You should put the three sifters on the wall you said you need a large piece for opposite the large tobacco basket

[@joannpilgrim1580]

Have to carry baby wipes with you.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Oh.. we do.. but that was a bit extreme on that butter churn

[@brendamcmahan6084]

As the saying goes....a little dirt won't hurt.

[@donnadozier4294]

I loved this haul. The wooden wall piece would look amazing over your pantry door. I loved your pieces. Thank you for sharing.❤❤

[@rhondawillis3019]

My sister and I went to a garage sale and a woman sold us really large cloches for $10. We bought 4.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Oh.. great price.. Chris told me I was wrong on the cloche price. It was $275😬

[@blueburytreasurelaurabrown8482]

The architectural piece could go over a door opening, perhaps the front door if it’s big enough. I hang metal pieces over my door spaces. Love the video!

[@lillianesparza213]

The crock will go great I’ve your microwave.

[@janetk7196]

Love it all!!!

[@ritahall8653]

If you buy any of this stuff you’re gonna have to put it in the bathtub with a couple of cups of Clorox and a tub full of hot water just to melt the dirt and grime off but it would be worth it

[@madeleingrove4833]

You got the swan! I thought you missed out on it! Beautiful find!

[@denafreeborn424]

Love watching you and Chris. Makes my day!

[@janicedauksch1821]

I loved an auction Never have them now in my area

[@rbirkheimer59]

Great to see you guys out and about! Wow what a auction. Those lamps. I could have spent all day just looking at them. You got some great stuff. I have never seen a swung vase like that. Beautiful. I'm lookin forward to Christmas in your new home! So much more for you to decorate! God Bless. Hugs, Rebekah

[@heatherbrown4336]

You got some beautiful things

[@lindawhite3238]

Ick, what an auction. Put your crocks, on top of your cupboards, on a couple of 2 x 4's set side by side to raise them up...just an idea. Thanx for sharing

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you

[@normaanderson3758]

Yvonne: I’m the lady who inquired about the miniature crock. I was able to fine it on eBay and I bought it this morning. I’m very excited to add it to my small collection. I can’t wait to see if you find anymore I might be able to snag up. Thank you. Love watching you and Chris on your hunts and your revamps of items some people would throw away. I absolutely love your new home and all the charm you’ve added to it. Thanks again

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Oh.. I’m glad you saw it.. I WILl definitely be on the lookout for them for you. You know I like tiny things 🥰

[@cindypoling5922]

Of course you need another crock. Great haul. You really find the best auctions.

[@allisonsil03]

I would love to have the house!!!!!!!

[@vintagebloom9577]

you got some awesome items! that salvaged architecture is sweet! before you decide to sell think about either hanging over a bed or doorway 😀

[@lisasmart1929]

Love those lamps! And yeah, I just turn my cracked or chipped crocks to the back, don’t see it!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Yep🤗

[@rivahkamp]

Yvonne, what was The sifter used for? Very interesting item ❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Good question.. I believe bulbs.. I wouldn’t think gold.. seems like that would be metal

[@JulieALamb-ih4jc]

Dang it!! I wanted to go to that!

[@judithstonier9872]

I've never seen so many items for sale I would have been completely overwhelmed the lamps were absolutely beautiful the pieces you got were great after a good wash ! 🥰

[@jenkozicki9105]

Sounds like you should keep a box of dispisable gloves in your van. 😂

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

I think we need to add that in our box..

[@petrahutchison6962]

That swung vase would look great in your bright kitchen window, with the sunlight hitting it.

[@tarynkriebel319]

That red piece is so pretty

[@user-bi4vs4rc1t]

So glad your back!

[@conniekirkland4425]

Your finds are just wonderful Yvonne,that swung vase is to die for!!

[@RuthHeller-i3h]

I need some bulbs I have two trees that belonged to my grandmother.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

I’ll get some listed Monday

[@Kat-d2u2]

I’m needing some of the small Christmas bulbs

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Ok.. I’ll get some listed Monday

[@None-685]

I hang my horse bells on my door knob. Like the sound Dawn dish detergent works wonders on cooking grease. Yea you probably have a handy Fanny pack with sanitizer, a magnet, a jewelers loop and a black light. Disposable gloves and a mask. A good cleaning and kilz deodorizer stain block primer and the house will be fine. The floors probably need stripping too. If it goes cheap it’s a good flipping house. A diamond in the rough. What a fun day and great finds.

Holy cow! I’m not even halfway through your video and I just have to say WOW! Those lamps! That’s exactly what I do when we get goodies from auctions! Sink full of warm soapy water!😁 Great haul! I need the Christmas tree!😜 And the bulbs! Hehehehe! Again great haul and so fun to watch! Thank you for sharing!

