The internet needs more videos like this. Real people getting real stuff done.
Loved going on this hunt with you! So fun!
That was a fun dumpster dive and I didn’t even have to leave my house!!!! 😂Can’t wait for the re-dos!!! TY! ❤
Hahaha, right!?!
I didn’t see you grab the cane set 2 chairs and a table but I’m glad you did. Can taint to see what you do with the lamp. I have my mums and it’s a very dark stain which doesn’t suit our decor so I’m excited for that.
I would have hit the brakes so fast if I saw a blow mold Santa out on the curb. Great job, Katie!
The way Katie yelled out “Santa!” Like she just met a long lost friend. 😂
Love the “ those are going with us❣️”
I had no idea those were such a big thing!
Ours is next week in the US in my state me and my truck are ready❤
I’m shocked at the auction pricing for these
I Love doing these kinds of treasure hunts! How lucky you are that your hubby goes along to help!
This was an interesting cultural foray-thanks for taking us along for the ride. X
How well I remember the trash day runs when I was a kid! Not for renovations! It’s how we got clothes & some furniture! I still love the “thrill of the hunt!”
I'm amazed at how your neighbors clean up. In my neighborhood. They fill up their garage with junk and leave their nice car outside. I think it's fun watching you look for treasures
How exciting to be able to sort through peoples discard piles!
I wish they did that in our area! Looks like so much fun!
@KathrynShamanski
I agree with you 💯!!! I don’t know of anything like this here in the Ottawa, Ontario (Canada) either! Too bad, but maybe we could get it going?! What do you think? 🤔
You are lucky to have a husband that is such a good sport! Thanks for taking me a long :)
They had something like this where I used to live in Colorado. We always called it "Trash-pocalypse" 😂 It was so fun to drive around and find treasure! Thanks for letting me relive it!!
Canadians are so sweet!
Home boy was throwing it away but she wouldn’t take the hardware 😊
Here in the states these days are awesome. People throw brand new stuff away, or perfectly good stuff. You’d have a ball.
I love spring cleaning weekends-lots of stuff finds a new home. Can't wait to see what you do with everything.
OMG nothing is better than going through the trash to find treasures!!! loved this video!
Yay! Shopping with Katie! I’m excited to see what you do with these treasures.🌸
I love finding treasures on days like this.
It was fun to hear your thought process on what you took and what you left. Looking forward to the flips!
Wow so many good finds! I would die if I found a dresser like that by the curb! 🤩
I've been a dumpster-diver for as long as I can remember -- and now I've found someone who loves free stuff as much as I do!!
Katie actually knows how to upstyle her finds, so I'm heading out on "trash day" to pick up a few projects and follow along with her vids.
Proceeds from whatever I rehab and sell will go to our local animal shelter and possibly the Road Cat Sanctuary my husband and I operate (we feed, vaccinate and spay/neuter any homeless kittehs that wander up to the house).
One man's trash is another man's treasure.
Katie, with your skills I'm sure you probably could have even refinished "la toilette" into an elegant piece of furniture, lol. Big fan and subscriber of the show - keep up the good work!
The table made in Vietnam was nice! You had some great finds! As they say, "One man's trash is another man's treasure!"
I think it's great that you save so much from the landfill! And the free part is just gravy.
i love bulk pickup days and finding stuff on the side of the road. Hubby not so much so you are lucky to have an extra hand/company to go along with you.
Garbage picking! My favorite. Thanks for taking us.
I love bulk trash 🗑️ pick days. I call it shopping at "the curb store"! 😅
Love the treasure hunt! Hubby is a great sport!
I really enjoyed going along with you! Can’t wait to see your results.
I loved it when you said, “puppy incident.”
You and your hubby make a great salvage team!! Perhaps y'all need your own tv show :-) Cheers from stinking hot FL
I actually enjoyed this episode. It was interesting to see the treasures that you were able to save from the landfill.
You created a whole new style…..Midcentury Biedermeier…….and I just love it.
Thank you for taking us along. Enjoyed this insight into the beginning of your projects.
Amazing the amount of pieces of furniture just waiting to be up-cycled, transformed. Brilliant finds..
What a great haul! Can't wait to see how they all turn out.
That Santa and snowman!!! Best Find Ever!!!
Hi Katie and Mr Selvage, such fun to ride along and see what you found. I can't wait to see what you do with your finds. I know they will be really perfect when you are done🙏Gale x
So happy every time you start chatting and sharing a project. You are just a full on joy to hang with. ❤😊
Great haul!! I'm so jealous that your area has an organized spring cleaning, that is such an awesome concept. Can't wait to see what you do with all your amazing finds! 🙌
I absolutely loved this video. FREE stuff is the best stuff!
