True story... I bought an old jewelry box at my favorite junk shop for like $3 because it was fun and had stuff in it which was really obvious cause there was a lot. Anyway, they sold it all to me together so I assumed none of it was anything more than costume jewelry... Until I looked closer. There were a couple legit gold pieces but the biggest score was a string of pearls I took to the local jeweler just to be sure and... Yep! Like several thousand $$ worth of pearls!
When my sister inherited, from her MIL, a mixture of legit & costume jewelry, she took the whole bunch to get it appraised for insurance. He told her that some of the costume stuff had a very high appraisal, because of craftsmanship, metal & gem quality & age of the piece😮!!! Also don't clean the stuff up! Sometimes just cleaning takes away some of the value❤!!!
i think that original jewelry box would be so cute for art and crafting supplies!! those loooong drawers look good for paint pens, paint brushes, crochet hooks, paint tubes, really anything!!
Favorite breakfast slop is what I call "breakfast rice" (super imaginative) lol. It's rice, peanut butter, a banana, oat milk, chia seeds, then ghee or coconut oil, plus any vanilla cinnamon etc you want. It's very filling and delicious! Love the video, as usual, babe!
I add diced onion/chive & or green/red sweet peppers. Peaches or pears are good too. My son's fave is mixed with egg noodles & bacon if it's on hand! I always use it in lasagna instead of ricotta, it's cheaper & tastes better! ❤
thank you for wearing a respirator while using toxic chemicals!! even in a well ventilated area like outdoors, its always a good idea to wear a respirator when dealing with such toxic materials! protect your lungs!! good role model indeed!
Um actually, was not a respirator, was a mask for particles (dust, smoke particulate, virus etc.) Does not protect against VOCs. Being outside was best move.
Current favorite Breakfast Slop: white rice in a bowl (I like to cook it in chicken broth for flavor) topped with two sunny side up eggs and garnished with some furikake seasoning, stab those runny yolks and mix up all the goo and go hog wild
My most lazy meal is kinda similar. I make a pot of white rice and right when it’s done cooking, I mix in a raw egg. This might gross some people out because the egg doesn’t get fully cooked and it is a little slimy, but I like it. I learned about it from a chef’s table episode. I usually add soy sauce, sesame seeds, raw spinach and sometimes avocado and onion too if I’m not being my most lazy.
I met a 3 point buck eating apples from a tote in a yard down the road last night. I explained about candy and strangers. I pointed out the highly suspicious antlers hung on the shed. He looked like he agreed he was not making good choices, but he kept scarfing down apples. Maybe he's a stress eater? 🤷♀️
Watching this while I work on a funky color palette for my teeny tiny bathroom. I'm thinking pastel peach wainscoting, cheerful sky blue wall above it, with a little red cherry 🍒 print painted all over the blue. It's a little risky and exciting, and watching other people get crafty and creative gives me motivation! So thank you!!! 🌤️🍒🍑🪺
Omg. I love the one you got sent. So perfect. I think you should use the jewelry box you thrifted for craft supplies. So many little drawers to hold crafty knick knacks.
Sewing notions, buttons, needles, etc....or beads and glittery crafty stuff....or those small crafty items that need a home, but only need a small apartment in the craftcondo, and hang out with those other small crafty groupings
My current favorite breakfast clop is Cream of Wheat. I don't make it on the stove OR in the microwave- I use our electric kettle (for tea and coffee) to boil water and while that's going, I add a tablespoon of butter, a pinch of salt, and a couple spoonfuls of the white/brown sugar mix I have in my coffee prep area. Pour the water, give it a stir to make sure there's no clumps, and wait like 2 minutes for it to thicken up. When I was a kid, me and my gramma would have Malt-o-Meal (same food, different brand) for breakfast every day when I would visit her. We'd either have it with maple syrup, or if I was being particularly gremlin-y, I'd add chocolate syrup.
