Oh gosh,now,because of my tiny rug collection,I need to write a tiny Selena story!
So,one day,lovely Selena was at an estate sale,and came across the most delightful selection of teeny tiny dollhouse rugs!
Some of them were so impeccable,so perfect,that a strange giggle-inspiring sensation overcame her!
As she held one of the more perfect little rugs,she began to shrink down in size.
The rug,it became larger and larger on her hands,and she couldn’t help but giggle at this miniaturization that was occurring!
Finally,with a tiny giggle and shiver,she settled down to a size of 6 inches tall!
With her characteristic laugh,Tiny Selena rolled around on her luxurious tiny carpets,happy to make such a find!
Wow A silk rug?? I'm not sure I knew such luxury exists!!!! How wonderful!!💜💜💜
Selena, your videos make me so happy that you could show me a “toilet” and I would smile 😊 and find it beautiful LOL 😂 Your positive attitude, passion for life, laughter, spirit, cheerfulness, Mom, it’s what makes you a success and so well liked by so many of us. 🤗
How lovely these rugs are. I love your squealing when you speak of things you've found. Your excitement is contagious!! 🥰👍🌻🌿🐕
So pretty, I would wrap the wreath with vintage lace or lace fabric and use florist pins to pin onto the wreath so you don't have to glue them or cut up the flowers. This is what I do so I don't damage a true vintage item. I would definitely display your pretty millinery flowers. Love vintage wall paper, your antique rugs, the silk rug is my favorite!
Hold smashed silk flowers over a steam kettle and they will open up to their original shape. Memory set in when they were made with hot presses or irons.. very nice collection
Thats a wonderful tip Nancy!!!
You could use a wire floral pick. The wire winds around the stem of the flower & has a wooden pick in the end that you can cut to fit your form.
Absolutely agree about wiring. The flowers can be used again in a shadowbox frame. They're gorgeous!
How about pinning your flowers into the foam instead of gluing? They make boutennier pins in ever color and you could pin it in horizonally so it doesn't slide right back out. Wish my son could see these rugs. They're leaving Portland and moving to a victorian home in Des Moines that needs rugs on their hardwoods!! Beautiful!
Yes. They can be seen and enjoyed but won't be damaged!
There are actual floral pins which could likely be ordered from Amazon or any floral supply store like Michaels. I usually wrap the wreath form with satin ribbon. Just makes it more special.
I think I would also wrap and pin a beautiful ribbon (velvet type) around the foam first. Enjoy , it’s going to be so beautiful
Good ideas here!
I love how Toby check out the flowers.
Straight pins sink really easily into those foam wreaths. Wrap the wreath in satin ribbon first. Use a couple of pins to fasten the ribbon on the back and then start wrapping it around the wreath. Fasten the end of the wrapped ribbon with a couple more pins. The ribbon will give the finished wreath a really professional polish and will make any gaps between the flowers look nice. Attach the flowers with pins. It will be beautiful.
Every room in my house has an "Asian hand knotted rug" and I have a 36 inch round rug in front of my kitchen sink...I have a small hand knotted Asian/Oriental Rug in front of the sink in all of my bathrooms....I have many and decided to ENJOY them where they make me happy and when they are soiled, I get rug cleaner and do the smaller ones myself and use, use, use them. Just sharing.
Vintage paper can be put under glass as tops to tables or vanities.
Girl, gimme those pink shoes! Gosh, just hand over the entire rug collection! Impeccable taste, Selena.
Oh, the silk rug is absolutely amazing ! I am in awe , really. I cannot believe you spotted it in the middle of the pile ! So good of Pete to help you get it, it is truely one of a kind . Fantastic buys.
Pete did a fantastic job with his frame selection. The acanthus leaves are perfection with your home.
Hello patti
I just can't believe how lucky you are. Between the last vision estate sale and now these rugs. Another dream! Wow, so glad for you Selena.
Love the silk carpet. Beautiful!
Your rooms are coming together so beautifully. Yay, Selena!
Hello murielle
I'm squealing at the computer cause I am no joke making a silk flower wreath right now!!! But I do not have your JAW DROPPING GORGEOUS millinery flowers!!!😍😍😍😍Mine are just hand dyed Dollar Store flowers🤣😂Yes your flowers are stunning but I mean, it's like making one of those vintage rhinestone brooch wreaths.... life is short, why not enjoy your stuff and use it?!!! ❤️🥰🌺🌸🌷
You can also frame some of the wallpaper
I think the fringed throw in the dining room is a piano scarf. They usually have long lovely fringe. Love your rugs, the silk one is such a great find. The small rug could go in your kitchen in front of the worktable. Love your enthusiasm for decorating, finding joy in what you do; love your mom (funny and a great friend), and Hot Hubby. They are so fun to watch, too. And of course, your critters!
