Watching your videos make my day!
I love watching I wish I could find all the Lil bottles and bottle stoppers that yLl have where y'all go the selection is just amazing and I think y'all have enough body parts to make some interesting people
Avon perfume sample bottle and so beautiful ❤️❤️❤️ I love it all
I did good vids
An idea for all the finds you agonize about whether to take or to leave, take them then decide. Auction off to your subs. I know you've thought of this before, maybe consider it again.
04:35 As kids, we used to peel away everything on a golf ball, because in the centre was an India rubber ball. That was back in the 1960's. :)
Mum and I both did it as children too! That’s how I recognised it. My brothers and I must have got curious one day 🕵🏻
My favourite bit was where you flicked the switch on and off and made the video go bright and dim. Genius! Hoping you find out more about the ceramic parts from the telegraph pole, and that you do make a necklace out of the tiny perfume bottle.
When I was a child, 60 years ago in Texas, we used ceramic insulators as candle holders.
My dad made wooden sconces to hold the insulators upside down and we’d put a candle in them (not to burn of course!)
My mom had one with a candle , sitting on a table on the front porch. I've seen them made into a water fixture as well.
Looking at that "Twiggy" photo from the '60s, almost in an archaeological way, makes me feel much older than my 70 years.
That one head you found, the girl broken pretty bad looks like the Campbell’s soup girl.
@Carrie Hanifen That's the first thing I thought, too❣
That’s also the very first thing I thought!
I thought it was a Big Boy doll.
My first immediate thought as well.
exatly the first thing I thought too. She found a Campell's soup kid!
I could totally see you guys filling that little vial with the garnets that you found. Loves it!
That would make an adorable necklace.
That would be a beautiful necklace for sure!!
Yes! Just perfect! 😊
I've used and given gifts of electrical insulators as water hose guides in the garden or yard. They protect plants by guiding the hose around them.
They are PERFECT for that!!! Thank you for the idea! I’m in the states but we are putting in a garden this summer so I’ll look about and see if I can find something other than mass produced for this idea
@@calicocritterscrafts886 Insulators are made to screw onto rods on a pole. Drive a rod or peg in the ground then screw the insulator on to it.
I put glass shelves in my window for my glass insulators. I love the ones that change color.
The tiny bottle is just the right size for Mudlark Barbie!
Oh yes! Perfect! ☺️
If you continue to collect those little bottles and offer them for sale in lots, I bet people would buy them. 😊
I live in Canada and bought bottles from Lucy, that lovely woman who used to mudlark rivers.
You could try a couple on Etsy. I have seen others on there. Si Finds cuts the tops off of broken bottles and sells them. He just uses a simple bottle cutter from Amazon.
@@marshacrom6206 not for Codd bottles. He uses a band saw with a blade made for glass. They likely know Si, though, and can ask him themselves.
I would buy them
Yes, they can be cut n used as candle holders or coasyers or plant rests
Those insulators look like Bullers LTD london P5065s dated 1936 by the looks of it! They tend to need a slight shock to loosen the rust on these. The last one that you unscrewed actually looks like a different pattern! These were high voltage poles for 11kv (probably) transmission! If you want to know more, just ask! If you follow Let's go with the Johnsons, you'll know I'm the insulator expert! More great finds this video 😁
Hi Richard. I was thinking about you at the beginning of this video. I hope they go back & get the other insulators. :)
I was just going to suggest that Caroline and Phil would know as they know you!!
The large insulators when stood up the other way make lovely tee light candal holders for out door areas. 🙂
I like the new logo at the beginning of the video.
Yes, I'll add my vote for that!
Me too !
Bullers LTD London logo. Always good to see.
Imagine someone looses their button in 1874 and 150 years later it's found. I just love that😂💘
No matter where I am now, I look down and search for interesting artifacts.
Haha! Even when we’re in town we can’t help but take a look in the flower beds on the way past 😅
@Melissa Hedden - I’m in middle America so don’t find much more than trash. We go exploring lakes, streams and rivers a lot and I’m hoping for an old bottle some day.
My mind is going crazy with those brown insulators! Planters, coffee mugs...
I hope they go back and get the rest of them. Maybe take the brother/son to help. :)
Yardley soap is still sold in the market here in Los Angeles. I have the lavender by my sink and the rose n my shower.😁
That ground glass one is a showstopper! 🤣🤣🤣
I absolutely love your channel as you find some very interesting things, & i love how you tell the history of the names you find on the bottles. I also love how you both get excited by your finds, happy hunting for treasures
36:07 that cute half of a little girl looks like one of the Campbell Soup Twins. It's a soup company in the USA and the other twin is a boy.
