- Join us as we start to cleanup the garage and discover more antiques! We sort through an antique trunk and then Hal begins to setup his tools and workshop in our new garage. There are several holes in the garage roof that must be navigated.
In the cardboard box you have a piano shawl. It did look like silk.
Nice job on the roof, that was a lot of work for sure. 🥵 I was wondering if you could replant the small roof trees, too? 🤔 I just love the private tropical jungle feel that property has surrounding that old home. Maybe a couple of GoPros with the head & or neck straps might be easier to work with in the near future? JAT💭😅
Au Printemps is (or maybe was) a large department store I visited in Paris in 1962. Au Printemps means In the Springtime
The fabric in the Au Printemps bag could be antique linen. That'd be a find if so.😊
I live in Florida too. Been watching from the first episode. Y’all are doing a great job! I can’t wait to see the finished product!
I looked up 'Sun Bank' and it's still around in Miami, although now it's called 'Sun Trust Bank'. Maybe all of Marie's jewelry, gold and money are still inside those safety deposit boxes!
Cleaning the roof was a scary job and overwhelming. I'm glad it was your camera falling not you, you have a lot of courage to tackle all that work. In the end it looked good, wishing you well replacing the damaged wood. Looking foward to your next video.
Lovely looking at all the laces. The large gold piece that came from the trunk looks like Chantilly lace. Some other pieces are hand made bobbin lace. The beautiful silk piece with fringing on from the cardboard box looks like the silk shawls they would have draped over the baby grand piano. What an interesting set of historical textiles. Very pretty. Don't wash them in lemon juice . It's far to acidic. Use something more gentle like a soak in wool detergent . Just a good soak & handwash is enough for these delicate items. Let them air dry only. No tumble driers.
I made a wind chime with keys and added large beeds. Good for memories.
Neat idea, love it!
I really enjoy watching you both. Thank you for taking us along on your journey. K🇬🇧❤️
So glad! Thanks for watching ☺️
Some of those pieces from the box of lace are items worn on women’s heads for church or other religious events. The more delicate roundish ones are the pieces I’m referring to. My grandmothers worn them for church
We suspected the same thing. Thanks for confirming!
I wish I wasn't in England as I'd help you both. Great job 👏 keep clearing gently and you'll win ❤
I purchased a lot of lace from an estate sale. It had a similar look to yours. To clean them, I soaked them in a storage container filled about 4 inches with cool water and powder oxyclean. I left them for about 6 hours or so, swishing them lightly every so often. Rinse them with a delicate spray of cool water. After I rinsed them I lay them flat on dry towels to get the heavy water out. Then dry them flat on a sweater drying rack. It worked beautifully, though some stains could not be removed.
Gosh, there must have been some weight on that roof!!
I crochet, and I am amazed and the workmanship of the pieces. They take so much time, that if the item wears out, or if you are changing the curtains or bedding, you take it off so it can be used on another piece of clothing, or whatever.
Great point, I’m sure that’s why she saved the trim. Thanks for watching!
Greetings from Poland :) good job!
Great upper body work out there Hal. Roof looks great now. Love watching your treasure finds. Looking forward to the renovations & seeing your dreams come to life.
Cleaned alot of my great grandma's old lace and lots of ppl said try lemon juice...Don't!! I destroyed 2 lovely pieces. Cleaned mine with a soap make for cleaning wool (can't remember the name). Worked well, as well as can be expected of old lace. Good luck with all your finds. Can't wait til the next video
WOOLITE LIQUID SOAP
Hal you worked so hard on the garage,! It's looking good! I assume you were able to store a lot of your tools, and they are there for when you need them? Kristin that lace was stunning! That last piece, wow! Hang in there, you are getting things done.
Thanks 👍
What a relief it was only the camera falling🤦Am looking forward to the demolition😅 Am thoroughly enjoying the journey.
Thank you!
Jeepers creepers literally! Heart in mouth watching you on roof of garage.
I was holding my breath when Hal climbed up on the roof!
Hi Katherine! This is Kristin- I was too! I wasn’t there when he filmed this, made me so nervous knowing he was going up there 😅
I have just found your site and went right back to the start and have now watched all your episodes. I’m so glad you have treated the house and personal effects with such care and respect. Really looking forward to what adventures you get up to next and the starting of rebuilding your new home. Good luck 😊😊😊
Great video. Thanks for sharing. My best wishes from Ireland.
Thanks so much!
Hi from Australia...i saw recently a wind chime made with lots of keys...looked good too...
Printemps on the bag means Spring in French.
Printemps is a major department store in Paris.
I’m so so so looking forward to garden and demo , exciting
The designs for embroidery are printed on tissue paper. The paper is placed on the fabric and the design is transferred to the cloth by using an iron.
Yes, that is one method! Another method is drawing directly on the fabric 😊
On some of that lace if you can't get the stains out you can stick it in tea bags and let it soak and you'd never know the difference the longer you so get the darker it gets 11:37
Boy, it must feel satisfying to have a clear roof. As an avid gardener, and naturalist, that mass of vine was imposing!
