My mother had that exact coat when I was 6. I remember she looked so stylish in it at a Christmas gathering. After getting home, she realized she’d shut the belt in the door and the pavement chewed up the end. She cried. Forty two years later and I hadn’t remembered that until you got the coat. Thanks for helping me recover a memory of my gorgeous, stylish MCM mama!
Awww how sweet! Not that she cried but the sweet memory ❤️❤️❤️ That’s the thing I love most about vintage. The memories ☺️❤️ Thank you for sharing this!
That’s the saddest story I’ve ever hear :(
All that to say, “I feel your mamas pain”. 💔💔💔
I didn’t read all the comments, so apologies if I’m repeating someone. There are guidelines for lamps and shades. The shade should be twice as wide as the lamp base, and one third of the total height of the lamp. It’s ok to have 1/2 to 1 inch of neck showing, but none of the socket should be seen below the shade.
Harps can be found in many sizes/heights including adjustable height harps. They can be easily changed out for a better fit. But as in all things design: Trust your gut. You know if you like it or if it feels “off” to you. And that’s the most important thing. I’ve been thrifting my entire life. You are so fun to watch! Thank you for the recent tutorial on shining up old brass with salt and sliced lemons. I’d heard of that before, but had never tried it. Genius!! It really worked! Thanks for many hours of fun perusing...I’m just north of you in the Seattle area.
@Sandra...hi neighbor! I live in Des Moines WA. 2 blocks up from the Marina....love this area, so pretty and clean!
@@shereecontreras2846 hi! Nice to meet you. So fun to see who follows who on RUclips. You must be a thrifter?
And hello from east in Carnation!
Hi 🙋♂️ Sandra, your comments so good where are you from?
I LOVE the floral pitcher it’s gorgeous!
The quality and variety of items you find in the Pacific Northwest never ceases to amaze me. I am always in awe! 💙
Me too
Same, absolutely nothing like that around me in northern Ontario
Amen! The Goodwill stores around me look like the WORST yardsale I’ve ever seen Laura go to!!
I agree, our local gw is hit and miss. Never have I found anything comparable to the quality, Laura finds. Makes me want to drive to Washington, to thrift.
@@bettycaudill2763
Girls road trip!!!🤣
You could put battery operated candles in them instead
I am a maximalist and my husband is a minimalist….good thing he loves me!!
😆 yay for love!
I’m so excited to see future videos of you decorating your new home!
Thank you! I can’t even wait to put our touches on that home ☺️ I have pieces I’ve saved for years that will finally have the perfect space now 🙌
Been looking out for ur beautiful high spirited smile all week... lovely finds
When we bought our house my husband said don't clutter everything, it's taken over 20 years he's given up trying to declutter. Maximalist all the way. Oh and I love all my wood bits and pottery too.
Hi 🙋♂️ Laura, your comments so good where are you from?
The green and white Mexican bowl is called “Talavera “ pottery. I have been collecting hanging talavera sun faces for years. I hang them on my garden fence. In the cold snowy Winters, they provide much needed color. Great find!
Great idea! I always like the sun pottery images at the end of the Sunday Morning show.
I think that big brass bowl would look cool with sand in it; to put a bunch of incense sticks in it. Beautiful, plus it makes your home smell fabulous. Nag champa is my favorite incense.
The wooden vases would look fab with dried grasses in them, and no need to worry about water!
I feel the rule of thumb on lamp shades on a lamp is, if it "feels right", it's right.
The wooden candle holder/vases would make great lamp bases.
Oh not not lamp bases ☺️
My thought exactly.
Hi 🙋♂️ Maureen, your comments so good where are you from?
Having a bad day BUT watching you calms my soul.
Sorry to hear Heidi, hope things can get better. 😘
I really liked the neutral display better than the pink...it was much more calming & I like color so go figure 😊
I LOVE those blue Dansk Mesa pattern - on the hunt now......
I've seen them on Etsy!
Also, I love that you're not too much into "branded" items... As long as it is aesthetically pleasing and works...
By far, my favorite RUclipsr!! 😊
💙
Laura is the best. I aspire to be half as sweet, kind and joyful.
