    Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer-Silver and Gold was sung by Burl Ives as an animated snowman during the classic Christmas movie. I am 43 years old and I still watch it every year, even if my son does not want to. It brings back all the magic of Christmas for me as a young girl😊

    There’s an old Girl Scout song that goes: “Make new friends. But keep the old. One is silver and the other’s gold “.

      I remember the song from Camp Fire Girls, but I think the song Linda is remembering is from the movie “Rudolf”.

    When you don’t have storage space for serveware after the party, donate it back to the thrift store and consider the price you paid rent. It’s a win-win!

    When hosting a party and in need of extra items, I purchase from a charity shop and then donate them back. It's an inexpensive rental, recycled and helping a charity again.

    • @d.l.n.7133
      @d.l.n.7133 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Fun trip!
    Leah, you can store large flat trays under your mattress or in your car trunk with the spare tire😂or slid behind a dresser or in a dresser drawer with clothes on top. A big punch bowl can be stored in the back of a cabinet and filled with small things you dont use often or at the top of a clothes closet filled with hair things or scarves or out of season socks or rolled up belts etc etc. Or set upside down and used as a plant stand Or on top of the fridge to store rolled up dish cloths and kitchen towels and scubbies. Or depending on the cost just used once or twice and redonated.

    Although Rudolph’s song Silver and Gold was about a Christmas Tree, Make New Friends and Keep the Old was a song used in Girl Scouts and other girls clubs (in the 60s?) I thinkl those 2 songs complement each other quite nicely!

  • @darlenemorris9550
    @darlenemorris9550 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    The silver and gold song was sung by Burl Ives in the animated "Rudolph" movie. I am in my 60's and have been watching this movie every year of my life. It reminds me of my childhood!!

    I don’t necessarily remember Burl Ives, but I do remember being a brownie and singing “make new friends but keep the old one is silver and the other gold“. We sang it as a round and the overlapping parts made beautiful harmony.....

    I always it would be fun to have a lot of wall clocks hanging up for New Year's Eve, set an hour apart. Those could be thrifted. Also thought it would be fun to have your guest bring little alarm clocks, and set them all for Midnight. Then they would all be going off at Midnight. Of cousre now everyone has an alarm on their phones. Have a Wonderful 2024!🎉

    My old friend and our neighbor went to Winterthur, where they each bought a beautiful set of 12 dishes at the gift shop . They decided that they were going to share them .
    One of our other friends borrowed them all for a garden shower . Those plates have been borrowed and used by many of us ! Unfortunately, one of the original buyers was taken too early from cancer , but we talk about her all the time when we are sharing the dishes.

    Love your thrifting videos, Linda. Love how you can imagine repurposing items for something other than what it’s intended for.

    The song that has silver and gold in it goes to popular Christmas cartoon movie. I’m surprise she hadn’t heard it.! It might be in the cartoon Rudolph.
