Hi Friends!! DO NOT call or text any of your information to the number in the comments posing as me! It is spam trying to get you to send information. Reported them to RUclips and working on going through deleting the comments now 😕
Drats! These people are popping up all over the place! I'm sorry this happened to you.
Laura, do you remember how much the Patrick Nagel picture sells for?
I’m 74. My grandmother had a small alcove in her hallway with a built in shelf, and a “slot” for a telephone book, for a landline. Her phone was a black rotary dial
( I still remember her number-PE 60896). Hanging above the phone shelf was a beautiful vintage painting of a young woman in a standing pose. The colors were wonderful. When she died the painting was to be left to me. Sadly, it got “rerouted” to another. I still clearly remember that hallway memory.
Love That owl phone!! I'm 62 and have NEVER seen one like it. My most vivid memory of growing up with a landline phone is my dad ALWAYS listening in on the extension phone from the bedroom, whenever a boy would call me.
It is so different when I was younger, you had to ring the operator and ask for the person you wanted to talk to, then she would ring the person and say Laura is on the phone and she wants to talk to you. What a mess and you would have to talk loudly so the person. Could hear you. We’ve come a long way. 👍🌟
Where I grew up and spent most of my life in Long Beach! I'm surprised that you missed the HUGE Long Beach Flea Market! It's amazing!
Just before my Uncle died, an owl came by my car and actually touched the passenger side with it's wing weeks before he died. I don't see that as a bad omen, I felt the owl let me know his time was short and I was able to go see him in the hospital before he died. Owls are my animal totem so it seemed so fitting! Great video, lot's of fun places to go and the journey always seems better when you take us along!
I never gave up my landline. That owl phone is soooooo cool! You pick up the best finds. During the pandemic when i could not go to the goodwill, I got my "fix" by watching you on youtube.
I love the mushrooms! Great find.
My Husband and I have our Sailboat @ Long Beach Pier. We bought a Laguna 38. It’s a very beautiful location. We love Sailing to Catalina Island for a few days. Or spend 2-3 months in Mexico 🇲🇽. So much fun.
I love the owl phone 😍 My husband keeps telling me that when he retires he's getting rid of cell phones and going back to land lines. So, if anyone wants to talk to him they can call old school or stop by. Lol
The owl phone would be a great retirement gift for him.
When I was young growing up in Chicago you didn’t own your landline phone. You rented it at a monthly rate. Then AT&T opened up a bunch of phone stores where you could actually purchase your own phone. It was an exciting time for phones. (No caller I.D.) We’ve come a long way baby! I love the owl phone. Truly unique.
I thought nothing would bring me back to having a land line....until this Owl Phone.
As a kid I remember having a super long coil telephone cord and being able to stretch it far enough into a different room in our house...to chit chat with my friends in privacy. Although, that left the wall-mounted base accessible to my siblings to hang up my calls. LOL

I grew up in 80-90’s as well. I had the see-through phones that you could see all the wires and chip boards inside. I think it even lite up when it rang? My kids just don’t get it with the good old phone stuck to a wall. But the owl is super cool. Perfect for a cabin land line. I would put in my cabin and make it a rule that if you visit all cell phones go into a basket and can only use the owl while visiting. Great way to connect with loved ones.
I remember latch hook owls and macrame hanging baskets and handbags. I took a class in high school in 1976-1977, called Creative Home Arts, that taught you how to do those things, plus, knitting, crocheting, embroidery and needlepointing. I made a latch hook pillow case and wall hanging, macrame plant holder, embroidery pillow cases, with crocheting edges. My poor parents were the recipients of the pillow cases and my then boyfriend the pillow case!
The first shop you visited had the sofa I grew up with, I’m surprised you didn’t hear me shout out from where I am! Lol! Love the mushroom cocktail stick holder and the mouse toothpicks.
As usual, I love your jewellery finds!
Around age 10, I tagged along with my dad to his job as an insurance agent. He brought me to the biggest home I had ever seen. It had a bowling alley! But the most fascinating thing to me was their Mickey Mouse phone. Love the 🦉 phone too. Makes me smile.