Score on the beautiful rugs!!! They look great in your home. You’re hair looks great too!

Can you use the u pins to put them on the wreath. That way you’re not hot gluing them and ruining them. It will be beautiful
I can only imagine how "over the moon" you are to find those amazing treasures. And I bet the gentleman is so pleased that you are the one who chose them, knowing how they will be cared for and appreciated. Also, as a side note I am hoping you figure a way to make a wreath and keep the integrity of the millinery flowers. Best of luck to you.
Hello Marie
I started collecting flowers like yours for crafting. I've used them on hats, shoes, cards, and made pins out of some of them. You are so lucky to find such beautiful embellishments. They originally might have been used in the millinery business.
Now you’re talking my language. That Sarouk is beautiful.
God,I know I am such a non-shuddupy person,but I delight in your laughter,it is so delightful,I went off on a tangent recently,you hAve one of the top 3 loveliest voices on the planet.
Wallpapers could be framed as paintings with antique gold frames...
Hey Selena, just a suggestion that worked for me, instead of hot gluing the beautiful vintage flowers onto the styrofoam ring you could use floral wire and attach some wire to the individual flowers then push the wire ends of each flower into the ring. No gluing needed and you could remove the flowers and change them with different flowers as desired or seasonally. Love your channel! 🌺
Oh my gosh! Those rugs!!! Wow! How lucky are you to have that source? I am SO happy for you!! They are absolutely beautiful!! xo
I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one who likes things to match!!!
I discovered your channel through Yvon Thrifty Rich, as she raves about your style. I absolutely LOVE the videos with your sweet mom and love the way you two kid around with each other. I took my mom thrifting all the time, as she had a little antique and "junk" shop in our small Indiana town. Miss her every day. Cherish every moment with your mom and I look forward to binge watching all your videos!
The rugs are unbelievable! While you have the opportunity make sure that you have all you want. Those old rugs especially silk don't come around often for a decent price. I wondered what kind of pattern (origin) is the first rug. Of course it was in the middle! I thought your Mom should have gone to the storage too. Like you when she sees something that she wants, she makes it happen! The bird artwork and wall paper are beautiful finds. The colors are beautiful in your entire house! Always love your energy, your cute ways and grand style! Love your hair cut too! Thanks for this video!! The pretty, vintage flowers in velvet in silk would make lovely candle wreaths or garland for the mantle. Tie unexpected colors. You know what to do, Selena!!
I would frame the wall paper.
Glad to see your rug is cat-approved!
Love the flowers! Don't forget to make a few corsages(even just one rose which has been steamed) to pin on your vintage dresses or attached to some of your straw hats! Very chic!
The rugs are so heavenly! You keep adding lovely layers to your beautiful home. 💗💐
Selena...the rugs are GORgeous!!! I am in love with your choices❤❤ Just makes everything in your dining room and bedroom so grounded and homey.
I agree with some other followers on here...don't glue those vintage flowers to the foam. Some of the those would look beautiful arranged under a glass cloche😁
My parents have the same rugg!!! It s old. Always seen it in the livingroom, so at least 45 years old
The cat loved the fringes, I remember
I loved to brush them.
I love the silk one too. Lovely with the roses.
Very feminin and soft on the eye and feel
The favorite one is the last one. I love more vibrant colors in my home.
Grate buys Selina
I've made several vintage wreaths from vintage ornaments to vintage flowers. The ones on the foam wreath I first wrapped with vintage velvet ribbon. If you don't want to glue the flowers in place on the wreath, you can use florist pins to hold in place. They are shaped like a 3-sided rectangle, with a dip in the short end to hold flowers in place. I've used them when making boxwood wreaths. Good luck!
@@francegilbert6364 I am severely handicapped when it comes to computers. I do not know how to post pics, but will enlist my kids' help at some point. Thanks for your interest!
The rug in the dining room is amazing 👏
All the rugs are so beautiful 😍
That throw you have in the dining room might be a piano scarf.
I absolutely love it when you laugh! Hugs from NY
I loved the rugs!!! I live in a 1928 Tudor revival cottage home and have really enjoyed finding the perfect touches for my home. I really enjoy your videos
The millinery flowers are gorgeous... you should definitely make a wreath out of them. Use and enjoy what your have! I agree with the tip to use pins instead of hot glue. You can always change your mind, and use them for something else. Love the rugs!! xoxo
Ya, thats a great idea! I was gonna say ...mmmmmm not sure about the hot glue, those wreaths melt.🤭
oh you got me all excited about the mini green house. We a renovating a Victorian reproduction house. It is so hard to find Victorian anything with modern use. Our very first home together was a one hundred year old huge Victorian and my all time favorite house style. I really love how you have decorated your Victorian. Sooooo please please do a diy on that greenhouse!!!!!!
