Giant Thrift Store Antique & Vintage Hunt | Everyone Wins!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 тра 2024
- This thrift store is spoiling us all with a bounty of antique and vintage finds our collectors are going to love! We're with Jocelyn @CrazyLampLady , Kate @Followthatbugvintage and Jacob @BernerBrotherAntiques , and we're having a friendly challenge of who can find the most (and the best) cool old stuff as we comb the shelves of Kettering, Ohio's Valley Thrift Store.
This might be the biggest thrift store on the planet, easily the size of a large grocery store and filled with aisles and racks of goodies. We each take an aisle and see who can pull out the best stuff...I find a Boy Scout bronze plate, a deco lampshade and a fondue pot on my aisle, while the others discover character glasses, a brass magazine rack, studio pottery and glass and a host of other fun things our collectors will enjoy seeing in our shops and online.
This place goes on and on, and we find some very special hats, Larry Laslo dinnerware, Cambridge glass, silk ties, MCM coffee sets...and at the last minute, a counter full of jewelry that makes me suddenly the big spender for the day (yes, some thrift stores still jewelry, and yes that is18 karat gold!). We shop, show and tell, and have a terrific time playing together in this huge emporium where the prices are good and the shopping is great! I wish all the thrifts I encounter were this much fun...

George, you may not have won a race yhere but you're ALWAYS #1 in my book!
Thank you, George! You bring so much joy to people, and we appreciate you!❤❤❤
I appreciate that!
Sharing his videos is a great way to show appreciation for George
George, that blue plastic wine glass, I think you’re supposed to stick it into the lawn….or better the beach, on a picnic 🧺
Never get tired of watching you shop George! Thanks so much!
Thank you too!
Fun trip. Love Jocelyn.
George you made me laugh saying collector plates were for skeet shooting 😂.
Man, me toooooo 😂
I love your videos, and I always get excited to see Jocelyn there. 😊 She’s my all time favorite picker.
And you’re my all time favorite antiques expert. ❤❤
Hope all George- Fans are off to a good week!! 💐
Yeah, closer to 60K, email video to a friend and get George to 60K 😊
It's always so much fun to shop with friends.
😊👩🏻🦳🐾‼️Thanks, George! Fun‼️
The Cameo was a excellent score. Absolutely beautiful. I'm glad you purchased the tie with the Disney characters too. If i saw it I would buy too ❤
When I had a Covid for a week a couple years ago, Lamp lady played in the background for most of my sickness duration. It was the right combo of relaxing and entertaining at the time but I must say I wish the algorthym gods pointed me to your channel George. It wouldve been a welcomed edition 😂
George, you crack me up. “Most collector plates can be used for skeet shooting targets” 😅😂
The green silk tie is beautiful. I think it would look great with a modern suit. ❣️
The vintage pink light cover..Amazon or EBay sells replacement chain kits for those. I’ve put one in my bedroom and love it.
Good to know! I wondered if they were available
Whip it, whip it good! 😂😂😂😂
Yay I just became a big fan of Jacob and Kate ~ great to see them ❣Blessings to you George and all 😻
That cameo was just lovely!
George, I always enjoy your videos so much, and continually learn from you! It’s great to see you in our area! I’ve been to this store 2-3 times in my life, and only live about 15 minutes from it! After I saw your video, my son and I went over, and found a few really nice things, even though we’re not, but SHOULD be, resellers!! Thanks again!!
Ive seen people use those hanging light fixtures for a hanging plant 🪴. So cute! 🥰
I think you won for most spectacular item. That cameo is stunning! You mentioned the cat is marked "JJ". Who is that? Oh, my gosh, the Thermoses. I rode my bike to elementary school in the '60s and we took our lunch. I was forever breaking the glass liner. My mom would get furious with me. 😂 I'm always thrilled when I see a thumbnail of you, George, because I know I'm going to learn so much. 😊
I’m so glad! JJ was a Connecticut jewelry maker in the last quarter of the 20th century
@@TheAntiqueNomad Thank you. 🙂
That was fun! I saw Jacob's and Jocelyn's videos too.
Always want to win for spending the most! 😝
Lol I'd like to get it even cheaper and "lose"
You won because you got the 80s ties! Score!
I love shopping with you and when all of you are together, I feel like my Pop Pop hitting a trifecta at the racetrack many moons ago!!❤
I love it when you are able to thrift for jewelry!😊
What fun to see everyone together at a Goodwill. That looked like a great store. Please Stay Safe Happy and Healthy Have A Wonderful Day
Good evening, George. I liked the black and white bamboo pattern on the dinnerware set. The jewelry cases had some interesting items. That cameo was a beauty! Thanks for the take-along!
