There is a product on the market called UNDU. It was created for scrapbookers to remove pictures from old albums that had been glued or taped. It does not damage the picture. It is not an adhesive remover but a neutralizer. You can remove a stamp from an envelope (just in case you wrote something wrong on it) and still reuse it, no harm done. It was advertised years ago removing toilet paper from duct tape! Yep! I keep it on hand all the time. It can be purchased at Walmart, Hobby Lobby and ofcourse, scrapbooking stores. I am partial to the big D and I know exactly what I would do with it. I have 2 grandchildren with the initial D. The oldest would be the one to want it. Maybe I’ll find one some day. Good haul! Thanks for the tour. 😊👍🏻 Oh, I liked the bunny, too.
If there’s ever a way to prove a product works, it has to be removing toilet paper from duct tape! I never would have thought something like that would exist! Add that to my shopping list!
Put black spoon in a bowl lined with foil, add a tablespoon of baking soda and very hot water. Let soak. Tarnish will go to the foil, after polish with a soft cloth.
Use baking soda and water and an old toothbrush to clean the spoon. Many people make jewelry out of the old utensils. Especially if they can find out what year it comes from.
I love watching you're videos in quiet of the morning with coffee. And I appreciate the structure, as if I'm constantly looking over your shoulder all the time. Very fun!!! Create more plz!!!!!
My mom worked for Bell Telephone in the fifties as a switchboard operator. Even though the public never saw them, the dress code was skirts, hose and heels. Things sure have changed. I always love seeing what you find at the flea markets. Your taste is so eclectic in the most wonderful way. I hope you enjoy your tea in the new restaurant ware cups!
The ladies I work with think it's funny I still will not wear a dress without nylons. I can't imagine not having anything on my legs when wearing a dress!
Funny I worked fr Ma Bell in the 70s(old cord boards) old timers wore dresses . Us kids wore bellbottom jeans wedges and halter tops . They HATED US !😳
Sometimes you find some really neat stuff at the very end of the day that was looked over time after time. Plus you got to sleep in !! It will never cease to amaze me what people throw out!!! Love the Letters ... The Huge "D" can be for Donald & Daisy Duck and of course with ANY Disney Collection when you display Disney Stuff!! Another fun day at the flea market!!! THANKS for Sharing!!!
Your teacups brought me back to when my family bought an old boarding house in the Catskills. It has long been sold. I still have a few small pieces that my mother had. She used some plates very often. They got a bit dull from the dishwasher. Great finds!
Hi Renee just saw your video. You got many interesting items. I like the paper mache rabbit and the Donald and daisy ducks. I live in Syracuse n.y. noticed the bowl from Syracuse China.
You keep getting better and better. You are like a beautiful rose with many, many layers of petals....that just continues and continues. So enjoy your channel..
Love vintage glassware! When I've gone home to Ohio, I've brought back boxes. When you get for 25¢, hard to resist, but I have way too much. I'm trying to think things out. I've been caring for my mom for almost 3 years, so my house is a disaster!! I lost my mom March 21.. Daddy came for her on their 76 anniversary. Now they are together again in heaven. Bittersweet but she had no quality of life. Mom was blind and hard of hearing and pretty much bedfast. So she's in a much better place now. I have a doll collection from all over the world. I grew up in the Air Force. My dad was a Chaplain so we lived all over. Thanks for sharing all your goodies
You were a wonderful daughter . Being a caretaker is hard on the body heart and soul . . . Now that you have amast all these treasure take time to sit and go thru reminisce make small groupings . maybe donate in your mom an dad's a grouping to your local library school nursing home city hall . They all have window displays to be filled . Keep the most precious things for your own display . Put out a small grouping as P&M does so when you have visitors you can " tell the story " of the items. Of course I'm sure if you're comfortable Renee seems the perfect person to receive some of your memories (I feel she would hold them close to her heart and treasure them) 💞
Loved the vlog, n just 'cos u asked, would love to see more footage of u rummaging if at all possible. I realise u probs wanna keep yr vlogs within a certain time limit, but watching u rummage is so calming n relaxing, n even more so because u don't have music over yr vlogs (which is a pet peeve of mine lol!). It's so much better watching vlogs without music n listening to real sounds. Loved that bunny! :)
I have to get better with the camera... sometimes I wear the chest strap and the footage is awful. That's much easier because it leaves your hands free. Other times I hold the camera and somehow I stop recording and there's no footage. Technology is not always my friend!
