    I'm thinking the low dining table most likely had casters originally which would have made it quite a lot higher. I'm old, born in 1945 in England but Canadian for over 50 years, and remember seeing that kind of style when I was little and older adults had them in their homes. Casters from that era did heighten the pieces they were attached to, they are very different from modern ball casters. They were little wheels rotating on mini axles attached to a frame that was then attached to the furniture, and the height of the furniture was adjusted to allow for them.
    You have a fantastic haul, I want all of it! 😄 Especially that single bar stool, perfect for my art table, but I'm way up in the great white North, boohoo. 🤓

    Cots or cribs are usually for 4 months onward.

    I know that shelving units are a dime a dozen but that old trunk with the recessed rectangles or rectangular paneling (however you'd like to describe it) with all the interesting details if stood it up on one of its short ends, so the length of it was vertical, you could put shelving, or maybe make doors, or both... And then you could add legs if you'd like, I would I've been on a leg kick lately. I feel using legs, of any size really, to elevate a piece and get it up off the floor, even just an inch even, helps to finish a piece and make it look more custom and high end. I bought a white textured wallpaper from home depot and Im going to use on the back of a shelving unit and/or cabinet and then I'll paint it to match the rest of the piece, and I think that would. Look great in this as well

    I wouldn’t raise the dining room table . One because the chairs will be too low, I am 5’2” and I have problem with tables being too high. So I would leave it be. Great bargains for the price paid. Will be watching to see what you do with them. I have a couple of tables in my storage I want to redo but I need simple. 😂 lol

    for the pine heart furniture, try a "shou sugi ban" finish. RUclips has good video on doing the finish on pine wood. Something fun and different than the standard stained pine finish.

    Awesome haul! Now I know where that one desk came from - the one where you used the black wood grain peel-and-stick vinyl. I’m exhausted just from watching this video! 😂

    I'm thinking you could replace the the bassinet bed with a large metal tub in the frame and use outside for a drink and ice holder ...or a planter?
    Remove all the material and bedding of course..I had a wicker bassinet and used it to hold ferns! I received lots of compliments on it too ..

    There is a product called Liquid Sand/Sander. Works really well on laminate to give it some tooth for paint...

    Gosh I wish we could find things like this here in South Africa. Just not done here. People would sell furniture like this for ridiculously high prices.

    What you called a "Sewing Cabinet looks like a Dough Box, take a long sniff of it and if it smells like yeast, then that's what it is. As for the "short" dining table & chairs, perhaps for Children? In some more wealthy homes around the turn of the century, the small children usually ate in the "nursery" and older children ate in the Kitchen area, until they were of a "socially acceptable" age. So perhaps redo it with children in mind.

    If the basinet is sturdy, there are many young people with new babies that cannot afford a crib initially.

    I can't wait to see how all this turns out!! Beautiful!! I'm sure just like all your other projects! You've got your hands full for a good minute... Hee Hee! Looks like my pile is stuff...can't seem to catch up though cuz I'm always bringing/buying more stuff from garage sales! 😂 Oh! BTW...I think the chest would be BEAUTIFUL if you redo a lid ..cover it ..and if it's not too old just bring out the wood on the box it self or just stain it to bring out the details! Use at the foot of your bed!!😉
