Being a Brit I have to tell you that the framed picture isn’t of a Scottish castle it’s a gothic/medieval cathedral in York, which is in England not in Scotland ♥️
Why everyone being so rude? Lol. I can see why she misunderstood but also why it seems obvious to everyone else… perhaps the same reason someone from the UK could buy a portrait of a mansion in Canada on a trip to Canada and America, writing something similar… and someone 30 years later thinks it’s America… not all of us are architectural savants lol. Scotty, I think it’s beautiful and I’d totally hang something like that in my home! (PS I have a painting of a Scottish castle in my home. Someday someone may think it’s English lol!!)
That’s what someone else said too. I love that! Definitely will be used for something different but I think that gives it some charm knowing in the past a gentleman might have stored his pocket watch and keys in it. Not me inventing a story about an eccentric physics professor who once owned this box 😂
My dad had something like that. There were holes in the top for him to put his pipes. I don't know if a pipe would fit in the holes on yours or not but my father would smoke a pipe and his valet included space for that
From an “old lady” ( I’m 52) to a young lady- I just found your channel and I think you must be my much younger cooler hipper doppelgänger. I absolutely adore you and our styles are very similar. I don’t know all your terminology but I can glean what Grandmacore means and I’m so in to it! Yes you should have gotten those shoes. Also I wish you had gotten the little round framed bird pictures for me. Absolutely love the embroidered clutch- I have one very similar.
Aww thank you! 🥰 there were plenty of things on this trip I didn’t get that I regret however in my next trips I found even better stuff so stay tuned! Working on a few videos at the moment haha 😂
I love that you're being so sustainable when thrifting! Like thinking if you actually need it, does it fit your aesthetic even if it's super cute so you leave it to someone else! Love that you're being so considerate :)/ Also great video! 💗
I love this video! I need to watch the rest of your thrift hauls. I'd love to see more decor content. I love cottagecore and dark academia, and it's so fun to see someone thrifting for that aesthetic!
Yess! I mean some look meh but the ones I have look great without the dust jacket. Plus idk if it’s just me, but the dust jackets of my books always get a little messed up around the edges when I carry them in my bag. And the tan 80’s top is a dream. I made a scene when I saw it and ran to it gasping 😂😂 a lady in the next isle was like 👀
Awe! Love that you called her your goodluck charm! I have friends that insist I go thrift with them because they swear up and down I have magical thrift powers and the good stuff only shows up if I'm there! 😂 I think some of us just have a better eye/ years more experience...I've been thrifting since I can remember...so I know where they hide the good stuff! 😜
Taking off the dust jacket is definitely acceptable. However don’t get rid of it. If you do decide to resell or regift, return the dust jacket as it helps retain the books overall value.
I loved YOUR thrifting stuff and your humor (you are very well preserved for 85 years old 🤣). So want that old style little orange purse with attached mirror!!!!! Was thinking those old books bound by rubber bands might have been cool by replacing rubber band with ribbon or lace and laid flat on something OR maybe in shadow box OR maybe pics on pages inside put in frames (although it's hard for me to take apart a book).
This is the first video I have seen of yours. I am enjoying it. You mentioned that you take dust jackets off, I do too. For MY personal library, I cut the front flap that the synopsis is on, I glue it and trim, except for the words and glue it in the front cover, then I do the author from the back flap to the inside back page,,,, The ONLY time I would not do this with is on a 1st edition.... I also love the beautiful, deep and solid colors rather than the chaos of the random dust jackets
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the video. & that’s really clever! I like that. And I totally resonate with preferring the solid color over the chaos of the dust cover. I tend to organize my books by size and color rather than alphabetical (I’m a visual person) so the solid color makes it much easier! ☺️
The second wooden box is for the office for sure. It isn't antique, but I had one from the 60s. I had a larger wooden Japanese "writing box" (like a pen + ink sorter + outbound/inbound letters section) from the 80s like that too, but it was made in the style of the 50s-60s, the way we make "1970s style" stuff in 2023.
Thrift 'till you drop kind of day. Yes that's the kind of day I love :D My parents-in-law have the entire set of the soup cups, with all the different kind of soups :D
I always see those cups too! They’re so cute! I’m always so tempted but I own a million cups/mugs 😂 and only I use like 2 of them depending on what’s clean. My “emotional support mugs” 😂
I have that exact same kitten photo! It’s in a round frame too. It was given to me from my great grandma, who loved to cut out images from magazines and calendars for decor. ❤
I love the haul and loove your style! I also decorate in the cottagecore, dark academia style and am always thrifting for stuff I definitely don’t need lol. But it makes me happy and it’s for the aesthetic 😊 Glad you popped onto my home page!
You have such a lovely youtube presence and your editing is better than alot of thrifting channels I've seen! I've been on the hunt for a new person to binge watch that has similar style to me and I'm so glad I came across your channel♡
- That cute little kitten painting is AMAZING, I would have also immediately snatched it up~! - The round frame immediately has cozy, mysterious, royalty portrait vibes; loving it. - The circular bird art is also adorable! ;o; Your style is so cute, it's great hearing you talk about the pieces you found, took home, and left behind! c:
Those platters you regret not getting could be used for so many things. You could display vintage jewelry. Hair clips or even your most used to go makeup items.
I remember the infomercials for the Olde Brooklyn Lantern. The big selling point was that they were made from "genuine metal!" They never specified what metal.
Was searching for some vintage inspiration for my bedroom and came across your channel. I decided to subscribe, We have a shared interest in all the “old lady” things. ❤️
Omg! I totally do that with dust jackets too! It only stays if the hardcover looks icky underneath! And the entire douglas addams for that price?! Hardcover?! I'd literally squeal right there in the store!😂
Thank you! 🥰 the lamp is so cool. I’ve already incorporated it in a photoshoot and plan on doing more. I definitely want to give it an antique brass paint job in the future.
Be careful thrifting dishware, older glassware can contain lead. My sister got lead poisoning this past summer from cute thrifted cups. You can get a lead chemical testing kit online. Just a PSA.
I recently got a very nice Kalvin klein sweater dress for six dollars at goodwill, the best part was that it fit me perfectly and was in great condition!
You should consider buying some of the clothes you likes but would t fit you, and making pillows out of them. Especially that one cottage core dress. Would be so cute.
That might be a good idea! I think though I would only do that for garnets that have busted zippers or a portion that is damaged. If feel bad turning a garment that’s wearable for someone else into a pillow. But that’s just me haha.
Glad you’re enjoying them! It’s a great time to thrift right now. It’s feeling like spring in some areas so people are cleaning stuff out! Lots of cool things to find! 🤩
Oh I'm having a candle and fire light moment as well, but it bugs me a potential fire so I saw at aliexpress some led candles that flickered just like the real candles, and they even have some that you can buy in a set and turn all of them on and off at the same time with a remote control! And they are pretty cheap.
I have a matching vase to the leaf pitcher! It would be super interesting to know where they are from originally, since I got mine from a little antique thrift store in Finland.
The bigger drawer thing I believe is an apothecary style. If you search that it should come up! They’re pretty trendy right now so if you search that you might be in luck!
So... I'm not sure but I am pretty sure that I bought the same pillow sham (just one) from my local charity gift shop... Lmk if you want to make yours a set!
New Subscriber here - I love your aesthetic - very cute thrift haul so jealous you got some great stuff!!! Goodwill does have some incredible education and workforce initiatives I have to say especially for adults that are differently abled. THough i do feel they overprice their items.
That is true - I guess I’m referring to the recent information about the executives, specifically the CEO earning millions in wages meanwhile the workers are paid less than liveable wages in most areas. There was some uproar about that especially since they started raising prices which makes it harder for people that can only afford to thrift to afford items there any more. Some of that has to do with transportation costs going up though... I’m definitely going to have to research the issue more. I love my local goodwill staff and I’m on excellent terms with their local social media & have done collaborations so I still support them. With anything these days there are definitely flaws. & thank you! Nice to have you here.
Yeah I was just about to film a 500 subscriber special and I’m already at 610!! 😭🙌🏼 maybe I’ll wait til 1,000 to do a special (sit down get to know me/Q&A).
Yeah, a lot of people have commented this since the video was published. Since I’m not from there I just went by the writing on the back and made the assumption.
Being a Brit I have to tell you that the framed picture isn’t of a Scottish castle it’s a gothic/medieval cathedral in York, which is in England not in Scotland ♥️
Oh ok, someone had written Scotland 1993 on the back so I assumed someone got it on a trip there or something lol. They led me astray 😂
@@DressMeUpScotty
Read the back again
Definitely York Minster. Walk past it nearly everyday.
Why everyone being so rude? Lol. I can see why she misunderstood but also why it seems obvious to everyone else… perhaps the same reason someone from the UK could buy a portrait of a mansion in Canada on a trip to Canada and America, writing something similar… and someone 30 years later thinks it’s America… not all of us are architectural savants lol. Scotty, I think it’s beautiful and I’d totally hang something like that in my home! (PS I have a painting of a Scottish castle in my home. Someday someone may think it’s English lol!!)
I can't tell if it looks like Yorkminster or Lincoln Cathedral?
The organizer with the drawer is a men’s valet for the top of a bureau . The sections are for keys, change, wallet, etc.
That’s what someone else said too. I love that! Definitely will be used for something different but I think that gives it some charm knowing in the past a gentleman might have stored his pocket watch and keys in it.