Hello Becky
I think it's a wonderful idea to put the millinery flowers onto a wreath. Those colors are so gorgeous and I love all of the little pink flowers. They will look so lovely together. 💐 The rug goes so well with your bedroom decor and it definitely looks comfortable. 😍💕💕💕
Selena…..there is a quaint cottage with a thatched roof in Lynden, Washington. The craftsmen were brought over from Europe to construct the roof. The cottage is beautiful with stone, thatch, European windows, door latches etc. and many antiques brought back from Europe. You would love it!. My ex-husband’s sister is the owner.
Wow, those rugs are just wonderful. The vintage wallpapers are epic. You are blessed.
That rug under your bed is to die for. ❤️ the fur babies at the end are just precious, especially when the kitty was sleeping.
Frame some of that wallpaper or make some Christmas ornaments out of it and you can have it for yrs. to come I have seen some that are Victorian fans...add some old lace on it...Im drooling over those rugs I love rugs...My mom and I are also swappers...I would buy that rug if the colors were right I dont have any greens...the rug under your dining table that one would work in my house...the flowers just pin them on the wreath form I make wreaths all the time and if you use hot glue that tears them when you want to re do it...
Yes I remember you installing your last rug in your dining room. Your new rug is beautiful inthe dining room but your bedroom rug Wow love the colour palette. The little one is also beautiful. So happy for you!😊😘❤❤❤
Your hair looks healthy. Your shampoo is working for shure.
I love your faux flowers; I m a bit jealous. Your house is so stylish.
Enjoy your crafting XXX
Yep that rug looks like it was made for you...perfect
OMG! LOVE YOUR NEWLY FRAMED BIRDS PICTURED!
That silk rug!!! Okay my jaw dropped. I’m so jelly! What an amazing find
Love those rugs beautiful especially the small one with that green colour on it. Glad your billy buttons are coming up so exciting!!! the silk rug looks beautiful in your room. thank you for the great video ❤😊🐞🐦
The beautiful flowers, oh my. They would be absolutely beautiful in a wreath!! Don’t glue them please. You could remove them and reuse. Just stunning ❣️❣️😊
Love the framed bird picture. Looks good just sitting there.
I was in England a few years ago visiting a friend who lives there and we went to so many small villages with thatched roof cottages. I loved them and took pictures of almost every one. All so magical.
Hello Brenda
Funny thing,I am actually an avid collector of tiny dollhouse rugs and carpets!
I got them all over the place!!!
Hi Selena, it's Deb! I love the new frame on the heron painting! You really made it look great. Glad you like it so much. Enjoying my butterfly 🦋 bracelet! God bless.💞
That dining room rug is gorgeous!
ive been going thru the same thing due to a traumatic event...i havent met a young person thats going thru as well...sharing this has blessed my soul...i would have never noticed...always think your beautiful because i look at your smile and heart!
I love art work leaning on a mantel or shelf sometimes instead of hanging everything! I think your gorgeous bird picture looks good just leaning but of course that's just a thought and it may not suit you!! I love your channel! It's always fun
and uplifting. I'm closer to your Mom's age and I love her too. She is so much fun!!
Girl, you hit the jackpot with your beautiful rugs!! I love them all!!! You have amazing taste!! I would have lost my mind if I had seen his storage units filled with vintage rugs!! Love your new framed heron painting, looks perfect over your mantel!! And the nude lady is perfection 🥰!! Thank you so much for sharing!!❤❤❤
When you said "get it girl" to your hair growing in that was freaking hilarious!
Hello Kelsey
Oh Selena - you just make my day brighter! Congrats on all of your beautiful finds!!
I have rug envy 😍
If you steam the flowers they can be pushed back into shape. the flowers are lovely
I use a vent hair brush to comb out the fringe on my rug. Rug only of course. Yours looks fabulous in your dining room! Silk rugs are so precious that the only person I knew that had a small one kept in on her piano. You’re in classy-town now!
Can you imagine how much silk that took? Wow. (busy worms to make it) lol
Love the story about swapping things with mom. My aunt and I did that! We’d get tired of something or change decor and one of us would take it home. Fun times.
Agree! Use floral picks.
I love your enthusiasm about everything.🎀 Those rugs are amazing, what a great find.👏🏻👏🏻
Serena, all hose rugs were beyond heavenly. The dining room rug reminds me of English/ French Art Nouveau designs around the border ❤️❤️. I found a silk 3X4 rug I now have near my kitchen island, my fur baby, Cosette loves that silk rug, she has great taste!
The smaller rug looks wonderful, will send you an email.
