I hope you do realize that once you get the 3rd floor room done, we are all going to want a series of videos of you giving the room a makeover... a vintage makeover.

Touch each item only once. If you are selling it, put it in a box to leave the room. No need to have to move to shelf then move again.

She stated she didn’t have packing material in the room.

[@rebahensley5323]

I think she said her goal was to clear the floor and get the chair out of the room, so in that sense, she is accomplishing the task without having boxes sitting everywhere, as Casey only takes a few at a time to list. However, you point is noted.

Try soaking the taped on items in the sink in warm water. A lot of times after soaking for 30 minutes or so the tape with slide off pretty easily. The plastic material can be tricky and might have a little residue left but it usually comes off pretty clean for me with that method.

[@CrazyLampLady]

[@prairiecollectors]

Hi Jocelyn, I just wanted to let you know that I use Goo Gone all the time. I use Goo Gone on cardboard boxes like the Goodwill price tag you just ripped off, and it wouldn't have hurt the box at all. I use it on packages of vintage nylon stockings, I use it for everything and no it will not melt the plastic of your canister set, you just put some on a paper towel and wipe the canister said it won't hurt it at all. When I use it on cardboard I put a piece of paper towel underneath and it will have a mark for a couple of days but the sticker comes off after about an hour of soaking....so really use goo gone for many other things I have and I don't worry about it damaging anything.

[@cindyneel328]

I'm sure you've heard this one a million times but... vegetable oil will take off sticker goo too just not as quickly. A hairdryer will lift a sticker off boxes, paper etc.

[@glitterglistenglossfloss2530]

Try “un-do” instead of goo gone. It’s works SOOOO much better and is way less messy. Seriously cuts the work of getting residue off in half and hasn’t harmed anything I’ve put it on. Amazing product

[@donnascott3786]

Goo Gone will take stickers off paper. After sticker is removed, dry residue with hair dryer. Will not leave a mark. I use this technique to remove price stickers from books.

[@cathifamjourney469]

Great trick! Now if i can just remember. Uggg if Jocelyn would have oly seen this before ripping off the sticker on that paper box.

[@heatherroberson8981]

WD-40 works also.

[@jhill8604]

Also, if there is a sticker like the gw one, take a hair dryer on high and direct it on the sticker, try to pull it off every little bit until it pulls off easily! I have used that trick on stickers that had been on for years!

[@liljen34]

Peanut butter works great for removing sticker residue with no damage, I just put it on and leave it for a little while and then wipe away and it’s safe on most things.

My hairdresser just texted me and asked if I wanted her to put together an at-home color/conditioner kit for me. She'll include instructions. Heck ya!!

[@samanthakitch4736]

my experience has been that Goo-Gone leaves plastic cloudy. I just use warm (not too hot) water and dish detergent. Soak it for a few minutes and rub with my fingers and then a sponge. usually comes off well.

[@barbarahughes620]

for goodwill sticker ,I put damp sponge on it and let it sit for a few minutes, comes right off

[@pamjohnson7105]

That handled piece that you say looks like a duck is a medication"steamer"vessel or to heat oil. The bottom is make for intense heat and that's why it is made with durable material. Also tape residue can be taken off with rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball. Learned that in the hospital cleaning equipment.

[@cathycasuccio3227]

Jocelyn I’ve used goo gone on plastic many times. it does not dull the plastic, it just takes the stickies away. it’s kind of slick and greasy - i think you would have success with it, especially since the canister set is a hard plastic. if you’re worried, try a little of it on a q tip in a tiny spot to test. but i think you’ll be happy with the result.

[@nancytim1486]

Find a product called UnDo. People who do paper crafts use it all of the time to get stickers off of paper. It doesn't leave any marks on paper. It dries perfectly clear. It will get your Goodwill stickers off of the boxes.

[@lisagrafton2529]

Your current color is my favorite on you. It's brown, but witht reddish highlights. It's not so drastically different from your natural color, so it's beautiful. Plus, adding the pink gives you a little fun color to play with! You're beautiful no matter what!

Eucalyptus oil gets sticky stuff off easily and won't damage the plastic. It smells great too. Love your hair.

[@lindabaglot4535]

Many years ago a boyfriend owned a new corvette every year a new one and what he used to detail his tough grease was White Spot restaurant oil based mayo ( he would ask for a side or two of mayo to go) and it works great and does not leave residue like goo gone. Now a day I use avacodo or olive oil mayo to detail my cars and clean stick residue off of stuff. I think could give it a try on your sticky tape residue Good luck

[@lanna7917]

Tape or sticker residue comes off easily with equal parts baking soda and any cooking oil. Non toxic and will not harm or scratch surfaces on plastics, acrylic, glass ect ...just in case you haven't been told by thousands yet.

