      Yeah, the other day I was getting stuff from a dumpster and this lady that showed up to throw her trash away came near me so I got out of the way to give her plenty of space and I just said “hello” and she gave me an ugly look lol

    What a huge contrast from last video to this one -the lady screaming at you to leave vs. some random passerby helping you load the tables into your truck! Faith in humanity restored! 💞

      @87Dinero87 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s true, I didn’t think about that until u mentioned it. The other day this lady gave me a super ugly look when I said hello, while she approach the dumpster to throw away her trash (I completing got out of her way to put away some stuff in my truck) but she still gave me the ugly look lol

    • @VladDImpala
      @VladDImpala 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@tonyaprocell3885 Early American furniture is basically a Colonial style furniture, it has lots of curves and, its more elaborate and fussy. MidCentury furniture is squared off and boxy. MidCentury also doesn't usually feature knobs to open the drawers on the dressers. The lines on MidCentury are sleek, almost futuristic, which is the complete opposite of Early American/Colonial furniture.

    • @tonyaprocell3885
      @tonyaprocell3885 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@VladDImpala that makes sense. I've always been confused by this. My mom had furniture like Kelly found. Only it had curves and was definitely fussier. Alot like my mother. Lol. I love the mid century more tho.. thank you...

    Great to see you back at it.

    • @VladDImpala
      @VladDImpala 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The tops of the tables look like Formica, or some other type of smooth transparent coating, be careful if you decide to refinish the tables. Lots of furniture from the 1950s, through the 1970s, had a transparent layer overcoating on top to protect it from spills etc.

    Old large coolers are great for making stray cat winter homes. A hole is made for the cat to enter and leave. You tape it over to keep intact. Straw is put inside. You can change out the straw as needed .

    The things about those vines….they will cause damage to your house. They attach to the block and cause them to crumble. I also noticed a tree growing up against the house… you need to get it out … by the roots. It will damage your foundation

    Kelly! You've inspired me to keep trying dumpster diving and I have to say that it has already been an adventure. The first weekend was two weeks ago and my friend and I didn't really find anything because we hadn't found your channel. All of the stores we went to were either locked, had no trespassing signs or had nothing in them. THEN I found your channel and figured out we'd been looking in the wrong place. This past Labor Day weekend I went by myself and had a totally different experience! I found two car loads of good stuff! I'm super shocked by what people threw away! I wish I could attach a picture to show you the haul I got. I will say that, amongst some costume jewelry I found, were two sterling silver necklaces!

    Hi Kelly, those vines on the house need to be pulled off asap and dug up from the roots. They suck the moisture from the bricks n cause moisture to the wood n siding, then you end up with damage to your home. Ppl think they’re pretty but I think they’re problems. Also get rid of the tree against the house bcuz you don’t want it’s roots to damage the foundation nor your sewer system. Just some info.
    Good haul. Hope you had a great weekend.

  • @katt9295
    @katt9295 3 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    tables are Mid Century Modern-List MCM in title. Great find! I would avoid sanding them though -I believe the surface is laminate. You can use some goo gone or oil to remove the sticker. usually if you can get a corner partially peeled it makes it easier to remove.I would just use a nice furniture polish or leather conditioner also works great to clean them.if you want to make the color richer or deepen it you can add a little brown shoe polish to the conditioner .Make a little paste and put on a little at a time after you condition it. the wood looks dry so you want to condition first so that it will absorb evenly .

    Mid century modern end tables are what they are called. Remember if a 3 are a matching set they are more valuable. Splitting them up brings a smaller return. By the way I started watching you about 2 months ago but have been laid up from knee surgery. Today I dove for the first time in months and got some great finds so ty for getting me through the tough time I have had of late!

    to strengthen the tables, put a bead of white glue all along the crevices where the 2 pieces of the table join. inside and outside if you can. GOOD white glue, not cheap. it dries clear, and no one will see it.

      They make great paint now that can go over laminate, you only need to do a rough sand to get the sheen off.
