I am so excited to bring you a thrifting planty video! This was my first time going and I had so much fun! I ended up going to 3 places and there will be a haul at the end of the video! Thrifting was such a fun experience and it's such a nice way to shop for items for secondhand for a really great price!

The prices seemed pretty good! My local thrift stores have raised their prices quite a bit so thrifting isn't as good of a deal as Dollar Tree. I like this content and thank you for taking us along!

Of course!! I was so excited to do this video! I’ve heard about prices being raised recently 😢 I need to check out dollar tree too! ❤

I've recently started enjoying going thrift shopping, because I've found some great stuff for plants and that is the only reason I go there. I've found shelves, vases, pots, cover pots, plant stands, you name it. And the great thing about it is that they get new stuff every day, not like TjMaxx and other stores where you'll probably see the same things over and over again until they are all sold out or the season changes 😂

@plantsbymelissa Жыл бұрын

I was surprised at how much stuff was actually inside some of these stores! I thought the prices and selection was pretty good! Yes, I love tj maxx but I know what you mean by it being the same stuff 🤗

I like to thirft cake stands, trifle bowls, and wide base candle holders to help elevate plants. I also have been known to turn a bowl upside down and place a plant on it.

Loved all of the glassware you purchased. Great job of videoing each store with all the treasures to be had. I agree with another commenter on here about the cute sunflower pot (5:55). It was so cheerful looking. Here’s hoping to seeing more of the thrifting videos. Always something new and unusual to be found in them. It was fun virtually shopping with you! 😊🌻🪴

Hi Melissa I love thrifting too. The pieces you got today are very nice they’re older glass the first piece with the two handles is a sugar bowl there would’ve been a creamer that matched it the 2nd cup is just a cup but it is old glass also last piece that’s kind of purple that is also old glass its a little wine glass and the reason it’s purple is because it’s old and some old glass if it’s in the sun it will turn purple. At Goodwill I buy black rod iron candleholders to use as risers for my plants

I have recently started thrifting and gotten back into antique shopping. I bought a few different sized glass plates to put under plants instead of the flimsy plastic trays. I love finding different sized bowls or cups to use for my sewing/quilting supplies. Try looking for cake or cupcake stands to elevate plants, I've used them in a few places around my house.

In the last 3 years I’ve had the hardest time finding vintage planters and I used to find them all the time 5-10 years ago. I’m glad I started collecting that stuff before the big plant boom because the prices on that stuff are crazy now. Fun video! Definitely try it again some time! You live in the land of flea markets, so maybe check one out sometime! I guess there’s a multi-state flea market once a year all the way down the east coast.

Hi. Watched your video on fa price plants. Just a question please Mellisa . I have a large snow queen . How can I get large leaves on a pole like your marble queen. Should I take a cutting of the largest leaves and then plant that. Any tip would be appreciated. Even a marble queen. Do you take a cutting of larger leaves first sand plant that. Anyone else have tips. Thanks for advice.

@plantsbymelissa Жыл бұрын

The leaf size doesn't matter too much when starting them because the plant doesn't have enough root system to support the growth so cuttings with big leaves will revert back to being more juvenile until they can climb and grow new roots. I would start with a small plant with a few vines (not long) and attach them. It will climb faster than cuttings since cuttings have to grow roots and establish first. Give it some time and it'll continue to grow and mature. Snow queens in my opinion is just a highly variegated marble queen. The more white they have the slower they will grow since they have less chlorophyll. Hope that helps! I do have a moss pole playlist with lots of videos that goes into more details on them.
