For those asking (from Wiki) A Hanukkah menorah, or hanukkiah, is a nine-branched candelabrum lit during the eight-day Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. Eight of the nine branches hold lights (candles or oil lamps) that symbolize the eight nights of the holiday; on each night, one more light is lit than the previous night, until on the final night all eight branches are ignited. The ninth branch holds a candle, called the shamash ("helper" or "servant"), which is used to light the other eight. The Hanukkah menorah commemorates, but is distinct from, the seven-branched menorah used in the ancient Temple in Jerusalem. Most people incorrectly refer to this as a menorah, when in fact the correct name for the candleholder is Hanukkiah or Hanukkah menorah. A menorah, which has only seven candleholders, was the lamp used in the ancient holy temple in Jerusalem - now a symbol of Judaism and an emblem of Israel. A Hanukkiah, however, has nine candlesticks - one for each night of Hanukkah and an extra one to light the others. According to strict Jewish law, a Hanukkiah should have eight candleholders of the same height and a ninth branch that is set higher than the rest.
Hi Laura. I just discovered your channel and was watching this video. A really schronistic thing happened. At your 8:48 you mentioned you were looking for a patchwork dress from the 70’s. I had been going through some vintage clothing I have for sale and pulled out a vintage maxi patchwork sun dress right before watching this. So funny. It is a size 6. Would that happen to be your size? I would love to send you a photo if it is. I am not tech savvy so I would probably be able to do it through text or email. If you want photos let me know. It is all light pastel type colors. The brand is Grace Elements.
I love the flying birds piece, as well as the whole corner grouping. When you were hanging the birds I thought, "It's too high...no, wait, she'll put something on the piano and it will be fine". 😊 Sure enough, everything looks stunning.
This was great! My trip to PNW just ended. I told every shop in Olympia, port Townsend, bend, hood river etc.. I watch Laura Caldwell and she was here too!
Come on ppl, can’t we get Laura to 100,000 subscribers this year?! Who’s with me? Share, share, share her great talents and awesome personality!!🎉🥰🎉and Happy New Year All!!
Laura, you have such zest for life that you glow and your thirst for knowledge has no limits!! We are blessed that you share with us!! Thank you so much. Hope your new home projects are going well!!
Hi Laura 😊 your videos are very calming. I always have one of your adventures playing in the background as I bake (I sell cookies) they are very relaxing.
LAURA I LOVE THE THINGS THAT YOU BOUGHT ESPECIALLY THE RUG I KNOW I'M HAVING A GOOD NIGHT SLEEP SEEING ALL THE BEAUTIFUL THINGS AT THE ANTIQUE STORES 🥰❤🦋🦋🦋🌻🌻🌻🐝
OMG! Lauren, you brought tears to my eyes, my JEWISH, teacher's eyes... 😁 (happy tears, btw) when you said "Chanukiya" instead of the "regular"... WORDS we're used to hearing... "Menorah" (which is a totally DIFFERENT thing) "Chanukah Lamp" (But according to Halacha, light is forbidden, so how... 🤔) and, of course, we have "Chanukah Menorah" 😮💨... (that Menorah once again). So, good on you, girl, for spreading the RIGHT terminology!
In my old house I had 4 large white globes for lighting hanging from high ceilings. They were all close to 30 inches in diameter. They had been purchased in the 1970's from a design store called "Skan". This shop was in northern Virginia and was very much the "in" place to shop MDM at the time. My husband, who is now deceased, would absolutely adore your films. Thanks so much.
You should have a million followers! Your videos are top notch, entertaining, informative and filled with wonderful finds. I so look forward to your videos!!!!
Hi Laura, I live in Tacoma and I've been in all of the stores that you visited on your trip up here. The ones that I visit regularly are the two Goodwill's that you went to. Sometimes it's a hit or miss for me. It cracked me up, but in your video of the 6th Ave GW, I saw a shelf and a wall candle holder that have been there for months now. I also visit the Value Village on 19th and Mildred. Even if I don't find a thing, I just like to look, I just enjoy going.
I love traveling to thrift! Unfortunately my storage unit was just broken into and all of my inventory gone. About $25,000 just gone. Its just sad the amount of thieves there are in this world. But I love watching your videos as a reminder there are still some good people in the World. So thanks for taking the time to create these.
Yes, I've been a collector for most of my life. I had a collection of swarovski crystal and I was robbed by someone who I thought was a friend. Later I found out he was a professional thief! Now I have few friends or hardly any at all. I hate thievery!
So sorry to hear this. We have a storage unit in MD. Shortly after we packed it, it was broken into. The first thing the manager said to me was do you have any electronics in there? No, just household items and keepsakes. I don't think that anything was stolen, however it is a real violation of our personal items. Recently, our storage company changed to Cube Smart. They offer insurance on the units. Hope this information helps you.
Your ability to style all of your finds is just so inspiring. I love everything you pick up and I find myself adding to my bucket list after your videos. ❤️
😲Yayy! You found a Curtis Jere! 👏🏽🙌🏽 How beautiful it is in the matt black! 👌🏽 You're so inspiring and you've helped me so much with my finds! ☺️ You're home always makes my heart skip a beat! ☺️ Thank you Lovely! 🤎Maddy
That Russian candleholder is made is Moscow and because it was made during USSR the price is on there bc the gov determined a fair price for everything. It cost 8 roubles back then. But because all the people were paid a good wage and the items were good priced, the production couldn’t keep up with demand. So I have so many fun stories where my mom and grandmas tell me how if there was a lineup at the bazaar you just get in line even if u don’t know what is for sale! And then when u get there, you’re like, well I waited in line so might as well buy it! Lolll
Thank you so much for taking me to Wheeler . The shop is amazing and the people are so helpful there. Have visited there for the last eight years around Thanksgiving time. Best place to buy Christmas gifts. My son is a reseller In Roseville California. He always finds mini goodies to take home.
I live in Seattle and agree, Tacoma's antique row is sweet. I, too, have given up on Goodwill of Tacoma stores. Compared to Seattle Goodwill stores, Goodwill of Tacoma stores seem to have less square footage, so they have to more heavily curate their stock. They seem biased towards new, tagged, bulk purchased items--not my jam at all. The two regional store chains are so different that if you dropped me, blindfolded, into one I could tell you right away which region the store was managed by.
