    Cory- as a person of faith, you do realize there is a spiritual battle taking place; especially as we get closer to Resurrection Sunday.

I have so many different collections, but they all are rustic and old..right now, I’m searching for old books, copyrighted in the 1800’s, my oldest is from 1846, I love the uneven pages and the leather or linen bindings.. it’s good that I live in Tennessee or I would buy every adorable thing in your shop ❤️❤️

    I would have picked up that blue toile fabric. When I moved into my smaller house I made a long valence and covered the dining room chairs. The chairs still look good. I eventually made two table runners from the valence. It’s timeless. I don’t usually buy baskets

    • @DesertDIY

    There are a lot of comments, so I don't know if you'll see this, but: BASKETS. If you're handy with some yarn-type material, create fringes along the top on your baskets. It doesn't even have to go all the way around. For example, you could just decorate around the handles with a fringe or add a few different colors (beige/brown). I think you can imagine that - they sell for $$ much more than a regular basket, too. So very cute! Thanks for the video and for making me laugh out loud with the shopping spree stories. ;)

    The tobacco basket if wetted can be reshaped or in this case made flat. If the color doesn't run, wet it where the bent area is and put a heavy flat item on it and let it dry overnight. It will be flat again when dry. I have actually weave baskets. I took classes on it LoL. I love them all. For me shape and uniqueness matter most.. Great score..

    Agree 1000% when you joked how the best way to source any specific item is to STOP looking for it!! Let it come YOUR way!! Also agree about sourcing Holiday/Seasonal decor OUT of season. I just keep a designated storage place---which is easy to access; SO important---where I toss the out of season stuff immediately after getting it home. Then I forget about it until that season rolls around again. Without fail., am always pleased and surprised at the cool stuff thrifted throughout the year which completely slipped my mind until I open that bin or storage bag. :) This is especially true for Christmas items. We have a couple showstopper pieces of Christmas decor; a flocked pencil tree and HUGE round wreath---really 'high end'---found way out of season. The tree especially retails for MUCH more than I was willing to budget, as the quality of workmanship, materials and attention to detail is outstanding and NOT the norm....it cost a whopping $10, and came my way about two months AFTER I stopped combing the 'post holiday' sales online and at retail stores in vain for a nice one at a decent price. . :) High End Holiday Decor is EXPENSIVE!! Anyway, it was fun as always seeing your big haul, and remain gobsmacked at the trashy behavior you witnessed upon entering the bins. Just ghastly. Happily, this is the exception, not the rule. :) :)

I just moved out of the way, but kept shopping. Finally i had been talking to another shopper while we were shopping when the carts came out. She educated me on what to do. I now know.

    You are correct about being able to find something after you stop looking. It is actually part of the law of attraction. When you tell the universe you want something, like a turkey platter, you then have to let it go & have faith the universe will bring it to you. If you continue looking fervently, you’re telling the universe that you don’t trust it & that energy alone will keep the item away. I see resellers searching for glassy baby’s & I always think that if they would just give it to the universe & let it go, they would find one sooner rather than later. Anyway, new subscriber here.

      Lol.. not so sure about that😄 I google lens every piece i purchase, which sometimes leads to further research. But I also learn alot from watching all the Utube channels of thrifters, antiquers, collectors.. its awesome how much i learn from these channels! Just like I learn tricks on DIY projects, you being one of those😊 I'm older, i have to see it straight on, reading a book does me no good😂

    Ive spray painted those willow type baskets white enamel mostly to glue them together because dry and to prevent more cracking. I do one coat just enough to cover so it still looks a little rustic.

    Hi Cory, The lanterns are a super great find I really like both of them a lot. I love how sweet you are, and I’m sorry that bad lady scared you🥰. If it was me she came up to asking me to switch lanterns…….I can assure you she would have been the one that left scared🤣🤣🤣. I like my baskets to be a medium brown shade, or dark brown with a white wax. If I buy them in a light natural tone I always change the color. Hope you have a great week😀.

    Youre so cute when you laugh. You make your videos fun. Loved that lantern you waited for. I think you could wet that tobacco basket and lay something heavy on it while it dries and maybe it’ll straighten out. Grayish brown is always nice on baskets.

    I tend to like my baskets like you said, with some age and in a toned down gray-ish French county color. The pedestal lantern was my FAVORITE!!! They would have to pry that from my cold dead hands!!!😂 I don't have bins near me, but I'm not sure I could deal with the people even if I did, ha! Great score today!🙌💕

    As far as the basket goes, I prefer older hand woven baskets. If I were to buy a basket like the one you found, I would grey or white wash it to give it a more aged look.

I love that Christmas canister with the lid with pinecone topper! Why would someone want to get rid of that?🤷🏻‍♀️And those lantern’s! What a steal! So happy you were able to grab them! Love your video’s! You do a great job. Always look forward to them! God bless!

    The tobacco basket...if you soak for awhile in the sink and then bend to straighten and place a square weighted something in the bottom...let it dry in the sun on a flat surface, it should straighten out.
    Great day at the Bins!

    You really scored on this trip! I would try to straighten the tobacco basket by soaking it in water, then straightening it. Use weights or something to keep it square and flat until it dries. No guarantees, but wood is more flexible when wet.
    As for what color to paint your other basket, I prefer unpainted baskets to I can use a paint or stain to match my home decor and style.
