are so pretty! I do love antiquing and estate sales but have run out of room…what to do? Some suggest I get rid of something when buying different but I like what I have…I just enjoy too many items. I had to face the maximalist reality this week when I heard a loud crash and discovered one of my upstairs closets had just collapsed from the weight. Was so glad it was not where my Christmas items are stored but the other one with Halloween. Forced to get rid of at least some clothes. What a mess! Your fall decor always looks great! Cheryl does a great job updating her decor for the different seasons! Yes, that outdoor table turned out terrific! I am watching this eleven hours after you posted video and 2,368 have viewed it already. Did you ever dream that many people would watch? They recognize a good thing…blessings.
Diane you are such a blessing to us! I feel your pain on having too much stuff and like you it's so hard to let go of the things we have and collected over the years. I just need a bigger house so I can spread out my stuff. I think that is how I rationalize it all in my head telling myself I can't get rid of my things because I might need more for a bigger house one day. I can dream, can't I! I'm certainly blessed to have so many sweet friends watch our channel, I'm excited to see our channel grow each week. God is so good and I'm thankful for all the amazing friendship we have here. God bless you dear friend! So thankful for you!
@Vnotto 1 minute ago I don’t.think it is too early to start thinking about fall decor. I don’t start decorating for fall until September but I like to get inspiration before the season starts. Summers are busy for us, so i keep decor minimal So by fall I am ready to decorate. I love looking back on your decor from previous years. I too love the outdoor tablescape and cider bar arrangement I noticed last year you didn’t share a lot of Halloween decor and I missed it. But I understand you may have gotten different feedback from others. Your curated box is beautiful!
I always started decorating in September before I started my channel but now I have an excuse to start even earlier. I have loved decorating with vintage halloween and have bought so many fun things that I enjoy but with the world being so wicked these days I really have such mixed emotions. I certainly don't want to offend anyone. It seems to be such a fine line. Maybe I'll get to share more this year. Thank you for watching sweet friend! God bless you!
I understand you don’t want to offend your viewers. I agree there is a lot of wicked in the world, but I don’t sense anything wicked about you or your vintage Halloween decorations
now…while I do love fall, by far my favorite decorating theme, and boy do I go all out>I redecorate my whole entire house four times a year which is quite the task when you’ve got a 3300 square-foot house but anyway fall is my favorite and maybe even above Christmas if that’s possible LOL but I’m not looking forward to fall because I live in a Pacific Northwest and that’s the beginning of harsh weather> long months cool cloudy and drizzly ugly days leading into winter with snow and ice and High winds etc…thats what fall brings…so right now, im thoroughly enjoying summer..August is BY FAR THE BEST month for Wa state!!!
Oh my goodness you have a huge home to decorate, I'm jealous!!! Sounds like a dream and I can only imagine how wonderful you make every part of your house feel. I'm love everything about Fall, but if our weather was like yours I probably wouldn't love it as much. The weather here in Oklahoma is around the low 70-60's, my favorite thing is to see the leaves blowing across the yard. It's just magical! I sure hope you get to enjoy August since it's finally. here. Thank you for sharing about your home, I just love to hear how ya'll decorate. God bless you and thank you for watching.