The holiday is Hanukah, the festival of lights. This is a 9 candle Menorah used for that December time holiday. There is also a 7 candle Menorah used at Passover. On both, the middle candle is higher than the others and used to light the others.
I love the shiny piano. people in the mid century of which I grew up loved and took pride in their standing piano and a shiny black one like this would just be the cat's meow. The old brown one you showed looks like it came from the early part of the century. Keep this one! I love all of the colors in your vases. These cool colors just give me peace and take me back to growing up in my mid century house with my parents. Somehow I just can't seem to get rid of the light turquoise green walls and matching carpets and the dark Spanish furniture pieces. It's really funky. My mom had unique tastes.
I got really excited when I saw the round brass table top at min 4:40. I have that table. My mom bought it in 1972 from pier one imports. It’s something I grew up with and it brings me great comfort to still have it. I remember the day she bought it. It came with folding legs. The legs are long gone, they fell apart but I bought a base for it and it’s my living room coffee table. 😁👍🏻
So nice to see Tacoma getting the thrift love! My little beautique is in the Antique Row/Sanford and Son building, maybe we'll see ya next time (and I have been documenting my journey of my store on TH-cam!).
Enjoy your videos so much. I know you are busy moving but if you see this Geroge The Antique Nomad is doing an estate sale in Florida on the last Sat. of this month. While he was doing his initial walk thru I saw a few things that looked like they belonged with you. Happy moving in to your new old fabulous house. It is not my style but I love it so much.
I love everything that you’ve put together in that corner space. Too bad the wooden candelabra was already sold but I’m sure you’ll find something splendid. I like the black piano, it ties in with the C. Jere piece.
I would love to see your shipping station and how you’ve set it up. I so enjoy your channel and get inspired over and over to collect what makes my soul happy. Thank you!
Maybe when you slow down one day you will learn to play. I am learning now at 76. I started about 3 years ago. It was just something I always wished I could do but didn't have the time or the money for lessons. It is a challenge!
Morning Laura,I always love watching your videos,love to see what you have up to where you are an what you have brought stay safe an well sending lv ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Your ability to coordinate and style your finds is truly your super power! Love that you always show how you do this at the end of your videos. And unless you want a polyester quilted skirt, perhaps look for someone to make your dress for you.
My sisters house came with a piano she didn’t want. Her 12 year old daughter loved it and decided wanted to learn to play. So to make it a little more livable for my sister she painted it Navy Blue. I think it was chalk paint. So no shine. At first she panicked but once she got the clear wax on it, it changed it completely. I wish I could post a photo because it looks amazing!
I live in Tacoma. Thank you for confirming what I've been saying after watching your video's. Tacoma thrift stores are not as good as yours in Oregon. I find a few things sometimes but it's super rare to fill my cart. I need to do an overnight shopping spree to the Portland area thrift stores.
I am here too, I maybe find something to buy at the Goodwill a few times a month, but most of their better stuff goes to auction or listed in their various ebay stores. Interestingly, Oregon also lists stuff on the website, but their stores seem stuffed compared to the Tacoma area.
How exciting to get that Curtis Jere piece !! I have a large Piece of his as well. Love ❤️ watching all your wonderful videos Laura. Thanks for all the information you provide. By the way I just donated a penguin 🐧 ice 🧊 bucket in your honor to my local thrift store !! 🤣😂😄
I am so glad to see you , I can't get tik toc or any of that stuff cause I don't have those phones like all people have . I am disabled and have lifeline , but I enjoy your videos . God Bless
🌓Hey love, I really enjoyed this video, you found some amazing things as always. Lol thanks so much again for such wonderful content and congratulations to finding the pieces you and your husband been looking for. Your home is coming along so beautifully. 🤎🤎
Your tiki collection are beautiful! Can't wait to see pics in August when you have your party. Such a fun video as always and thanks for taking us along!😀❤
That's so funny. The South Tacoma antique mall is a longtime favorite, even before I had a store and I fell in love with Kelly's booths and just featured her in my last few videos. Girl that area looks so good! Love the rug
I have a patchwork dress , it looks like a holly hobie dress, I will send it to you, it's very large, you will have to have it altered. I hope you do a hat wall in your office as a drop back to your videos, you really mash them hats!
So fun. (Is your piano on an outside wall? If so, double-check for temperature changes which can affect the tuning. You should put a seasonal acoustic piano tune on your to-do list here in the NW!) XOjennyinseattle
That Sermel lady is so interesting that I had to look it up on ebay and there is one for sale just like the lady. Several in the Solds and some have sold for a lot of money. I think it's a good find 💜💙💚💛🧡
Just watched this with my husband,he's now more addicted to your videos than I am!,Haha. You're videos got me through days & months of morning sickness with my 5th baby,so I thank you for that,haha,you don't know how much you helped take my mind off it every time I watched you!.Loved this video, thank you for taking the time to show us round & all your great finds & your home is beautiful 😍 xxx
Hi Laura, I was so excited when I saw this video of you in my home town of Tacoma Wa! Sorry to say that our Goodwill stores aren't to good but the Antique Malls make up for it 😉 ❤
Grrrrl... you are living the life! I love love love your channel. Your taste is fantastic, your personality is beautiful, your knowledge is impressive. Subscribed!
I’m excited to be learning so much about home decor, jewelry and decorating from your videos. I also love the 70’s aesthetic! I thrifted a leather camel with a rider that had a tag that said Egypt 1977. I thought it was meant as a holiday decoration. 🤷🏼♀️ Your home is looking amazing. I can see why your husband loves the birds in flight piece.
I've probably already commented on this older video, but I'm re-watching, and I had to say that I love the juxtaposition of the shiny black piano with all your wooden pieces. I know you said it's not your style, but I think it balances everything out so well.

