I love rescuing single candlesticks. I use them in groupings.
Same here Snowbird!! 👍
Ditto
I still have my mom's aluminum coasters. I used to play with them when I was a kid. She had a lot of aluminum serving pieces.
I'm glad you still have them. Nice memory to go along with them. 😊
I never get sick of the theme tune.
We do love you brown furniture! That Drum table. Glad to see you pick up the Ivy California piece. That song is stuck in my head now and I love it!! ❤️🐩
Study the aluminum. The older is heavier and marked. The light weight is pressed or spun. You want hammered.
Of course, you do you, but I've got a really nice collection of orphaned cream and sugars, plus a few salts. I started because I didn't have much disposable cash and usually the orphans were less than half of a pair. I have several pairs that were inherited or gifts, but I've matched up 5 exact pairs and another 4 sets of different colors and one pair of same blank but different etching. It makes an interesting display. Various sherbets make a nice collection too.
Perhaps, you could do an orphan live sale... I just loved that wonderful sugar dish.
Really enjoyed thrifting with you, and discovering the treasures
I like aluminum
I love brown furniture. A lot of mine was found on the curb. I also collect aluminum, which is usually thrown on the shelves with silverware in my local Savers.
Well that was an interesting haul. Love how u take the time to educate us on the furniture, bless u!!! 💞💞🙃💞💞
I loved both those tables. I love brown furniture to.
I'm glad you picked up the goofus glass. I sold all of mine years ago when it was a little more popular. I ended up buying a vase because it's a great piece of glass history to own.
Oh that poor little green sugar bowl. All alone. He would love to sit on your counter and keep your percolater company. He would love to have an adopted creamer sister😢❤
I love the wrought aluminum pieces I have a collection of the platters on a wall in my living room as a gallery wall.
I hope the tape that's wrapped around that goofus glass came off okay. 😮
Everytime I hear "Buttons & Bows" I think of Frasier singing on that TV show "Frasier"!. 😅😂
Oh, the sounds of Buttons and Bows....in a different language!
My heart hurt that I couldn't get that beautiful radio/ phono. Just beautiful.
That was a lot of hammered aluminum. I like the patterns and shapes but not the finish on the metal. Some of the brown furniture pieces were hidden gems.
Hi Scott always love when you upload the thrifting videos oh my goodness the white table with the green chairs yes please for 40.00 what a deal I love brown furniture not like the furniture of today 🤮it falls apart a week later after you buy it and the stores what a lot for junk I’ll take the vintage and antique furniture any day loved all the glass you showed also the entertainment center wow what a treasure always injoy watching take care
You are correct- there are collectors for everything. I love and collect hammered aluminum pieces. I even have serving pieces with original Pyrex inserts. I have pieces from Continental, Rodney Kent, Everlast. I think they are very cool.
Another great video! Luv ur way of thrifting and ALL the information you give us. OMG the mahogany table!!! 😊
That was a fascinating entertainment center. I’ve never seen the top outs before.
love watching you shop
my house would be filled to the gills if my stores were like that!
You spent 15 minutes of your life trying to find the Handi-foil mark on the bottom of those dishes!🤣 The delicate blue candlestick was a good decision! A keeper.
I love the little puppy table.😍
What is the Keystone thing? I thought you would say at some point. Didn't hear it.
For serving food on the table.
What a treat having daily vlogs! It's sad to see the charming Deco 'snow angel' candle holder missing its mate... I am glad that you're bending your own rule with regard to 'occasionally' purchasing single candle holders, those little orphans need to be cared for! No doubt someone will love it and give it a good home!
Good evening Scott ❤
Yes Scott, please pick up the emerald green cup & saucer with wax candle in it, stick the cup in your freezer, for about 10 minutes and the wax will fall right off😂
The turquoise candle stick is one of my favourite shapes.I own a brass and a silver version.Loved Phillis Dillar and her husband Fang.Hilarious
I love the dishes with lids
You have very different vintage on east coast vs. west. And prices
Goofus. Have 1 vase, and I like it
I just found a wooden box with a farm scene. Inside is an etched mirror. Full length of the inside lid😊
i love that antique media center. i have and antique bar like that. with the waterfall edge and details inside. found it in kentucky. i love it.