It would just be a "Hoot" to have this feathered friend sitting around. Every time it would ring I would think of you know "Who" . You Laura the best at designing a space with the amazing finds you pick on your ventures!
I hope you went to the City of Orange. A few miles down the road from long Beach. A college town, with a gorgeous old downtown crowded with vintages and antique malls. Truly fantastic! Do not miss it!
I'm in Long Beach!!😁😃
Shopping here is definitely different, don't you think? 😛 Nothing like your stores...
I grew up in the 70s/80s and really miss those days. I had a Snoopy phone as a kid and lost it when I broke my leg later in life and the box that contained it was lost. My grandparents also had a heavy, black dial phone that my young daughter would use for play. Love your channel and I've learned so much from your thrusting adventures.
Michelle's shop is staged like a very high end retail store. It's absolutely amazing! TFS all of your adventures. I haven't traveled since the pandemic started so your videos are priceless! 💙 P.S. The wooden mushrooms are for appetizer picks.
It really is! She’s got so much talent!
When I was young my grandfather had a produce store and a farm. We lived a couple doors down and our house and his and the store and one more neighbor were all on the same shared line. We had to listen for our ring before we answered! The phone in the store was the kind that was wood and hung on the wall. It didn’t have a dial. You picked up the ear piece, pushed the cradle for the ear piece up and down to get a connection and then cranked a metal handle around several times to get an operator. When she answered, you spoke into this black speaker and gave her the number you wanted to call and she would connect you. The first three numbers in the call were read as a word and I guess that made it easier for the operator? Ours was ‘683’ and we said ‘Murray’ for that combo. My aunt still has that old wooden wall phone in her collection. Great video! I went to sleep and dreamed you came to my home town and we explored one of my favorite antique/vintage stores together!
That owl phone is FABULOUS! I need it in my life!😍😂What an awesome find! My favorite childhood phone was the sleeping Garfield one! We had the best 1980s/90s childhood memories!
I live in a 1980’s home and we have landlines in every room. I would love to bring back the land line phone. This owl phone is unique and I love it. I’m crazy about vintage anything. . this would be a “conversation piece” ha ha for sure. Get it conversation piece! I remember as a young teen, having to talk to my boyfriend in the kitchen. Thankfully we had an extra long cord so I would stretch it around the corner. Then one Christmas my parents bought me a Mickey Mouse phone for my room! Loved this video in my ol stomping grounds of So Cal.
Oh, The. Wise Owl….”How many licks til you get to center of a Tootsie Pop, Twoooo.! Give a Hoot, Don’t Pollute!
I love Owls and I love watching Laura Vintage Shop!, Gorgeous Owl Phone😂👍❤️
Being old school I still have my land line. Growing up in the country I can remember having party lines. When your neighbors got a call everyone on your party line would know it. Everyones phone had a special ring. And you could listen on your phone to their conversations. The owl phone already has a place in my home.
This phone is amazing!! When 3 way calling was popular, I would have my best friend on the phone and call her crush on the other line. Once I called and acted as if I was doing a survey for the Sylvania light bulb company. I asked questions about their light bulb usage and how many light bulbs they had. You could hear him counting the bulbs in his house. It was hilarious. After he hung up, my best friend was so excited she got to hear his voice. Oh the good old days!!!
Looks like a fun day in Long Beach! I love the owl phone! My phone growing up was the classic see through phone. 🙂
Oh how cool is that owl phone!! I remember having the long phone cord stretched into my bedroom, for privacy of course. Just so I could yak with my bestie about some dude.. Haa!! Or how hot so and so was.. Love your videos, Laura. Totally looking forward to your Route 66 content.
I have so many memories of my earlier years in the telecom business as an operator. Landlines were the only connection and I was always happy to help make those connections. Great memories!
as a teen in the 50s we had a wall phone in a hallway, where my sister or I would be sitting on the floor, feet up on the opposite wall talking way too long, according to my Dad. He would often walk by while waiting for a business call and hang up on us. We never realised it til we were waiting for a response in the conversation. I still have a land line and prefer it to my cell phone. Love the owl, he or she is gorgeous, looks very majestic.
