- It's like American Pickers, but perhaps a bit more fun. Picking a house that was sold, contents and all, to the next door neighbor who didn't know what was inside!

This reminds me of curiosity incorporated current run of clearing homes you need a helping hans and zenovia!
I watch Curiosity Inc also. Amazing the stuff he finds.
Yes i watch him too...awesome videos as always
Good Canadian show
Agreed🤗
I watch him too!
In 1959 my dad and his two sisters bought three brand new builder homes in a row. The ladies got to choose their finishes. One Aunt chose a palmolive green and black tiled bathroom. My other Aunt selected lemon yellow and black. My Mom picked the exact pink and black tiles and accessories that were in the bathroom of the picking house. My oh my just seeing that bathroom brought back so many memories for me. I loved it!
So happy you hung out with Taco stacks.
Was that tacos second visit
Now everyone can rest easy 😁
I was waiting for the day that you and Taco would start your clean-out business so I was happy to hear that you are thinking along those lines too. There was so much stuff piled in that house I am sure it would be profitable to go back and dig some more and maybe even bring a couple spotlights for the basement and attic. I hope there are some good finds in the jewelry bag. Thanks for sharing another fun adventure!
I love that you like to dig and don’t get all judgmental about the conditions
She's a trooper for sure!
It's amazing to have a friend that turns you and Taco onto houses like this! So many treasures! And as you say all 3 of you guys have different things that you are looking for and point each other to the things that you each like! GREAT TREASURES! Great seeing you and Taco working together again!!
Renee, so much fun to look through stuff that hasn't been touched in maybe 40 years. You and Taco are always so respectful. Tina
An old nursing trick when you go into rooms with unpleasant odors, put a big smear of Vick’s salve underneath your nose. Also, carry one of those Vick’s nasal inhalers in case the original Vick’s wears off. Vick’s will prevent you from smelling almost anything.
You picked some nice items, looking forward to the jewelry. I hope you get the chance to return for another pick. From the looks of it, you could go for a week and still find new items you hadn’t seen before. 🦋
This happened to me once! My husband and I bought a house from the estate of an elderly couple that had recently passed away. The house came with everything, even the food in the fridge! (We tossed it all) but yeah, the place was old, but clean and it took some time to to sell off and donate the contents. It was a lot of fun.
There was a big chest freezer in the basement that also still had frozen food in it! I didn't open it, but our friend Pete had discovered the food a few weeks prior. No thanks!
@@PaperandMoose 🤣exactly.
Renee you need to watch Curiosity Incorporated. He has a series The Musicians Hoard Series. It is amazing what he finds.
I second that!
GREAT VIDEO RENEE!! So GREAT WHEN YOU SHARE AMONGST YOURSELVES!! PETE IS A AWESOME TO INCLUDE YOU GUYS.🥰🥰🙏🙏
It was really nice for Pete to share the pick with us!
What a fun adventure! Really looking forward to the jewellery unbagging! My inner magpie is already excited!
Thank you for saying you will do an unboxing of the bag of jewelry!
Wonderful day picking. To have this offered is incredible. Happy for you and you did well.
OMG 😲 You were in that attic with no lights !! I wanted every box in the house! A pickers dream house. I'm so jealous!!
Knew you were with Taco Stacks. His shoes gave him away. lol
She is trying to teach him how to recognize an antique.
@@adorejunk Who's teaching who LOL
As Taco left a thousands dollars of antique furniture on the curb last week because he had $15 of scrap in his truck, I think the student is clearly him. Renee scored a Civil War diary, she has the touch.
Lauri Hyde - he could have taken it all to the auction he goes to weekly and let them sell it for a cut. Why have that huge van and then not use it to a greater advantage. He wears white to scrap? No common sense.