You’ve Got Mail , is in my top 10 comedies ever ❤ Love the jewelry box , definitely use it for small craft supplies like beads, jewelry findings, tools etc 😊
oh my god when i saw the words "thrift flip" i was so scared bc i'm used to people buying decent pieces, doing maybe an hour of work on them, and then selling them for a HUGE markup, which completely prevents people who are trying to save money from buying cool stuff that will actually last. i was like "not my girl Kathleen.........surely that can't be what she's doing.........."
This video came *just in time* for me to add a sixth lil guy to my five similarly shaped end tables currently being neglected in my basement lol. I knew someday we'd get to enjoy furniture-related body doubling content with Kathleen, but gorsh I needed that pick-me-up today 💚
I love how you sneak further and further into the booktube niche with each video... gleefully awaiting the full-on booktube content I assume is coming someday
You Got Mail is my New Years Eve movie when I don't have plans. It's so exquisitely dated that it feels special to watch it to celebrate the changing year
Kathleen at it again with the coziest bops & tunes in the video!! The Zelda music is perfect for such a good fall vibe 🤎 also you could use the big jewelry box as a tea box for tea organization/storage!
Not all the Zelda country music bops! I need to get me some of that good Zelda music to use in my videos! :) By the way just found your channel and I really love your vibe, fun, but cozy! I don't regret watching too much TH-cam when I find content like yours!
That was a super fun video! I need to do something with the 80s jewelry box that I have. My late father gave it to me and since then all of the interior felt got moldy. (Thanks old brick house and humid Lake Michigan!) If anyone has any suggestions or can point me in any direction to fix this please let me know!
Loved this! I always love seeing you thrift flip and make something look extra nice! If you ever want to spruce and shine up some woodwork without sanding and refinishing, I use a lemon oil and beeswax polish. No harshness, and it can go over existing finish! It can't hide scratches in dark wood, but it can make it all glow and shine, and protects a bit. I use it on furniture, cabinetry, even things with a wood veneer.
Love a good thrift flip! the bow is so much my thing 💕 You were actually one of my main inspirations to finally start my own channel. I love your humor, your style, your house and your cute dog. I've always thought that I'd like to do TH-cam at some point and now I've finally dared to do it. But I still have soooo much to learn! Best wishes from Germany, Luisa
Juniper and Thorn was a really good book. I wish I had read it in the fall because it's witchy and there are unsolved mysterious murders happening. Beautifully written too! I loved it!
Favourite fall breakfast is not what I eat for breakfast, but more of a snack. Anything maple, praline, caramel, pumpkin spicy, muffins, pancakes, or oatmeal.
Ummmmm you and Guss are the cutest, I mean tutest. I loved seeing the bow come together, I absolutely did not see the potential at first, but now will look at the skill saw dad projects from 20-30years ago in a different light 😊
This morning I had a bowl of cottage cheese, full fat yogurt, and some fruit compote I had just made. Said compote had plums, pears, apples, vanilla, nutmeg, and a small amount of brown sugar. It was yum.
Love both jewelry boxes. I think I like the one you worked on abit more. The deep drawers would be great for thick bangle or cuff bracelets which l find hard to store. Having both gives you good reason to thrift some new artsy jewelry finds. 😉😉😉
My breakfasts are pretty much always vegan because I read this book that said if everyone was vegan for one meal of the day, it would make a pretty big climate impact. My favorite breakfast slop depends on the season. For fall it’s definitely oatmeal with applesauce and cinnamon. I love going apple picking in the fall and making a ridiculous amount of applesauce and then going through it all and having to go apple picking again to obtain more applesauce. Store bought just doesn’t compare.