Wow! $25. For the great oak dresser😮
This was a fantastic video! Loved every minute!
I look so forward to your videos. You give so much interesting info. I am enjoying so much your older videos, trying to catch up
Thank you so much!
Enjoyed thrifting with you Scott. 😁
I enjoyed your video! TFS
Your thrift stores have a great selection of furniture! I would’ve definitely snatched up that mahogany table for $65! ❤🐈⬛
I had acquired a few of the aluminum pieces over the years and then last year I went on a decluttering binge and donated them all to a non-profit thrift store. I just never used them and no place to display them. No regrets.
hammered aluminium is fun for entertaining. Most of the pieces shown today were not quality pieces -- priced about right. Needs a maker mark and a bit more weight
Thanks! That was great!
Glad you passed on the aluminum. Those looked like very common low end pieces. You do an excellent job of, stop, think, pause, and refresh that impulsive urge. And the brain says, ‘do you want another death pile?’ Keep on a teaching.
those sugar bowls with lids are cute and can be used as trinket boxes or something. creamers not so much
Great video! I sure love the look of goofus glass and wish it held up better.
Loved that creamer you left behind. I dont need it either but that one was pretty enough to make me consider giving up the one Ive had for decades.
Sugar bowl I mean.
I alway learn so much from your episodes Sir 👍 this was fantastic ❤
i buy single candlesticks all the time. i prefer them. two makes it too matchy matchy for me.
Even if you don’t fix the radio or turntable that would make a beautiful piece of furniture
Ok!
Plus that ivy cup & saucer was cream & green, right?
😊❤❤❤
Fun video! Thanks for sharing!
I think orphan pieces would be good for people looking for that piece they don't have...someone has the creamer and the rest!!
Always a fun time watching you shop 😅
you want those aluminum with the lids
You had me getting up to check the 3 aluminum pieces I've picked up over the years. 2 Everlast Hand-forged pieces, a trivet with 4 cork feet, and a 2-tiered handled beauty I use to collect small things on my dresser. Also, a candy dish with a t-shaped handle that in unmarked, holds all our keys.---I happened to go into our Goodwill yesterday on a mission to get my Granddaughter a jacket, & found a gorgeous goofus glass shallow bowl. It was truly magnificent on a grand scale. Sadly, I'm purging 50 years of unneeded stuff, and depressingly had no need of that jewel of a bowl, & had to set it back on the shelf. Sigh.---I'd ask a favor for those of us who hunt in smaller market areas...Please provide a quick overhead of the size of the shops you frequent, to give us an idea of how big your hunting stores are!
I read that after WW2 some of the scrapped bombers were turned into decorative aluminum pieces
I was in thrift store and seen an aluminum piece. I picked it up and said out loud, "oh no, they painted it! WHY?" ha, another customer heard me and chuckled. It makes me so mad when I see pieces ruined. 😒
Depression glass is coming up on 100 yrs and the value should go up according to an antique appraiser I watch
I too, was waiting for an answer on what the Keystone item was, but after a couple of months of watching these videos, I recognize that this is all a big experiment and how well you’re paying attention.😂 He does later on collectively reference the items and mentions that it’s a tidbit tray.
My biggest question is why images that are clearly not of the colonial era are often referred to as colonial? I’m not challenging anyone’s knowledge on this I just feel like I’m missing some thing.
A great deal of artistic liberties were taken by designers during the colonial revival. Of the turn of the century into the 1950s and often items that are referred to as colonial would have never been actually found in true colonial era homes. That was a very good question and I apologize for only giving you a quick answer.
Thanks for an answer! Yes! A great deal of artistic license! I don’t understand the effort at “Colonial Revival “ only to put an obviously Victorian image of a couple on a piece. Not to mention Colonial Revival isn’t so far removed from the Victorian Era which at that time would’ve made a Victorian image boring and dated.
Never heard that rendition of buttons and bows ! Only you Scott!!lol
❤😊🐈⬛
Looking fore good will ?
Did you steal it
Oh goofy
Not ha ha
🥦🟦my focus is off today, too!
