I’m literally so so so excited to see your home completed. I know people say that Joann Gains is their “spirit animal” but I pick you !! Love your creativity and style
Jennifer, I totally agree !! So glad I found McKenna!!
I agree! Watching her channel and especially all her hauls has definitely influenced my personal style!
I agree!!
Agreed ❤️❤️❤️
Totally agree! I'm constantly looking back at Macenna's vlogs and her main channel for inspiration and can't wait to start renovating our place! She has such good design and taste! And I love the sustainability too!
“I taught you to walk!” 🤣 Mama for the win.
Your mom!🤣 “I taught you to walk!” “Some people go to the mountains, we go to the flea market” haha I love you girls!!
That mantle is beautiful. When the other woman was asking about the price, I think you probably had a tiny little panic attack which means you really wanted it. So glad you won that battle. I think it will be perfect for your cottage, especially at Christmas with the stockings hanging from it. Kensley giving you kisses at the end of this vlog was so sweet. God bless!
Totally had a mini panic attack!!!!! I had to have it!!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Ive alwas wanted one. How much wasvit if you dont mind sharing.
I love the mantel too and I can’t wait to see what you’ll do without it.. By the way who doesn’t love YOU ?.. I think everyone here ADORES YOU ! At least I do. You’re doing such an awesome job.
@@xomacennavlogs you could cut the 'legs' off and use it as a beautiful shelf. I have one in my home.
These estate sales always make me feel so emotional. I just think about the people who took such great care of their things and how you'll continue to do so and it really makes me happy. I just love ya! Can't wait to see it all in your home ❤❤❤
I just came to say the same thing! Actually I came to say that estate sales make me so sad for the family left behind, but you are right that these items are being given new life and blessing new families. ❤️
I always think the same thing, the accumulated treasures of two long lives, it’s sad that they are gone and can’t tell us the stories that go with the things xx
Thank for this lovely comment. We’re clearing out our house of 44 years to move into a much smaller place, and I hope there will be people like Macenna who will love the things we can’t keep.
@@colleenjennifer-lynn I got teary, too 😰
Man I love the relationship between you and your mom ❤️she’s a gem
You're southern accent really comes out when you're with your mama and you find something amazing while thrifting- in the best possible way! Love the mantle too!
I literally shouted "YES!" when you said you were going back for the mantle.
Can we just appreciate the fact that I think this is the first time we’ve ever had a close up of your dad?! He’s always been in a tractor or something. Hi papa!!
MaCenna, the simplicity of your parents has me in awe! I appreciate your videos but especially, I appreciate how humble and kind you all are! Keep being that friendly, sparkly, kind, and humble MaCenna! Your mom and I share the same happy place!
robert's fireplace would look so good sandblasted back to the bare wood - so glad you're getting it!
also those curved wooden frames would make great bases for a canopy
Oh my gosh you are so right! I would be so concerned about damaging the carved details though!
@@ButyoucancallmeKat i saw an armoire with similar depth details post sandblasting on tv and it looked like paint had never touched it!! so fresh and the grain was lovely
I’ve actually been wanting to try our sand blasting or soda blasting!! They may be just the project 🥰
That is such a great idea! The mantle would be beyond gorgeous back to raw wood!❤
yes!!! I hope she atleast attempts to strip it somehow before painting it
My mother passed away in May of 2008 and watching you & your mom out shopping together reminds me of my mother & I out shopping together. We always had the best times finding the best deals and just spend time together laughing and cutting up. I so enjoy watching the two of you together and the other content you have on your channel. You are such a talented fun-loving girl who has truly blessed us all by letting us be a part of your journey. Thank you for including us all and keep up the great work that you so enjoy doing.
The estate sale touched my heart . Looking at all of the things that were treasured by that person, the hobbies, the games, the linens washed and folded with care…… ❤️ I still have all of the old Yahtzee score cards going back decades even. Seeing them reminds me of time spent with friends and family, and some we have lost. Bittersweet. And it reminds me to keep adding to the stack 💕
They make me feel a little sad too. Someones treasures getting sold away.
Agree. My mother loved all her things. My sister were so overwhelmed by what we would keep and what we would pass on to someone like Macenna who would love it through a second life.
Aww… I was literally just wondering if anyone else feels sad at estate sales - I just sometimes want to cry just seeing videos of estate sales - I have spent so many years collecting …. I guess a good way to think about it is to remember these sales we see & know there are people who appreciate those treasures

When you're ready to decorate the cottage it will be like shopping all over again!! Win!! Can't wait to see how all your goodies are displayed in the cottage!