More decorating and decor thrifting content will be coming soon 😁 maybe not right away, but depending on circumstances, maybe the next few months.
at 8:32, this is a men's dresser top organizer. change, keys, wallet, pens etc. My father had one
One can never have too many poofy sleeve tops! Amazing thrift finds!
Agreed! Poofy sleeve tops are the foundation of my wardrobe haha.
I love finding vintage books just for the neat cover to display. Bye Bye book sleeve! Love a good vintage haul; so fun! :)
Vintage books are honestly so superior. They don’t make books like they used to!
THE JOURNEY TO THE CENTRAL OF THE EARTH OMG I LOVE THAT BOOK, the movie was pretty good too
Aww! I love that your MIL is your thrifting buddy. That's so cute!
Yeah we always have a good time! 💖I’m fortunate to have a great relationship with my in-laws. They are amazing, my second parents! 🥰
Howdy, I believe that photo is of the York Minster - a beautiful big Cathedral in England. It’s breathtaking!
Someone else also commented about this! I was bamboozled by the writing on the back haha.
I am always take the dust jackets off cuz they almost always look better . Luv this. Omg the tan 80s top 😍
Yess! I mean some look meh but the ones I have look great without the dust jacket. Plus idk if it’s just me, but the dust jackets of my books always get a little messed up around the edges when I carry them in my bag.