I just checked out your store. Amazing. The owl phone is really cool. I had a princess phone when I was 11. I honestly thought I was a princess. It's taken many years to figure out I am not! Thanks for the memories. Love, Princess Leith.
I love the little onesie you found. It’s so true - all we need is leave. Speaking of love - that owl phone!!!I Remember the Sports Illustrated tennis shoe phone? Or the Mickey Mouse phone and the fat valentine phone??? So fun. I was a teenager in the 70’s and talking on the phone was just the best!!! I remember (kinda fondly) I was talking to my boyfriend on the phone, which had a coil cord that was at least 10 feet long, and he said something funny. I had just taken a drink of my root beer and I laughed so hard, it came out of my nose!!!
Hi Laura. Simply love the vintage owl phone.. Its unique..🦉🦉 my Mom loved owls & collected them, so I grew up with them all around. Im still in my childhood row home in Philly, 4 generations have lived here now.. We still have a land line, YES, with the SAME ORIGINAL PHONE #...!!! its unheard of.. I just cant part with my old phone #.. I remember party lines too, and, I was thrilled to get my own princess phone at age 16, way back in early '70's.. It was the BEST. Ok, please add my name to the drawing. Would love to own the owl phone, in memory of my dear Mom.. TY...hugs & luv..🆒♏🪐☮✝🔮✨🌙🛍💖
I love this owl phone!!! I have worked for the telephone company for 38 years!! I used to be a operator “0” and I called all over the world in the 80’s!!! And I loved it!!
I still have a landline and this would be perfect sitting in my shop/home.. I still work for the telephone co but I also have a vintage shop which I need help organizing..
I don’t know if everyone knows this but owls bring clarity into your life!!! So maybe he / she could help me !!
I love your channel and watch it religiously Laura!!! Xoxo
🦉WHOO-izzit?! Lol 😂 Luv it! My grandfather had an antique "candlestick phone" (do a search!) in his bedroom - and it worked. I was mesmerized!
I live near the first shop. My son, who is 5 loves going into thrift stores, he always asks if we can stop at one. I love it. The boat area is called Shoreline Village. I used to teach art workshops at The Hang Out.
Hi Laura, I love watching your RUclips videos. I live in South Australia in a little town called Strathalbyn that has a Main Street full of cafes and antique shops. I was born in 1966 and spend my days thrifting to bring in some of the things from my child hood, mostly 70’s and 80’s. As a child we did not have a phone in our home, but the most memorable phone I have ever owned was a Garfield phone that my husband and I purchased in the late 80’s. I would love to be the custodian of this amazing owl phone and pass it on to my son (16) who loves to thrift and runs his own market stall called TJ’s old school goodies. Keep the content going as l love Sundays when I can sit down and watch your videos with a cup of coffee. Take care and thank you for the joy you bring. Kazzie
I love that owl phone so much. It's crazy how I can remember home phone numbers of childhood friends, but if you ask me their cell number, I have no clue. I just don't memorize numbers anymore! haha. I will never forget the turmoil of being a teen in the mid-90s and having dial-up internet... and having angst when someone got a phone call when I was online (or when someone wanted to go online while I was using the phone).
Look at Laura's solidarity w/females in business! Skater here too, Laura! You give me shiny hair envy. Gorgeous!
I just love your owl phone! I grew up in the 60’s and can remember having a “party line”. One ring was our home and two rings was the other party. If you picked up the other party’s ring you could listen in 😊 I have always loved owls and when I got married we lived on Owl Bridge Road for 40 years! We would hear owls almost every evening. And we lived right next to a bridge along our creek. My husband passed away but those are precious memories. Thank you so much for your you tube channel. I look so forward to following you on your treasure hunts. Your new home is truly beautiful!
Love owls. What a cool phone! All I remember about landlines is stretching that cord as far as possible to get some privacy.
