Antiquing on Western
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ต.ค. 2024
- When I first began to furnish my 1935 house, I frequented lots of antique shops as well as thrift stores. Now that my house is full, I do it less often…and sometimes for other reasons. Nostalgia, idea shopping, looking for very specific things. But I can always count on it being an adventure and a wonderful respite from the summer heat!

My 2 vices/weaknesses: antique stores and plant nurseries/gardens. Antiquing means flower pots, garden furniture and wrought iron! Robin from Georgia
Yes Robin. I would be looking for the same stuff!!🥰
Same here!
@@marthayoder1188 me, too! Lol
My two weaknesses too!
Hi, Robin Maddox! Is this Kathleen’s friend Robin?! I am her sister-in-law.
Please make a video on when Erin comes to your house to view your furnishings that may go to her shop! That would be a fun video!
I always look for frogs for vases, art, pedestals for indoor/outdoor plants, pottery, wall sconce / shelves, light fixtures, lamps. ( I’m a lampaholic ). Funky 70’s art ashtrays. I’ve been collecting since I was 14. I have no business buying anything else. 1 more thing & my house will flip over. 😳
That looked like you and Stewart had a ton of fun. I just love how you gave me so may ideas when thrifting or antiquing.
Loved the antique day trip! I look for blue and white and white ironstone, baskets, old boxes, fish plates as I lived on a lake for thirty years and used them for my entry and dining room walls. I’ve recently moved to the beach and live on the intracoastal so the plates work here as well!
Loved going to the antique shop with you and Stewart! Fantastic array of items to suit a myriad of tastes. The things you have chosen are great, Linda! I especially love the desk and hope you find room for it in your home. BTW, it would be so nice if we could “meet” Stewart in one of your videos! He does such a wonderful job! Thanks for everything you do!
I got so excited when I saw you were thrifting! Two of my favorite things, thrifting and gardening! I say “let’s see what finds me today!” So much fun! Thank you for this awesome video!
I would not be wasting time filming that table. I would be loading it in my truck. Load now....film later.
What a great find.
I am currently on the prowl for cast iron fireboxes and andrions to be used as accents in my potting garden.
This is fantastic Linda..need more of these videos. And of course the home tour of you purging! would love to see that
Antique bird houses, plant stands, old vases, garden animal statues, small tables for outside to put plants on. Bird baths, chandeliers. Outside decorations. Hats for me. And anything I can repurpose for another use.
Antiquing and thrifting are activities I love to do while traveling. You mentioned the outlet stores in Dillon, Colorado; one of my most favorite antique store is the General Store in Leadville. I shop for fabric, lace, pottery and books, but the experience of the uneven floors, stairs, rabbit warren of rooms and smells of old things gives me joy. Someday I'll make it to Oklahoma City and definitely put this store on my list.
I'd love nothing more than to take you around to my favorite
haunts here in Kansas City! I love your style.... thank you so much for taking us shopping with you! 💕
Always looking for old wrought iron pieces, especially a section of fencing. Those tables are fabulous! Buy both!!
I enjoyed this special tour, going out of the garden routine was a nice idea, especially in the antique shop is fun and wonderful, and you are the coolest Linda🧡
I absolutely loved this video! It has re-inspired my interest in antiquing. Have not been antiquing for a very long time! Thank you all for this fun episode!
I always look for old school reading books. Being a retired educator, I love looking at old reading books used in schools. Jennie from Tennessee
Hi Jennie. It’s lovely to find likeminded souls 👍. I have some old reading books that we used at school 50+ years ago, and am sad that I no longer have the reading books that my uncle used 70+ years ago. I keep my eye out for them 😀
@@jennywa3046 I'm sure my children will sell them in a yard sale when I'm gone, but I love to look at them and read them to my grandchildren, especially when I have one learning to read...
Linda ,I love watching your channel! You are so inspirational to me.
When I go to antique stores, I love to look for antique plant stand, small tables, and old flower pots. I especially love going at Christmas time!!
I absolutely LOVE antiquing and going to Estate Sales and oh my you and I have the same taste. I would buy that round table with the different colors that was outside and the one you bought to declutter your topiaries I would use for my smaller potted items. Love that store. You have very down to earth taste. Love it
You are adorable. Love watching your videos. Erin was so sweet and I couldn’t believe that she has grandchildren.!!! She looks 18years old.😀 love her shop and love her and your friendly personalities. I live in N H and Love antiquing. Also 💕💕 Love how antique shops tell stories.💕
I love finding treasures in fabulous shops like this - especially garden items!