Nordic Sweater...amazing!!!
If you put glass back in that pretty white frame, you can use it for a dry erase board.
Awe! Love that you called her your goodluck charm! I have friends that insist I go thrift with them because they swear up and down I have magical thrift powers and the good stuff only shows up if I'm there! 😂 I think some of us just have a better eye/ years more experience...I've been thrifting since I can remember...so I know where they hide the good stuff! 😜
Very excited to find another content creator that does thrift halls for fun vintage stuff.
🥰🥰
That beautiful picture at 6.40 is York Minster! Where I’m from! 💕😊
Oh wow! 🤩
9:53 that is the prettiest pillow I've ever seen😮🧡
Omg I am so jealous of that kitty painting and the vintage purse!!!
Taking off the dust jacket is definitely acceptable. However don’t get rid of it. If you do decide to resell or regift, return the dust jacket as it helps retain the books overall value.
For sure! ❤️ I keep mine in a pretty box on my shelf.

I think that wooden kitty painting was on a collectible plate I wanted as a kid! One of those ones you send away for in magazines.
Oh wow!
The second wooden box is for the office for sure. It isn't antique, but I had one from the 60s. I had a larger wooden Japanese "writing box" (like a pen + ink sorter + outbound/inbound letters section) from the 80s like that too, but it was made in the style of the 50s-60s, the way we make "1970s style" stuff in 2023.
Love this - even if it was 2 years ago !! Thanks for sharing ! I love all your finds
A new vintage & cosplay channel to watch?! Yessss
🥰🥰
Thrift 'till you drop kind of day. Yes that's the kind of day I love :D My parents-in-law have the entire set of the soup cups, with all the different kind of soups :D

I just gotta say that I watch your videos while I do my crochet and you have a relaxing and cool voice! Kind of like M’égara from Hercules 😊
Aww thank you so much 🥰
I have that exact same kitten photo! It’s in a round frame too. It was given to me from my great grandma, who loved to cut out images from magazines and calendars for decor. ❤
Your channel is such a comfortable place to be, after a tough day. I love you ❤
I love your shows and your thrift hauls. My favorite today was the mustard and brown mock neck sweater.
I laughed when you said "because I'm 85 years old" bc same
Such a great haul! I loved the little clutch bag - so cute with the mirror in it! 😊
Honestly that clutch is one of my favs of the haul as well! 💖 as well as the other little clutch.
I love your vibe ✌️🖤
Thank you! ♥️
That looks like the York minster!!
Your hair reminds me of a baroque painting I saw once. Very cool.
I love the haul and loove your style! I also decorate in the cottagecore, dark academia style and am always thrifting for stuff I definitely don’t need lol. But it makes me happy and it’s for the aesthetic 😊 Glad you popped onto my home page!
Thank you so much! 🥰 glad to have you here!
Loving that granny square crochet blanket as well!
Ohh the party glassware were cute. I'd have got them!
8.40 pretty sure this is a calligraphy stand!!! looks so lovely
The kittens Omg!!!
Aren’t they precious?? 🥰
Oh hell yes a new channel to binge
my favorite item you thrifted in this haul is definitely that vintage clutch purse you paid $30 for...super score!!!
Watching this to get pumped for thrifting this afternoon. Thank you for the Immaculate vibes! :)
Yay! I hope you found some amazing things! ❤️
You have such a lovely youtube presence and your editing is better than alot of thrifting channels I've seen! I've been on the hunt for a new person to binge watch that has similar style to me and I'm so glad I came across your channel♡
Also I take the dust covers off all of my books too lol
Thank you!! I’m so glad you enjoy my videos! Glad to have you here 🥰
Chip and dips! I’ve been looking for cute ones since I watched Mad Men lol