I not only had a rotary phone but I was on a PARTY LINE!! Ya had to know which ring was yours and if someone got a call at 3 A.M. EVERYONE woke up!! Right now I have my grandmother's red emergency wall hanging phone as a decoration. And I know that owl phone would be a perfect addition to the same wall. Thank you and God bless
I LOVE the owl phone!!!! OH MY!!! I have to say....my first phone I had was a bright orange slim line wall phone with a super long coiled cord that could reach sooo far!! It hung in my kitchen and matched my amazing orange Tupperware canisters!!LOL. Every time I see one on a flippers show...I get all excited!! Love watching all your videos!! God Bless
Whooooo wouldn't love this owl phone?? It truly does bring back memories. It takes me back to the bright red pair of lips phone my sister and I shared in our bedroom. Does anyone else remember the busy signal, long before the call waiting feature was introduced? What a great video Laura, you have such a great eye for products and film.
I had that lips phone and definitely remember the busy signal. When call-waiting came along the World shifted!!😆
WOW thats really neat an owl phone I've never seen one and I have a crazy owl obsession. One of my favorite memories of having a landlines was having a clueless phone. You were definitely one of the cool kids with that baby. It had a pull out ear piece and you could change your voice 4 diffrent ways and push a few buttons and cher would as as if or whatever lol
I remember the Slogan "Give a Hoot Don't Pollute" in my California days as a child growing up. The owl phone is a HOOT!!!!! Screams 70;s and reminded me of my mama.. She still to this day at 76 has a lot of her 70's owls.. Love your channel and your shopping trips.. The owl would be an amazing addition to my 70's themed room.. Fingers crossed , hoping to win.. :)
I even remember what we called our party line. You could hear everybody's ring and knew when they were getting a phone call. And to top that off, you could listen in on their conversation! You called someone by turning a crank on the side of the phone. Phone numbers were recognized by how many long rings and short rings were made. For instance our number was two short rings and a long ring. That owl would be surprised and pretty proud of the push bottom's he has.:)
Great owl phone!! Wow! I remember having a long cord on our kitchen phone and sitting on the basement stairs with the door closed for privacy. 😊
As a child we had a super heavy epic metal phone from AT&T it was yellow and must have weighed over ten pounds (metal with plastic)-and we kept it well into the early 2000's- we probably got rid of it in late 2002 and not because it wasn't working-it was still in perfect working condition but whenever we had to make phone calls we had problems when automated customer service became the norm- you had to press 5 for this department or press 8 for this other department and we couldn't do it because our big yellow phone had that rotary wheel-so we had to stop using it. Sadly my mom got rid of without my knowledge about ten years ago. It was great because you could do a really dramatic hang up on someone when you were angry-love your owl its a hoot!! We love our landline-we have kept ours long after everyone else got rid of theirs-so I am over joyed they are coming back. Love your owl phone it would go great with our gothic boho decor-yes you heard it right boho gothic decor- it is a thing. We always enjoy your videos and were so pleasantly surprised when you were so supportive of our vintage selling endeavors. Thank you for your advice and kind words and we are so glad you found the home of your dreams and that you are creating wonderful new memories. Stay safe and enjoy your thrifting adventures. P.S. Love watching your boys Lorenzo and Jean-Pierre.
Absolutely love the owl phone! Was shocked when you revealed it as a PHONE! wow! Good find!
That owl is a pretty sweet phone. Growing up from 12-17 I had my own phone line. I'm 36 now & I wish I would've kept my old phones. I remember falling asleep talking on the phone with my bestie Ashley. First I had a boring old white phone. Then my Grandma Sweet Pea bought me some really cool phones. They did craft shows year round & she'd find some awesome phones. She got me a clear phone, a sassy Barbie phone, & Garfield phone. Then as gag gifts for Christmas I'd get weird ones. I got a banana shaped phone & one shaped like lips. Then my Mom bought me the Sabrina the Teenage Witch phone. Salem would say things when people called. That was by far my favorite phone. I also had my own answering machine. My Mom had given me her old one. I still remember getting prank calls from boys.
I love that owl phone and think it's one of the coolest things I've seen. I still have a landline and pay dearly to keep it. I remember rotary phones and playing jokes on people - like dialing random numbers and asking "Is your refrigerator running? The answer would be Yes, and we'd say, "better go catch it then". Silly pranks, thank goodness that was before caller ID
My sister started to work at a little country store. I called one day & asked if they had Prince Albert in a can (it was tobacco, for the younger generation). She said hold on & I'll check. I was about to burst before she got back to the phone. She came back & said, yes we do! I said, then let him out before he suffocates! That night at the dinner table I asked if she had Prince Albert in the can? She wanted to murder me 😁.