Omg 100% 🥰🥰
Obsessed with the mixer what a find! It looks like a 1948 Hamilton Beach Mixer Model G Series and what a beauty 😀 It's so exciting how close you are to moving in I can't wait to see how beautiful your home will be furnished and decorated with all the things. Hi from Australia 🤗
Old mixers are THE BEST! Old mixers like that and kitchenaid are made with steel bearings, currently the bearings are made of plastic and other materials, and they can burn out! You truly found a gem with that mixer. I have a vintage kitchenaid and it has lasted over 50 years (it was my grandmothers' wedding gift), it's out-lived three brand new mixers! Way to go!
These half rounded wood thingies could be headboard parts for a kids bed 🥺😍 loooove them!
Exactly what I thought!! 🥰
No I think they are used to curve plywood for carriages or even to make wheels
Ooow good idea. I was thinking may also be cute with block rainbow color yarn hangy thing lol. I’m so good with words aren’t I lol. I can’t think of what they are called
The two wooden semi-circles could be joined to form a mirror frame.
I'm 67 years old and my mom had that mixer when I was a little girl.
Oh me too! I’m 69 and was going to say we had that back in the ‘50’s when Hamilton Beach made them in my hometown of Racine, WI
😲 so cool!
That mantle is to die for!!!
You will make it work somewhere... you have too it’s gorgeous. All of your finds were precious. Say hello to Momma so glad y’all are back together. I’m so excited for you... I can’t hardly stand it... oh the cottage is going to be breathtaking!
Awww thank you so much 🥰
MaCenna is the reason I am sitting with over 25 brass candle stick holders in storage...
Hahahahaha
Same!!!!!
I buy all kinds of weird brass items because of her as well! My latest find is this cute small brass lunch box or doctors bag. I have never seem one like it before. I can't wait to have it in my hands. :-)
Aw it’d be really sweet if once the house is all done to invite robert and the other lovely vendors over for a dinner party! 😍😍
That bundle of linens! :) When you were flipping through at the estate sale I was saying to myself, "Buy them! Buy them!"
I was saying the same! And when she opened them on the haul portion, I wanted them even more! Stunning!
Oh my gosh! Macenna I just found that EXACT same brass candle holder with the knob that turns. If you loosen the "knob" or screw, the candle holder is counter balanced so if you are walking with it and it happens to tilt, the candle holder stays upright. I found it for $1 at a garage sale 3 weeks ago. I've never seen another like it, and then you find one! So crazy, but I am obsessed with mine, it is the coolest thing. Love watching your channels. Btw my daughter is Makenna also. I live in Katy, so pretty close (relatively) to your brother I would assume. Trying to get my husband to go to Trade days! I would LOVE that. Thanks for all your inspiration! 💓💓
Wow, love this.
wow, that is so cool!
I'm just reading this I haven't watched it yet but I have one like that as well. I'm kind of wondering if it's the same one.
I bet that candle is designed for use on a ship.
Omgggggg LOVE!!!! Awww she’s my name twin!! 🥰🥰🥰
I get so excited when you go thrifting! Now when my cousin and I go shopping, we always say “McCenna would love this”. You have made us all part of your family. We Love You!
Awww that means to world to me!!! 🥰 love you guys!
The brass self-leveling gimbal candlestick holder with the knob that you found is such an amazing find! If you unscrew it slightly, it turns into a WALL SCONCE! It would look stunning on your wall! ✨I recently sold a pair in my vintage IG shop but it was so hard to part with them 💔🥲
That sink! Wow! I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen a sink like it. So so cool!
Needle nose pliers is one of my favorite and most used tools!
The mantel is gorgeous! I can totally see it in your living room. It will be a great focal point.
That mantle is gorgeous and will look beautiful in your home. I can’t wait to see it installed and redone in your home.
Mckenna anytime you find those milk glass bowls you need to pick them up. If you use that mixer those bowls will even all at end up breaking. Its always good to have extras.
You can use a magnet to test the silverware to see if it’s real silver or not. If it is real silver the magnet won’t work. Also, I think I read somewhere that early silver pieces weren’t marked, but if they are marked it’ll be with either 800, 900, or 925. I hope that helps!
If it's stamped 925, that means it's sterling silver. :)
925 means silvers, yes. But metal can wear down over time
Yes use a magnet. The gold and silver are not magnetic, I forgot that.
Oooo I’m going to try that! That you so much!!!
I’m glad you got the sink (less the spider) it’s beautiful but my true envy is that mixer! Wow 🤩! Thanks for your videos, they keep me going ❤️. I just love your mama and me adventures.