Like two separate dishes? Or oatmeal mixed with applesauce & cinnamon? First time I ever made applesauce, I burned up my blender because I didn't have a food processor THEN I found out that it gets cooked down😢!!! That was in the early 80's & we first moved out of town & I learned to can veggies, with better results😂!!!
my fav breakfast slop is some good old vanilla yogurt mixed with whatever sugary cereal i have in the house (usually captain crunch) to form the ultimate 8 year old's idea of a parfait 🤙
Semolina slop, made with whatever milk you like. Start with water then add milk, cook until thick, add more milk to creamy as you want. Serve with raisins, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and a bit extra milk on top. Thanks Kathleen for saving wood from paint!
"the only good indians" is SO GOOD but it's a slow build. stephen graham jones in general is SO GOOD. i feel like "i was a teenage slasher" would be up your ally re: recent book mentions.
I don't comment much but: 1. Your videos are so calm and relaxing. I love knowing that I can pop any of your videos on and craft along and chill 2. You asked for scary book recs and that is where I basically live in my reading selections. I've broken my recs into vibes and maybe one of them will be the sort of scary you are searching for: Spooky Supernatural Ghosties: The Colony or House of Lost Souls by FG Cottam, Haunted by James Herbert Cursed Media: The Remaking by Clay McLeod Chapman, Demon Theory by Stephan Graham Jones, Night Film by Marisha Pessl (not exactly horror, more thriller but I quite like the world it builds) Spine Tingling Mysteries: The Ghost Writer by John Harwood ( this is an all time favorite of mine that I never hear anyone talk about), The Hour Before Dark by Douglas Clegg Cold Damp Winter Chills: The Sound at the End (this is an audio only tale) by Kirsty Logan, Thin Air or Dark Matter by Michelle Paver The Horrors of Grief: Ghost Eaters by Clay McLeod Chapman, The Haunting of Velkwood by Gwendolyn Kiste October Vibes: Dark Harvest by Norman Partridge, Being Dead by Vivian Vande Velde (specifically the story October Chill). Hope you have a great week, Kathleen!
I really liked Emma In The Night, by Wendy Walker. It's more of a spooky messed up mystery. The basic synopsis is: Two teenage sisters disappear one night. Three years later, only one comes home.
Omg I’m 99.9% sure I passed this up because I don’t have the money or resources to restore 😭😭 I love her. The lil jiggly handles are my fav. So glad you found her! ❤ I live about 1 min from that thrift store so I’m there an unreasonable amount. 😅
If you ever get into beading or jewelry making, the big jewelry box would be perfect for that. Would also work well for small sewing odds and ends like needles, threaders, bobbins, zippers, snaps, bias tape etc.
Just finished watching Kaos on Netflix! It's like a black comedy of ancient Greek/Roman mythology set in somewhat modern times. Only one season so far but it's sooo good. Plus it has Jeff Goldblum so can't go wrong there
Love both jewellery boxes - and I could definitely make use of both of them! Was so lucky to find one of those separate tall jewellery chests at the Habitat for Humanity store (a full piece of furniture on its own - hope that makes sense) so I have lots of room for my shiny bits and pieces. Magpie! Best thing about it is that the necklace hangers are 2 skinny doors on either side, and they are so tall that none of my necklaces pool and tangle up at the bottom.
Almost did a spit take with my orange juice when you and Jelly were talking, so creatively cursed in the best way! 🤡 I am making paper Halloween decorations as I watch your video. Love the thrift flips! Happy start of spooky season 🦇 🎃👻
had you randomly in my recommended and idk what about you but immediately subbed your vibes give me chaotic crafty and im here for it sitted and watchin
Highly suggest The Spirit Bares its Teeth by Joseph White. It's set in an alternate Victorian London where people with violet eyes can speak with ghosts. It can be graphic at times, and tackles some tough situations, but I'm really enjoying it. About halfway through right now and I already have Hell Followed With Us by the same author on my list! Also, if you want a cozy fall read, The Vampire Knitting Club is a very cute series with the most wholesome characters. If you don't have time to read, the audiobooks are amazing, as if the voice actress.