I am loving this so much. I haven't been watching for long. Bu t spent whole days to catch up. I love a lot of your finds. It's very exciting.
Yay! Thank you! Glad you’re enjoying it 😊
Love the plaid coat. I have 4 Chihuahuas lol😂❤
Wow that roof was a mess looks great now
WHAT A GREAT IDEA YOU HAD TO COVER ROOF SIDES W TARP!! IT LOOKS SO MUCH BETTER FOR STORAGE AS PROGRESSING!! KUDOS!!! TO YOU BOTH!! ❤😂
Im from High Point, NC. I know Myrtle Desk. They r long gone
Wow! Never raked a roof before 😂😂😂❤❤❤
Me neither 😂
At 29:53 it looks like a familiar tropical houseplant I have seen before. Hal I had my fingers crossed that you would not fall off or through the roof of the garage. Your both doing a great job and thank you for sharing. I look forward to your videos. 🥰👍
Thank you so much!😊
You are thinking of a chiffilaro ( sp?) also called an Umbrella Tree. Its possible that's what it is since Florida is pretty tropical.
Y'all can make wind chimes with the keys. I was so worried Hal, when you were on the garage roof! But y'all both really put in a lot of work on the clean up. Have A Wonderful Blessed Day and Week!
Make a key wind chime. Its another piece of the prior owner that will be there. Also save the TWA luggage tag. There are a lot of vintage airline collectors. And please PLEASE mention to Marie's guardians about finding safety deposit keys. Although those might be old, Marie might have a safety deposit box at a current bank that might have some valuables in it or needed paperwork. Also love love LOVE the doilies!!!
We did ☺️ thanks so much
Piano shawl with fringe
I have really enjoyed your channel. What a find! I am interested in all dog coats and the her raincoats found in the closet with plaid linning. Marie reminds me of my Grandmother.. I have poodles and the coats are perfect. Thank You.😢
I think the thing in the pillowcase is a piano scarf.
Beautiful vintage fabrics
Gives new meaning to "roof garden."
😂
I really enjoy your home renovations videos each week! Thank you for taking the time to share them too 😊 The lace doilies are so pretty !
Great job on cleaning the garage especially the top of the roof 😱 You are very diligent and very brave ! What a difference….
Cheering for you guys 🏠
Nice hearing the birds sign
That tree u cut on roof is called an umbrella tree...part of the fig family..they grow huge...
You are so courageous and amazing people to do all this work. Truly ❤ watching you two.
Thank you so much!
With the keys you can make a Wind Chime
Shawn Rhymes here. I enjoyed this video and I appreciate seeing the work that went into clearing off the roof, as well as the behind the scenes editing the video. I've got some editing to do myself, so I know what's involved in the job. Thanks for the video.
Much appreciated, thanks for watching!
Some of those keys look like antique cabinet keys
Hal , being on that rotted roof with out anyone else around! Good Grief l was having palpitations.
You two are very entertaining. Love seeing you work together to create your dreams. Thank you for taking us along!
Thanks for watching!
Also with the doilies, I have seen people take a big picture in a nice wooden frame, remove the picture, and set the doilies in a random pattern. Great for a craft room!!
Great tip!
The rugs are great, some look like handmade "encaje de bolillos" bobbin lace, I do not know if the translation is correct, but it is a craftsmanship.
The force of nature is impressive, how it takes over what was once its own. The roof was scary, but it has turned out very well.
Lots of hard work, Hal and Kristin. Good job on the temporary roof rescue. Nice to be young.
Great job. Bless 🙏🏻❤️
Thank you!
Oh I hope he doesn’t fall through that roof. What an awful job getting the foliage off the roof!
The phone company will trim trees away from the phone line. I wonder if that’s where the cut branches came from?
Probably!
El chal de genero bordado, es un Mantón de Manila, hecho en España.
Wow nice! Thanks for sharing that 😊
U can soak those doilies in warm water with Oxi Clean powder and the stains will come out
You both have such an amazing work ethic! The respect you have shown from the beginning towards the previous owner is really beautiful. So many of us have been where you are, and it’s so worth it in the end, if there’s truly an end, as we always find new things to do. That sweat equity is worth it. Hang in there. What an amazing job you are both doing.
Thank you so much! We appreciate your encouragement 😊👍
So pleased to see another episode. Made my day! Julie from the UK.😊❤
Thanks Julie! Hope you have a great week 😊
@@CicadaAndCo Just wanted to mention you have 12.5 subscribers and my birthday is the 12th of the fifth(May), I know in the US you say dates the other way! This year is my 66th birthday and I finally get my state pension. Alleluia!! Thanks for a great episode, just watching it again.😊
Nature was trying to swallow that garage.
