Oh my goodness... I NEED SMELLING SALTS AFTER THIS VIDEO! I think I have hyperventilated 3 times with items I saw ..... Have to say you two are very disciplined...but then you know what sells in your Shop. But oh my.... the “wood spools in ALL sizes... Yup all those copper pots, then the silverware and the drawer after drawer of knobs.... the little stools.... ! “. I need the salts again! I think I need to watch this again! Good thing I am NOT going....LOL!!!! I am in awe at how you got it all home! PROFESSIONAL FOR SURE! Now I can’t wait to see the items in your HOME ! So exciting!

[@JamiRayVintage]

I think I kept about half of what we brought home for myself lol. Worth it! ❤️❤️

[@carolynlunel9382]

@@JamiRayVintage , SOOOO worth it!!!😂❤

[@geraldineh.5696]

"Plan du Marché" means Map of the Market!! You actually were in the Vernaison Market in the St Ouen Flea market, North of Paris. Nice finds, maybe a little pricey. I woulda paid 0.45 € for the used paint can.

[@see4182]

I would have paid nothing for it. "I'll take it away for you so you won't have to pay the dump. How 'bout that? What a deal."

[@willothewispl]

Oh my, I loved the knobs and linens. And the blue pot you carried in your backpack. That was fun seeing you shopping there and all the good stuff. 🧳✈️🗝

[@saraleecoleman4427]

My daughter and I were in every neighborhood at night and it was always safe. Take someone with you who speaks French, and never wear white tennis shoes.

[@debjh]

Ohhhh I LOVED this so much!! I have a “thing” for old copper too. Those pots, wow! The key Zeb found was beautiful. When you showed the dash of all those cool wood boxes with French writing..I was OH I NEED those!!

[@JamiRayVintage]

I think Zeb has plans on building some boxes like that.

[@carolynlunel9382]

Deb,me tooo!! Lol the boxes & crates! I used to have SO many copper pots years ago..got rid of them!!

[@maggiefletcherscuriouscelt4199]

Last time I went to Paris was with my daughter. She’s a patisserie chef. We spent the entire time visiting chocolate shops and brought back over $300 in chocolates just from La Masion du Chocolat on av. des Champs-Elysee. The goodies are long gone but we still have the boxes!!!! Simple but dear to us souvenirs. I love everything you brought back! I think it all belongs in your new home or as part of a display at the shop. You can use them for class props when demonstrating how to duplicate a French patina/vintage look.

[@JamiRayVintage]

I loved alllll of the French packaging. It’s all so pretty!

[@barbarajeanbraceletlady3090]

I will never forget this trip Debi planned. Sorry it didn’t work out but with taking matters into your own hands, it worked out to your advantage. Now you’re going to France again, to purchase and resale. I look forward to seeing future videos, regarding that trip (Happy Anniversary). Barbara Jean Youlio.

[@ChippyNest]

So glad you had a great trip! My favorites are the copper pots and Jami’s paint bucket!💗

[@furnitureflipbysarah]

So excited for this video!!! Thanks for sharing

[@glendagrant9042]

Oh I have carried so many treasures on my back.😅In the old days you got 2 big bags but I do ok with just one. I go with tiny bits of clothes. I always go to the neighborhood markets like you found at the end. You can google them. I go to one or two on Sat and another on Sunday. Nothing but markets on the weekend. I go solo at almost 70. I keep my money safe and am aware. I don't think you were in danger it was just very different. My favorite is that gorgeous frame, next the copper pots. ❤❤

[@JamiRayVintage]

Yeah it was pretty relaxed. Just had to watch out for pick pockets. That’s a real thing in crowded streets.

[@BrownyBird]

Thank you for the video. I also can add to all of that that everywhere we go as soon as they hear either my kids or husbando speaking British English, they eyes pop up and the only thing they see from that moment is MONEY.

[@theunretireddesigner6448]

I love what you brought back. My favourite thing to buy though is things made from fabric. Their quilts are amazing and I love linen tea towels, nothing dries better. Marche is pronounced marshay, like Bon Marche the American supermarket, which literally translates to good market.

[@amydillardGypsySoul]

Beautiful things, Jami- I'm glad you finally got to find your groove at the "sketchy" flea markets LOL!!

[@lfazzary]

Fun video-Thanks for sharing! I love the little horse!