The trick to using those wooden candlesticks without ruining them with dripping wax is using a bobeche (the glass circles that sit at the base of the candle.)
Your Goodwill Stores are so much nicer than the ones near me. Mine are dirty and unorganized.
I find shopping at goodwill in more affluent neighborhoods find you better buys.
@@juneramirez8580 the Goodwill in the "rich" area still isn't as nice as the ones Laura goes to.
Love your lamp/shade combo: go with what you find aesthetically appealing! If it looks off, fall back on these ¨rules of thumb¨: shade is about 2/3 the height of the base; like a slip under a dress, you never want your harp to show.
Yayay!! Love these videos and the inspiration they bring!!
🙌🖤
Hi 🙋♂️ Brina, your comments so good where are you from?
Hi Laura! You have such a gift for thrifting and styling your finds. I can’t think of anything you’ve thrifted that I wouldn’t put in my home!
You have the best Goodwills & the best luck Laura! Great haul!
Laura what a joy it was watching this on a rainy dark Monday morning. Amazed at the things you find and the prices at your goodwills. Unbelievable.
Dried flowers would look fantastic in the wooden vases.
I just love the way you stage your finds...you bring out all the yummy in everything 🖤
Thanks Michelle! I’m glad you like it. 😘
@@leftcoastrevivals 😍
Each piece displayed is unique and work so well together. I applaud you for having the ability to showcase your items so well.
Oh Laura, you have the rest of us thrift shoppers not in Washington filled with envy. Your Good Wills are full of fantastic finds.🙂
I love the brown lamp setting much better than the pink flowers all the wood pieces and the lamp made you want to stop and look at each piece
You find such pretty stuff.
About your colorful decor question... I personally love color. I have a white sofa, brown leather Eames chair & ottoman, 2 aqua blue slipper chairs and a bright to the floor magenta table cloth on a 30 inch tall circle table my Dad made. In the 90s, skirted tables between chairs was a thing. I have my bright magenta table next to my sofa. My sofa has colorful pillows made from old rugs. The key to my colorful boho living room is the nuetral walls, rug & sofa with 3 pink things... table clothe, sofa pillow, and a lamp base across the room on another end table. Think triangle. I love bright color. I have 2 large green plants in there too. I change table clothes with the season. In Fall I'll pull out the orange clothe & move pink lamp to guest bdrm & use my brass lamp. I've got red for Christmas, soft green for Spring. I had my table clothes made at Calico Corners with fancy thick upholstery fabric & weighted welting, cording at the bottom. They were expensive but I keep using them year after year & different colors makes me happy. My artwork in that room is bright. My son, my cousin, my bestie are all artists and all four walls have original oil paintings in various sizes... abstract, landscape and figures. If you like colorful, you'd dig my living room.
Annette, I dig everything you just said!
I loved the beautiful jug and the green bowl! I have to tell you that now when I go to my Goodwill, I'm saying ooh Laura would like that! And I'm starting to like mid century objects and that's not me at all! You just have such good taste with what you pick, that I think wow! that's beautiful. A little scary...ha!
Same thing's happening with me too!
Never to be disappointed with Laura's videos... you feel part of everything ...🥰🥰🥰🥰
Happy dance, Laura posted.
💃💃😘
Hello lovely lady Laura! I love your eye make up, it really compliments your blue eyes. I appreciate it that you don't only sell your arts but helping us how to display it. Love everything and tips from time to time. 5👍👍👍👍👍 for your choises and artistry. 5 being the highest. More, more👏👏👏👏👏
Those carved wood vases are probably my favorite of your finds. Next, the green hand-painted Mexican bowl 💚
You've really inspired me to start reselling soon. I love thrifting and actually go to the Battle Ground and Salmon Creek Goodwill's often, that's where I find my favorite things. I'll have to check out that first store tomorrow.
I just love your style and the things you buy! You also do such a great job in presenting them. Thrifting is the best way to achieve a wonderful look. When I bought my house in 2019 I went to tons of thrift stores to furnish and my house is so bohemian as a result. Thanks for having your channel!!! PS: you forgot to model your 70's coat!