I guess the moral of your adventure is we need to get to know our neighbors.
that rug in the bedroom is GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT dining room goes great wtih that rug. luck you
You’ve got good taste ~ of course you need the rug in the middle of the pile! Beautiful
Hello there
Can you share this man with me I need some classic rugs
Hello Susan
Your rugs are beautiful! The silk one is my favorite. Although I really do love the one in the dining room, too. @25:11 Toby!!! He is so cute. I love hearing his meow at the end 😊.
Hi, I think rugs can really make a room. A tip: to preserve the quality of good rugs, you really need to put a rug pad under them. Ask any rug dealer.
Looks like what they use for popular fascinators for weddings and Derby wear!
Use a high gauge (thinner) floral wire and floral tape, the green kind, pull it to release the sticky.... and wire the flowers on, for the ones with no stems, carefully wrap the wire through the bloom and back out, the wire will also allow you to position the flowers in a spray effect. No real value to the flowers but they can be designed beautifully. I have been a florist for more than 30 years and work with them often, now they do seem to be coming back into trend for weddings, especially boutonnieres and corsages.
Hey babe great rugs and beautiful flowers I would nit glue I would pin tiny pins
Rug heaven! I would have screamed with delight as well. Beautiful colors and looking so soft and in such excellent condition. A total win. Congrats Selena! Blessings - Judith 🎭🎵
I lived in England for several years and its really influenced my decorating style. 💕
Same here!
All the rugs are beautiful but the bedroom rug I would turn sideways under the bed then you both could enjoy it. The dining room rug as the colors I simply love. Great Haul
i dont think that rug is large enough to go under the bed & past it. it MIGHT stick out a bit each way but then youre wasting most of the beauty of this rug because you cant see it & feel the incredible softness. give the guy his rug. lol!
Those rugs were fabulous. Love your doggie and kitty kat.
The company that print the William Morrison Victorian wall paper is located in Benicia Ca. I hope they are still there. I visited many years ago when visiting my Friend. They are so truly gorgeous.
Hello Jeanette
The rugs are unbelievably gorgeous. You find the most amazing things. I would recommend a good liner. I have it under my dining room rug,(a rug on a rug). It keeps it from moving.
Dang, I didn't know I needed a silk rug until I watched your video. It's so GORGEOUS!
I wouldn't put hot glue on the vintage flowers pins seems the best idea I've seen in the comments hun loves the rugs I'd die I wish we had room love you hun stay safe thanks for sharing with us xxx😊❤🥰
Thank You. THE FLOWER IDEAS IS REALLY GREAT!
So many wonderful things!! First, the pink loafers in the opening had me squealing. The wreaths, I agree with the others who said pins or wire, so you can re-use and re-arrange at will. You might not want them outside because the critters might chomp on the natural fibers as well as the sun causing fade...unless you like that look of evolving decay, which is lovely as well. Rather than using the wallpaper for single use wrapping paper, maybe take a note from t.v and movies: notice how they just lift the top off their gifts? Decoupage the paper onto boxes and tops (various sizes). That way you can save them and use them later when you go back to that color scheme. 😉
“Have you ever felt a silk rug? Neither have I until this moment!” 😂
Wow, I absolutely love your new rugs! They complement your decor perfectly.
I think the wreaths will be beautiful.
You the "Bomb" Selena...your hair looks amazing! And those rugs are something else... perfect for your home. I especially like the silk one with the beautiful flower design! Many years ago we went to England to visit my mother-in-law's cousin. They had one of those cottages with the thatched roof in the gorgeous lush countryside...it was like a fairytale for sure. 😍
Cover the plant jars with plastic wrap to create a mini green house (keeps soil moist) effect, when seeds sprout discard plastic wrap. Did your neighbor tell you where the rugs were made? The dining room one looks Persian (Tabriz) wool and cotton. But I am not sure. Never use the rug setting on your vacuum cleaner! Tuck the fringe under the rug if you can, gets dirty fast and very hard to clean.
If you steam the flowers over a kettle, they will go back to their original shape 😀
Hello Nerina
I am going back and watching all your videos, I am new to the channel. You bring me so much joy and serenity. Love your style, stunning beauty and decor flair!
For You wreath You can use small Pearl pin and always keep You vintage and beautiful flowers safe!!!
The largest rug is HAND KNOTTED !!!!!!! More valuable than "machine made" - I believe the Green rug is hand knotted...the silk is beautiful, but looked "machine looped"..which doesn't matter, of course...silk is expensive hand or machine knotted...so great for you !
The litle rug is like a artwork and maybe it can hang on the wall. Thank you for beatiful videos.
Wow doesn't describe the rugs....beautiful. I wouldn't glue the flowers either...use pins so they stay beautiful..take care.
Hello Margaret
Ooohhh, that silk RUG, 😲 thanks for sharing that. So beautiful ❤️.
