For those asking (from Wiki) A Hanukkah menorah, or hanukkiah, is a nine-branched candelabrum lit during the eight-day Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. Eight of the nine branches hold lights (candles or oil lamps) that symbolize the eight nights of the holiday; on each night, one more light is lit than the previous night, until on the final night all eight branches are ignited. The ninth branch holds a candle, called the shamash ("helper" or "servant"), which is used to light the other eight. The Hanukkah menorah commemorates, but is distinct from, the seven-branched menorah used in the ancient Temple in Jerusalem. Most people incorrectly refer to this as a menorah, when in fact the correct name for the candleholder is Hanukkiah or Hanukkah menorah. A menorah, which has only seven candleholders, was the lamp used in the ancient holy temple in Jerusalem - now a symbol of Judaism and an emblem of Israel. A Hanukkiah, however, has nine candlesticks - one for each night of Hanukkah and an extra one to light the others. According to strict Jewish law, a Hanukkiah should have eight candleholders of the same height and a ninth branch that is set higher than the rest.

I came here for someone to explain the differences

[@EccentrixTreasures]

Thank you for explaining this... I thought it was a new car company: Hyundai Kia.

[@donnasellers4273]

Hi Laura. I just discovered your channel and was watching this video. A really schronistic thing happened. At your 8:48 you mentioned you were looking for a patchwork dress from the 70’s. I had been going through some vintage clothing I have for sale and pulled out a vintage maxi patchwork sun dress right before watching this. So funny. It is a size 6. Would that happen to be your size? I would love to send you a photo if it is. I am not tech savvy so I would probably be able to do it through text or email. If you want photos let me know. It is all light pastel type colors. The brand is Grace Elements.

[@gailwilliams3296]

Come on ppl, can’t we get Laura to 100,000 subscribers this year?! Who’s with me? Share, share, share her great talents and awesome personality!!🎉🥰🎉and Happy New Year All!!

I love traveling to thrift! Unfortunately my storage unit was just broken into and all of my inventory gone. About $25,000 just gone. Its just sad the amount of thieves there are in this world. But I love watching your videos as a reminder there are still some good people in the World. So thanks for taking the time to create these.

[@stephanievaldez6924]

The same thing happened to me 😔

[@gilloera8912]

Yes, I've been a collector for most of my life. I had a collection of swarovski crystal and I was robbed by someone who I thought was a friend. Later I found out he was a professional thief! Now I have few friends or hardly any at all. I hate thievery!

[@janelstorbakken5910]

Asshat thieves!!!!

[@cmarq817]

Oh! So sorry. ☹️

[@ednajohnson2190]

So sorry to hear this. We have a storage unit in MD. Shortly after we packed it, it was broken into. The first thing the manager said to me was do you have any electronics in there? No, just household items and keepsakes. I don't think that anything was stolen, however it is a real violation of our personal items. Recently, our storage company changed to Cube Smart. They offer insurance on the units. Hope this information helps you.

[@beautybug1831]

OMG! Lauren, you brought tears to my eyes, my JEWISH, teacher's eyes... 😁 (happy tears, btw) when you said "Chanukiya" instead of the "regular"... WORDS we're used to hearing... "Menorah" (which is a totally DIFFERENT thing) "Chanukah Lamp" (But according to Halacha, light is forbidden, so how... 🤔) and, of course, we have "Chanukah Menorah" 😮‍💨... (that Menorah once again). So, good on you, girl, for spreading the RIGHT terminology!

[@janelstorbakken5910]

Are hats your signature look? Many of them are very cute!

[@tracythomas343]

I got really excited when I saw the round brass table top at min 4:40. I have that table. My mom bought it in 1972 from pier one imports. It’s something I grew up with and it brings me great comfort to still have it. I remember the day she bought it. It came with folding legs. The legs are long gone, they fell apart but I bought a base for it and it’s my living room coffee table. 😁👍🏻

[@leftcoastrevivals]

So wonderful you have been able to repurpose it and still enjoy it! What special memories ☺️

[@maryeliason1504]

Love the birds! You spotted another penguin pot! 😄

[@marilynwoodard7961]

I love the flying birds piece, as well as the whole corner grouping. When you were hanging the birds I thought, "It's too high...no, wait, she'll put something on the piano and it will be fine". 😊 Sure enough, everything looks stunning.

I miss your all day goodwill thrift days!!! Glad you found your husband's bucket list item!!

Thanks Carolyn! ❤️❤️

[@chandaharkins4418]

I've probably already commented on this older video, but I'm re-watching, and I had to say that I love the juxtaposition of the shiny black piano with all your wooden pieces. I know you said it's not your style, but I think it balances everything out so well.