@@adorejunk Yes, I'm sure there are used futniture stores who would gladly buy the stuff he leaves behind. Or start one
I bought a bag of fabric at an estate sale one time in a bag. I opened before I went in rather house and never took o side. The nicotine smell was horrible. I took it out. It was a beautiful beginning g of a quilt top. I separated the fabric and left out in the cool air for over a week, still smelled very strong. There was a 5 or 6 yard piece that I docked in a solution of soda and small amount of bleach and hung to dry out for a week. Turned out ok. It broke my heart to throw all the rest of the quilt top and fabric out!! I never knew that nicotine smell was that strong and stayed forever!! I love to watch you dig thru things. I feel like I'm right there with you!! Glad you and Taco spend digs together!!
I'm not yapping as much as I usually do but there's definitely talking.
Fabreeze gets that smell out. Used to go to casino with a friend she brought the fabreeze. Sprayed our sweaters and jeans it worked.
I bought a few cotton shirts at a yard sale. They were washed in a very strong smelling detergent or fabric softener or dryer sheets. I tried soaking in vinegar, baking soda, unscented detergent, even Calgon water softener and hung in sun for 5 days!!! Nothing ever worked. They still smell like fabreeze or strong detergent odor. I don't want to walk around smelling like that. Does anyone know a solution to this problem? I probably will never buy used clothes again. THANKS! 🥰 🧡🧡🧡
For the cigarette and mildew odors you can try adding white vinegar to a very warm sink full of water. Baking soda usually works on fabric , you can add vinegar to you washing machine as well.
There’s a cleaner called barkeeper’s friend that works well on some things, just be mindful, it is abrasive and can take paint off figurines, pick a small unnoticeable area to test before you use it to clean painted items.
Great...thanks for letting me tag along...good finds...🥰🥰
Renee, Great Job of filming the digging this time!! Good stuff and lots of fun.
I think it is really nice that you and taco stacks work together at times. Kathy
Apologies to future pickers, but I'm getting rid of as much of my stuff as possible now!
Many do that Janice & many families are grateful when that happens, as sometimes doing a cleanout can become both a burden and also cause problems in the family.
@@PaperandMoose Exactly!
The laundry soap Persil works great on bad smelling fabric items (Walmart).. it even removed albacore smell from my grandson’s work clothes .. also odoBan elimates odors from laundry and carpets (Home Depot) .. both are great products..and will not discolor anything!! Give them a try hopefully they will work well for you .. 😊 thank you for the fun!
You have me thinking of my elementary days. Getting excited whenever a holiday roll by. Decorating the classroom with pumpkins, snowflakes, black 🐈⬛ and bats. Good times 😊
It’s so fun to decorate for the holidays! I do something for every holiday but my main ones are Christmas & Halloween. It bring back such good memories!
Renee you are such an amazing soul.. love the way you tried to get the kitty 🐱 love that about you, amazing!!!
That bag of jewelry is definitely a treasure hunt.
Very nice pickups, Renée ! Over here in Germany, the cleanout business became more and more frustrating for some of my friends. Lots of messie households and their heirs know very well to look up interesting items in the internet and to pull them out. Because you´re a "niche lady", it might be more interesting for you to start some cleanouts. Greets from GER, U.
Would love to do a few cleanouts of my own!
Bless your heart, I can NOT do smokers houses! I did go to esale once, where
they were smokers, and bought a few ceramic items, and had to soak in vinegar
and dish soap to get rid of the smell! IT is just kinda hard to get rid of, but I am
sure there are things on the market to make your job easier! Take Care, Be Safe,
KEEP JUNKING!
Another viewer mentioned vinegar as well!
Another exciting adventure for you!! So happy you did so well. 💗🥰💗
Renee what an adventure 😆 kudos to Pete👍 can't wait for the jewelry unveiling 💕
oh my goodness, I would love to be there digging with you, what fun
I loved the shaker and the jewlery. I saw a atari cartridge under the jewlery bag I was hoping you saw it and directed it to the head picker. It was alot of fun, I hope you go back.
That's going to be a great cleanout.treasues.very nice Rene
Boy you have had a lot of cliff hangers lately. I love it! ❤️😘💞🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌞🐦🐦🐈🐈💐🎶🎶🎶✌️👶🏞️🏞️🏞️
The problem with the house clean-out business is that the house owner is usually hiring you to remove everything. That can be a lot of work, and cost money in dump fees.
