Hello!
I'm Lauren - a mom of two little ones, living in Vermont and I'm on a mission to connect old items to new owners. I'm just getting started but I don't know what's taken me so long! I love old pieces with character & history just as much as I love saving things from the landfill - reselling vintage home decor is the perfect fit for me!
Join me as I source and haul items, and maybe even refinish or repurpose some things here and there.

Antique Store Closing Sale! | Vintage Home Decor Thrift Haul
Would you have fun in a place like this or are you already overwhelmed just imagining it??
I've been sitting on this footage for a few weeks and when I tell you I can't wait for an opportunity to go back and explore this store more...
Now that I have a good feel for the sections of the store and the incredible variety they have, I'd have a better idea of where to focus and more slowly take it all in next time!

มุมมอง 71414 วันที่ผ่านมา
This week I found a mid-week yard sale and tacked on a visit to the Habitat Restore while I was out. Check out what I picked up on that outing, plus a bonus haul from a community yard sale a few weeks back. If you're interested in what it's like trying to stand up a vintage home decor shop, I'm sharing more about how it's going for me in the first half of this video! Let me know if you'd prefer...

Come along as I go a bit crazy at Vintage Inspired, a booth-style vendor shop in Burlington Vermont. I grabbed a ton of great home decor that I've been listing on my new etsy shop to share with you.

Productive day resetting after travel! | DITL on Maternity Leave
มุมมอง 313 หลายเดือนก่อน
A day-ish in my life as I unpack and get re-oriented at home after our week away! This was ultimately a productive day of unpacking, starting laundry, tidying our living spaces and getting myself out on a walk as I continue to try to infuse habits into my routines on maternity leave. Bonus tip on how I manage "kid art" for our toddler!

Week in the Life on Maternity Leave | Getting out of the house & kids THRIFT haul
มุมมอง 514 หลายเดือนก่อน
Hi! I'm Lauren - a working mom of 2 living in Vermont. Join me as I come out of the newborn fog by trying to leave the house more, resulting in a mega thrift haul for my kids.
Your voice is very relaxing 😌
How much for the butterfly? My son passed away and I feel like he connects with me that way. I been looking for one and no luck yet
I’m so, so sorry for your loss. Could you please email me at definingordinary@gmail.com? I’d love to get the butterfly your hands!
I think those are called dessert bowls
Your sound is too low
Hola soy nueva en tu canalLa Mariposa y el ganso estan lindos
Thank you for watching!
If you go back you have to get that background doll to the left of the ashtray haha. My favorite thing in the haul is Mothra at 18:00.
I’m not sure I’d be able to sleep knowing that doll was in my garage (bc it won’t enter my house) waiting for you to take it
I just thrifted one of those green glass vase goblet thing at good will for $2 yesterday!
Firing on all cylinders haha. The videos don’t stop! That picture holder thing, initially I thought it was one of those things you put on a plate to hold hard shell tacos upright and got excited. Hahaha shoutout to Grandma!
Good finds! I share your excitement and enthusiasm! I resell in Massachusetts and sourcing is the best part! I see you're in Burlington! My hometown. Good luck with your new venture! I look forward to following along!
Thank you, Diane!
Too much talking. Gets boring very fast. I lost interest quickly. Show what you bought as you talk??
Blueberries remind me of my dad. He loved blueberry muffins. I enjoyed your video.
I am so glad I found your TH-cam!! I have enjoyed it so much... And just this week I have been thinking about starting a shop with all my thrifted finds but have just been so scared to! Your video is giving me confidence to start. BTW…that Iroquois plate is from where I live in Syracuse. :)
I’m so glad I can be the nudge you needed! I was so intimidated by shipping and getting pricing right (among many other things…) but I’m so glad I started and am just figuring it out as I go. I’m only about a month in at this point so we can be in it together!
@@DefiningOrdinary yes!! I think I will start this weekend. I have to just try! Shipping intimidates me, too…Thanks so much for your encouragement.
@thebumper924 let me know where to find you when you set up your shop!
@@DefiningOrdinary ok! Now I have to pick a name for it. Lol
Water wheel and I love everything!
I’m so glad! And thank you - one of those words that came to me as soon as I didn’t need it any more, of course!
Hey Margaret! I'm not sure if it was a fluke, but I see a comment in my email that isn't showing up on TH-cam. In case you're interested in the pillow, I'm sharing the link to the item on my shop - let me know if you have questions! definingordinary.etsy.com/listing/1777770015
Your home looks lovely in the shot! Would you consider sharing some clips of your space? Thanks for the video! I love thrifting!
Thank you, and definitely! I have some house projects I want to get to soon that I plan to share too
Key word for the milk glass ashtray...the dots are called hobnail. Great purchases!
I hard a hard time hearing this 😢
You getting so excited about enamel coffee filters made my day hahaha. You probably could get a decent eraser for the pencil marked prices in the books. I like that the books are strictly aesthetic choices, out here judging the books ONLY by the covers haha. They work for that visual pop though! I think I’m most into the brass looking pitcher thing as my personal fave outta this collection. Don’t fall for the classic blunder that gets me every time, where I trick myself into thinking I’ll sell things but then end up just keeping everything haha. Glad to see a new video and now I gotta shop hahaha
Wow, I can’t unsee them as coffee filters now. But I still love them!
The coffee pot beeping made me think something was going off in my kitchen haha. Glad I wasn’t the only one facing travel issues, I’m going back to Visalia CA in a few weeks so I’m eager to see what city I’ll get stuck in overnight. Bowl of goldfish isn’t the worst you could do for dinner, either haha. Been there.
One from the archives I see! Hearing about those flights and knowing how the travels worked out for all of us was definitely fun haha. I love the idea of buying clothes knowing you won’t like them, and regretting it right away. I got the same thing happening, just not usually with clothes haha.
I’m probably running on about a 3 week delay but figure you, as my only loyal viewer, won’t mind 😂
I know the feeling, I should start walking or something now that I’m old and basically don’t do anything haha. I’m glad your coffee intake is where it needs to be.
Gonna come back and watch this over the long weekend, stopped by quickly to leave a thumbs up 👍
🎉🎉 major props for Futura font haha