@@rhondaborders3452 That was a good one and made me laugh out loud.
I love the owl phone. It is so unique. Great video as usual. My favorite phone was my sky blue phone that matched all of the blue bedroom decor I had a 10 gallon aquarium with fish like neon tetra and black mollies and blue rocks. My mom made the curtains and bedspread for my waterbed and bought unpainted bare wood desk and dresser and painted them blue and white. And my dad still has a phone from the 80s that is wood and looks old fashion and hangs on the wall dial phone. Thanks for sharing. My dream is to open a vintage shop. For now I’ll live vicariously through you and my thrifting channels. You have the most beautiful blue eyes too! Have a wonderful weekend!❣️❣️❣️
Omg!The owl phone brings back so many memories! My mothers bestfriendhad one....I had the clear phone! I miss those days! That's probably why I'm so into thifting..cause it brings back my great childhood 😭goodtimes... oh to be young again! 😆 🤣thank you for the videos! I get my goodwill fix when I don't feel like going out..lol
I used to live in Southern California. First Thursdays of every month they would have all the galleries and shops open later in the evening in Laguna Beach. Many local shops would have live music and wine and appetizers....it was so fun to walk around. I think they still do it but you know, a lot has changed since the pandemic. Check out first Thursdays in Laguna Beach next time you visit Southern California.
You are such a hoot to watch at times nothing never boaring. The owl phone is very unique. My mom had a land line phone that looked like transiter radio. You would lift the handle to carry the radio around and it was the handle for the phone with a dial numbers. Was so cool. Take Care your home looks amazing.
Hi Laura. We still have a landlines. When l lived at home l had a pink princess phone in my bedroom, it was sooo cute. This owl phone is really cool. My hubby & l are fixing to celebrate our 50th Anniversary, he's a sweetie.
Always enjoy your videos. Luv from Texas.😁🎶🐰🐥🙋♀️💝
Hi Laura, what a show! I once had an orange phone. It was pretty cool. I also had a very vintage wall phone. But this owl phone takes the cake. You always have so much fun in what you do. Thankyou for sharing yourself and adventures.
Wow is that owl phone so kool, I remember when we got our first landline in our home in the early 70s. All my friends already had theres. I remember being at my friends house and her phone rang, and her mother said Brenda telephone...I was indeed shook, it was my sister telling me our phone was in...I ran all the way home at 10 yrs old, and started writing my friends phone #s down memorizing them...but I just started collecting owl, and would totally love to have, thanks for taking me back to remember such a great time in my life.
Whoot still has a land line? 🙋🏻♀️ Me! Me! That’s why I want the owl phone! I’m an 80s kid who still remembers not being able to go far away with our phone because of that darn chord so my parents would hear all my conversations 😄. Good times!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the owl phone!! I Love owls and vintage. Favorite memory is sitting at my Grandmothers' antique telephone table pretending to take calls and messages lol! I'm fortunate to have that very same telephone table and would absolutely be forever grateful to win this vintage owl telephone!!
I still have my landline. That owl is the coolest thing I have seen on awhile. You fine all kinds of great stuff. I've not been able to go out in awhile so I watch you.😊👍
Love that owl phone. So many cool phones back in the day. Always fun watching your adventures, you find some amazing items.
With three teenage girls in our home while growing up, the cord (the curly thingy) from the only phone we had on the kitchen wall, was so stretched out that it barely curled. We each would stretch it to its max trying to get as far away from our parents so they couldn't hear our convos with our friends. .🤣🤣 BTW it was a PINK phone in our green and pink kitchen. LOL
The owl phone was such a great find, you always see the neatest treasures 😁🌻🥰
You are just such a Rennaisance person with all your interests, I admire that so much! I love watching your videos! Thanks for bringing us along!