@@PaperandMoose haha, gotta love the tech... if it's any consolation, yr filming is awesome! And it must be so tricky vlogging with one hand n rummaging with the other without the chest strap, but you do it beautifully n naturally. Just loving yr content :)
When I started work in 1970 women had to wear dresses..no trousers. A few years later they allowed trousers but your top or jacket had to reach the tips of your fingers with your arms at your side. I never wore jeans as I became a manager so it was pants suits, skirts or dresses. Wore heels when I got to work. Oh I worked in an office till 2007. I kind of liked the reason for dressing up.
Hi Renee...Great finds! I love the Japanese fan, it’s absolutely beautiful, very unique and that little rabbit is too precious. Thanks so much for sharing all of your nice finds.
You came home with great stuff. My weakness is solid white & blue/white restaurant ware. I also have a large (salad size) bowl just like your blue/white, no mark on it either. I love tea in my restaurant cups too. Thank you for allowing us to go along.. Nothing more fun than digging in flea mkt boxes.
I came to you by way of Taco Stacks. I have grown to love watching your channel and all the lovely things you find. The variety of things you select makes your channel informative and very interesting. Got you on my notifications list.
What a fun flea market haul and trip! You are definitely right in saying you can never have too many mugs or cups! I love them and I seem to always have a mug for any haul video I do, lol. I just can't help myself either!
The dolls are my favorite . I bought a small box of porcelain doll parts the other day very Victorian looking . After research found they are 1920s to 1940s from Germany . The history of old things fascinate me. I'll shall keep them not sell 😊
Also, with glued down old paper...you may find the glue has deteriorated and picture will release with a bit of spatula envouragement. Still amazed by vintage shoot from the other day.
I liked the fan. It's rare that people will give you anything. I was always told to take it no matter what it was. Just an old saying I guess. My middle name is spelled Renea. Thanks for showing us your finds.
Great vldeo Rene. I drink hot tea also. The china mugs are perfect. It is sad to see "priceless family photos' at the market. One wonders the story behind their loss to family members.
Love that restaurant ware...have that service in my kitchen...and a number of cups from old hotels. Helo Hatti reminds me of the old 40's hit "When Helo Hatti Does the Helo Hop".
Vintage Hawaiian shirts can go for a pretty penny. I just don't have the patience to measure and list them. If the restaurant service would have had bowls and more items I would use on a regular basis, for $10 I would have purchased it!
One thing to remember is that not everyone looks for the same things, so the things that excite you others might not pay any attention to. Having said that, whatever time you make it to the flea market there'll be stuff for you to find. :)
You found some great things! Most of our flea markets are full of Mexican import tin yard art, socks in bundles and sunglasses, I.e. not much old junk! The paper mache bunny looks almost like it was a candy container, but you didn’t take his head off, so maybe a nodder like you said. I am sure you know, being a Disney collector, that the Walt in Walt Disney was removed by 1987, so your Daisy and Donald figurines were made prior to that. Thanks for sharing your finds,
The rabbit head is on a type of spring, so my first guess was it is a nodder. Candy container or nodder, I'm good with either! We do have some vendors that sell items like the socks and sunglasses, but the majority of this flea market is more vintage/antique/estate clean out items.
Enjoyed the video, never been to that flea Market You do miss a lot by going late but better then not going at all. Lots of Neat stuff but I worry you are on your way to having a “ Hoarder House”!😃 I loaded up my house and barn just like this now I really try to exercise self control Well I’m off to my Tuesday flea market
For what I collect, there's no chance of being a hoarder house as at times I do whittle down my collection. Now for items I sell, those take up some room in storage, so that's why I have to get to the flea market more often to sell.