My great grandmother, Jenny Marie, collected salt and pepper shakers, so your find brought me back! I loved seeing them all in the glass front cabinet and it meant so much to me that she gifted each of her great grandchildren a set when she passed.
I had a racist print that was in my deceased aunt’s home. She just thought it was cute and didn’t realize the underlying message. I did and I took it to our African American museum for their collection on racism. The day it left my house was a good day for me and the museum welcomed it. An old man about my age said he had heard of this print, but hadn’t seen one until I brought it in.
I once had a friend, who was a hoarder. Could not get to any of the rooms, try to help her, it was very difficult. That's nice of you to help them, Renee♥
When getting rid of cigarette smoke small, white finger will be your best friend. Add it to the wash, to soap and water to clean ceramics and metal objects and wipe down wooden objects with plain vinegar. I’ve been able to remove the smell from wooden furniture but it’s a commitment.I clean the furniture with mild soap first to remove the nicotine and other dirt. When the surface dirt is gone, wipe the object down with vinegar and let it dry. You’ll need to continue wiping it down until the smell is gone. Plan on the process taking at least a week for a piece of furniture. Small wooden objects may only take a copy of days. I’ve rescued antique chairs and left the finish intact. Good luck!
I can't imagine trying to get the smell out of furniture... that takes great patience!
Gosh, that looked fun going through all that stuff.
Hi Renee congratulations on 45 subscribers, can’t wait for the next video to see what have got. Stay safe and take care.Alan.
I spied that bag of jewelry but didn't think you bought it. So I am excited to see your video!!!
Looks like so much fun but then all that thinking you got to do about what you going to get for it what you oh wow what a headache too but fun.
Awesome video, Renee. I'm glad you got the salt & pepper shakers, I love those. It would be fun going through the box. Have a blessed day.🙏😊❤😊🙏
Renee, you and 'Taco are so cute together!
Would love to see her move into Casa de Taco. Clean out all his out bldgs. & give Salsa some much needed company. Plus they look good together.
@@samanthab1923 are they siblings?
karyzzmatic No, they haven't said what they are beyond the fact they know one another.
Hey Renee, great haul. The costume jewelry, use alcohol and qtips to clean. Will remove smell. As long as you do not soak in alcohol, it will not damage jewelry. It's what I have used for years.
Thank you for the tip! I will definitely try this method.
I love going on picking adventures with you ! 😍
The cushion can easily be pressed until dry : same procedure as for paper and books.
Then inject anti-mold and crumble chemistry as often as needed, or best is to remove and replace the inside through that small hole👍. There are different sprays for that purpose.
I was the private librarian for the largest non-accessible library in EU from age 20 until 28. The owner was 85 when I started out of friendship as knew him since 11.
His neighbours were/are the grandparents of a boarding-school friend. Spent many weekends with them as I came from abroad where parents lived.
Weekends were so short. Only from Sat. noon until Sunday 10p.m.
Could only have had one meal with parents if had traveled home, which is ridiculous. The rest of the time at airports and flying.
Renée you and Taco will be the next Tote People at the flea market with all the inventory from this picking trip ! Don’t forget to mask up to protect your lungs though. Best regards from Normandy.
If there is a lot of broken costume jewelry in that bag, I know a lady in Minnesota that fell and had a trauma brain injury. She can’t work a regular job, so she has a company called Hunkabunk and makes jewelry out of junk jewelry. Let me know if you are going to throw any if it away! She would surely appreciate it!
I would like her (or your) info. My sweet late Mama left me soooo much vintage costume jewelry!
Blue Bus Dave was in the same house; I hope ONE of you pickers rescued the Lionel train stuff! (I saw some in his video)
It's amazing what ceramics can create for salt and pepper shakers. They are great to collect as they are small and pretty. Great finds. Can't wait to see what jewellery you've picked x
Until I started watching your videos, I had never even heard of Phillipsburg, but now you have me getting all excited when you find a Phillipsburg item! 😂 Your excitement is contagious! Well done, Renee. Well done. 👏 - Mark (from way over in Madison WI)
Hey neighbor! I’m down in Edgerton! Small world 😃
A little bit of snobbery goes along ways. LOL
Thank You
Clean them put in a bag with fabric sheets. Tooth paste does well on jewelry. *Put in bag with fabric sheets*
What a fun dig!