“This is my happy place! Some people go to the beach. Some people go to the mountains. We go to the flea market.” - MaCenna’s mom - If this ain’t me... 🤭😅
I love the mantel, but I would take it somewhere to be stripped back to wood. Somewhere where they dip it and do it professionally. Not sure I would paint it, maybe some limewax or antique wax on the raw wood to bring out the details? Can't wait to see how it turns out. :)
Those old blenders were built to last. My husband has an old one he uses to make bread and pizza dough. If you contact the company they may have accessories for it...special tools for blending dough and cake mixes. Great find. Also, the mantel will look great in your home. It may be more ornate than your style but it will blend and be a wonderful feauture.
The mixer...the mantle...the sink...the linens....oh my 😍
SOOOOooooo glad you're getting that mantle!!! GORGEOUS!!!
I am so excited about the fireplace mantle! It can stand out as a true artisan piece. Your house is coming along beautifully. I can’t wait for design phase but just as much, I’m excited to see all the surfaces and finishes.
It’s so weird that I started watching McCenna months ago buying her cottage. I’m so emotionally invested in this house that I feel is like a bff buying her first home😂😂😂She doesn’t even know I exist and I’m here waiting for the big moving video with goosebumps. 🤷🏼♀️The magic of TH-cam 😂 Anyone else ready to decorate with her and hangout out shopping with her mom? 😂😂😂🙋🏼♀️
My mom and I always went yard saling together and had a ball. We would start out early and end the day with a salad and baked potato at crackerbarrel. We would be parched and drink a ton of iced tea as we excitedly talked about our finds. I miss my mom and miss those days. Treasure every minute!
You guys will NEVER stop shopping! LOL. Good thing is ... anything you don't need, you can sell in your pop-up. Great thing about being a reseller, you can continuously rotate things out!
Your new mixer is the same as the one I used as a child.....I'm feeling old when all the stuff you are looking at we have had. 🙂
Listen I have a mantle addiction too! I don't just use them for real fireplaces either. I move them around every time I feel like a re-do. My favorite one has been in my kitchen, then a library and now a spare bedroom. After all you need somewhere for all those candlesticks! Oh and don't forget to put one on the porch!
All I can think about is making those wheel wells into one of those arched bookshelves/hutches!
👍👍👍Wow! That’s a great suggestion!
That would be cool, if you build it out of solid wood. The former owner bent those himself
Wooowwwww like where your creativity went!!! 😍😍😍
I was thinking for a doorway! Your idea may be more doable
What a fun day! My Mom had that exact mixer when I was young. I remember her using the hand part for many years and she still has the small size bowl. Great find! I love the old board games.
The cutlery, if pewter-the colouring is right from what I can tell - is perfectly food safe! Mum had pewter teapot and jug and we have pewter tankards.
Also I was thinking earlier this afternoon, whilst waiting to pick up my other half from work "ooh, it's Tuesday, Macenna will be posting soon, I reckon it's about time for a Trade days video..." Lo and behold I was right, I also think I may watch you a bit too often if I know when your going to Trade days! Lol.
Oooo thank you!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@xomacennavlogs Old pewter may contain lead, you can test it using lead a testing unit from a tool shop (check that is proper for testing adornments and flatware)
Oh my gosh, you and your mom are so fun to watch at the flea markets and sales! You both remind me of myself and my daughter, she always beats me to the good stuff. I am so excited to see the cottage and all of your beautiful treasures filling it. You are a delightful young lady!
Your Mum and the tape and sharpies at the estate sale, OMG 🤣 she is a woman after my own heart. This was one of my favourite videos so for McCenna, oh my goodness you and your mum together just bring me so much joy . Everything you bought was absolutely gorgeous and you don’t have a shopping problem,have have a whole house, two guest cottages and your mum‘s house as well to furnish and get decor for, that’s an awful a lot of shopping! 😄 The beautiful thing about being an interior designer your home is it’s never actually done. A couple of years from now when the house is ‘finished’, you might decide to refresh or redecorate a room who knows? Then you’ll have stuff in the workshop that you bought estate sale or flea market, ready to go. Isn’t that the main reason you have all those extra buildings in the backyard, storage ? 😉
On the mantle, would you consider stripping it back to wood just cause I think that carving would look amazing in its original wood.
I agree. Painting or distressing this fine piece of art would be criminal. I can see it blending in nicely and giving a rich tone to your living room.
You have in the intro where you said “I need to move in, and unpack so I can quit buying stuff” I laughed so hard!!! (Well we know that’s not going to happen, the quit buying part) Love, love, love the mantle! I think it’s perfect!
I laughed when she did,like,yeah,right!😅😂🤣
With those round half wooden things, you could connect two of them together and make a DIY picture frame, or depending on how sturdy you could make a mirror!