Please be careful of rust etc. That's how I found out I was allergic to tetanus shots 😂❤
You've both worked so hard and made such a difference. A good job well done. It doesn't matter what you do next I'm sure we'll still enjoy watching 👍🏼
Thank you so much!
Absolutely love the 1st doily with the yellow on it. Can't wait until you open up your etsy shop because you have some beautiful items that anyone would just love to have
Starched lace trim looks fab on edge of shelves. Velcro attached means you can remove it to wash. SOOOOO WONDERFUL with all your antiques
I'm just curious if you ever have any regrets about the purchase of the house, now that renovations have begun. Do you ever think you bit of more than you can chew? Is it more work/money than what you originally thought? Or have you been in an "all in and no looking back" mindset since buying it. Love the videos, guys. This is an amazing journey!!
That's what they call a live roof 😂😂
😂
Love your videos. I was so excited to see the roof on the garage cleaned off. Good job all around!
Lovely lace you found, some is handmade. I think that beautiful silky large piece is from the 1920's and very special. It looks like most is natural fibres whereas today it's all synthetics.
While he was climbing the garage I realized how much he looks like a cousin of mine. Are you Scandinavian? He was.
Mostly Irish and German 🤷♀️
It’s amazing how nature takes over! Could never understand how whole ancient towns and cities could disappear but seeing how you had literal trees growing on the garage roof makes it understandable! Thanks for sharing this journey. Am absolutely loving it! ❤
Think about Angkor Wat in Cambodia where huge trees grow around stone. It was lost to nature.
I’m in shock how well conserved were the boxes with Doily and vintage trims!
I can’t wait for your Etsy store. You might need help uploading and describing each piece but there are people (hired) that can do that for you
Thanks! We’re a very small operation so everything is in house for now, but great idea! We’re hoping we’ll have time to open the shop this summer once we have more time 😊
Wow great job on the roof 😎🤟🏼
Thanks! 👍
Why do I have the feeling Hal is going to have the starring role in a headline that begins with the words "Florida Man..."
All kidding aside... please be careful.
😂
I would probably make a tabletop out of the keys using resin. They are a part of the history of the house and should be a part of the future...after you are sure they don't open anything!!!
Interesting idea!
Did you try and contact a few of those youtubers who clean up people's yards for FREE ? You can ask them if they'll HELP you and have them help trim up and haul away at your directive.
It gives them content for their own channels.
That way, you save time and energy on cleaning up the yard and can focus on the house and garage. You'll still have plenty of content of your own. 😊
Yes we’ve reached out thank you 😊
CAREFUL ABOUT LIABILITY, NEED GOOD INSURANCE , VERY COSTLY.
PIONEERS BUILT SOD HOUSES.....WOW!! SOD RUINED YOUR GARAGE ROOF!! TAKE CARE, TAKE A BREAK, EAT. NAP. GOD BE WITH YOU, YOU CERTAINLY AN AWESOME COUPLE!!
😂 thank you!
I ude to love making doilies. My late husband said he didn't want the house decorated with doilies. We got a new bedroom set and he asked me to make him a doily for his nightstand. I made him one in his favorite color, green.
☺️ that’s a nice memory
I think she was saving some of them for their lace edgings to reuse. I speak fluent hoarder.
Lol
She could have inherited some or all of the lace and crocheted items from mother and grandmothers and kept it as they had kept it.
Amazing episode guys, definitely a testament to the durability of the camera 😂
Thanks! Haha that camera is amazing 😂 the only problem is that we only have one so we’re constantly running around to change angles lol
Yippee! A new episode!
There are people, generally women, who will buy even the lace and doilies that are damaged.
Take breaks Hal! And stay hydrated 😅
More than that... don't do this work when you are alone on site! We don't want to watch a 'wheres Hal' video on the news!!
She must have spent a lot of time in France by all the memorabilia.
She was actually born there, in Paris 😊 she moved to the states when she was in her 20’s
The show of lace and dog year and all the prettiest what a wonderful break for both of you. Thanks for sharing it with me.
Save the lace off the one long one that had a long tare.
Maybe you guys should contact other TH-cams to do your yard
Great job on that roof!!!
Yes. U. Can plant that. I don't remember what the names is
I’m hoping you have a current tetanus vax.
So loving your content ❣️❣️❣️ Welcome to the jungle!
Thank you so much 🤗
Make a key wind chime ❤❤
Great idea!
Great job on the roof! I've never seen a " roof rug" like that. I love the doggy coats. Did you try them on the cat yet?
Not yet lol
hey turn your horseshoe so its shaped like a u so you can collect good luck! its upside down!!!
lol we know! That short was a joke 😂
you worried me on the roof tugging away! I kept saying "He doesn't fall, or we wouldn't be seeing this, right?!!?"
Maybe I missed this......how long was the home empty before you got it?
For only about a month before we found it, but about 5 months before we closed on our purchase.
I have a lot of old lace. Most made by family members. I could never part with them.