Your such an amazing person 😅
I was on the edge of my seat in excitement! 😂
I was watching like as though I was there with you in the middle of all the fun. Thank you for sharing all your great findings, I’ve enjoyed every minute of it!
I'm living vicariously thru you on this adventure lol. Coffee table is amazing. Thank you
If the sewing machine doesn't work, those cabinets are great for hiding printers in home offices (opening the top to print, closing it when done). You'll be making over furniture for a good while after such a successful rescue mission!
Loved hearing your thought process of choosing pieces and I’m enjoying 4 weeks of spring cleanup in my town…so far two midcentury dressers, and a solid maple table! ❤
Amazing!!!
Thanks for taking me along
I love that desk. This was a fun ride along. 😁
I'm glad you will prevent those pieces from going to dump
You always give me so much inspiration! Keep going Katie😊
Grabbed todays mail just before having a snack and watching this video....there was a flyer from our county's recycle service, announcing they're switching their pickups to ONCE per month for the whole area, so 'make sure to save your stuff and put everything on the curb the weekend before!!' That tickled me SO much, as the once-cheap and fabulous little thrift store from which I scoured countless treasures in the past is neither cheap nor fabulous now---one of many small businesses changed forever post-pandemic. :( So the Mail Flyer, coupled with your video which I immediately watched afterwards, is SERENDIPITY! You can bet I'll be grabbing gloves, sanitizer, etc., and cruising the area in our SUV!! Also equally tickled to see those Retro Santa and Snowman blow-mold yard decor you scored. Now all you need is one of those blow-mold candles, and you'll have the whole set!! LOL FUN video!!.
The scrapping guys will have a field day with all those Christmas trees
I love watching furniture flippers take a discarded piece of furniture and turn it into something gorgeous. You have a back for seeing the possibilities in something I could never envision. I am a woodworker and for year's if I see solid wood furniture on the side of the road, I will take it to repurpose. Believe it or not, during the pandemic I found some real treasures, like antiques out for bulk pickup. I restored those and sold them at an antiques fair we have in my town. We are very New England here and we love our antiques. The closest city to me is New Haven and they have bulk pick up once a month, so I was finding all kinds of things. I also repurpose metal for sculptures that I weld together from stands for machinery to spice racks.
You have inspired me and I learned so much from your tips. You would think after 50 years of working with wood I would know a thing or two and I do, but I love learning new techniques and your channel has given me that. Keep doing what you do!
Great finds and Free is always good! 🎉
Wow! I wish my area would do that kind of clean-up day so that I could find need stuff too! Lol! Always watching the side of the road for treasures!
I love scrapping too. Good finds!
What an exciting couple of days. I think you have the makings of a great song ‘A table with no legs’ probably country rather than rock. Have a great week. Lynda
I am enjoying the drive thru your countryside as much as I like to see what treasures you pick up. Greetings from north of Toronto. 💕
Kate - I just found your channel last week & it is so helpful for me. Also your hair in this vid looks GREAT!! Looking forward to viewing more of your vids. Very educational and inspiring to help me redo old furniture. Thanks a million!
Thanks, that was so much fun! I felt like I was treasure picking with you guys..
I can't wait to see what you do with all your finds!
Katie, I just discovered your videos and have been enjoying them very much. This has been one of the most interesting and informative. You are completely charming. God bless your sweet husband for helping you without complaint. I can’t wait to try out a project.
Omg the Santa and the snowman. Happy dance 😉
I binge watch you more than anything!
Katie, you could make anything look beautiful!!!
Nice weekend haul Katie. Good thing you have a nice big garage to store & work on it all. That's one thing I wish I did have.
Katie your calves are everything!!! 🙌🏽
Loved it all, also the country Tour, now have to wait to see them on they're best outcome 😊
So envious ! Getting to drive around and look at other peoples discards for free!!!! What a great way to spend a weekend! Can’t wait to see what you do with the finds
You have a lot more restraint than I do! I see so many additional items I would have grabbed (as long as they didn't have massive damage!) I thought I saw a vintage or antique wicker settee, the lily pad birdbath would have been great w/a "stone look" finish, the table that went w/the rattan chairs you got, the radio flyer, an antique wooden birdhouse shaped like a big house, the spherical bird feeder would have made a great planter covered with English ivy or some other vine...I guess I rummage for way more than just furniture!
First time watching you, that was so fun! The scenery was gorgeous! I can't believe how much stuff people throw to the curb, I can't wait to see what you do with all this.