Paper and Moose that is how it starts! 😃 Just kidding ,I love how you decorate with what you buy I used to be like that too Now I just mainly buy stuff to sell, I have absolutely no problem finding enough to sell what I have to be careful and not buy to much but it’s hard to pass up a good deal
The Donald and Daisy duck might be from the 50s or older. The Alaska spoon might be sterling silver. There was a place in Ravenswood WV that made marbles, a long time ago.
I visited Blue Ridge for the first time yesterday. I live in Lancaster County, so it's a bit of a drive. Hope to make it back later this summer, or early fall.
@@PaperandMoose I did, Thank you! I made the drive with my son, to check it out, and maybe catch either you or Taco Stacks. I only bought a Phillies tshirt, but it was fun seeing all the vendors, and the different stuff they had.
It’s very easy to remove Victorian scrap from pages. It takes some work and only works on the color chromolithographs not newspaper ads. I simply soak the whole scrapbook page in warm water until the image (s) just start to slide off from the page. Use a silicone spatula to carefully move it onto wax paper to dry out. Do not stack the images as they will reglue together because that brown glue is made from animal hide and fish products.
I never would have even considered getting them wet! I will have to remember that for the next time I come across any sheets (which I may have some at home, now that I think about it). Many have stated the freezer method works as well. Have you ever tried this? Will it work on both the blotter ads and the chromolithographs?
Paper and Moose I’ve done it many times. You can try freezing and steaming first. I found steaming can waterspot things. I only soak the heavily brown glued pages where the chromos are well stuck. That’s how you remove stamps from envelopes. Of course the blank scrapbook paper will pretty much be destroyed but dried flat on wax paper those old die cuts, calling cards and paperdolls are fine 99% of the time. I would’ve grabbed those pages in a heartbeat. Photography, newsprint and magazine cut outs you cannot soak.
@@LynneWright Good to know for next time I'm at the market! The price for the pages was a great price, but not having previous experience with un-gluing items, I passed. But for the future, I won't hesitate to buy! (And maybe that seller will be there this weekend and so will the pages - fingers crossed!)
Paper and Moose I hope so, I saw some very nice die cuts like those tea cups! I’m getting a studio this summer, maybe I’ll make a soaking video so you can see I’m not crazy 😉
@@LynneWright Yes, the tea cup one was lovely! I believe you, no thinking you are crazy here! I'm pretty sure I have a few sheets here and there at home, so I will dig them out and try some soaking. Always glad to learn something new!

Would of grabbed that Star Wars millennium falcon and called it a day lol.
Enjoying watching your videos during this lock down. Thank you.
I REALLY Enjoy Your Flea Market Videos!!! It IS Nice Seeing All Sides Of You!!! ❤️😃👍
Use baking soda and water and an old toothbrush to clean the spoon. Many people make jewelry out of the old utensils. Especially if they can find out what year it comes from.
Loved my tea from fine China. Dainty, delicate, & Femanine.
I really enjoy the flea market trips - there’s no such thing where I live. Vicarious pleasure is better than nothing.
I love older pottery..that little blue vase is so pretty💗
Paper and Moose brought to you by the letters R, A, and D! lol! Great finds!
I love watching you're videos in quiet of the morning with coffee. And I appreciate the structure, as if I'm constantly looking over your shoulder all the time. Very fun!!! Create more plz!!!!!

@@joycescott6066 Rebellious! Haha
Still am Renee STILL AM 😝👍👊✌
I just love the bunny and all the letters !
Thank you so much for taking us along to the Flea Market. Your joy when you find a treasure brightens my day. Thank you so much for sharing.❤️
Some places used to be fun, friends were made and you were allowed to laugh.