Yes.. there dirty and than there’s DIRTY 😬

I was there too! I wish I would've seen you! The house went for 95,000! It was truly a beautiful house in my hometown!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Wow.. that’s all it went for. But it did need .. a deep clean.. and those all houses sometimes need all of hidden updates ❤️would have loved to see you too. It was hot

[@None-685]

Start learning about Tiffany glass if you are seeing lamps there are probably beautiful glass pieces. A friend had one from her grandmother and I would never have known who made it.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

I know.. real Tiffany lamps have a marking inside them somewhere.. (saw that on Antique Road Show

[@None-685]

@@GingerChickRehabTheJourney Yes probably true I think there are brothers ? Maybe each having a trademark. I love watching that program and thanks for telling about the podcast.

[@JackieBurnsCreations]

I recently got some auction items that had been on the top of kitchen cabinets for a very long time. Ewww they were very furry and sticky. You found some really great things. Congrats on the swing vase.

[@lindafaierson6030]

Nice haul.

[@None-685]

Try to make double what you paid. It really needs to be 3x. You can’t be that nice it’s business. Maybe once in a while.

I know that the rule of them.. but having items sit and sit🫤

[@None-685]

@@GingerChickRehabTheJourney Yes you probably are right about that move it along but not before trying for more. It’s always a psychological thing 20.% off this week or something like that

[@donnaholbrook6733]

At least you don’t have to pay for all that dirt. I think the bottles you like are called a Hutchinson. Adventure archeology is a great show on utube to learn about bottle and fun to watch. Thank you for all your videos just live them all

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Lol.. yep dirt free( as they say) Chris watches the Under the Plains.. he digs up old outhouse area. I still don’t know the difference between tool top or a applied top🤗

Hello Yvonne and Chris! Loved your haul. Thank you so much!! 😊

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thanks for watching!

[@jaynebrown693]

Hello Yvonne…oh this video needed 2 viewings ! WOW WOW WOW !!! I grew up with 4 smokers in the house 🤢🤢🤢🤢 Always sick with sinus infections. Finally 2 siblings moved out…then my Dad had major emergency surgery and they had to PUMP the tar from his lungs for 24 hours before performing major surgery…UGH !!!! Then my Mother got cancer! You are right..THEY DON’T SMELL IT like Non-smokers do. I’m living in that house now and it took me a couple of years of washing cupboards down, ripping the carpet up was the best !!! It held so much of the smell. Now you would never know smokers lived here. I’m sure there were heavy smokers or they ate a lot of fried food 😳… then add years of dust from no one living there…. YUP…not nice. Thank goodness for Dawn Dish Soap! Oh my what beauties there were. That built in pantry… sigh…..😔 I can’t imagine buying one of those cabinet and everything in them! One looked like it was full of “ Willow Tree Figurines “ in it. All those beautiful BLUE BOTTLES in the sunlight.. what a statement! Glad you were able to get some UNDER $700 🫣 They really go that high? Guess we need to educate ourselves …LOL! Amazing ! I love the deep green glass, you showed us one …LOL!!! So glad you got that Sifter…YES 3 IS PREFECT ON THE WALL…UNEVEN NUMBERS 👍👍👍. Love how Chris asked which CROCKS you were interested in! LOL!!! What a thoughtful man🥰 My husband would redirect me 🤣 My have to watch this again…. Great, great video !!!

[@robincivis9501]

Yvonne, I love the architectural salvage you won at auction...have you considered hanging it over a doorway?

Yes! You have to keep that! gorgeous!

That wood piece would fit above any door way or window, if you have the room for it to fit. Or on a hutch. Love your purchases on this haul.

[@melindamoore9449]

Not Tiffany lamps but Arts and Crafts lamps by Miller; and, Hubbard. The archetectural piece could go over a doorway as a header. Nice haul. Love the #4 jug. Great piece.

Hi. Love your shows on KZbin. I need to know the name of your favorite green paint by Fusion. Will it do well on my painted kitchen cabinets? I am planning on sanding them first. They are painted white enamel. Thanks Judy Piland, Jacksonville,Fl.

[@shellydehart8217]

OMG that was a huge auction. Those Tiffany lamps were absolutely gorgeous. Your so right they are sooo expensive. I would of bought the butter churn. If you remember the oil spill years ago n how they cleaned up the animals with good old Dawn dish soap. It’s cuts grease like butter. ( no pun attended😆) I wash dishes with it, spot clean any clothes with grease it’s great stuff. I know you use it to clean your items. I think you found cool things. That Swan is precious with a baby attached. Love your crocks. Your right you never see the cracks from the backs. Now you’ve got my attention on the Ironstone. Beautiful shape n who cares if the bowl isn’t Ironstone it’s still a good piece n it matches. The shaker (screen) round item is so cool. And yes 3 would look good. They always say use odd number to display. It would look good hanging with the other two. I know how you feel not having enough wall space. I don’t have it either. My house has so many windows which I love but it’s nice to be able to display your favorites. My house was built in 1950 n I have 22 windows. It’s tough! Have a great weekend. ♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟🌟

[@allisonsil03]

Your longaberger basket was made by a left handed weaver! That’s a good deal 🙌🏻. When the top band ends facing left it was made it was a lefty or right it was a righty. (I sold LB for MANY years)

[@laurievoelker9005]

👋🏻 I have been enjoying your channel. I wanted to share that I found a large round shaker basket at my Antique mall for $ 27. I was thrilled. 😊 has some green paint. Also the exact butterfly lamp u saw that was broken . Mine is perfect. Also a smaller one where the body of the butterfly is a sleeping baby. So precious. I am addicted to Antique malls. 😊

[@annjohns9939]

So many beautiful things. All the crocks and glass are as you said "are yummy". My head is spinning of my shoulders!!