[@airizarry12]

Awesome Awesome, :) So glad you got your pots, so glad you had a marvelous trip and are back home safe and sound.

[@mickeykyker4837]

What an exciting adventure! I loved so much of what you got. Really loved the pewter pitcher. You guys are so inspiring.

[@kimberlywhitfield7050]

Omgoodness! Love the pots!

[@Beth112453]

Oh my! So many gorgeous finds! I especially love the enamelware pitchers and the fan!

[@kimtruax]

What a fabulous trip! Thank you for sharing all your finds!

[@joannesferrati3076]

So glad you had fun. The first time is always exciting. Thank you!

[@wendydevereaux4282]

Love this re-cap of your adventures Great finds!

[@samanthabarris3729]

Love it all! The paint bucket is my favorite ❤️

[@marybristol1064]

Love the pot in the backpack! I did the same thing with a piece I bought in southern Utah while visiting relatives and touring Moab area. It does in my lap on the plane trip back to Atlanta. I love all you bought I can't pick a favorite! I hope someday to make such a trip as you guys just did! Thanks for all the pictures and updates!

[@nhunter6506]

Beautiful photos!

[@Peggyanns]

I love everything! I guess my favorite is the lidded pewter pitcher.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Wow! You really found some cool items! I love the paint bucket most, that’s the kind of thing I would have bought. The enamelware is beautiful as well.

[@frenchfarmhouseflair]

Great French finds! I went to Paris last February with my daughter, and my favorite thing was going to the Paris flea market. Thanks for sharing... it made me think of when we were there searching for goodies to bring back. I brought a large empty suitcase with me, and had fun filling it with lovely French finds. My favorites are probably the enamelware and copper pots too. They also travel well and you don’t have to worry about them breaking.👍🏻🤗 I too love the architecture in France... it’s the best!🇫🇷

[@doedoe49]

Welcome back ,loved all the things you got . The enamel ware is so awesome ,and your copper pots .

[@janiceforkum3889]

LOVE the colors of the paint bucket!!👍💖

[@JamiRayVintage]

It’s still my favorite souvenir. It’s displayed on my mantle with flowers in it

[@springhernandez7417]

So love what you got. So nice to share everything with everyone just awesome. I’m with you jami the paint bucket and copper pans love. But enjoy it all

[@nanettedunn7375]

So glad that you took things into your own hands and made the best out of a unfortunate situation. Thank goodness that you finally found things to buy. Looking forward to all the videos that come from your trip to France.

[@Cool.Cat.Flannegan]

Those books! Love to get my hands on some French books.That seems dubious for the tour guide to take you to her store for you to buy marked up priced items.

[@anne-mariebiorci5453]

The paint tin and key are the perfect French souvenir.

[@donnaaguilar374]

That paint bucket is everything I love it

[@marh6276]

LOVE your new /old copper pots !!!! Enjoy ....

[@lenefried8736]

Love the pics of the doors and the colors of them!

[@nancycowan6109]

Wow. That was inspiringly fabulously great. Thanks for sharing! ❤️

[@sherry1674w]

awesome....so glad you had a wonderful time and that you found some great treasures and worked together. thank you so much for sharing...

[@donnaprzybilla2936]

What an amazing trip! Thank you for sharing!

[@lifesuchasthis3932]

Everything was pretty amazing but I really loved the white enamel shelf and the green sink plus your paint can

[@americansweetheart5597]

I love the old paint pale. Adorable.

[@michaelacummings4308]

I’m glad you had a great time in France, loved what you bought back with you. And I’m sure you will use your inspiration to good effect. Love to you all from Bonnie Scotland. X

[@marylynngottler7055]

Beautiful!!! Inspired just looking at it all!

[@maryd55m]

Thank you for sharing your trip. You brought back some wonderful treasures. I can't wait to see what you do with them.

[@1justice2012]

Amazing how you were able to pack everything!

[@jodiemeschke6889]

Your treasures are amazing. So glad you got to go to France, and that you had a great time. Thanks for sharing.

[@lindeehopkins6439]

The copper pots & enamel ware are my fav of the haul & LOVE the chippy doors!

