He Made Me Do It! Truth in Antiques & Vintage Shopping Stop
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- We're in Chattanooga, Tennessee, a place where Civil War ghosts and mid-century modernism are equally at home! We're seeing the signts while touring a really fantastic antique mall we've never seen, and there's a lot of great stuff to show you too...
Dirty Jane's is a big, stylish, decorative but true antique mall, where the merchandise is real vintage and authentic antique! What a variety...wall pieces of Art Nouveau antique stained glass and 1980s mirror mosaics...1950s pottery and 1850s cabinets...archaic Chinese stonework and dynastic Blue Willow...and so much more.
We go backwards in time (and up a hill) to take a sightseeing break to one of Chattanooga's most famous attractions! We see a great view of seven states and contemplate the legacy and horrors of war before we return to Dirty Jane's for more antiquing fun...
More than anything, this store shows how good display makes nice antique and vintage items blend fantastically! Garden focused spring time spaces, rumpus room recreations, French side table vignettes...there's a lot of variety here. A slanting display of modernism and a well designed space of art glass lead to my confession about my own display ethos...

You are so knowledgeable and personable which is impressive in itself. In addition to that sounds as though you price your items quite reasonably. As a bonus, you promptly answer questions and even respond to viewer comments. You are also here, there and everywhere! Amazing 👏 Thank you
Thanks! I'm trying hard lol
"Afgan-istan" You are so clever!
I LOVE the diy lampshade made w old slides!!!!! Brilliant
Wonderful shop, George, thank you for taking us along. That green couch!♥
You’ve become a globe affectionate? I am 😃
Yes I am!
My new FAV hobby! Watch videos live with George and chat with everyone! You are so kind to take this time for those of us who appreciate you… thanks again!
I'm so glad you enjoy the chat! It's really fun for me too
The sheer amount of knowledge in your head AND your ability to recall it astounds me every time. A delight to watch and learn from you, George! ☺️
It blows my mind! At first, I thought he had to be cheating and getting a list of items ahead of time and looking them up before he goes in 😂
Thanks again!
Hello George...I collect these globes (very inexpensively) and turn them into mobiles. I'm an upcycle artist from Albuquerque New Mexico...where you once visited(and around the corner from my home) the Antique Specialty Mall not too long ago. Have a great day. Kenny
Hi, Kenny! I really liked that mall, and turning globes into mobiles sounds like a lot of fun. There's plenty of globes from the 1960s-70s on to use that are not expensive collectibles, and I bet the results are cool!
My thrifter mother was recently hospitalized and has been stuck inside. Your channel has been a bright point in her day. We love you and your amazing videos. Would love to see you in Oklahoma!! Thank you for all that you do and for sharing your knowledge ❤
I hope to get to Oklahoma later this year! I’m glad she’s enjoying the diversion
Better than watching tv shows!
My favorite!❤❤❤
Thank you George, there was lots to learn !
First time finding your site. Very informative and interesting. Will be looking forward to seeing more episodes. Thanks
Awesome, thank you! Please subscribe and click the bell to be notified of future videos
Fun video
George! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
TO TELL TRUTH I DO NOT ALWAYS HAVE TIME TO WATCH .. BUT WILLLLL EVENTUALLY .. BUT I STOP TO PUT THUMBS UP.. CAUSE I KNOW IT WILL BE GOOD... ❤😂
Thank you! I worked hard on this one, I think you’ll enjoy
I live in Chattanooga and this is a great place for antique books and old comic books.
Great video, George. Thanks for taking us along! Linda G
What a wonderful shop. Loved walking through and learning so much from you. Tank you, George.
My pleasure
What a great place.
Definitely learning as we go.
Always love stained glass.
Loved my Nancy Drew books growing up, born mid fifties. Didn't realize most were published so far back, just looked it up. Love the MCM looking spice jars towards the beginning of the video.