I WILL FOREVER LOVE OKLAHOMAN....ESPECIALLY OKLAHOMA CITY AND MOORE !!!!! THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING TO VISIT BY TAKING US ON SHOPPING ADVENTURES IN MY BELOVED OKLAHOMA +💖💋❤💜💞
That should say....I WILL FOREVER LOVE OKLAHOMA. NOT OAKLAHOMAN....haste does indeed make waste !!!!
I buy whatever speaks to me...it says ..buy me !!
What a fun antique tour🧡The memories sparked by seeing the beautiful things from days gone by are very heartwarming🕰 Looking great ladies!
What a great shop! Hundreds of beautiful things. Something like that in my neighbourhood would make me happy and broke:P Linda I have only one suggestion. Sometimes when the owner was in the middle of the sentence you interupted or turned around and focus on something different. I know people sometimes do things like that without even realising so that is the only reason I am writing it:)
Thank you for the heads up!
Always looking for a lovely McCoy planter with no chips or cracks!
I saw 4 today while antiquing in west central PA!
My favorite find: an old galvanized mop bucket on wheels. My lemon tree looks great in it!
I too have a hard time buying new. I just love that collected look with the rich history. Gosh I love that bamboo office table. I’d get it in a heartbeat.
I've mixed my love of antiques with modern in every room. Love your video. Live in Toledo, Ohio. I love anything tiny (especially pottery.)
Yes Linda! Shopping in an antique store is as much about reminiscing as about actually purchasing! Ps I love McCoy, Hull and Hall pottery too.
Really enjoyed the tour, I've recently been more interested in buying a vintage item than brand new. Thank you ladies, love from Aurora Colorado, nice treat today!
OH MY!! A shop full of eye candy! I would have looked for iron items for my garden. Loved the frame with stained glass!! You are blessed to live in an area with shops like this!
I love galvanized watering cans. Just got “another one” at a thrift store. They are beautiful, tough and so useful!
I appreciate you telling us about all these places. It is helpful for when I go to visit my parents.
On my list in this great store:
RL-looking leather chair w/the Native American R/W/B blanket on it
Mannequin head
Basket above the candlesticks you liked
The rooster lamp behind your R shoulder in the beg./end shot w/Erin
The colorful round metal table outside
The copper-topped console/buffet - so awesome
The Brown-Jordan table and chairs
The portrait of the Native American Chief near the desk you liked
All the beaded hat bands...
...a girl can dream!
That was so fun!!
I would be looking for yard art, pots etc. Anything else would be a bonus. Love the little bistro sets. Oh look at the stoneware. Loved the video.
Mossy weathered garden statuary is always on my radar as well as copper pots , chairs and baskets and anything else that is unique. Ive been an antiques since I was young . And yes the haggling is part of the fun.This was fun.
Had a great time shopping with you today! I have been looking for the perfect silver ice bucket and lace curtains for my kitchen window. Thrifting is one of my newer passions.
I worked at an antique store for three years. Sadly the building sold and it closed so I moved on. It was an education to be sure. It was the best job I ever had. Working there was like an alcoholic working in a liquor store. I only made minimum wage, which was fine with me. My pay check was spent in the store. Needless to say I did lots of layaway. Lol. I met so many wonderful people and learned so much. I love primitives and gardening items. Each antique has a story to tell. Antiques are my passion.
I look for old tapestries, art for my sunroom and outside. I'm currently decorating the alcove around my front door.
Binge watching on my day off. I loved this video. Thank you for sharing! Best wishes from snowy Tennessee.💕
Antique stores and/or thrifting……my list always includes French copper, oriental rugs, small oil paintings, Royal Doulton character jugs, Spode dishes in mostly the older blue and white patterns, iron plant stands, baskets (although the hubs has me on a basket ban), small clear glass cake stands, Waterford Powerscourt pattern stemware, Dansk flatware, interesting table toppers, statuary, vintage jewelry pins, antique Steiffel lamps (I have too many right now and need to get rid of a few…I’m always trying to pawn them off on my kids) plus I’m a sucker for any small bird figurine (although I have too many of those too). I also collect Royal Doulton Bunnykins dishes. I have whole different collections in Florida where we also have a home including but not limited to a vast collection of ship and seascape oil paintings ranging from huge to tiny, wicker, white metal plant stands, vintage quilts, vintage lace edged and crocheted pillowcases, old seashells, Murano glass fish, books (I love any book with an inscription especially).