What great finds!!!! Love it all. The collection of mixed brass vases were my favorite!
I'm a maximalist who tends to go for the nuetrals. I find a lot of my 'stuff' in nature, such as cool rocks and driftwood. I had a friend who used to go hunting with me along the Mississippi shoreline for cool stuff. He passed away, but he left me a gift that I found on the ground believe it or not. I knew it was from him. I looked down at what looked to be a knot that came out of a board and I reached down to pick it up for some reason and when it came out of the ground it was a feather! Not created by man but by nature and it was the coolest thing I've ever found and I knew it was meant for me to find. I believe that with all my heart. I will never let it go. It's absolutely amazing.
I think the Lampshade is Perfect.
I'm a pop person, and I like to mix and match patterns and textures, too!
Hi, Laura! Jocelyn, from the Crazy Lamp Lady channel might be able to help you identify your lamp. She knows lamps like you know hats! She has mentioned you in her videos from time to time.
Fun shopping with you watching you from Montana Susan
Love the neutral look, did not care for the pink flowers at all!
The way I gasped when I saw that lamp!!!
You can Do It!!!! You are doing great. When I lived in Japan I took up a ton of classes. My fav was making washi paper eggs and kimono dressing. Just jump in to it and it will come.
I am happy you picked up the art glass piece. Would love to see you take a trip outside to your comfort zone to enlarge your product line, just remember……the rule is, only buy it , if it speaks to you! That’s my rule of working in the Wild 👍❤️👍❤️
I'm a more is less girl, but I have toned down as I have gotten older. Usually if I can't make up my mind on a couple of things , I just get both!!!
Definitely a color lover! My home in a mix of styles too.
Be pretty easy to make carved wood candle sticks into lamps.
Omg very excited to see how you decorate your new house. 💖❤💖❤💖❤💖❤💖❤💖❤
Love the pink one! So romantic!
I'm visiting, and in Vancouver for 2 days from California... will visit at least one.
Iron-clad 'rule of thumb' in regards to lampshades.....if you love how it looks, then it's the perfect fit! LOL
😂 I’ll take it!
I would make the large carved wooden candlesticks in to lamps!!!!
Good Idea!
I love watching your Portland Goodwill trips. I get excited everytime I see you enter a Goodwill that I have visited when I come to Portland from Texas each year. I spend so much money shipping my fines back to Texas period and I've learned so much about different items from your Channel
Hi Laura, I actually have the same Picasso inspired oxen. I did buy mine in New York City at the Metropolitan Museum of art gift shop! I bought him many years ago so your is a real treasure.
I love sharks actually. He looks like he is missing his tail fin though, maybe it’s another fish? You look great in the 70 s coats, I love that navy one you got last year, it’s a stunner on you. I think the carved wooden candle sticks would look great with dried flowers.
It's a Dolphin
Wether its a Dolphin or shark it doesnt have the tail and it just looks weird
@@patriciacunningham5383 you got that right, it’s like the person that made it never really saw a shark (or Dolphins) 😃😄😁😆
Just loving seeing the scores people find all over the country. This youtube community is incredible, all the entrepreneurial pickers out there. God bless America!
When I saw the coat I gasped! Gorgeous find!!
I LOVE THE CORK IDEA! 🤯
☀️🌧🌈 Give me ALL the colors in every shade!! Color gives me life 🦚🦜🌿🌻 & makes me happy. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
I L🍊ve C🍎l🍏r!! 🥰
You passed up on a Mexican (or perhaps Murano) glass bull in the first store. I think you would have loved him!
I like neutral colors with pops of color here and there
That lamp!!! Omg!
Those penguin ice buckets are like your Where's Waldo!
Thanks to Laura, I really want one of those now. You don't see them here in Australia. 😍🐧🐧🐧
I am a vintage seller as well. I have always enjoyed finding videos with others following the same path. I have my degree RASID ( Design and Architecture). I was in interior design for 15 years and landscape design for about 10. I have to tell you your a natural when it comes to design. You are spot on with the way you respect vintage sets and wood grain pieces. You have a beautiful old soul and I am so happy I have found your blog and you tube channel. Thank you for putting yourself out there. Keep up the good work.