Yes! That publisher figured out really that girls wanted heroines
I remember those S&H Green stamps. My granny used to save them to get all the Xmas gifts so much fun. The clowns are great I went to the circus every year just to get those balloon animals lol. I guess we all knew they were not reading them for the articles lol but we will let them think so. lol Thanks for sharing and you have a great day and safe travels
That was super fantastic George!
Wow, that telescope!
Chattanooga is such a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing this, George.
Loved the atmosphere at Dirty Janes! Well put together displays 🏆 I had so much fun with my window displays at my flower shop. Spending time on that brought in money and new customers ❤️🐩
It sure matters if you want to sell better furnishings
I absolutely love the lampshade of slides idea! Artistic genius that I'm going to try (try is obviously the operative word here 😄) to replicate; I have a lot of family slides that are just sitting unwanted. Seriously good shop today George; incredible treasures and a wonderful education. Thank you.😊
It was a really fun idea I agree
YAY!!!
I did so enjoy this video, you never fail to teach us interesting facts about the different eras.
Thank you! I sure had fun there
The sheaf of wheat table might be a Coco Chanel from France.
Thank you George!
My husband George and I really enjoy your videos, Especially when you are in a local Antique/Vintage Shops of your traveling.
I must tell you: Some of the vintage pieces you show and share with us from the Seventies brings many memories of different stages of our life ; From when I arrived in America from Italy and met ,every our first car as you showed the cup with a Chevy Monte Carlo.
Thank you!
Great Video as always
Arrivederci!
Hello! 1hat is wonderful and I"m so excited you are enjoying the videos. I'm also excited you recognize things from your past. Grazie!
@@TheAntiqueNomad Prego, il tuo canale è fantastico!
Your Chanel is fantastic!
I too love the displays. Alot of work
My son lives right up the street from that. Lol
Enamelware is so cool. Always a hot seller. Thank you for all of your knowledge.
It really is!
Oh boy..got up to stretch out some stiff/sore as it can happen and i may be up 45 min...,lol...had a dear family friend that used the old washing machine every week for her family all day Monday after her across the country move in the 70's....looking back to that time and gas crisis and expenses out of whack then too..that was a courageous time of moving way west with a big family and they used what their new "old neat home" had..another fabulous one, thank you George.
My neighbors in Washington state at that time insisted on using a winter washer and hanging laundry to dry on their porch!
Omg Afghanistan. 😂. I about died that was great
Adore that blue glass pendant lamp!
So pretty!
Love to see you videos fun to watch
Another great video with so many treasures to learn about...loved the "afghan"istans comment; cracked me up 😂!
Thoughtful and deep comments about the costs of war, especially civil war.
Really like your pace
I've been binging your videos all weekend! I must say, I thought someone HAD to be slipping you a list of store items, so you could research ahead of time 😂 You are just so knowledgeable about so many periods and styles, it's truly incredible! I've learned so much in just 3 days. ❤
That's so cool! I love sharing what I know and learning back from all of you. It's a great symbiotic relationship!
I know I have said how much I enjoy your videos, but today's was excellent. Maybe it had to do with Dirty Jane's antiques. Prices for everyone's budget, really interesting displays. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of antiques. Peace hope and love
It was sure fun! I'm glad you liked it like I did. Peace, hope and love to you
Thank you for reminding us all that war is NOT romantic or beautiful but something we should attempt to avoid at all costs….. I enjoy learning from you!
Truth
Frame 26:54 + You sure would chase Misty away with all those clowns, even though they are cute. That sad looking one reminds me of Red Skelton. There were a lot of clown images that looked like his style.
I know, I think of poor Misty and her clown phobia wherever I see one
That cable car up the mountain is so like the one, but newer, that is in Wellington NZ. I have ridden it many times and spent many happy hours in the botanical gardens at the top with its great views over the city and the harbour.
How lovely! I'd really like to get there.