[@JW-yt7lr]

You didn't pick up the crab bowls ? I was looking forward to seeing them in your haul . Really thought you'd get them , they're so much fun .

[@amyweaver7413]

What wonderful finds. I’m so happy that Jesse found his bucket-list piece. They look a,axing as does everything you’ve shown us in Little Italy.

[@margiemistretta8885]

The black piano adds interest i love it!

[@CopingwithGrattitude]

Who plays?

[@krismurrell3010]

My sisters house came with a piano she didn’t want. Her 12 year old daughter loved it and decided wanted to learn to play. So to make it a little more livable for my sister she painted it Navy Blue. I think it was chalk paint. So no shine. At first she panicked but once she got the clear wax on it, it changed it completely. I wish I could post a photo because it looks amazing!

[@Iloveanimals369]

I LOVE the birds in flight sculpture! It's awesome!

[@MaryMamaAshlee]

What a great video. I super love that rug!!! And I'm the lucky new owner of gorgeous Russian candleholder at the end. I just love it!

Your ability to coordinate and style your finds is truly your super power! Love that you always show how you do this at the end of your videos. And unless you want a polyester quilted skirt, perhaps look for someone to make your dress for you.

Your house already looks like a home, lived in and loved. You are so talented.

[@zipperplucker]

Some things you find and I love at first sight, but there are also quite a few that I would walk right past. You hold it up, tell us it’s amazing, and I’m like….hmmm. When you style it and I finally see what you knew all along, it’s like seeing those artists turn a paining upside down for the end reveal. I love it!

[@leftcoastrevivals]

This made me smile! Thank you for your sweet words! I’ve always loved thinking outside the box with things and reimagining them since I was a kid. I’m so grateful to be able to share it on here on YT ❤️

[@rt3box6tx74]

I'm exactly the same. Laura goes nuts over the same things my mom had sitting around, which to my eye was just old stuff i had to dust on Sat mornings. The difference is Laura's ability to style the pieces in groupings that tell a story, rather than merely plunked down willie-nilly.

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

24:06 I love the tray that’s a leaf 🍃 and the weird TIKI mugs; I use mine regularly and drink cocktails 🍹 of different kinds monthly 😊.

[@sheilap6109]

I live in Tacoma. Thank you for confirming what I've been saying after watching your video's. Tacoma thrift stores are not as good as yours in Oregon. I find a few things sometimes but it's super rare to fill my cart. I need to do an overnight shopping spree to the Portland area thrift stores.

[@rhondaburke5700]

Bellingham wa is good!

[@mpeter3881]

Yes, yes, yes! Not only is it rare to find a treasure, Goodwill prices have been getting so high-in my opinion.

[@omfug7148]

I am here too, I maybe find something to buy at the Goodwill a few times a month, but most of their better stuff goes to auction or listed in their various ebay stores. Interestingly, Oregon also lists stuff on the website, but their stores seem stuffed compared to the Tacoma area.

[@louisesnell6677]

In my old house I had 4 large white globes for lighting hanging from high ceilings. They were all close to 30 inches in diameter. They had been purchased in the 1970's from a design store called "Skan". This shop was in northern Virginia and was very much the "in" place to shop MDM at the time. My husband, who is now deceased, would absolutely adore your films. Thanks so much.

I don't understand why it is placed like that. The placement just doesn't look right and in a way diminishes the look of the rug.

[@donnaplumridge9769]

I can remember when as a little girl in the 60’s we had a clock like you were showing us in the beginning of the vlog, with the most uncomfortable sectional sofa! I think the material had a lot to do with it. As time progressed in the 70’s ( my preteen and teenage years ), I noticed a lot of the lamps we had in our home! I’m happy to say, my parents got rid of the sectional sofa, which was then moved into our basement, used as a family room. Your spider plant brought back memories, as I made a macrame ( I mentioned in a previous vlog in comment section ),holder, which housed my mom’s spider plant. That alone screams the 70’s for me! Thank you for the memories!

[@charlenegirouard901]

[@wandajuul5150]

I live in Seattle and agree, Tacoma's antique row is sweet. I, too, have given up on Goodwill of Tacoma stores. Compared to Seattle Goodwill stores, Goodwill of Tacoma stores seem to have less square footage, so they have to more heavily curate their stock. They seem biased towards new, tagged, bulk purchased items--not my jam at all. The two regional store chains are so different that if you dropped me, blindfolded, into one I could tell you right away which region the store was managed by.

The holiday is Hanukah, the festival of lights. This is a 9 candle Menorah used for that December time holiday. There is also a 7 candle Menorah used at Passover. On both, the middle candle is higher than the others and used to light the others.