Wow, you’re a pro hunter! 😊
@@joywhitley3141 My hubs would say borderline hoarder but I keep stuff moving along too. since I’ve turned 56 I keep only the best of the best but sometimes buy “placeholders” until I find a perfect specimen. 🙂
@@jeanieh9386 👍🏻
I'm currently grooving on old galvanized containers for planters...dish pans, laundry tubs, etc.
I often am looking for pottery, not coffee mugs but vases and jugs and serving pieces. Sometimes I see flower pots and garden art that captures my attention too
I love your plant stand and all that cool wrought iron. So good that you’re supporting local business. Wish I lived near that store, I’d be there! Loved your outfit too, great color😜
Speaking of keeping things local: McCoy, Weller and Roseville were all manufactured in Ohio!
More plant stands, old pots and concrete statues are on my radar. Hope to find an old table or trellis as well. I collected McCoy, Weller and Roseville for years along with calendar plates, but no more room. 😩 I have a hard time passing up anything rusty or aged.
I could spend an entire day in that store! I look for so many different things that would fit my old colonial home, it's hard to say I collect only certain things. But I recently purchased a couple of light pink depressionware crystal stemware pieces. I'm interested in glassware and containers for flowers at the moment. I need to purge things as well, so I have to really love it to buy it. Thanks for sharing!
This shop is so beautiful. So much personality. 🥰 This was such a lovely video.
The new/old 😛 topiary table is great! The Dick and Jane font definitely took me back. ❤️ Thanks.
I love to shop for baskets, candle sticks, candle holders, art work I would have lots of fun in that great antique store!
Oh....like you I love the baskets, wooden boxes and furniture are my favorite picks. I so enjoyed the trip to the antique shop with you. Thanks for sharing! I grew up with antiques that were handed down so It's in me to seek out the antique stores. Love um! Great videos!
I never thought of Antiquing as an activity but this was so much fun ...everything was a conversation piece. I’d much rather enjoy a relaxed day doing this than going to the mall. Not to be gruesome but those places are death traps. Being out in California I always look for the closest exits in case we have an earthquake.
Love antiquing and thrifting with you and Stewart. Great garden break in August. Always fun to find fun treasures !!!🌷
Really enjoyed this adorable antique store, great video👌👍
I hope you purchased that lovely small desk. I enjoy antiquing and thrifting. It is entertaining and educational. Enjoyed this very much.
Obsessed with garden items! I’ve been buying up floral Lenox vases!
I don't know what's most stunning! Linda, Erin, the shop...10/10 to all!
The metal furniture!!!!! 😍😍😍😍
Plant stands, old pots and garden furniture.
What a beautiful shop! I'd be looking for Halloween and Christmas decorations as well as shelving pieces. I love unique hutches.
My type of TH-cam videos! Love it ! Thanks for sharing
I loved the store and Erin was so nice..i would be looking for colored glass to put my water culture orchids in ,baskets and plant stands or small tables ,i just recently bought a small red school chair for 5 bucks at thrift store to use for a large house plant..fun to just look and remember the things from my child hood..here on Long Island theirs thrift shops that have half price day!! I bring my son he looks for old comps.and refurbishes them and I never worry whos going to carry everything and load up the truck..we do the same thing thrift shop on hot days and gardening and repurposing things for garden and home..love all your videos !!
You always brighten my day, Linda, whether gardening or antiquing. This was lovely!
Blue and white dishes and garden items of course!🥴❤️
So enjoyed this tour!!!! I live in Massachusetts so no way is this a “day trip” for me, but still had fun!!!!!! Diane
Couldn't agree more, Linda! Everytime I go into an antique store, I am transported back to my childhood and generations past! Talk about nostalgia! I even spotted the Tonka truck! And to see stuff that was made with such quality and craftsmanship! I have an affection for wrought iron too and love your idea of the table to be used for your topiaries. Very much enjoyed this video!
I luv flea markets,antiquing,thrift stores too....
I love that rooster outside an the metal furniture outside. I always look for items I can use to decorate the garden.
Really Enjoyed found it interesting, oh you could not miss the giant Rooster lol. Loved your shoes funny the both of you had a matching peach vibe. Blessings Luv Ontario Canada 🐝
Linda, You never cease to amaze. your vids. are addicting. Thanks for all of the fun videos. Peace to you and yours, here in 2021.
I mostly just like looking and reminiscing. I keep my eye out for any garden decor.
Helps me to sit down and look and take it all in. Seems i can focus on all the items thats how i take the overwhelming out of my mind
Garden statutes or fountains are some things I look for.