I was hoping that you got the jewelry bag, looks interesting, there were only 3 (yes only 3 sales around here as we are still in lockdown) and the volume purchaded was smoking pipes, real good deal all for $5., ebay pulled thru so I can eat for another week lol. Will be back for the gold & silver reveal! 🤞
It was a fun but smelly bag to go thru... crazy how cigarette smoke penetrates everything! A few fun finds in the bag :0)
Wow!! What a mess!! Great junk hunt. I happy you had fun. I bought fabric from a smokers house estate sale. Never again. I had to toss it all could not get out the smell. Tried everything.
I too saw that little spider crawling on your shoulder. I just wanted to brush it off so bad. To bad there is such a strong smoke smell. That ruins things, especially someone’s lungs. I have a hard time hearing you when you are whispering. I understand the need for quiet. Only wish I could hear and understand. It might be my old ears. I’ve been waiting all day for your video. Now on to Taco Stacks. So happy you got to pick through this house. Friends are so nice to have. Glad he trusts you enough to invite you along. There are some people who wouldn’t at al. Thank you for the entertaining video.
Hi Carol, I find it hard to hear Renee sometimes too. I just pick closed captioning, it really helps. Have a great day!
Thanks Kim. I will try that. I’m glad I’m not the only one. I even turn my sound up and it’s still hard. I really like Rene and this channel. That’s why I keep coming back.
I love your videos so much ❤. I hope you find gold in accessorues ^-^
I think it is great to have friends in the business. It is ironic that you don’t really look for the same type of items. Love both Taco Stacks and your channels.
Taco Stacks and I do both enjoy vintage shirts, but he knows wayyyyy more about them than I do. I like them to wear but also sell, especially if I come across any that are worth a decent amount of money (that don't fit me haha).
Rene, if you smoke a cigar, I guarantee you won't smell the cigarette smoke! LOL!!!😅 Sorry- sick humor from heavy smoker.
Dawn dishsoap works wonders. Jewelry wash with toothbrush & rubbing alcohol, water rinse. Dry thoroughly even if you use hairdryer. Maybe don't use alcohol on celluloid pcs- I wouldn't.
I love the smell of a cigar, as well as a tobacco pipe (especially in the early morning... that happens a lot at the flea market with the older men walking around).
what a great house to pick in. sort of sad to see some of it, but you are saving what you can. Loved the light up raccoon!
Wish I would have known a buyer for those lamps!
So many treasures in that hoard. You found great things!
There were some really cool S&P shaker sets in the box. My aunt used to collect them too.
Hello Renee. Wow. That had to be so much fun. Stinky but fun. Lol 😆. I can’t wait to see what you find in the bag . I love salt and pepper shakers. I have a few sets my favorite are my turtles there so freaking adorable. Take care. ☕️🫖☕️🫖🐈🐈🕵🏼♀️🕵🏼♀️🕵🏼♀️💯💯💯💯
Can’t wait for the next video as always.
Get one of those double sided frames. You can cut the wording out and put it on the back side
Hi Renee. I so enjoyed the Estate sale. I wonder what is in that bag you got from the sale. Thank you for sharing the Estate sale. It was groovy. God Bless you Renee. Stay safe. Maria. 👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🎅❤❤❤💖💖💖💗💗💗💎💎💎👒👒📿📿📿
Loved the video so much fun . I pray you and taco stacks get to go back soon .
Very enjoyable Renee. Looking forward to the next video x
I purchased some charcoal packets in the laundry section at the store and placed it in a tote with a vinntage leather purse that had a terrible smoke smell. It took a little while but the odor was completely gone after some time.
Cant wait for the jewelry reveal, love the salt and pepper shakers, ive collected a few through the years....yes cigarette smoke is awful. My in laws smoked and when pictures were removed from the walls you could see how much nicotine was on walls.... great video!