The time capsule, my grandfather would store his nails and screws in jars and squirt some oil in the jar to keep the contents from rusting.
Stay Blessed, Safe and Healthy
From Florida, USA
That large button is the kind of button we use on coats many times in the USA. I have one such winter coat with the exact shape. It never slips out of the button hole and are better than round ones with heavy winter wear. 😊💕
It’s called a toggle button
OMG that super small bottle Alex found and said about making a necklace. Man I would love that
Oh my goodness! How did you get that casing so polished?!! You should do a video with cleaning tips for finds! (If you haven’t already!) 😉
Those insulators ,l have some here in U S,l got my husband to put them on wooden sticks going down a path as hose guards so the hose doesn’t knock the plants when we water the garden ,
YAY!!! Binge watching/re-watching your older uploads. Enjoying every second, as if it were the first time I watched them. Imagine my surprise and delight, when I actually found an episode that I hadn't previously watched!!! 👍❤
Such nice finds I wanted you to keep looking even when you were finished I was so excited I wanted to be there with you two ❤️🇨🇦
That editing in the field light switch though.... lol !
I know for a second my brain was like omg you turned off the sun???? 😮 😂
Y'all have the best eyesight to pick up the tiniest of things.
Wish my eyes were that good!
Was a golf ball.
Not sure that one jar is a time capsule, it looks like what my grandpa had in his garage, it collected all the little screws, nails, pins and other tiny stuff.
Yes 100%
The star is the star of David on the cloth with initials A R, great video lady's !!!
That table is beautiful.
The super tiny vial you found at 10:00 looks like a perfume sample vial. We used to get them in magazines here in the States. Not sure if that was a thing in Britain or not back in the 90s.
As a kid, I accidentally broke one, freaked me out bad because it was for a very stinky expensive perfume that smelled so bad to my young nose.
Yes l made the same comment lol 😀
Amazing that it wasn’t broken!
You can still get them now. I've got a couple kicking around. Avon was a big exponent of them.
@@kaydavis6752 yes I was going to comment it looked like a sample cologne bottle from Avon.
All these faces seem to be waiting for you to find them ,I love your hobby and mums you never now what you are going to find love your site i am hooked on it now well done girls
You've found a stopple bopper!! Absolutely made my night!! 💖
How spooky, Kit and Caboodle just found a pottery head with a hat and used it for crafting. You can never have too many bottles, people will buy them from you because not everyone has a magical dump to explore. Lovely finds again ladies. The time capsule looks like a bits and bobs jar from granddad's shed ☺️❤️
Great interesting video as usual Girls. I have lots of Jam/Coffee Jars in my Shed full of Odds n Ends just like that. I might Go Burry some for people to find in years to come xxx
That large long button was used at top of coat to keep you warmer in the winter. We now use toggles
Love watching you ladies every week!
When you have to decide if you will take another small bottle, couldn't you combine a few and then sell them to us. I would love to buy some also the poison bottle. Just a thought. 🎂
It's probably just as well that I don't have a Victorian bottle dump near me. I'd want all the bottles. Wish modern products came in bottles made of bubbly old glass with such an array of colors. Thanks for another fun video!
I enjoy the history with your finds makes it even more interesting..
I love yardley soaps...Have been using the soap since childhood...71 now...
The light switch was awesome, who would have thought it would work so well....that made my day Alex
It’s always cool hearing a little more about what you’ve found...you’re excellent researchers!
Another wonderful video. I think the large button is a toggle button for a coat maybe. It came up beautifully. My fave was the gorgeous blue poison bottle. Have a great day ladies!!!
You find the most amazing and interesting things.
Great👍👏❤❤
Perfume samples used to come on those tiny vials too.
Little colorful broken face reminds me a lot of the Campbell’s soup kids
That was really fascinating about the insignia, thankyou. See you next Sunday.
14:27 As you were showing that bone, in the distance, I heard a cow moo , lololol,
STOTTLE BOPPERS .... love it!
Haha, yes we live in a rural area xx
Wish my son and I lived in the UK. Mudlarking looks like so much fun.
There are places to mudlark and old dump sites in the US too! 🥰
I’m in the UK and there is nowhere that I know of near me. I’ve checked old maps but the only dump I know of is a fairly modern one which was dug out years ago 😔
@@KittyGrey13 It seems like we are in the same place even if it's a different location. Maybe an option for us both would be to take up nature hikes and keep an eye out for rubbish. We could bring a simple gardening trow to investigate. Here it's not uncommon to see signs posted on the roadside warning of fines for dumping. I wonder how many sites haven't been documented at all.
