I am so happy and so touched that I won one of the hands!!! Never did I imagine that when I jotted down thoughts about my dad that I would win one of the amazing hands. I will cherish it, and it will remind me on a daily basis the kindness of Laura and her followers😀❤️. Happy Day😀😀

I was in thrift store today. I came home and watched your video. I literally had just seen that exact coffee pot there l did not know what it was so i left it. After seeing your video I dropped everything and flew back. Thankfully it was still there. It is now mine. Thank you for your knowledge. I have learned so much from you! 🙏🙏🙏

I have never thought of using candle pedestals as plant pedestals, that is genius and so simple!

[@pattimercer9357]

Laura, I just love your Left Coast Revival videos! The Recycled life videos are sometimes too chaotic for me! I usually watch them without sound! But I love your individual style of filming and love your ‘re-cap in the car!’ Keep on doin’ just what you’re doin’!

[@bavariangirl123]

Laura, great finds! I am originally from Bavaria and that beer stein you found is a tremendous find and would cost quite a bit. It is a limited edition and hand-made (Handarbeit). I would have snatched that up in a heartbeat. The lion is the symbol for Bavaria and he is holding the crest with the Bavarian flag.

[@barbaracrane470]

You are such a cutie and remind me of me at the same age. (I'm 72 now!) I thought I'd let you know that FooDogs came from Foochow, China and really were huge, vicious dogs that guarded the emperor's castle. They looked like lions and were called lion dogs. Today's chows are descendants. Since lesser wealthy men couldn't own the real dogs so they placed these statues outside the doors of their homes. The female is the one with her paw on a puppy. The male has its paw on the ball or earth. It looks like yours is male. I am a retired art teacher and museum teacher. I love all things Chinese. Keep up the great thrifting! Hugs and love from a fan in Memphis, Tennessee.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Oh thank you for sharing! I didn’t know that about the male and female symbols ❤️❤️

[@egreen9841]

I think the copper thingy with 4 circular depressions could be an Advent "wreath", especially since there are leaf prints around the perimeter. You would put 3 purple candles and one pink one for the 4 weeks of Advent before Christmas.

[@Snoops510]

After looking them up, I think you're right. Many are made of pewter.

I am in the Midwest in our Goodwill‘s are just as much if not more and our quality is 1/10 as good as her Goodwill‘s they are very disappointing to say the least! I maybe buy something every fifth time I go In I feel like blowing it off and not go in but then I do find something cool... mostly I try to support the independent Shops!

[@nancyrichwine1355]

@@gygi2109 Midwest here too. Seems like the best things are on the two coasts!🤷‍♀️

[@annehenry6243]

Seriously??? Do we just keep and use things longer, here in the midwest? Is that why we're always chiming in with what 1950s thing she's bought is used for....because we still have one ourselves? My friend's parents still have their 1950s refrigerator. They won't get a new one because, well, that one is still running. Maybe that's it. I don't know. Doesn't explain why our dollar trees don't have what's shown on KZbin either. It's really frustrating.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

There were so many great hand entries! ❤️ It was a blast reading through them!

Those cushions were fab!! What about taking 2 tassels off the one with 4 on opposite corners then adding contrasting tassels to the empty corners?

[@curtischildress9580]

I absolutely enjoy your videos and the nature you have of being friendly to everyone you meet and then relate that friendliness to all of us who are your fans. Your shopping trips are much fun for me personally since I'm presently recovering from an illness and taking treatments and doing therapy. My 2 close friends and I spent our times thrifting for ourselves and our collections. COVID stopped us but now shops have reopened and I can't walk like before being on a walker and trying to transition to a cane. ...Thank you for providing everyone with entertainment and your good spirit which makes us all see where we can be friendly with this world of diverse people as you are. ...I pray you and yours and everyone be safe and well. ...Happy Easter!!!

Have you made any videos on how to tell silver plated vs sterling or glass from crystal, real turquoise from fake? Great haul today. Can't wait to see your next videos!

[@charlestonscnative9083]

I too love beauty and history over trendy. Buying 2nd hand beautiful functional pieces instead of trendy junk, saves the planet too from landfills becoming bloated pits of junk! Thank you Laura for all the ideas and education!!!

