      This is true, I've rewatched it quite a few times now but I think her TH-cam channel allows her to focus on what she wants to do and cause it's not a big production not so hectic and full on behind the scenes 😊

    It’s a specific niche of people that do this- I’ve collected antiques since I was 15 and my house looks, well like hers and people always either say- oooh I love your house or ohhhhh, your house is scary as shit!

      My friend just introduced me to this channel. Her pitch was "dude, this chick is basically you, but with more money." She started me off with the couch and wallpaper videos.
      I would absolutely do all these things if I had the time and resources. As it is, I recently restored a 1905 singer treadle machine, an oak armoire, and am working on restoring an oak dresser. My mother has a booth at an antique mall, and helps me by keeping a lookout for bizarre or creepy Victorian and Edwardian decor pieces.
      My life goal is to have a house that is equal parts Tim Burton set, Uncle Monty's house (series of unfortunate events), and Mrs Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children.

    My grandma would redo antiques. It’s amazing the eye for detail she used to have. She had a magical workshop full of different paints, supplies and concoctions. The smell of turpentine always reminds of that magical place where she would create her beautiful woodwork, art projects and designs. She also had a sewing room. My grandparents owned a house from the 1800s and they lovingly fixed it up and my grandma filled it full of antiques. Watching Christine work her magic takes me back to the days of long lost childhood and my dearly departed grandmother. Whom I jave strived my whole life to be a fraction of.

This is not a "Kung-flu" racist-twisted mind fever or something like that. This is a fight as mankind, and thanks to God that we have health care as a RIGHT. Don´t trust politics...they only think in money and power, not in people. At least in Spain, they don´t worth a single penny... We listen to incredible scientists and health specialists like Doctor Camacho, Doctor Gaona, Doctor Pertierra and Pablo Fuentes. They have awesome interviews in Mileniolive youtube channel...probably you can follow the content with youtube subtitles. Real information saves lives!!!

      @hpotter22090 4 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      She doesn’t go too much into the details, but gramophone needles are still made and are very simple to make. They are literally steel rods that have been ground into a point like a sewing needle, hence the name.
      She is a little imprecise when she says the needles “warp” when the record plays. The point of the needle wears away so it becomes wider and damages the grooves of the record. You can technically sharpen used needles with a fishhook sharpener. Cactus and fiber needles were also used as renewable replacements.
      However when she mentions the Pathé gramophone, it does use a sapphire stylus because the records play “weirdly”. It can only play Pathé discs which start from the inside-out and have vertical grooves aka the needle moves up and down. The “Bogeyman” Columbia record would be entirely incompatible since the record starts from the outside-in and uses lateral grooves aka the needle moves side to side.
      These are also the older shellac records which spun at 78 rpm. The more modern vinyl record came much later around 1948 and spun at 33/45 rpm.

    When you were trying to be super steady with your hand, I was having an anxiety attack for you. I would love to see what you would do with an antique jewelry box.

    Oh my goodness! One day I want to get an old gramophone and repaint it like you did!!! They are an old piece of history but giving it a bit of a makeover makes it all the more charming!!! It's amazing how the gramophones still function very well decades and decades after their heyday!

    Thank you so much, Christine. I enjoyed this SO much. And you not only gave us a needed distraction during these weird times, but you helped me with my withdrawal symptoms after finished all the episodes of "The Repair Shop" that Americans have been allowed to have. The project is beautiful.

    Dear Christine, Thankyou for a massively entertaining video. When I tried to explain to my offspring, who were 12 & 16 at the time, that we had compact discs “before” for music, and before that , cassettes ( blank stares) and before that, vinyl records and they were played with a needle, well they fell about laughing- and said I was “tricking”. Fast forward 10 years an DJs play house music on turntables so its old news - and bands are re recording on vinyl. I actually have some old Bakelite discs, those I may have to explain gently... “ well you see, they are made of..”

    I'm a tinkerer at heart and fixing/restoring things brings me so much joy too, but to do it at this level is pure mastery. Your excitement at the end was relatable and had me smiling like a fool haha Amazing work!