Hi George-thanks for the id on the Camark planter. I own one in turquoise & have always wondered who manufactured it. Great video, as always….safe travels!
I really enjoy these videos, improves my knowledge, especially what’s selling well now. Thanks!
This was very fun George! Great to see. Have been getting a little discouraged competing with new and resurfaced. Little different price piont and condition. Thanks again
Agreed! If you have really nice antiques and vintage, the market is small but they always have money and space for more
Have been binge watching your videos, enjoying your observations, waiting to see things I have in your searches to see if my stuff are worth anything…. 🎉
🌷Hi George.Chattanooga is such a beautiful place. Always learning from you George. Thanks for sharing your knowledge 🌷
What a great video as usual!! I loved the tandem bicycle as well as all the nicely displayed booths!! Thank you for taking us along!!❤️
Thanks so much! I really liked that bike, it reminded me of visiting my Aunt Nancy and her familiy in Ohio.
I won a bid($166) on our own auction for a Roseville w/o the the bowl on top..I will send you a pic of it.
Wow great price!
On trail crew those vintage metal water dispensers are still in use and affectionately referred to as "piss pumps."
In my opinion the lamp with the exposed Phillips head screws was interesting in design but mediocre in construction. The screws could have been set below the wood surface and concealed with matching wood grain plugs.
Also the dealer who displayed the orange pitcher with the blue glasses knew about complimentary colors . On the 6 color colorwheel Blue compliments Orange, Red compliments Green, and Violet compliments Yellow. That dealer was likely a designer or artist as well.
Take care!
Good evening, George! I have a complete set of the Nancy Drew books. Those Rings decanters would've likely had to come home with me. I liked those. That rosewood, marble-topped table was a beauty! It would be beautiful in the centre of a large room with an epergne on it. Those stained glass windows were fantastic! Those would be fantastic to build a shadow/light box to attach to the backs of them, so they could be used as wall hangings with light behind them. I have a few items from Queen Victoria's Silver Jubilee. I could really imagine myself having that English oak book case...if I had somewhere to put it. The old Coca~Cola clock was nice. I just got three old clocks out of the shop today. One of them is an 1877 carriage clock. Loved that $155.00 vase! I'm not too big into vases, but that one was super-nice! There was what looked like a cast iron fountain, with a lion's head on it, that caught my eye. I have a globe bank exactly like the one with the airlines' logos on it. Dirty Jane's is a fantastic shop! It isn't all that far from me, either. Thanks for the take-along!!!
Hello! I have a friend who sells Nancy Drew at shows, she says they still are memorable to most generations. The rosewood table! A lot of wow factor in that, and in the whole store. I was so excited to get the two scenic windows, one will go on eBay in my video this month. The English oak is really so lofty and warm feeling, I could have a den furnished in it to hold my collectors' references. I feel like the Coke clock was worth restoring the lettering, it can be done properly and would have brought out its most outstanding feature. I have several old clocks going to the shop! If you get a chance to go up there, I recommend that place, you would definitely have fun and find something you like.
I love barrister bookcases!!
I loved the blue mushrooms, but you didn't speak about them.
I wasn't convinced of their age and didn't feel comfortable representing them
Pardon me boys is that the cat who ate new shoes.
I want the tandem bike 😃 Please bring it to Florida for me 😜 😂
You'll have to pedal half of it!
Love your videos. See you in Mt Dora
I am definitely going to visit that shop! Thanks for taking us along!!
You are so knowledgeable about so many things. Thanks for sharing it with all of us. I've learned so much from you. Despite all your knowledge, a gentle correction: that isn't a streetcar in the San Francisco picture. It's a cable car!
That is true! Streetcars aren’t able to make those hills
I just found your channel and love your knowledge!
Awesome! Thank you!
Live just north of Chattanooga. Going to check Dirty Jane's out for sure. Great tour of our local places.
Have fun!