Wow I would truly love ❤️ and treasure the Owl phone!! I love all birds. I'm a 63 year old mom in British Columbia, Canada. Love your you tube channel and have turned on my sister's and friends to it. During a car outing with my daughter back in the early 1990's I stopped to make a telephone booth call and left my teenage girl in the car out front. I was on the phone for about 20 minutes while she sat there listening to her Walkman, when she got curious and asked me " how long does that quarter last??" 😆 🤣
The owl phone is awesome! One year (early 80s) I gave my dad a banana phone for his birthday. He kept it on his desk at home and sometimes would take work calls on it and it was hilarious. (He was a doctor.) The owl is worth getting a landline for again!
Love the owl! The coolest phone I ever had was in England and as I am 70 next week, it was a while ago. It was a rotary phone and BRIGHT red, like letter box, phone box, or London bus red! Still use a land line lots, but a cordless one.
I grew up in the 50s on a small costal NC island. We had party lines. Each person on the line had a special ring that was their own. There were a lot of nosy neighbors that would listen in on other’s calls.
That owl phone is something else. With as many years as I’ve been estate sale shopping, thrifting and going to yard sales I’ve never seen one either.
I still have a landline and love it. That owl is next level for a really different phone. I have a reallly cool phone that looks like 50’s diner and when it rings, it lights up and plays Bill Haley’s Rock Around The Clock!
When I was young, we had a black rotary phone. Then a harvest gold colored wall mount phone. Also had a princess phone at one time. I also remember party lines. I'd love to own the owl phone. It's very cool! I love to watch your videos.
Wow that phone .I had a pink wall hanging 📱 phone.But grew up seeing a lot.Even use the phone booth,you know I'm older. You found great treasures. Thank you for sharing ❤
OOOOH I LOVE THE OWL PHONE!!!! We had the popular Harvest Gold rotary dial wall phone in the kitchen in the 70's ! My daughter had a CLEAR SEE THROUGH PHONE, that her brother bought for her 16th Birthday!!! She said it was the best gift ever!!! Lol
Hi I found your channel a couple of months ago a I absolutely love every thing you guys do I'm 13 years old and I collect all kinds off things I love the phone I have never seen one before keep the videos coming
Owls of all kinds are cool. What a conversation piece. One wonders how long you could talk using this large phone, but I am willing to try. Thanks for the fun find. Sweet.
I love the first shop so much😍 I love the packed shelves and all the kitsch😃
I would really like my mom to have the cool Owl Phone. She still has same land line for over 60 years. Great Work Rrip and awesome vintage finds👍👍☺🌼
Hello Laura, first of all I love your channel..I am also drawn to different and unique items. I have to tell you about my granddaughter I brought home a vintage phone that you have to dial for my office. My granddaughter walked in and said Abuela what is this I told it was a land phone from when I was young..she looked at me with such a face and picked up the handle and looked at the dial on the the phone and said how do you use this..so her mother and I showed her..she was laughing so much that it brought us to an uncontrollable laugh..I will remember that forever. I could only imagine if I won the owl phone and showed her what she would think..Thanks for sharing all your great adventures..
Hi Laura love owls. They symbolize freedom and the power of survival. Love your videos gal keep on thrifting and selling great job thanks for sharing hour life with me. I’m a thrifter for 35 years learning a lot from you I need to sell and not hoard so many finds I love lol
Hello Laura and I am a 60's kid. My memory of a Kitty-cat Eyes movement!
I love watching your interesting video's, and really like your traveling Beautiful Adventures trips🤗🤗🤗
That owl is absolutely cool. I remember we had a phone in boarding school where you had no buttons but a lever to turn and then the switchboard will do the call for you.
Whooooo Whooooo wants the Owl phone more than me NO ONE. FYI I still have and use my land line. My two girls grew up in the 80s and just would not have it when I suggested getting rid of it even after they were grown adults. Love your show and the new home make over. keep up the good work.
The owl phone is so awesome! I have never seen anything like it. When I was a teenager I had an aqua rotary dial desk phone. Back then you didn't own the phone, you had to rent it from AT&T. I'm telling my age!