Thank you! I was pleased with the cameo and I would've liked that music cabinet if it had been priced. The black/white really was a good design, more mod than your usual taste but it worked somehow I thought!
@@TheAntiqueNomad That cameo, to me, was _the_ find. You might could've asked if the music cabinet was for sale. A price tag could have been removed from it, by another shopper...or shopper's child. Yeah, the black & white was much more mod than what I would usually go for, but the bamboo pattern, somehow, creates a sort of "bridge-link" between traditional and modern designs. Bamboo designs have the quality of being able to do that. It's like the Victorian pickled bamboo...it will work quite well in a modern setting.
I’m Glad you got the cameo and I’m glad Jocelyn got the blue dog letter holder. Both well Rescued from the goodwill. 🎉🎉
I can't believe you passed up the high-fashion wig! Another great video, George. Thanks for the education!
I love the shape of Sango's cream and sugar set and the colors and finishes they use too.
Wow you did well! You always win in my book George.👍😊the cameo was way cool.
Ginormous store and super fun thank you!!!
You are so welcome!
Nice buys, George! The blue and green brooch may be a Juliana. I don't believe the company always marked their pieces.❤
It was the right era but didn’t have the right pudding of the solder
Whoa, that Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass record was a blast from my past! My mom & dad had that in their fav LP stash on top of the cabinet stereo in our living room. Oops, did i just reveal my age 🤗
Beautiful music cabinet!
At 14:59 that plate with the cow on it actually said 1942. lol I would have had some problem putting that one back on the shelf too.
It looked like the Borden cow, although I seem to remember Purple Cow restaurants as a kid here in Maine.
That pretty lamp shade, I’d try to find some sort of base to hold it , a round black metal wire type . You could put artificial flowers in it . Or how about pouring a candle in it ? That’s if that glass could stand heat from a flame .
I like those repurposing ideas
I live in this area....wish I knew you were coming!😊
George, somtimes when I'm shopping in the local goodwill or savers, I'll put a random item in the unattended shoppers cart. It's quirky and interesting to see if they buy it.😁
lol I love that idea!
I have the Cambridge blue Caprice (cigarette) box and there shell ash trays. They were my mom’s and now mine. (I’m 62). They sure are beautiful. I lived that clear caprice bowl you picked up.
Hey George! I really liked the Caprice bowl. It has an almost kaleidoscope feel to it. I enjoyed this day if shenanigans!. Kate tells her fans she is allergic to thrift shops, so she must love ya'll to venture in with you! Can't wait to see more of Mexico!! ❤❤❤😊
Thanks! It was fun and even Kate was game for it. Mexico part two coming soon!
Great ties & beautiful cameo.
Blessings Always George
Thank you! You too!
Use a hair dryer to get tape off without damaging the items
Great video George! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for enjoying it with me!
Need that fore Beatles albums
Love the cameo❤ in my book you won for the best stuff🎉
Thanks! I tried to be selective
This was great, love the jewelry counter too. GoodWill is selling theirs online now, however sometimes the ARC is selling piece jewelry. Darn shame too. Have a great day
Loved the 18K cameo you got. I have a small collection of cameos and 18K is my favorite. I also purchase cool ties and I do periodically wear them. I think you had the best haul!
Cool! We share our taste
@@TheAntiqueNomadand share our home state of Washington!
I've seen this from Jocelyn and Jacob's POVs already. 03:45 Sit the lampshade in a brass holder. Add candle? One of those ball candles would work perfectly. 20:44 The pointy-bottom glasses are for use outdoors. You just stick them into the ground to hold them up. 28:34 I have that JJ pin somewhere! My local Ill Will stores don't put out any jewelry at all any more. As for filling a cart, you're lucky to NEED a cart.
That dish is Elsie the cow, very popular back in the 50's, i believe. I believe she was the mascot for Borden milk.
Thanks George! You are coming to my neck of the woods! I live in Michigan.
Very cool! Come see us at Tique Stock
If all works well, I'll be there!
Hola Amigo, como estás Jorge?
I enjoyed this video, cool to see you have fun with your friends 😊
This place is so big, you were not kiding. 👍 Another place to go when in Ohio.
19:24 I was thinking the same... how similar you and Jocelyn are at your choices.
We do see a lot of things alike
You are Devo and that’s a compliment of the highest form 🙏🏻 Truly!! 👍😘🐩
Thank you! I know what you are saying and I accept
Wow, that's a great deal on the cameo.
