COME ANTIQUING WITH ME! Thrifting Home Decor with DIYDanie

I paid a visit to a dear friend of mine, who lives near a gold mine area for antiquing and thrifting. It's been over a year since I last thrifted, and funny enough, the last person I went thrifting with was Danie! We went out of the city to find the best antique home goods, and I came back with so much, I had to split this into two videos!

for the mahjongg set the racks are to set up the hands you're playing for American mahjongg the little poky bits are to hold the chips if you are betting.

Hey! New here, coming from Danie 🤠 Loved your video! Also, regarding the canvas you were worried about painting over, you can save the original art piece by starting with varnishing it a first time as is before painting and varnishing a second time ! It creates an isolation layer and that way your paint is much easier to undo if the next person owning it wish to do so. Love your style, can’t wait to discover your content !

That coiled candle was a replication of an old courting candle. A young lady’s father would set a certain amount, and once it burned down, the Gentleman Caller was to go home. If the father liked the young man, he could rest the length while still burning. Refills are a bit difficult to find nowadays