[@dianegriffith3006]

The blue fu dog? I remember when my grandmother had those-I think she liked Asian influence in artifacts- I’m 75 now so you can imagine how long ago that was-thank you so much for the history on these selections. Oh, I d think that was an old muffin holder.

Good find on the Chemex coffee maker for $6.99! The original Chemex goes back to 1941. The current retail price of a regular Chemex is around $45.00. However, if it is a handblown one they retail for over $100 depending on the size. I have been using the Chemex style with the handle for the last few years.

[@TheCraftyraven]

I had a chemex coffee maker in the mid-seventies! Good memories. Peace

[@fareast_de]

Nice purchase, Laura ! The beer stein at 11:51 is a typical tourist item from Bavaria, Germany, and shows the Bavarian arms: lion and what we call "Rautenmuster". Not very old, perhaps from the 70s or 80s, but nevertheless a handpainted item. Greets from GER, U.

[@nonameneeded9267]

I love this channel and, Laura, you look such a nice and fun person!! Watching these videos is like talking to a friend 😊 An random idea: would it be possible to have a video series in which each video centers around a certain brand (or style) of pottery, metal, etc...? For example, to learn how to date those pieces, to recognize them, which are the rare vs. common ones, how to style them... I live in EU and for example I love mid-century West Germany pottery 😊

[@tracey6556]

I’m so glad you came by today!!! I was watching another video and got the notification and... well, see ya other video! Ha. I have the long basket you turned down. I put a a couple of cotton t-towels in it and toss my dinner rolls in it for when we host family dinners. That way they don’t get all squished. Once again, love your finds. We found a cool hand carved maraca garage selling Tulsa this morning! Happy Easter everyone! (Perfect hand winners!)

Dear Laura, first of all Happy Easter! 🐇 I‘m a pretty new subscriber to your channel, but I love your content, especially watching your goodwill hunts.... I also love a good second hand even it’s fashion or furniture..., I’m always impressed how much you know about the staff you’re finding! Today I’ve decided to leave a comment on this video, because you gave me a huge smile as you picked up the ‚beerstein‘ and explained that you love it because of the blue coloring and the lion... 😄 please allow me to explain what you picked here... I’m from south Germany / Bavaria and no, not all of us are drinking beer, eating sauerkraut and wearing Dirndls... 🤪 but we are usually very traditional 😀 and the beerstein you’ve picked is drawn with the Bavarian coat of arm? Sorry I had to goggle this expression - so I hope you get it, blue and white are the traditional colors from our flag and the lion is ‚our‘ animal... so you got a pretty god Bierkrug - how we call it, because it also has a ‚zinc lid/ cover‘.... so have fun with it! 😅 i wish I could also go onto a thrift hunt, but were stumbling here from one lockdown to the next 😕 so your videos are a welcome inspiration Feed! Greeting from Sonja

[@vintage5729]

I was watching your video while my husband was prepping dinner and he overheard you say, "my shop sale" and he got excited because he thought you had a store front we could go to! (and we could we don't live too far), I just thought it was funny and thought you might too!

[@susancade2092]

Thank you Laura for acknowledging other cultures and the craftsmanship and care that they put into their work.

You had me at Chemex! LOL. I remember buying one new in 1998 with my husband. We moved from Cali to Utah and chose to donate it. Don't know what I was thinking. BUT, it all comes back to us in the end. Like this week. I found and bought a vintage Chemex pour over carafe a few days ago and thought to myself, "Laura would love this!" Without knowing for sure that you would love it. LOL! And here you are with one. Beaming! 🌞 My middle son, on the spectrum, loves vintage Chemex carafes too! He has been researching their history, and said to me what you did about how in America we tend to create from a 'what's current' disposable point. He watches your videos with me and lit up with the Chemex today. He said that when you look at anything classic it tends to usually have form meets function. "Mom, I like older items for a lot of reasons. One is because they vintage usually last longer and looks beautiful doing so." I agree with him and you. Oh, our vintage, handblown, Chemex has an embossed marking on the top part and green label on the base. It really is a gorgeous work of art that works to help us make the best coffee every day. ☕️❤️ Cheers!