You can never have enough brass! Don't deny yourself the happiness of discovering beautiful brass pieces! Come one, come all, let us rise up and support MaCenna and her obsession with brass!!!!
Gorgeous Mantel....they also make great headboards. So if it doesn't work in your plans for the living room space consider a DIY headboard. Either way it us beautiful.
That was such a great price for the vintage HB mixer! And it looks in great condition!
Love, love thrift days. Your mom cracks me up. The SOLD tape is priceless!! LOL
Aaah! I've never been this early before, what a treat! I wish that my city had estate and flea markets to this extent, I would so love to spend a whole weekend looking for fun things! I'm ready for this week's installment of A FRITTER, A FRIEND AND A FLEA MARKET!
Oh I so want that mixer! Now I'm on the hunt. I am obsessed with milk glass. Glad you got that incredible mixer. The sink is so beautiful and unique. And that mantel! What a rare find. I know you can make it look as gorgeous as it deserves in your home. It is stunning. Even if you have to alter your original plan for the fireplace it will be worth it. Really fun video.
The mantle is stunning!!
You have gorgeous finds again 🤗👏
I think that mixer is older than me and I’m 59. I’m thrilled that You bought that mantle♥️♥️♥️. I think I would have cried if You passed it up lol. The timing is perfect too. Some Absolutely Amazing Finds👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. I’m glad that you did grab that sink for one of the guest cottages 😁.
I absolutely love the mantle! I am a gardener and when I saw the mushrooms on there I just about died! I can’t believe it. So pretty
Yeah!!! I noticed the little mushrooms too!!!
we need our "a fritter, a flea market, and a friend" shirts, MaCenna!
Omg you bought the BEST stuff today! The sink. The brass candle holder with the turning thing on the side. The clear glass lantern. The mixer. The watering can. I can’t even.
I love all of the items your bought today!!!!!! Your Mom is so stinking adorable writing sold before you even get in the Estate sale. I do love the mantle not sure about the white, I think if taken down to the wood and stained? Thanks for taking me along today❤️❤️❤️❤️
great finds!,,btw have you considered having some beautiful old vintage journals/stationary/pens for guest to write in that would belong to the guest cottages i think that would be the cherry on top of a stay there!,the cabin we stay at has a journal n ea yr we get to read how others enjoyed themselves.
Creating complexity with style, particularly, when an item is very special never fails!!! You can dress it down with the art you put above it and how you style it. I tell you....make it work!!!
MaCenna's enthusiasm is so infectious.
That mantle is beautiful! I absolutely vote put it in the primary house!
My favorite pieces were the Sink and the Mant,e. I can picture these pieces installed.....its going to be beautiful
My mom had a Hamilton mixer but I don't think you could remove the mixer to mix separately. You got top of the line. I think mom got her mixer as a wedding gift about 1956 or 1957.
Same. There is an adjuster lever that moves the beater into the right position depending on the size bowl you use. They don't have near the speed/strength compared to a modern KitchenAid and you have to manually scrape the sides of the bowl because the beaters don't pickup everything
My mom got hers in 46’. It will have a cloth cord.
In the 1950s they must have switched the cord to being covered with a rubber covering because ours was something like a rubber covering cord and you could slide the mixer off the stand to use it as a hand mixer like she showed
I have two in my cabinet, you can take the mixer off. Mine are from the nineties.
The mantle, mixer and sink are AMAZING! Great finds.
The Hamiton Beach mixer is from 1948! Such a neat find!
That mantel...The little mushrooms on the top middle part...I'm gobsmacked!!! You should definately use it in the main house.
I would say go for the mantel because when it's instant love, here's a high chance of regretting it. Also I thin you can make it work and it would look so good in the house with old and new decor pieces :)
MaCenna I just love your mom, she's so much fun! Give her a big hug for me. Missing my own mom...you ladies keep having fun!
The mantle is gorgeous!!! It deserves to have the fireplace be designed around it! ❤❤❤❤ I am so jealous of your mixer
I love when you guys go shopping! The small milk glass bowl is called a better bowl, that’s why it has a little pour spout. I didn’t see the top but if there’s a hole that’s where the juicer attachment would go.
I am so glad to see you bought that mantle. It was beautiful
Can hardly wait to see videos of you decorating the house
The brass candlestick was used on ships, it constructed to always be balanced/level.
Missed seeing you shop with your Mom. She is too cute! Glad you're both back. And agree with everyone else; the mantel is stunning! Congratulations on the find!