Sometimes you find some really neat stuff at the very end of the day that was looked over time after time. Plus you got to sleep in !! It will never cease to amaze me what people throw out!!! Love the Letters ... The Huge "D" can be for Donald & Daisy Duck and of course with ANY Disney Collection when you display Disney Stuff!! Another fun day at the flea market!!! THANKS for Sharing!!!
The hors' deuvres forks with the Maoi heads! Interesting! I wish I lived closer, I have so much kitsch from forties and fifties, gathering dust.
What are the hors d'oeuvre forks made of?
That Japanese fan is so decadent and exquisite. That would be something that would have caught my eye. Truly beautiful.
Your teacups brought me back to when my family bought an old boarding house in the Catskills. It has long been sold. I still have a few small pieces that my mother had. She used some plates very often. They got a bit dull from the dishwasher. Great finds!

I once worked at a place where we had a uniform... best thing ever because I never had to worry about what I was going to wear!
Don't laugh 😂 but when I was still working, before my son was born, '96, my co. had Casual Fridays.
Hi Renee...Great finds! I love the Japanese fan, it’s absolutely beautiful, very unique and that little rabbit is too precious. Thanks so much for sharing all of your nice finds.
I was shocked no one had picked up the rabbit, as he was just sitting right on top of the tote. A great find!
That was a fun trip! Thanks for sharing!
Great Video!!! Thank You For Sharing!!!💜🌻💜🌻💜🌻
To loosen up glue put items in frost free freezer for 24 hrs. Has worked for me 😁🤗
Thanks for the wonderful tip! I have several items that need the glue loosened up on them !
Or put goo gone on the reverse side of the paper.
Restaurant ware sells really well on EBay for future knowledge..people love it for its everyday durability 😊
Thanks! That was fun and love the bunny and cups it brought me back to having coffee at bus station diner
You came home with great stuff. My weakness is solid white & blue/white restaurant ware. I also have a large (salad size) bowl just like your blue/white, no mark on it either. I love tea in my restaurant cups too. Thank you for allowing us to go along.. Nothing more fun than digging in flea mkt boxes.
Syracuse China was cool 😎 They actually made fine china also. My aunt who was married on 1958 had a very pretty pattern.
Hey kiddo. Loved your "retro" photo shoot. It's true. Who we are is who we were.
I love bowls too. Those diner cups were really cool.
Also, your right about the green tiki picks, I got some in the 90's. The fan is Japanese.
Love your finds! 💖🐥⛩
Your presentation is great because you give us time to take everything in.
I came to you by way of Taco Stacks. I have grown to love watching your channel and all the lovely things you find. The variety of things you select makes your channel informative and very interesting. Got you on my notifications list.

Great finds, love the vintage diner dishes and the letters.
Love the bunny. Antique candy container
Very beautiful and interesting stuff 🙋My fave were the big cups! I love them for tea.soup..individual macaroni and cheese!Thanks Renee!
Nice eclectic haul today . I love the little crock! I think I would write “hunny” on it and sit it with a Pooh bear .🙃
oh those restaurant dishes! they were made about an hour from me ..thanks for another good video
The dolls are my favorite . I bought a small box of porcelain doll parts the other day very Victorian looking . After research found they are 1920s to 1940s from Germany . The history of old things fascinate me. I'll shall keep them not sell 😊
Love that red bottle at about 4:21.
TheRobinMasters Theory Saw that too!
Also, with glued down old paper...you may find the glue has deteriorated and picture will release with a bit of spatula envouragement. Still amazed by vintage shoot from the other day.
I will have to try the spatula trick. So many different methods of removing the items, I'm grateful for all of the advice!
Love the daisy and donald duck! the bunny was really cute too! TFS
I admire your love for items from my days of youth. Those cups were in many restaurants years ago. Enjoy your tea ☕️
The tea/coffee cup is called restaurant ware, heavy duty made to last for restaurants. Actually very collectable.
Really enjoyed your video, thanks for sharing.
Great market day. Love all your finds. I was hoping that you could have purchased the book of cards. Thanks for sharing.