@@tnsocialist1257 Yes it’s so frustrating isn’t it. I know there have been bottle diggers fairly locally and I’ve asked them for hints as one even has a RUclips channel, but I didn’t get any response. It seems they keep to their own digging communities. I’ve checked old maps from the 1880s compared to newer ones, spent hours searching google maps, but nothing... seems all the best spots are in the North or South of the country and I’m stuck in the East Midlands! 😫 Yes I think always being prepared is a good plan. I really hope you find something soon and please let us know if you do! 😁👍🏻
Super finds and stories! As soon as I saw the little head with the hat I thought "John Bull," but who knows!
Really wonderful show today. Always wonderful, yet today was special!
Yeah, it's Sunday and my favorite girls are out and about! Good to see you!
A deliriously,dandy, dump. Your finds are so delightful. Truly.
You gals crack me up! Your disgust at the smell was so funny. You’re dedicated for sure.😂
Another great show💕
Great finds ladies.
I saved this week’s one for watching on my Birthday! 🎂💕🍰
Happy birthday!! xx
I don't know why, but I just love the small and very small bottles...
You can purchase Yardley English lavender bath soap here in Canada still, it's lovely. Great video as always, love Sundays!
The minute you say "I'm not taking any more of these", you find lots of them, and you bring them home, for the last time, again. Oh well. The universe wants you to have them.
Haha, we are tiny bottle hoarders, they are slowly taking over every windowsill in the house 😂
@@NorthernMudlarks , I believe you could easily sell them in lots.
@@NorthernMudlarks a lovely project (also to sell) would be to make window hangings (or from the ceiling) of a handfull of selected tiny bottles hung from a recycled structure (soldered metal finds, driftwood or pretty natural branches). With water they reflect the light and make exellent and decorative holders for plant clippings to develop roots.
I saw one made of witchhazel and massproduced modern tiny bottles the other day, with added metal candle holders stuck into the branch, quite spectacular as a kitchen chandelier of sorts.
Another idea would be to make family ”message boards” from them.
Hung in a row with a stopper for each with a tiny clip on the bottom.
A narrow roll of paper and a pen on a string.
Each family member with their personal bottle.
Message in a bottle rather than some boring board, also less ”public”, and a pretty display for a hallway.
You could drill tiny holes in the bottoms and wire them with leds in clusters for really cool free form lamps.
Like the oriental boho ”grapelamps” only much more interesting and unique.
Select others to sell with a home made perfume if you can fashion stoppers for them. I wonder what a scent called ”Eau de Northern Mudlarks” would smell like?
English roses, woodnotes, oakmoss, salty minerals, rain on soil , a hint of bergamotte tea and sweet thorny bright yellow gorse flowers?
I love tiny glass bottles and viles too. Irrisistable ❤️
Good thing you aren’t saving bottles! Loved your light flicking on and off with the switch you found!
Yes that is tiny perfume bottle. They give them out and mail them out here in states. Great find.
Wonderful video, as usual! ❤️
My mum used to buy me those Glycerine and Blackcurrant Pastilles when I was a little girl.
Somewhere I have one of the tins, full of dress making pins, that belonged to my Grandmother. ❤️x
36:05 I think that "cheeky" little face is the Campbell's Soup kid from the 50's &60's
i think you should sell some of the jars in your etsy shop! you may have too many, but viewers may want to buy and support you by buying a piece of your adventure. think about it!
The clay marbles are called Benninton's made in Germany usually glazed in brown or green or blue with little eyes on them.
Yardley was a popular men's fragrance in the 60's and 70's here in the states.
My moms favorite soap is Yardley lavender soap and I still but it for her. We live in Northeastern Indiana
Also in Canada. :)
You guys always get your bottles so clean. Any trade secrets that you’re willing to share? 💕🌸🌟
Toothpaste cleans everything it even gets rid of small scratches. 😎
@@BertAndSmokey I’m going to have to try that. Most of the bottles I bought on eBay are fine, but a couple are still kind of gross. Thank you. 💕🌸🌟
@@Givulinovich you're welcome 👍😎
@@BertAndSmokey 😊 thanks !
@@20greeneyes20 adding a bit of baking soda to the toothpaste helps aswell. 🤗
You girls are awesome!! We look forward to watching .