Plant stands, plant pots and anything for plants would be on my radar
Love to go antiquing- looking for “silver” cache pots for amaryllis… and a little chest for a bar!!.. love to come along on your trips!
Loved this video. You spot so many things to incorporate into spaces. Thanks for the ideas! Off to antique shops and thrifting! North Alabama
What a fun day antiquing. I love everything you bought. I would look for plant stands or picnic table like what you bought.
Love love this video!!!!! One of my favourites!!!! It gives people out if the box thinking. I was a person who thought thrifting was gross and now l cant get enough bc of videos like these. Thank you l have thrifted and antiqued so much for my home
Chandeliers, vases, art
One of my fave stores to visit every time I visit my daughter in OKC! I’m in Tulsa and may have to head that way soon! Saw things I loved!😁 Thx for another fun video! 🧺 🪑🪞👒 🪴 🖼
Some beautiful finds there. I never see such treasures in my area. Love your table, enjoy.
Looking forward to when she comes to your house.
Hi beatiful ,!!! Linda the large tall vasquet brought me memories, when I was a child my father had a general store in a small town of Chihuahua, Mexico so the Panamá hats came in that kind of vasquet, my mom call COLOTE she used for the dirty clothes ready for wash. Excuse my English writing.
Currently... Landscape paintings and garden urns, but once we move into our new old home next week, the gloves are off and who knows!
I think you need the mirror behind the desk as well!
I always look for plant stands and pots. I love old metal as well. Thank you for the tour, wish I lived closer!
Firstly,and forgive me for saying,you look SUPER gorgeous in that dress!!
Ok anyway,one of my favorite things to do when I am in Europe,is to visit antique shops and vintage bookstores.
You can find items that are downright museum-worthy,that’s how old their antiques are.
I actually found a first edition copy of Peter Rabbit,by Beatrix Potter,in Amsterdam,a treasure❤️❤️
Oh,ha,I should mention,that copy of Peter Rabbit is in HORRIBLE condition!!
It’s the only way I could afford it🙄
I remember when those were sold as clothes hampers. Very inexpensive @ the time. Fun visit Linda. I too love rusty objects. Nature's patina. Stone top on coffee table would be less maintenance & a lovely finish. Oh yes, you have one already. Nevermind.😄 Hello to Stuart. 💕😄
Really enjoyed seeing what your local shops look like. Beautiful shop & shopkeeper!!!! Thank you, Linda & Stewart. That was fun ! Now - back to vacuuming….
That was so much fun. Erin is a lovely person. Never thought of the concept of antiquing as bringing back memories of childhood objects. Very interesting. Love from sunny Sydney, Australia.
On my antique radar is something I can use for a small coffee bar. Counter height. I found one but it was too pricey with a bazillion layers of paint. Still looking.
I have kept my little school house & wind up clock, which was at the beginning of the store, that my children played with and then my grandchildren played with as well. Keeping those now for future great-grandchildren! In addition, I have the same tall basket which DOES have a lid and which I DID use as a laundry basket! I am one of those who collect the blue & white dishes/items, nice collection they had! LOVE thrifting AND antiquing. Just today we stopped at a thrift store on the way home from our grandson’s soccer game. I found a basket for which I had been looking. Fun, great video…stay COOL!
Loved the antique shop..... wished your video didn't end. I have collected Wade, sense I was 13.. my GG, (great grandma) started me into them and house plants...50 plus years ago. Blow'n glass animals and sun catchers that brink color into the room. Thank you for taking us on your trip. Really enjoyed it. You too Stuart. :+)
I have the laundry hamper that you loved…. Mine has a lid. It was my husband’s before we got married. It is probably almost 40 years old!
I loved this & the idea of a shopkeeper buying someone's treasures! It's s a great way to clear your space + reduce, reuse, recycle! I love ironstone, vintage mirrors, garden planters, metal, tools, boxes, vintage Christmas ornaments & lighting. I only go to 1 store & they take my donations & the store profits feed the homeless, so it's a reminder to grab my donations.
So you are the treasure hunter with a helping hand.
I’ve been looking for a oak double door spoon carved wardrobe for almost 50 years. Ooooo, I love that dry sink!
Its such a shame l 'm so far away from this magnificent store.
Gr
Marcus
Wouldn’t it be fun to antique together?
@@LindaVater
For sure
Matte McCoy pottery...I love it! Actually any matte pottery.
The iconic Rooster belongs in Oldenburg. lol