Oh I’m in love with the barrister cabinet and the oak gate leg. 😻 Looks like a terrific space! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks George!!❤
So glad you visited Chattanooga, as this is where I grew up. The town has great antiques, especially if you go to Lookout Mountain and come across a yard sale!
Your videos are so cool; Because you know the pieces you talk about & I really see your joy when you find something you haven't found before. My favorite tonight was the small dark blue class top table! Thanks for another great video!
I really like those tables! I’m glad my enthusiasm shows
You could be like Blue Mountain Pottery and mix glasses in old ringer washers.
That's right!I love that story
Hi George
I always enjoy your videos
Always learn something new
You’re great
😊
So nice of you
Ooooh DQ! Daddy is jealous 😊
Luv pinecones have some dishes at lake with pinecones
Georgia find such excellent stores and places to go shopping! I love your videos!!!
Yay! Thank you!
Hey there, really enjoying your fact-filled videos! Wondering if you ever make it north of the border? I have a booth in the Inglewood Antique Market, just north of Toronto and I think you would find much to appreciate there! Thanks again for all you do! ☮
It was so nice to see Dirty Jane's. I agree that stores that stay true to antique and vintage are becoming harder to find. All the "new" stuff really bothered me. I don't patron those places. Per usual, I have learned many things in your videos.
Yes! Thank you! There still is enough cool old stuff to go around
Hi George, how valuable are barristers' cases? I have two but they're in pieces.
I want the Gemini so bad! I got the Aries after YOU sold me the Pisces. I tried to get the Gemini but they person selling it wanted $85 for a yucky yellow color. I wish you would have bought it. My family is Pisces, Aries and 2 Gemini. Next time you see it buy it and I’ll buy it from you!
Also, I love watching you. You are a wealth of knowledge. 😊
Thank you! I bet if you call the store they’ll ship it to you
I literally thought people (men) read Playboy for the articles--no kidding. Thanks George
They just say they do!
Hi George! I love Chattanooga! We would travel through there when going from N Alabama to NC. I loved seeing you on the incline❤️ It’s so beautiful up there🥰 Do you ever get to NC? Safe Travels to you❤️
I sure hope to in the next year!
LOVE that Name ❤
The "jello" clock... My grandma called hers a vomit clock.😂
That's the other name lol
No kidding?!😂
@@TheAntiqueNomad 😂🤣😂🤣 I know you were too polite to say that on the TH-cam! Her clock was amber colored so "jello" would not have described it.🤢
Amen george
George, could you say more about the “glib comments about the Civil War” you mentioned? I’m not sure what you mean. Thank you!
There’s been people in politics and media talking about how we’re headed towards civil war because of incendiary rhetoric of late
@@TheAntiqueNomad Thank you for this explanation!
Hi mikex
You know Grand Rapids Michigan was huge for furniture making, right?
Oh yes! I have relatives from the area. There's still some big industrial furniture makers
I just picked up an 80s globe for acouple bucks! Perfect timing 👍
Cool!
If u want a great ride two hrs from here is the smokey mts which u can go to Cherokee TN all Indian reservations u would find the best unique antique along with the real feathers indians dancing on the street tee pees and the beautiful oocoee drive up there which is the river and waterfalls are all the way on your drive and where the Olympics were for the canoe
That is one part I haven't yet seen, I need to get there!
👍👍
❤
Scales sign of libra is me
Oh yes! Another place I have to visit. I love that bamboo furniture set! So fun to see the way the store is decorated. As you said, I love that it is all truly old. Thanks George!
BTW there's an antique & vintage show in Bristol next month. Will you be there?
I wish I could! May is looking pretty full already
I liked the bamboo furniture as well...thank you for taking us along...and teaching us so much

Awe man, if I would have known you'd be in Chattanooga.....have you ever considered tell your viewers what town you'll be coming to ?
I do when I know I have time and a predictable schedule! I'd like to do a meet up in Chattanooga sometime, it's a good central location