The tiniest vial bottle is really nice, I hope you film what you make from it! That roundish aqua poison bottle is pretty nice too...
My great grandmother use to keep a button jar...as a child I loved going mudlarking in her sewing basket..lol
It had so many treasures...
From that fun finding , I have collected tinytreasures from from many past realitives with a small book with descriptions and info for my grands and beyond.
I feel like the tiny vial could be a year catcher? So cuuute!!
21:16 seems that light switch still works! 😂so fun!
I absolutely love little bottles and if you sold them on your site I would most likely buy them. I use them for creations I make. 💕🙏🔥💕
I adore you both. Sending ❤️❤️❤️ back to you from NYC.
4-26-21, I love the lock set and key what a great find.
Okay, here we go! :-) More great finds, you larks! Those insulators are very neat... you need to go get the rest of them. They need to be in your garden! Alex, your poor hands... are those scratches from brambles or an ill-humoured pussycat? Those coffee bottles full of random crap can be found in any bloke's garage... we can't resist saving odds & sods which "may come in handy some time". Love the patch, that's a very cool story. Cheers from NS!
That cut glass stopper is beautiful! 😍 my daughter found a small similar one at our beach, but yours is a stunning find! ❤️
I’m impressed with how clean you get your finds.
Me: I bet that cut glass bottle stopper would fit on the yardley bottle.
Literally 10 seconds later: okay so maybe not. 🤣
Dear Sassy Me.
👍👌👏 Exactly the same here. I even held my breath until she put it in the bottle at last. :-)
Best regards, luck and health.
It only just didn’t fit! So close! X
@@NorthernMudlarks Bet that somewhere in your bottle collection there is one that top fits.
Dear @@sarapulford5957
👍👌👏 I instantly thought/hoped exactly the same.
Best regards, luck and health.
Dear lovely @@NorthernMudlarksLadies 💚💚
I guess that the next urgently needed machine is a stopple bopper grinding device!? Or maybe even a device for grinding inside the nottlebecks!? 😁😂
2) To be serious at last: There are a lot of honing devices on the market (for using with a drilling machine). Even relatively little ones (and not very expensive). Usually/commonly used for honing all kinds of cylinders (mostly for engines and brakes). Maybe you should try it out (if you please kindly allow me this suggestion)?
Sincerely yours
You should take all the good bottles you find. You can sell online!
I love the bottle stoppers, amazing that there are so many
10:05 I have some of those in my bathroom cabinet, with the plastic stoppers in them. They contain perfume samples - usually of the expensive kind. :)
Need a breather from all the US digs - refreshing to see UK "searcher and reclaimers" running the landscape for historical items." Amazing one doesn't see any Irish, Scandinavian, German, French, Western Euro, or Eastern Euro searchers ... So Kudos to Northern Mudlarks !
Always look forward to seeing you. Can’t say that about other people in my life at the moment.Lol. Thanks for the sheer wonderment and a lovely moment of distraction, as we go BACK into lockdown where I live.
The patch resembles the logo on your insulators a bit. And yes you MUST save and keep all tiny bottles and those with lovely colors. I have many bottles that need stopple boppers if you've a mind(s) to let some go 😉
That tin that had black currant written on it once held little candies.
The insulators are lovely !
They look like Oriental houses!!💫
The little clay marbles look like pie weights. They go in the pie pan when you are baking just the crust and they hold it down so it stays flat and doesn't puff up.
When me and my dad we're coming home from South Australia in 1987 we stopped in the middle of nowhere in the mallee scrub there was all these super old telegraph poles on the ground with clear glass insulators we took a hole bunch home. The golf balls i used too hack saw the outer case off and get the rubber string thing go they unwind and spin and go crazy great fun for the dog and the solid ones for lack luster bouncing balls. 🐈🦄❤
Oh Ladies I love your videos and your excitement and all the juicy tidbits about our glorious past. Those glass bottles are simply the best, I love the colors of them too. You simply amaze me how you can find those miniscule beads! Well done Ladies please keep up your great work and keep encouraging us to remember our fine past! 💐
Lovely to find old things like that.
When i was young i was given some of the clay 'marbles' and if i remember correctly i was told they were something to do with old car batteries.
Absolutely knackered 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Alex, I couldn't think of a more apt perfume for you than English Rose!
🌹 Roses and mud! 😅
@@NorthernMudlarks Mud is good for the complexion!
Looks like a great place to dig and sift. Good show ladies.
Your reveals make smile!!! Your home makes me happy! I love old homes! The little amber colored head is very Dickensian. The round flat bead is a rondel.