As always you get the best finds.
Your displays were fabulous.
Thanks for taking us along.
The lamp shade is perfect it's sits exactly where it should sit. Everything you found is fabulous
Some wonderful pieces this morning Laura. You have a gift for thrifting. Thanks for sharing👍🏻❤️
Colours and maximalist for the win!
I just moved from Vancouver up to Olympia! I love your style and esthetic!
My sister has a vintage resale shop, and I've been getting into it, too.
I instantly subscribed to your channel after the 1st episode!
Love, love, love ypur wooden hand chair!!
I have a recycled plastic one that looks like stone!
Hi Laura,love the items you have brought ,I bet your so excited about your beautiful new home ,it’s like paradise much lv Ann uk xxxx
Thank you Ann! We are so very excited ☺️
Hi Laura, Thanks for sharing your amazing finds! Love watching your vlogs here in the UK! X
You have such an amazing eye for quality
Thanks for taking us along on your adventures
My father used to take me to The Myrtle Wood shop on the Oregon coast near Rockaway all the time as a child and every time I drive by it I consider going in. I never do, but I should. I sometimes work at a curated resale clothing boutique down there to help out a friend, so I am there often. I love this channel!! Thanks for being an inspiration to us lifelong pickers.
You would! I went to that one last year and it’s so impressive 😍
@@leftcoastrevivals I’ll stop in next time I’m out there. I so loved that shop and my father always let me buy one item every time we went. 💜💜💜
I would put a plant in that brass piece- the overflowing green leaves would be showed off by the brass!
Watching you has been such a pleasure. Thank you! I'm seeing all the things I sold at garage sales back in the 70's and 80's! Oh my...
I agree with you that the lampshade is just a tad too short. I would also enhance the finial with a pottery ball.
HI LAURA, GREAT HAUL, LOVED THE FIRST VIGNETTE, THEY ALL WERE PRETTY!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!🌺🌺
Hi laura, there was a lovely large coffee table book of Ireland in the vintage shop, id have loved it, and i live in Ireland!! Love your style and the natural way you are..
See you next time☘☘☘☘☘
Those brass goblets! ❤️ I will be looking for those when I thrift. Amazing!
Yay! So happy to see this video show up for me this morning. I really enjoy these videos and your style!!
Love the brass & black pieces esp the elephant
the picasso cow reminds me of the painting 'guernica'. the spanish civil war...
Love the two different looks on your credenza. Pink floweres were so unexpected, and unique!
I wish I could give you a link or something, but I'm pretty sure a little of the metal is actually supposed to be seen at eye level on your lamp, so I think that shade is the perfect size. You have such a good eye, but I think I most admire all your lamps. It's especially fun to see you styling things for us. Thanks!
I never heard of a goodwill superstore, cool! Great finds, Laura 😊
Also, I just hit up 5 thrifts in Tulsa if anyone is interested.
Borderline maximalist. I do pattern mix. My style is midcentury bohemian with a LOT of color, primarily mustard yellow, orange, and green.
Love your eye.
Love watching your Goodwill shopping, Laura. The wooden vases are stunning 😍💖
Miss watching The Recycled Life, but happy to be able to still watch you and Selena. Thank you 💐
Watching from Pembrokeshire, West Wales UK 🇬🇧🏴
Great finds. I love both ways you styled it. I so go with whatever makes you happy. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Loved, loved, this video. WOW! GREAT JOB! You scored! What a fun day!
I love that you said “rad”! Brings me back ...:)
Hi Lovely Laura. Hope the house sale is going well and looking forward to updates on the new place x
Thank you!! Closing on both next week ☺️👍
Those wooden candle holders would drill a hole and turn into lamps
Beautiful arrangement with the pop of pink colour! Bravo!
I could never do what you do! I have no style in clothes, home decor., well nothing.. came across your videos and really like your style in everything. Bless you and yours
Love all your finds! Thank you for sharing your thrifting adventures.🥰