My grandfather smoked, mostly in his kitchen. Same thing when they removed pictures from the walls.
He passed away in 1980 and I could not believe the kitchen after my mom and aunt cleaned it. Eight pails of ammonia and water and each pail was a filthy brownish color.
I walked in and thought they put a new fluorescent light in and painted, because everything was so bright. Nope!
Fun video and I always like it when you pick up an item I would have picked up.
It was good to see Mr. Jingles again, I wonder if he is still looking for mouseville? Looks like you found some pretty good stuff, good luck on your finds and,sales.
Love these type videos!
Could you place the items into a ozone box (may need to build) to remove the smells? I know ozone machines can do wonders on all the soft surfaces in cars. What a house to find! 👍👍
You are brave, you couldn't pay me enough to be in that basement.
YAYYYY!! Been waiting for you!!! lol. 3:22AM Thursday here in Australia Renee!!! Time to watch this vid. :)
You are commenting from the future! Have a great Thursday from a Wednesday here in NJ!
Ha ha I'm.down here too but couple hours later
That "Bigger is Better" shirt might go for bigger dollars than $20.
It is really funny.
Yeah, Taco got those wash tubs.
Fabulous video Renee. The salt and Pepper shakers 😍 Watching Taco Stacks next. ❤🐨
"OH!, what's down there?" . "I see cute things!" ~ Miss Moose ~June 2, 2021
Sounds like a line from Alice In Wonderland!
Renee, at 6:20 in you pulled out a Archer Radio Patrol bike radio. They average sell for about $45 on Ebay. Double that if the box was with it.
Could you put the salt and pepper shakers in the dishwasher to get rid of musty smell? Or maybe the freezer to kill the mold? I heard it's good to put stuffed animals in ziploc bag and stick them in freezer to kill dust mites and germs.
You can wipe down the shakers with windex and they will smell cleaner.
I have family in Phillipsburg. So fun to see the local items. 💜
Just bought the Vintage Salt & Pepper Set Little Native Americans And Canoe!! can't wait it to arrive.
Oh I bet its charming
@@helenbailey8419 it arrived today. way better quality then i expected. fast shipping.
What a great house to pick you found some great items I love watching your channel always remember dry or wet baking soda will normally take out the odor for most things even cigarette smoke
Wash the items in hot soapy and vinegar water and put it out in the Sun to,dry
That should definitely do it but if there is still a bit of lingering after that dust off with a cloth sprayed with febreeze.
Nice! I'm over here listing vintage items bought via auction over a 3 year period, clothes mostly right now, in the Hippity History Etsy shop. Also making a vintage skit tonight! Paper and Moose has been a big inspiration to slowly get into UA-cam! Always look forward to your posts!
What fun!! Love that bag o jewelry!! I will tune in!!
Sometimes kitty litter will absorb odors. Also charcoal(no lighter fluid) will absorb odors. The oriental carpet in the basement was old and of quality. Hope it's not wet. There should be a label. You could check comps.
I think you've stumbled on a gold mine. Lots of cute salt and peppers.
I used to find corks,all sizes, at Walmart. Maybe a craft store might have them.
I bought 2 Currier and Ives prints and nothing touched the nicotine on the glass. I had to use a razor blade.
Do it as a clean out. One set price . Get a dumpster. And take what you want all others go to trash. Will need to hire additional help so include that in your price.
This would have been a good house to get as a clean out, however I think if we were to have to pay, the price would have been too high (to realistically make a profit at the flea market). Now, if we were asked to do the cleanout for free but in return take whatever we wanted, I think that would be a better deal.
Great video. Good luck
The shakers are awesome 👏 looking forward to the jewelry haul. 🌸
Boy, when you went in the bedroom I got a peek at the headboard of the bed. I have that bed upstairs. It was here when we moved in.
Great friends to share picking opportunities.
Heat up glass cleaner in the microwave. Drop the jewelry in. Soak till cools! Use a toothbrush to scrub. Rinse and dry!
What a fun adventure! I'd still be looking through it if I had been there😄
Great video Renee x
Thanks so much!