[@crashcrash1297]

I'm always impressed at how your finds clean up with just Dawn, but how did you get the inside of that large bottle behind you so clean?!?

[@sylvialangworthy1435]

Wow! All those Tiffany lamps! Like the crock's you got and the large jug. What an auction! 🤗

[@debbiegrounds9049]

Wow. What an auction, so many wonderful things. I’ve never seen so many crocks in one place. The bottles, lamps, oh my goodness. Great score on that $5 crock. I’m like you, crack doesn’t bother me and can’t see it when displayed. Another great haul ❤

[@dorothyybarra5860]

3 on the wall would NOT be too much!!!!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

😊

[@PearlCottage]

I don't understand complaining about dirt and smell or rubbing fingers on a table becuz you " touched" something.🙄 the complaints are really rude about someone else's belongings. Wear gloves or skip that auction .

[@dorothyybarra5860]

Why do the crocks have the swirls?

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

It’s just a different type of marking.. some are plain , some stenciled on and some have artist type of markings. All done before glazing and firing.

[@barbgalligan4885]

That was a lot of stuff! You got great stuff.

[@joyceprocure1644]

Wow, what an awesome haul! Im with you on the white pitchers and blue bottles. Love them. Your kitchen cabinet where you are displaying seems dark inside ,not showing things in the best light. Mirrored back maybe? A lighter colour interior, or lined with a patterned fabric? Or perhaps you have interior lighting that wasn’t turned on?

[@dawnlesesne5510]

Why aren’t your arms covered in the sunlight …take care of yourself

[@darleenstill7011]

Man o man, that sale had tons of great stuff! And that pantry, wow! The jug crock you got was still a beautiful steal! I wonder how filthy that quilt got by the time it sold! When stuff is that filthy you don't want to spend much cuz you may not see cracks.

Wow, there were soooooo many gorgeous things. That red vase is gorgeous, you were saying “no it’s not glowing “, I’m saying it is glowing😂. I love those blue bottles. I’m glad you got a couple of cool crocks. I HATE cigarette smoke. I’ve never had a sense of smell but cigar smoke literally makes me sick and cars or houses with cigarette smoke stench will too. 😊❤

You should have gotten at least one lamp😁

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Lol.. 🤗

[@alysonsmith6998]

I find your textured walls the easiest to repair. Just take a small ball of fast and final spackle and push it in the hole. Lightly tap your finger on it to give it texture, try not to smear it around. Your walls are so white you probably wouldn't have to paint it. If you do, take an artist brush and carefully just paint the spot. I hate when people take a putty knife and scrape a huge patch across and then can't blend it in. No need for that!

[@patriciavavra7375]

The architectural piece would be pretty above a door. You got some great stuff!

[@bonniesmith1179]

It was still a very fun auction to tag along. It was just a shame you couldn’t deals within the smoke smell, but I totally understand it, in the house because the furniture was absolutely beautiful!!!

[@dianeedwards9687]

WHY was everything so DIRTY 😮

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

We don’t know 😕

More than likely, it was an older person OR a deceased persons home.. I don't judge on the dirt.. we all live differently.

[@kimcollins9462]

You got some great stuff, I loved all those crock's, and bottles and jugs. You always seem to find a piece of iron stone every were you go.... I went to a thrift store yesterday, they had just put out a cart of like new Santa Clauses for $3 each it's the big tall ones that have presents and lanterns and just all kinds of stuff. I also found a pitcher mid size, I think it's iron stone it's very heavy but it doesn't say iron stone, did you not say that you have found some that wasn't marked God bless🙏

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

No not all ironstone is marked ( from me asking goggle search) great price on some Santa.. right time to buy 🎅🏼

Omgoodness! I would have swooned over those lamps, but like you, way out of my price range. And the cabinets that house were Awesome, I would love to have them in my house, just gorgeous!!! Clearly I would have come away from that place penniless! Because I saw so much that I would have tried to buy. I love auctions like this one. Just row after row of amazing finds. Makes you wonder though, how did one house hold soooo much stuff. Thanks for the show, I truly enjoyed this one. Oh and I have found that a soak in good ole vinegar and borax or baking soda will get the smell out of most anything. Take care! Loads of love! xx

What a collection of items at that auction. I'm drooling. I've see you touch and clean some really dusty, dirty things in videos. So when you were grossed out , I knew they had to be pretty bad. . Maybe they thought the dirt and grime would prove they were old and people would pay more money? I really like what you got. I hope that big jug won't be too heavy over your refrigerator. I know you were concerned about that last video. Sorry you didn't get a lamp.