Great Idea! I only thought of turning it into a spice cupboard or tea caddy❤!!!
that moment when you were taking the drawers in from the rain had such magical ghibli vibes😳😳
The way you threw that clown doll like it wouldn't muckduck you in your sleep later.
just say murder
Kathleen + Fall name a more iconic duo
😤🍂🍁
I can name a more iconic trio: Kathleen + Fall + Kashi !!!
There really isn't anything better than watching a new Kathleen video right after work
welcome!!!
I love Jelly's animal crossing chatter. Even if he does creep me out.
Jelly is nightmare fuel.
I'm so glad Kathleen is spreading the good word of Restor-A-Finish and not painting wood! Wood is pretty!
Howard's clean and wax is a go to for me on anything wood. Love that stuff.

I'm also an adult who enjoys cottage cheese! Underrated slop for sure!
Yes!!! Slop gang unite! I like to add savory seasonings to mine and use it as a dip for miscellaneous food stuffs
@@Sleipnirseightsounds yummy!

That knock at the door, i just KNEW it would be Jelly. Its like i felt his presence 😂😂
his aura is PALPABLE
You can put art supplies into the big jewelry box like beads and maybe hairstrings .
Current favorite Breakfast Slop: white rice in a bowl (I like to cook it in chicken broth for flavor) topped with two sunny side up eggs and garnished with some furikake seasoning, stab those runny yolks and mix up all the goo and go hog wild
I do this too!!!! I add frozen mixed veg for some extra yummy nutrients :D

I really identify with him.
Favorite fall breakfast:
Oatmeal, cinnamon, maple syrup, butter, sprinkle of salt, pecans, and if you’re feelin sassy a spoonful of cookie butter.
Ooh cookie butter is a genius addition!
@@Sleipnirseight so good!I like to leave it in a scoop so I can get little bites of it here and there, it’s like dessert!

If it were me, I'd stack the smaller jewelry box on top of the larger, and fill both of them with jewels. I confess. I'm a jewelry hoarder.
But wouldn't the largest jewellery box simply eat the other???
Omg. I love the one you got sent. So perfect. I think you should use the jewelry box you thrifted for craft supplies. So many little drawers to hold crafty knick knacks.
Two hours until my class starts and a Kathleen video that dropped 30 minutes ago? Yes please!
perfect timing >:)
That bow gives me whimsy beetlejuice vibes. I'm in love.
Sewing notions, buttons, needles, etc....or beads and glittery crafty stuff....or those small crafty items that need a home, but only need a small apartment in the craftcondo, and hang out with those other small crafty groupings
tbh i was really doubting the bow with the stripes but i did like it, it is, in fact, very swirly pop
That original jewellery box is my literal dream, because i have sooo much jewellery. I'd love that thing. 😍
My favorite breakfast slop is definitely cream of wheat with a little bit of milk, butter, and cinnamon or brown sugar.
I always liked it with raspberry jam and butter!
I like mine with blueberries!
Jelly is the guest star we knew WE NEEDED 😂🌟

“We’re about to talk about books for 4 minutes.” I have never been so excited in my life.

You’ve Got Mail , is in my top 10 comedies ever ❤ Love the jewelry box , definitely use it for small craft supplies like beads, jewelry findings, tools etc 😊
My fav breakfast slop is Pho. Which takes 20mins to prep and 20 mins to enjoy and then 20 mins to think if it is worth it to do it again
When you said you’re gonna wipe down the whole thing, it was given the same energy as the little girl who says I’m gonna be the whole problem
Your channel is so refreshing. I love to see someone creating things, not just consuming. Thank you for inspiring my inner craft and thrift goblin ❤

That was a super fun video! I need to do something with the 80s jewelry box that I have. My late father gave it to me and since then all of the interior felt got moldy. (Thanks old brick house and humid Lake Michigan!) If anyone has any suggestions or can point me in any direction to fix this please let me know!
Loved this! I always love seeing you thrift flip and make something look extra nice!
If you ever want to spruce and shine up some woodwork without sanding and refinishing, I use a lemon oil and beeswax polish. No harshness, and it can go over existing finish! It can't hide scratches in dark wood, but it can make it all glow and shine, and protects a bit. I use it on furniture, cabinetry, even things with a wood veneer.
Congrats on your new jewelry box! Love what you bring to the internet.

Juniper and Thorn was a really good book. I wish I had read it in the fall because it's witchy and there are unsolved mysterious murders happening. Beautifully written too! I loved it!
The "look at the sky" moment made me think of the movie Perfect Days, and the komorebi goodness overwhelmed me in the best way
you should use the jewelry box as a craft supplies box (though i now a lot of supplies are fairly large) or a trinket holder :)
Favourite fall breakfast is not what I eat for breakfast, but more of a snack. Anything maple, praline, caramel, pumpkin spicy, muffins, pancakes, or oatmeal.
I came for the cozy thrift flipping, stayed for the cute folksy, country Legend of Zelda montages 💙
Omg, the jewelry box that was sent to you is absolutely perfect 🤩 I really like the one you thrifted as well
Use the other jewelry box for your arts and crafts supplies!!