Here i am rooting for lil spider to make it out of the sink
Well you did amazing with the Hamilton, as on UK Etsy they are around £140.00... it is stunning! nice find! Im so looking forward to you putting all of these finds together and making a truly beautiful home! Thank you for sharing x
Don't you love when you go to an estate sale, and they still have the item you wanted and it there still and works.. AWESOME BABY !!!!
MaCenna bringing in all the bags to the room is me sneaking in a bunch of bags from target 😂🥰
Hahahahhah!!!!
It's a gorgeous mantle. I can see it with the limestone if it's stained a darker color, not white. It will look absolutely beautiful in your little cottage!
Your shopping trips w your mom are my absolute favorite!!!! I hope they never stop
My mom had a mixer like that she bought in the mid-to-late 1950s. I as a teenager, loved whipping up creamed potatoes also I became an expert at making meringue for lemon pies with mixer like that. must have had it at least 40 years with all the moving between houses I don't really remember what happened to it. it's really well-made a quality product. I am glad that you found it at the estate sale since it was the one thing you went to get.
Good you got that sink!! I was hoping.
Great you got the mantel.
Yes to the stool.
I’m jealous of the lanterns.
Great haul
Everything will find a place. ❤️
The mantle is a MUST! its so beautiful and the fact that is ornate will look beautiful in your home.
I love going along with you and your sweet Mom! I also love everything you bought and can’t wait to see you style everything in your new home!! That mantle found a home! 😍
My family has antique kitchen table chairs that have gotten loose or even broken over the years. We recently had them taken to a carpenter (?) to fix them up, and they turned out great! He was able to fix and tighten, restain and refinish, as well as replace the seat cushion and fabric. I say this to suggest that if you find some chairs that you love but they are broken, perhaps a local carpenter would be able to fix them for you.
I just love hanging out with you and your mom shopping at the flea market!! I live in Houston Texas so I looked up the Antique Gallery in Spring and when it warms up I am going!! Keep my eyes out for you!!!!😊
Those 2 "wheel" pieces...I see them as the arch of a trellis-type gate into a garden. Wouldn't that be a cool place for wedding vows & pictures!! That mantel is ... amazing!!!
The mantle and especially the mixer...are EVERYTHING!!!!
Hi! Love all your treasures! The brass candlestick you found is a nautical style. It was designed to hang like a sconce and the fly screw on the side adjust for that position or it could sit on a desk. Also, check to see if the bottom unscrews? There may be a secret compartment there. Mine has one. 😁
😂😂😂 I couldn’t imagine not having that mantle in my life. 😂 few minutes ago you didn’t have it in your life. I can relate and I am so glad I got over my flea market shopping addiction.
I was so excited about the story behind the estate sale! Because our house in Denmark also used to belong to a carriage builder (he actually built the house as well)! So naturally we have quite the work space in the basement, where he used to build 😆
We were told that when cars were starting to put carriage makers out of work, he instead built the back of those old milk vans with the wooden doors in the back.
I secretly named our house The Carriage Maker’s house. Thanks for reminding me just how much I adore the histore of it ❤️ So special 💫
I’m looking forward to when you can start decorating your new home. Guessing your style sits somewhere between the Vintage Bombshell and Leftcoast Revival, my other two favourites. You pick some neat stuff.
As soon as you showed the sink I was like OH NO she bought the spider sink!!! Hope all spiders were evicted before purchasing 😂🤞🏻
When I saw those wooden apples on that shelf at the sale I was like OH NO, she walked right past those!!! 😂 I love wood apples and wood fruits in general, I look for them specifically when I thrift! I like the ceramic and metal ones too, but the woodturned stuff...?! It turns me on. 😉🤣
That was the BEST estate sale I have seen in a long time!!!! And that thing is not too ornate, you have the high ceilings, you can pull it off!!! Also, I think you could totally do some amazing diy wind chimes with those old spoons and forks!
I loooove the mantel! I think it'll look so good in the cottage! It will look so good painted, or maybe even stripped down to the wood 👀
McKenna my mom had a Hamilton Beach brand mixer just like that and when I inherited, I got rid of it and I so regret it!!! It had the milk glass bowls, and it detached as well. It was probably older than me when she passed away. I was forty and now I am fifty seven. I wish so much I had not gotten rid of things that were hers. She was a very neat lady and everything had to be perfect. She took well good care of anything she had OCD she was. Please cherish your mixer you have a gem!!! Thank you for sharing your haul and estate adventure with your mom and dad. I so enjoy you spending time with them and just having the best time. So many Awesome times to cherish. Love you ladies, and your gents as well you bring so much joy to me with your bubbly excited spirit. I wish you all abundant blessings for 2022, and always...❤😊