Lovely the hat Dawling😂
Lol yes
I love the vintage glass ceiling shades. Lived in a pre civil war farm house and we had them in every rm. Wish i had a use for them now
I would collect them! I did once see in a home magazine where the had mounted them to a wall, like a whole wall full. That colorful snake was eyecatching. Might have brought notice to your booth stands from afar. 😊. The cameo was beautiful.
Oh that’s fun!
George, it was fun to see you drop over $130 for that cameo!
Yes! I wasn't afraid though, when I saw it was 18k insted of 14k I figured there was money in it. Nice to get something good at a thrift store!
That upside down lamp thingy … macrame a hanger specifically for it! Could face either way then!
Now to sit back l and enjoy your all's challenge.
Just asked Siri to confirm my memory - The original Wynn Schuler's Restaurant was established in Marshall, MI...the building has now been razed ... that crock held cheese, if I remember correctly, with, as you said, a wire handle ... I have a nice memory of driving there with my uncle to meet my dad there ... I live in A2 and my dad lived in Chicago, so we three met halfway! Nice memory!
Marshall! That's right. My Battle Creek relatives would go over there to have food sometimes.
Fun video 😂
I spy with my little eye By George
I like watching to see if I see something they miss.
So fun! Thank You!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, what a great thrift store!
It really is!
I am realizing I have seen Jocelyn's video of this event 😂 😂
Yup Jacob Berners first time EVER to a thrift store, crazy!!
😂 I hope it doesn't reck their reputation 😂
This was fun!!❤😊
Very fancy clear bowls I love.
Good jewelry finds!
Another fun video 🥰🥰
Thank you 🤗
If you are ever in the east valley Phoenix, Arizona area you should check out Purple Heart Thrift (they have three locations), 360 Thrift (they have a bunch of locations too, all worth checking out), Stuff Thrift and Sunshine Acres. We've found some good stuff at all of these places. 👍
Thanks for the tip! I hope to get to shop there again, Phoenix is a good place to find it
@@TheAntiqueNomad You are welcome. The East valley where I am has a lot of great thrift stores and estate sales. Definitely worth checking out.
I’ve started using the cut or pressed glass instead of canisters they look nice and they are bargain prices right now
Your Easter bonnet
Lol and it's pastel pink!
Neat store
I sold ties at Saks when I was going to college - upwards of $150+.
I'd glue that pink thing to a pedestal and make a beautiful bowl.
Nice idea
🎉 🎉 🎉
You asked what the light cover could be repurposed to. I would personally look up and re-make the original hanging system.
Turns out that’s pretty easy to do
@@TheAntiqueNomad Yay!!!! I love fixing, repurposing and upcycling. Like to try to fix, first. :)
The fab four roving through the GW.
Love it!
Wow, very cool place. Every year, I take my PTO time for vacay and include sourcing of some sort. This year was Peaches to Beaches. Last year was in MI. Year before was Flea Across Florida. Next year, I may have to go to Ohio and check that place out! (Though being a Michigan Wolverine, the thought of going to Ohio for anything makes me shudder! LOL). Bill Knapps was also a classic old restaurant that was in Battle Creek. They went out of business quite a while ago, but sold rights to some bakery items to be sold in stores yet. Every once in a while I see some old piece of memorabilia from that place. Great video.
But u didn't lose me hee hee
Yes here i go
Win Schulers is in Marshall, not Battlecreek.
I live in Marshall.
Saw a red lobster glass they are going out of business, might of been a good buy
Stunning hat 😂
At least you got Kelloggs right , but not Schulers...lol
Yay!!!😅
By George see ya in 27 hours luv
✨❤️🧡💛💚💙💜✨
The wimmpy from Popeyes was so cool . you should have got
Win Schulers is in Marshall, MI not Battle Creek.
Dont be scared
Bye George
Is the show you're going to in Marshall Michigan turkeyville show?
Hi George! I’d love to meet you my home state of Michigan! I’m having trouble finding where you will be May 9-11? I looked on Rosie’s channel and can’t find more info.
Thanks!

😅hey LL
It's all about the glass. I just don't get it.
I really like the videos when you shop alone. Don’t really understand all the videos with the Crazy Lamp Lady?.
I am happy to shop and show whoever I happen to be with, I mainly do solo so for me it's fun to mix it up sometimes.
I'm sitting here thinking I haven't learned anything, and then I realize that place is full of junk and you are, as usual, too nice to say so.
Well it's a thrift store, so you never know if you'll find anything really novel...but I did discover that Larry Laslo design dinnerware that I didn't know about previously. Thrift stores are good for learning about more recent things you might not have previously considered, but they don't often have a ton of unusual things we've never seen
