I always get so excited when you mention it’s swap time cause you get so many wonderful good quality things for your family for no cost at all. I have 4 kids too and the amount of money saved on all those items is amazing! There is no swap where I live but I’m hopeful perhaps that I can start my own someday.

@saracarter683 3 ай бұрын

Just thanking you for putting your vlogs together so we can enjoy your bits of inspo and encouragement. The fact that you put the camera up on a bookshelf so you could get a shot on your browsing made me appreciate your vlogs even more. Thanks for the work you do for VEDA light!

If Dan is unable to fix the basket handle, a shoe repair shop could. It then wouldn't be a free basket, but it wouldn't cost much and you'd have a high quality and easy to use basket.

I say it every year you go, that swap trade is such a great idea!!!

@carolrodenbeck2381 3 ай бұрын

The free swap is such a wonderful idea and you got so many great things! Your breakfast looked delicious!!

@tammycope3145 3 ай бұрын

Wow! What a great bunch of things you got!!! All the free shoes and boots are definitely a money saver!!!

@christined2495 3 ай бұрын

I think the free swap is such an ingenious idea, sure everyone looks forward to going each year…

I think that sheet would make beautifully classic curtains for Christmas time! I love using flat sheets as curtains!

@mrskerry8111 3 ай бұрын

Great haul. So good things can be passed on to other families. Hope your sister also got some great picks.

My daughter loved the Little Critter books when she was young. I would read one or two to her at bedtime and then she would want a few in bed with her to read until she fell asleep. When she was older I used them in my first grade classroom. My daughter then used them in her classroom when she began teaching. They were truly well used and well loved.

I cannot read about gory stuff and murder especially in the time we live in I have to read books that inspire me

Holy Toledo! 😳 That was an incredible swap haul!!! What a huge blessing for your family as well as those who participated!! 🎉🎉 Such a lovely event and community outreach! ❤

I love the idea of free swap how great to get so many kids items they do grow so fast too it nice thing for someone to arange.

You could also just get a navy or red bottom sheet to pair with the tartan one for a coordinated look 😊

Wow I love the swap day 😊. You always get such great things.

@jcronian9806 3 ай бұрын

The swap is such a neat idea. You hit the jackpot with the kids' clothes.

@tammyleviner3070 3 ай бұрын

The free swap is a wonderful idea! I've never seen or been to one but that would be pretty cool! You grabbed some really nice things too. With how fast kids grow and the prices of cooking.. and having more than one child.. It just makes sense to thrift clothing and shoes when you can find nice pieces. And a free swap Is even nicer, it helps so many people! I always thrifted for my 2 kids and still do it for my grandkids! I actually love thrifting clothing for myself too! Enjoyed today's video, TFS😊

Love your SWAP videos! Great haul! Love that basket. Hope Dan can fix it for you. Can't have too many BOOKS. Always gret to see you Hilary!

@candimclane6739 3 ай бұрын

Loved the swap things! I think I'll run that idea through our HOA.They love community things to do.We have a trick or treat parade,a hay wagon to take the kids around at Christmas to see the neighborhood lights,an Easter egg hunt,an ice cream party in summer!Oh,I was going to tell you,put your banana peels in a big jug of water overnight and use that water on your plants! Good potassium boost! Ground up eggs shells can be sprinkled around the bottom of plants as well.Hugs from Missouri 😊❤

@lindaroyal8161 3 ай бұрын

Was surprised to see how large the swap is. It's such a great idea. You scored, as you usually do, you're such a good thrifter! My favorite is the large basket and the clear organizer set, it could work for art, hair accessories, many uses.

@sheilapellicane8507 3 ай бұрын

Wow you found a lot of great things! What a fun thing to do. You probably got a couple hundred dollars worth of clothes! I think It is such a fun event to attend. It can be helpful for families that don't have either.

@pamlong448 3 ай бұрын

Have you considered turning the tartan sheet into a duvet cover? It would be pretty to put on your bed at Christmas time!

@hwojo6854 3 ай бұрын

and make a matching pillow cover to the pillow you weren't sure about keeping

I just love everything that you got at the swap. I wish that we could do that here.

@Katieb1984 3 ай бұрын

I love your swap videos! I just finished a flicker in the dark and found it so slow and lackluster. Everyone else loves it so I’m interested to see what you think. 😊

@jendyson6729 3 ай бұрын

I just commented the same thing! it took me forever to get through, lol. I actually looked up the reviews (which were pretty good) and thought it was just me that thought it was slow~ glad I wasn't the only one 😃

I agree that if a book does not make peak interest, it’s okay to let it go. There is so much to choose from. Love the idea of free swap. April is zooming along.

Wow you found so many great things at the swap, especially the nice winter clothes and boots! I just read a flicker in the dark, it took me awhile to get through it so I'm curious to see if you like it~ may be a reflection of my current reading slump and not the actual book, lol. I was able to find The Younger Wife on my libby app so I just started listening to that. Thanks for the video!

I sure wish we had a free swap where I live. The block print pillow is beautiful. I could see it mixed with a checked print pillow with similar tones. All the great jackets and shoes , in such great condition... score! And love the straw tote with the leather handles.

I always love the free swap hauls!! If Dan can't fix the basket, you could take it to a cobbler, I don't think it would cost too much to repair. Basket bags like that are so versatile since they can be used as decor or to carry things....very Cape Cod ;)

@carolmiller8811 3 ай бұрын

You look so cute and stylish when you wear jeans, Hilary. I always look forward to seeing what you find at the swaps! That basket really is great. I bet Dan can fix it (let us know). Seems like that pretty pillow might look good in your living room chair or on your bed. So many great clothing finds, especially those coats and jackets - what a savings! Can’t wait to see the star picture frame in the boys’ room. I remember when you put the star wallpaper in their room. (Did you get the wallpaper from another swap?) Thanks for sharing. Blessings!♥️

Hi Hillary. What an amazing haul form the swap day. Good for you! Also love your book recommendations, as I've read several that you have shared. If you like murder mystery, I enjoy Tami Hoag, Lisa Gardner and Karin Slaughter books. Although I will warn you Karin Slaughter is very graphic but good reads. Thanks for sharing.

What a wonderful friend to host the swap party twice a year. You did so well in your choices. I am always so surprised at the quantity and quality of the items, thanks to the families that donated. How long is the actual shopping time? I wouldn't know where to begin but see it would be a blessing to so many.

@Logrim3 3 ай бұрын

Hi Hilary! A fellow Christian here! I’m reading a lot more these days, but I’m wondering how do you handle topics such as murders/deceit/affairs and such in the books you read? Do you feel sensitive to reading stories of sin, or are these books generally appropriate? I’m just wondering so that I can take some of your book recommendations.

@brendawright5296 3 ай бұрын

Hidden Pictures is amazing, in my opinion. I’m curious to hear your thoughts about it.

@grammypreads8840 3 ай бұрын

Hi Hilary I like the same genre of books as you. I have read many of your recommendations. Thank you! I would like to recommend the author TM Logan. He’s only written two I believe. Both are very good!