I came here for someone to explain the differences
Thank you for explaining this... I thought it was a new car company: Hyundai Kia.

The piano is a nice contrast to the matte finish of your pottery. Looks good!
Super finds! I so enjoyed seeing your personal decor.
What wonderful finds. I’m so happy that Jesse found his bucket-list piece. They look a,axing as does everything you’ve shown us in Little Italy.
Those birds found the perfect spot!

Yes, yes, yes! Not only is it rare to find a treasure, Goodwill prices have been getting so high-in my opinion.

Thanks Carolyn! ❤️❤️
Please share your fondue recipe with us. I have recently found a great set.
Always inspiring. Happiness springs though your videos. Ty
Regarding the patchwork dress, I would recommend looking for vintage cheater quilt fabric rather than using an actual quilt. It’s out there!
Your tiki collection are beautiful! Can't wait to see pics in August when you have your party. Such a fun video as always and thanks for taking us along!😀❤
That's so funny. The South Tacoma antique mall is a longtime favorite, even before I had a store and I fell in love with Kelly's booths and just featured her in my last few videos. Girl that area looks so good! Love the rug
I have a patchwork dress , it looks like a holly hobie dress, I will send it to you, it's very large, you will have to have it altered. I hope you do a hat wall in your office as a drop back to your videos, you really mash them hats!
If you can’t find a bigger globe fixture , what about two small ones .Maybe one hanging lower than the other.Just a suggestion.
I love that name " Rustic Hippo "😄
So fun.
(Is your piano on an outside wall? If so, double-check for temperature changes which can affect the tuning. You should put a seasonal acoustic piano tune on your to-do list here in the NW!) XOjennyinseattle

Hi Laura, I was so excited when I saw this video of you in my home town of Tacoma Wa! Sorry to say that our Goodwill stores aren't to good but the Antique Malls make up for it 😉 ❤
Hannukah is the holiday and you pronounce it Ha-nuh-kuh. What you actually picked up is called a menorah. It’s a beautiful one :)
Menorah’s have 8 candles and Hanukkiah have 9 candles. The middle higher one is to light the other 8 😄
Feliz año laura felicidades por tu casa esta muy bonita me encanta tu canal cuídate mucho chauuuuuuuu
Grrrrl... you are living the life! I love love love your channel. Your taste is fantastic, your personality is beautiful, your knowledge is impressive. Subscribed!
I’m excited to be learning so much about home decor, jewelry and decorating from your videos. I also love the 70’s aesthetic! I thrifted a leather camel with a rider that had a tag that said Egypt 1977. I thought it was meant as a holiday decoration. 🤷🏼♀️ Your home is looking amazing. I can see why your husband loves the birds in flight piece.
I've probably already commented on this older video, but I'm re-watching, and I had to say that I love the juxtaposition of the shiny black piano with all your wooden pieces. I know you said it's not your style, but I think it balances everything out so well.