This is awesome and inspired me to see if we have a similar setup here for bulky and construction trash. Alas, we do not, not for curbside, but I did learn that we have compost options and dedicated days to bring those items for recycle and disposal. How accessible they are to the general public, I don't know, but it's cool to know that exists. I encourage everyone to check your town municipal website for information! I just hope y'all's isn't full of dead links like mine is 😜
I miss these type of all city trash days. Now we have to call and schedule a large load trash day. 😢
Yes! Kitchen island with shelves! Wow! You guys put out a lot of trash. We are limited to how much we can put out. Can't wait to see what genius ideas you come up with for those items!
This is a specific once a year occasion for everyone to clean out their spaces. Definitely not allowed on a regular basis 😉❤️
@@salvagedbykscott Good to know. This quells my jealousy! LOL
I would have picked up those carts with the baskets in a hot minute, cleaned them up, possibly paint them, add more baskets and voila - extra storage !! Could use them on the patio for picnics, in the garage, kids toy storage or possibly in a craft or sewing room. I let out a sad sigh when you passed on them. 😢
Anyway, you scored some great pieces at a great price ! LOL. 😊 Looking forward to your re-dos. Go Katie 🎉🎉
Oh those Christmas decorations are a must have.
Katie! This was so much fun! Thank you for letting us tag along!
I always take off the screws that hold the legs together if possible on end tables or coffee tables to make room in my truck whenever I am dumpster diving or shopping for furniture to make room for any other things I might find. Found three bar stools this weekend in a dump.
Loved riding along. Love that kind of hunt!
Oh Man!!! I literally commented a few mins. before video was over but, always watch them entirely. "Mr. Salvaged" I LOVE it!!! Made me laugh & came back to comment again!!
It’s amazing what people throw away!!
This is a fun video to watch. I saw the blow mold Santa 🎅 watched as the van drove-by it and gasped . Thank goodness you stopped and picked it up. Good find😊.
Wow! Om so excited to see when you flip everything❤❤❤
Great haul! I’m impressed! Thanks for the ride along!
This brought back so many memories ! Back in the day I lived in an affluent area and big pick up day was so much fun. The things people tossed out amazed me.
My daughter would cringe if there was a pile because she knew I was pulling over and picking. Now she does it with her kids.
I’m having fun watching your videos, I love seeing how you take something old or beat up and turn it into a beautiful piece of furniture ❤
That was interesting fun, Katie. Thanks for taking us views along.
Based on the garbage furniture (?) you saw over and over again, i kept thinking about the furniture flippers of the future...what can they remake if today's furnishings are such terrible quality?
A lot of it can have its life extended but definitely not over and over again like the older stuff.
I would grab any wood pieces to use in my flips. You never know when you will need a new top to a dresser.
That chair @ 5.43 and little carved table at 8.43 !!! Don't you think it could've been super to updo? I love your videos and thank you so much for all your hard work Katie.
I left a lot behind but I know there were tons of other people out doing the same thing. More stuff got picked up than the garbage truck got to take. If I brought home everything I saw, I’d be living in my own personal landfill in no time 😂❤️
Lots of treasures for you to work your magic.
I really liked going shopping with you. Can't wait to see it all in your videos
I totally agree with the picks. It was nicely made - one didn't pick. You'll have another chance!
You picked up good peaces,can't wait too see the upgrades
That was lotsa fun. Watched the video at 1.5 so it made your search feel a bit 'frantic,' especially when others joined in the search. Hurry up...grab it! LOL
For now having been in your new place for a while, would you consider doing update video on your move? Meet your expectations? How the family has adjusted to new community, etc?
I thoroughly enjoyed watching.
Can't wait to see the pieces completed.
I just finished up the first makeover! I’m excited to share it here on the channel in a few weeks 😉❤️
Enjoyed the ride! I am looking forward to seeing the transformations. Always happy when I see a new video from you.
I’m so glad you had fun! It was a great weekend adventure.
That was fun. I’m looking forward to seeing what you do with those pieces. 👍
I love the chevron table and the mirror. Fun!
I was hoping you'd get that antique dresser and completely refurbish it, but I could see that would be quite a job, and I hate to see antiques painted. I think the mid-century dresser was a find and that beautiful coffee table with the inlaid wood top.
Now that was fun ! Can’t wait what you will be doing with it !!👍😎🐕🦺
That dresser that you didn't get could have been a nice vanity. All you had to do was cut out a hole for the sink either having it up being a vessel sink or whatever I like to have a solid surface undermount sink myself making more streamline. Then just have the fronts of the drawers nailed and glued on a 1/2-in piece of ply and then jigsaw it in a way that you could open it up in some way to allow for access to plumbing as well as having some storage inside.
I envy you your big item day. We can put big items out all year, with payment stickers, as long as we notify the trash removal folks. Finding treasures here becomes more of a lucky accident.
I love watching these types of videos. Great finds Katie. I can't wait to see the flips on these.✔