[@catherinemiles8021]

What an amazing trip and all you fantastic finds🤔🤗

[@annette224m]

The copper pots are everything. I’m with you Jami that paint bucket is really cool. Thanks for sharing😊😊

[@Nativegirlslots]

What an awesome trip. Wow

[@pampetersen8110]

The pitchers are beautiful. Love the paint bucket too! :)

[@brendastraley8829]

I have a tip on bring back things from a trip. Take clothes that you don't care is you leave there to make room for your purchases. take your oldest nightgown, underie and socks. Once there dirt toss them and that will help on making more room in the suitcase. The other plus side is less laundry to wash when you get home.

[@barbburnam3107]

Oh what fun you had but glad you are back safe and sound. Love the copper pots ❤️

[@donnawilkes8954]

The paint bucket is my favorite. Second the tall blue pitcher. I would have been rolling in all the spools!

[@empressnoel1661]

Thanks for sharing this awesome story! My heart sang. over the spools, wooden boxes, and the rolling bench (antique skateboard) piece. But for me the library reference card drawers gave me goosebumps! Didnt hurt the were filled with such amazing stuff! 😊

[@elizabethrios611]

That was fun!!

[@grammyaliyah8134]

Those blue Doors in France made my heart sing

[@JamiRayVintage]

They are everywhere!

[@rduckster4727]

Gotta love the paint bucket!

[@cobwebafternoon3737]

The rusty bucket is my fav! I would love to see u re-create it! 💞 loved this video! I'm going to watch it several more times 🙂🖐

[@JamiRayVintage]

❤️❤️❤️

[@cherylmacedo5521]

First off…what fun and good for you to go to France even though you don’t speak the language. You got great items both for yourself and to resell, and I totally get the “special souvenirs”, I’m like that too. Forget the snow globes and key chains 😅 Can’t help but catch the references of DIY paint colors - White Swan and Tarnished Pearl being the names of your friends’ stores. Coincidence? Or Debi Beard paying homage to them ?? Ummm never mind it is Debi (I see her in the sketchy storage unit) 🤣🤣🤣

[@susantaylor8507]

Oh I love that yellow tea pot

[@bobbiesueturner4973]

I loved the paint bucket 🙀

[@kathleenhofstad383]

Really loved this video!

[@wmomente]

Great fun following your shopping trips

[@kimmybee12]

Love all your treasures! The fancy e on marche is pronounced like an "a"....like marshay 😊

[@shealafredrick4122]

Freaking awesome. I'm dying over the copper pots and the spice containers.

[@sadiejosiemom]

I loved the copper pots with all the green patina! And I loved that green door/fence thingey you took a picture of.

[@sweethaven1929]

Fir sure those copper pots my favorite, I would have been looking for old perfume bottles...and lace....Great that you had fun.

[@dianejoa1754]

Fun trip!Good tips for traveling abroad.

[@lindahill3]

Always buy what you love even if it is for resale as you know--if it doesn't sell it's yours so you better love it! My favorite was the paint can and never never sell it---you will never find another~!

[@sagreenaidoo5228]

Luv your copper pots good idea to keep them

[@leticiagonzales8820]

Welcome back I really miss you guys 👏👏😘

[@staciegulizia4144]

[@wendygale4808]

[@starr6465]

[@Betharoot]

[@Alexander-us7hw]

[@hootenanny1001]

love everything you brought back and can`t wait to see where and what you are going to do with them...Also appreciate being taken along to see Marie Antoinette`s and Monet`s garden and the beautiful architecture ..truly stunning!! Thank you.

[@JamiRayVintage]

I think we’ll do a dedicated video to monets garden with the palace of Versailles. We’ve got a ton of footage for both.

[@hootenanny1001]

oh, that would be lovely..also enjoyed our bus trip around Paris@@JamiRayVintage

[@lindak7499]

Thank you for all the tips. That is exactly the type of information most of us who haven't been there need. I am going to use that same basic concept when I get to Denmark. Things may be very different, but I will remember those basic concepts. Thank you

[@JamiRayVintage]

❤️❤️

[@97ryanscott]

Oh my gosh!!! I hope one day to make it to Paris to see the sights, but never thought of hitting flea markets and thrift stores!!Hahahaha, if I get the chance to make it there, guess where I’ll be?? Hahahaha, thank you for the great content, and sharing your vacay vids...you inspire me to do my own crafting and thrifting!! Love it!!!
