I like how you mentioned that antiques last a lot longer than newer designs. My wife is wanting to get more antique pieces and furniture for our living room and doesn’t know where to get them. We’ll be sure to keep our eyes out for great antique pieces to fill our home.

Kacey, I really like that you said I should consider buying smart by buying antiques because it’s an eco-friendly choice since buying secondhand furniture means I wouldn’t require new resources. My wife and I have been trying to be more eco-conscious ever since the news about climate change broke out. Now that we’re looking for new furniture for our new house, perhaps we should buy antique furniture to help the earth. Thanks for this!

I like how you explained that Fair Isle knitting is done by hand and was fresh new way of knitwear. I like the idea of having knitwear clothing that is handmade. It would be unique to you and you could brag about it being handmade rather than made by a machine.

Hi, I have a jacket that had the UNION LABELS NATIONAL RECOVERY BOARD for COATS & SUITS label on it, but all I can find for the brand is a shoe company. The label says Bass New York and it’s black and white with bass larger and in black against white and New York the opposite. Is that familiar to you? Thanks!

We have a St Vincent de Paul thrift store in our town that all their profits help the poor they don’t send any money to a national office like some non profit ones do wherever the store is located the money stays fully in that community. We call our local St Vincent de Paul either SVDP or Vinnies.
Love my Vinnies and what they do in our community

I love the idea of getting my girlfriend a vintage engagement ring that still fits the modern bride look. I plan on proposing to my girlfriend in a month. I think it’d be awesome if she had a vintage yet modern looking ring.