just found ur channel! u earned urself a sub 😍
🥰🥰
The small drawer item is called a valet. Used for inkwells, pens, watches, etc. Typically used by men on their nightstands or desks.
I’ve had my old Brooklyn lamp for several years and love it. Just found you, love your video and style.
Thank you! 🥰 the lamp is so cool. I’ve already incorporated it in a photoshoot and plan on doing more. I definitely want to give it an antique brass paint job in the future.
I like your style and enjoy the thrift hauls
Thank you! ♥️

😳😨 ok definitely going to look into that. Thanks for the heads up!
New subscriber here. I can’t wait to binge your videos. Your style and humour is up my alley.
🥰 yay! Welcome 💖
I almost always take dust jackets off. And I don’t save them. And I’m an avid reader and book lover. 😬😬😬
So glad you got the clutch :)
Isn’t it beautiful?? Love it 🥰
8:30 - It's not just for office! It's probably chemist's/medical stuff (sorry my english maybe really bad XD)
i am the same way when it comes to my ✨aesthetic ✨ I'm either really into mid century OR i'm really into weird vintage pieces lol
LOL right?? Like it has to have function but also needs to look ✨noice✨
I recently got a very nice Kalvin klein sweater dress for six dollars at goodwill, the best part was that it fit me perfectly and was in great condition!
Ooo I always love finds like that!
Omg we have the same taste, i love every single item you got, good job at this thrifting round!! The tapestry bags look so pretty💕
🥰🥰
You style is lovely what a great thrift haul 🧡
Thank you so much 🥰
You're darling & precious like that candlestick! That sweater rules.💖💖
Aww thank you! ☺️
WAIT omg i just went to check my shelf and i have the SAME hitchhikers guide book :0

So jealous of your sweaters
Ty! I have so many sequesters honestly lol I didn’t need to thrift more. 😂
I quite enjoyed the pillow you got and the little organizers. Def good finds!
Lots of great stuff loved it
Thank you!
Loving these thrift hauls, need to go now 🤗
Glad you’re enjoying them! It’s a great time to thrift right now. It’s feeling like spring in some areas so people are cleaning stuff out! Lots of cool things to find! 🤩
I take off the dust jackets too.
That wooden thing that looked like a jewelry box, it is a Men's vanity, for him to sit his watch and whatnot in so he won't loose it at bed time.
Yeah a few others were saying that! I love it. ☺️
love your style x
Oh I'm having a candle and fire light moment as well, but it bugs me a potential fire so I saw at aliexpress some led candles that flickered just like the real candles, and they even have some that you can buy in a set and turn all of them on and off at the same time with a remote control! And they are pretty cheap.
Ooo that’s cool! I totally need to get some remote control faux candles!
"To the untrained eye.." indeed!!
I have a matching vase to the leaf pitcher! It would be super interesting to know where they are from originally, since I got mine from a little antique thrift store in Finland.
8:34, I though the holes could be used to hold makeup brushes lol
What area of the country are you in, if you are comfortable sharing? These prices and the selection are so good!!!
🥹 I am delighted to have found your channel! Oh my word! All your interests are mine too!
Omg I also leave all the pretty religious books behind for the same reason 😂 I thought it was just me
LOL when it’s pretty on the outside but full of doom gloom & hellfire on the inside 😂😂
It's a men's jewelry box & coins, keys etc.
I love it all. I have been searching for the drawer bit can't find it though, do you happen to remember what section it was in?
The bigger drawer thing I believe is an apothecary style. If you search that it should come up! They’re pretty trendy right now so if you search that you might be in luck!
@@DressMeUpScotty I found it, I got two and the rest of the collection. Thank you. I adore your videos.
So... I'm not sure but I am pretty sure that I bought the same pillow sham (just one) from my local charity gift shop... Lmk if you want to make yours a set!
So Ironic that you find an old Version of Jules Verne when i've startet to Look for one as a birthday present for my sister. (:
Great find!
I hope you find one! Maybe my video is a sign you’ll find one soon ☺️
I sure hope so. It would make her very happy

Don’t worry all my books are without the dust jackets, purely for ✨aesthetic✨
That's not a Scottish castle. However, it looks like maybe York minster
Yeah, a lot of people have commented this since the video was published. Since I’m not from there I just went by the writing on the back and made the assumption.
"1992, the year I was born! -proceeds to be klutzy-" oh my god how are you me, also born in 1992 and klutzy
It is a mans dresser box
Ooooh that makes sense! It’s definitely going to be useful! ❤️