Hi Laura love a land line phone, growing up there was only one phone for a family of six. We stretched that coil phone line for miles around our apartment for some privacy so no one could eavesdrop on our conversation. I remember our phone number began with two letters instead of an all digit phone number. Ours was Evergreen 5 for EV5.... It was so cool. I remember the operator would call & ask if you would accept charges from one of my brothers who were stationed in other states or countries. Those were precious times. Great memories. Love your channel & your enthusiasm with each place & find. My daughter & I plan to visit the Oregon coast one day. It has everything beaches, forest, mountains & giant rocks protruding out of the ocean. TFS your space with us. 😘
Growing up my favorites A pink rotary Princess phone in my parents bedroom., The yellow rotary wall phone on the kitchen wall, The black rotary phone with the extra long curley cord that stretched across the hallway into my bedroom! When we sold our parents house the landline was still operating. As an "adult" in my own home the combination touch tone phone with AM/FM radio. I still have a land line in my home of 45 years. Land lines operate even when the electrical power goes out. The owl telephone is a fabulous fine.
I grew up in Orange County. I retired inland now to high desert area. If ever enough time go to the Circle of Orange in Orange city. Tons of antique shows, high end to malls with stalls. There is a shop called Woodys has Haley Wakefield furniture orgianlly made in Canada and all mid centurty Then a store on that side of street called Muffs, has lots of vintage hardware, reclaimed windows and everything you can think of. I think in one parking lot they still do a vender type mall on weekends but memory has me thinking maybe they built something there. The movie That Thing You Do was filmed there. The drugstore we went to often with our kids.They didnt have to change anything for the movie. Watsons. Always looked like that. The kids meal came in a vintage carboard car. Oh realized commenting late again. I just found your channel so all your videos popping on feed!
hoo hoo's there!! Love love the owl phone and yes I still have a land line, you know just in case, of a real emergency and the grid is down. Nice video of Cal shops and pier.
I do love the owl phone. I remember having one of phones that would light up when someone called and it was see through. So you could see the fun colored wires. Great video.
Ahoy Laura, Amazing Owl Phone. I use to have clear phone that would light up rainbow 🌈 colours when it rang back in the 80’s.
We still have a land line.
Love your channel. Thanks for vintage inspiration. 🦋
Aww Laura I love the owl phone and I still have a land line because I live so far out in the country. My favorite landline phone was a Corvette and I gave it to my grandson a few years back. I don’t know if he will ever have a landline but it still makes a nice piece of eye candy for him. He is a race car mechanic and loves cars and owns a corvette so what kind of grandma would I be if I didn’t give him one of my favorite possessions. I go so far back I remember having party lines. 🤣
Yahoo! Love it! Go owls !
My favorite phone from the 90's is when I got a Mickey Mouse phone for my birthday!
What am amazing adventure you had!
My “phone” moment is the phone that I have that belonged to my grandfather. It is one of the few items that I have of his. He and his siblings arrived on Ellis Island in the early 1900’s. It’s an old black late 1920s phone that I keep on the nightstand, to remind me of my family heritage.
I miss toying with the coils in the phone cord while talking. I love that owl phone, and Goods on Orange looked like such a fun shop.
I LOVE that groovy owl phone! I grew up with rotary phones and was so thrilled when I got my own aqua Princess phone. Truth be told, my mother was tired of me stretching out the family wall phone cord. What people may not be aware of is land line phone are handy in severe weather events. Living on the east coast, there were times cell service was affected by hurricanes but not the landline phones. In my current house I have a landline outlet and phone number but no landline phone. I have been looking for one.🤞🏼
I need that owl landline phone! My favorite memory of landlines is how long the twisty cord was and we would take it all the way into the other room so you could have a little privacy.
I love my landline! I was the very first person to reach my insurance company to report a tree had fallen through my roof into my home in 2004. Hurricane Charley tied up everyone's cell service so no one could get through to them. I owl is really cool. I'd love to use it!
Wow! You were in my city! I love going to goods on orange! Found vintage Viking there. Glad you had fun in town!😁

Tawit Ta Woo. Such a cool phone. We had a BT (British Telecom) Trim Phone when I was a kid in the 70s. I loved it. We still have a landline. I know, not many people do these days. Hey ho. I’m all for the retro life🤣 great look around Long Beach. We were there in 2018 unfortunately I missed those vintage shops😩 We’ll be back to the US soon I hope 🤞🏽
