    I am challenging myself to shop for only secondhand items for an upcoming bedroom makeover so I headed over to Illinois's LARGEST thrift store to find pieces to thrift flip. Thrift & Dollar has over 25,000 sq ft of unique, vintage and antique finds. From furniture, to decor, to glassware, this store had literally everything. I gave these little nightstands a big makeover and creates a huge piece of artwork, using scrap materials and supplies I already had. These projects were SO budget friendly-can you believe I only spent $36 on both these nightstands and $0 on materials?!

    It turned out fabulous! Can't wait to see the next installment of the this makeover. I like the arches you added- it really updated the pieces and made them "go together" without being all matchy matchy.

    CULTURE | I love that you will include more of your Vietnamese influences (21:14). In any design, it's always nice to check in with our senses and see how we can amplify our vision using those. Vietnam has beautiful bright pink incense for example... so you can include actual incense, a custom holder, or simply add a pop of color to represent incense. For me, design always starts with research which always leads to inspiration! Looking forward to following along!

    • @tinalemac
      @tinalemac  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I couldn't agree more, Hope! ☺️❤️ I love looking at photos that I took from Vietnam for inspiration and to play off the colors. I'd love to see some of your creations whenever you get the chance!

    One of the things I've done to incorporate more of our Filipino heritage in our home is to support Filipino artists, buying prints and photography, so my children feel connected to our roots. I've framed traditional fabrics and fans - from our travels - so my gallery walls have variation. My mum gets emotional when she sees particular pieces, so I feel like I'm doing something right.
    I've also made sure to buy lots of art from POC artists so my children are surrounded by portraits of people who look like us, which they really enjoy 😊

    Re: adding Asian deco, in our kitchen we float-framed a vintage cloth rice bag that was the brand my parents cooked in my childhood. Lk stole that idea from Daveed Diggs/Emmy Raver AD home tour. The yellow bg and red rose logo is graphically strong, as it is personally sentimental.

    Ikea was actually selling those side tables in red for a time, so the person probably bought it that color. :) I love how you're being more intentional about incorporating your culture into your style. Def there can feel a contrast between modern/future styles and traditional ancestral designs but I think with so many designs styles bringing inspo from so many eras lately, it seems totally more doable to incorporate in cohesive ways. And the importance for inspo to not only come from European history.

    I would highly recommend taking the time to create a circle jig for your router - it takes some time to set up and practice with but once you get it down you’ll get perfect circles every single time - it’s a game changer!

  • @lindabell5534
    @lindabell5534 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think like the past art of Asia areas the local scene was the inspiration . And modern should use that same inspiration. In abstract or any city form with it new and old ways. Your art piece was a abstract to me of Japan's mountains and the rising sun of its pieces. I hope you do more. I've seen ones of the old boats and the ships with the city looking far off in by mind thought I have near been there.