Love everthing you got
I love the bunny nodder, Donald & Daisy and the two porcelain dolls.
I liked the fan. It's rare that people will give you anything. I was always told to take it no matter what it was. Just an old saying I guess. My middle name is spelled Renea. Thanks for showing us your finds.
I love the skulls. Should have bought the Oscar Mayer weenie toy.
John Burris weiner whistles come in handy 😘
Love the Geisha fan!!😍
❤️ that blue vase. I’d have paid $4 just for that alone. Score!
Loved the fan!!
Thank you❤👍
Put the a up in August and the d in December. ..get one for each month of the year! LOVE THE "D"!!
That's a really good idea!
A red D is for December. I can imagine it displayed with a vintage advent calendar!
My father called those tiki picks "horses ovaries" forks!
Haha Archie Bunker called them similar "Horse divers" I believe 😝
Great vldeo Rene. I drink hot tea also. The china mugs are perfect. It is sad to see "priceless family photos' at the market. One wonders the story behind their loss to family members.
The bunny, is'nt, it's a hare. X

One thing to remember is that not everyone looks for the same things, so the things that excite you others might not pay any attention to. Having said that, whatever time you make it to the flea market there'll be stuff for you to find. :)
Vintage kitchen wares would be cool. Vintage jewelry.
great haul... that bunny made me gasp.
You found some great things! Most of our flea markets are full of Mexican import tin yard art, socks in bundles and sunglasses, I.e. not much old junk! The paper mache bunny looks almost like it was a candy container, but you didn’t take his head off, so maybe a nodder like you said. I am sure you know, being a Disney collector, that the Walt in Walt Disney was removed by 1987, so your Daisy and Donald figurines were made prior to that. Thanks for sharing your finds,

What an amazing market. We don't have anything like that around where I live. Wish we did 😣
❤️ the bunny. You were thinking of us - my husband and I are “A” and “D” 🤣.
I have some of those tiki picks so much I have so many of those
Little goodies very fun
Oh no way! I've been looking for the cafeteria China cups and saucer s and other pieces!!
Thanks. Love your videos
you could put wooden spoons and other wooden things in them blue pottery jar
D is for Delightful!!
Someone already posted but the freezer trick works good for older glue
The fan was best - elegant, & in perfect condition. But I really love your stone wall. (P.S. I would have bought the puzzle.)
Love the videos
Would love to see some of your collections.....
Hey, I just saw my hubby's booth! He tells me he sees you alot. And we've been watching your videos. :)
Are you regular vendors there? What area do you set up in?
Thanks for the heart !!!!!
Love your videos, You found my initials too DAR lol
Love those coffee mugs!
Hi the tiki picks look like jadeite ❤
Loved the fan. Loved the old spoon could have been from the gold rush in Alaska?
That Oscar hot dog I think is a whistle. I know that family - Scotty's Fashions - they got into real estate then.
Those cups are called "Restaurant Ware". I've got a few of them. Mostly the oval shaped plates.
Alaska?
I don’t know...
Alaska when I see her.
Good one!
Kevin McDonnell
😆😆🤪👌
Bunny may be a candy container, rare & valuable if vintage.
Liked the bunny best but the cups were great also.
Enjoyed the video, never been to that flea Market
You do miss a lot by going late but better then not going at all.
Lots of Neat stuff but I worry you are on your way to having a “ Hoarder House”!😃
I loaded up my house and barn just like this now I really try to exercise self control

Cupie doll from Japan pre WWII. Nice find. Fix his legs
The Donald and Daisy duck might be from the 50s or older. The Alaska spoon might be sterling silver. There was a place in Ravenswood WV that made marbles, a long time ago.
They kind of look like the old "Mill" photos from New England. My late husbands family worked in the mills back in the 1920's I think.
oh I need to go here, the ones I went to had crapola
I visited Blue Ridge for the first time yesterday. I live in Lancaster County, so it's a bit of a drive. Hope to make it back later this summer, or early fall.
Did you enjoy the market?