[@Terry-me6ux]

To get stickies off the canisters, smear a bit of liquid dish soap in the marks, let set for a couple of minutes which will loosen it up enough for you to finger nail scrape it off, a paper towel or fabric dish cloth firmly wiped over the area will help with that, then you just rinse off and let dry. Works for me everytime, does well with ceramics too.

[@eoen42]

Hair dryer works pretty well to dry up the stickers from goodwill for me. and/or reactivate the glue so they come off cleanly.

[@rebahensley5323]

[@Sunnyreads8]

You could turn the room into an office with a bed for guests. A hide-a-bed, convert-a couch, futon, or Murphy bed are all options to disguise (or multi-purpose) a bed.

[@cathifamjourney469]

Would the polar bear be for baking soda to put in fridge or freezer? That's what I think .

[@lesahanners5057]

You're doing it girlfriend, you have made good progress and we can now see the floor almost entirely to the chair. YAY!!! It's kind of you to include us in this adventure, because I know for a fact you could have got it done in half the time, if you weren't bothering to share it with all of us. It's amazing the things one can accumulate over the years. What you are doing should be inspiring all of us to clean out that cluttered closet or cupboard and reclaim our space. The trouble I have at the moment is how to get rid of stuff I don't want?! I don't want to chuck it in the trash, but I'm not a seller on any format. I guess I will box up what I don't want and wait for life to get back to normal, hopefully soon, so I can donate it to charity. It was providential you getting the store when you did. It is going to be so much help to you because you will now have a space to get organized in, without filling up your home. Plus you have a place to take all the stuff you are cleaning out. I am looking forward to the chair removal, and how lovely that room is going to look when you have reached your goal. Don't be discouraged, you will get there, it's just a matter of one item at a time, one box, then two, and before you know it, it will be done. Will you show us the room when you decorate it? I think it would be so much fun to see how it turns out. I hope you have a God blessed day!

[@kathryndawley4306]

Use a hair dryer or heat gun and carefully scrape a little at a time on your label on the cardboard box to the kit.I use a small thin paint scraper. This also helps get tape off better without leaving as much residue. I’ve used goo gone on all kinds of items including plastic without a problem. I haven’t melted anything yet. Love watching you thrift. We don’t have the variety of thrift stores and our goodwill stores aren’t very good. Is there a place or book to go to so I can start learning some of the basics on the different glasses and markings?

I have a question. Why do you move stuff from the boxes to the shelf back to the boxes? It just seems like it would be quicker to move them directly to the box they would end up in, like resell, donate, etc. Just a thought. Of course you will have to show and tell every item!

[@michellemack6640]

Just wondering if you could make up lots of all the little things and sell them that way? Like a boho lot with your incense box and the India box and some other little bits and bobs? I've seen Goodwill online do auctions like this and they actually seem to be popular if you pop a couple of little desirables (vintage or name brand) in with the everyday. Just thought I'd throw the thought out there. FYI: I heard So. Carolina opened their Goodwill stores up, I'm almost ready to drive down from NH due to thrifting withdrawal, lol. Stay safe and thanks for the video.

[@Rollie-go]

your attitude re selling the leftovers is perfect, it doesn't matter what you get for it as the most valuable stuff is where you made your profit, so the rest is all gravy :)

[@andreamaurer3897]

To remove price tags, place the price tag over the steam of a tea kettle to warm up the glue and it should peel off easily. If the sticker is on paper, check it every few seconds, so you don't damage the surrounding paper. This opens old envelopes too. 🌻

Hey Jocelyn, I have been using good old fashioned isopropyl alcohol to remove the stickies from tape and those darn price stickers from the Goodwill. They come off cleaner with no damage to items.

For the tape residue removal: Get another piece of strong tape and stick it on the residue parts and then remove it fast. That should get rid most of it. The little rest kann be removed with any kind of oil and a soft towel. It's quick, easy and doesn't destroy anything.

[@tonyavroman567]

[@BumbleBee283]

A) I love KeraColor. I use platinum to brighten my grays. Beats trying to hide them. B) Have you ever tried WD-40 for removing ahesive residue? It works as well as Goo Gone, but isn't nearly as likely to damage the surface of plastics. Test in an inconspicuous place on your plastic items to be sure, but in my experience it is safer than Goo Gone most of the time and surprisingly effective at removing the glue goo.

[@hibuy100]

Debee Wallace olive oil is easier & cheaper. A gentle blast from a hair dryer removes any label or residue...I like to use an old credit card to scrape.

Nail polish remover on a makeup remover/cosmetic pad will zap that adhesive right off plastic without harming the plastic. It evaporates almost instantly.

I named my "shop" (I don't have a shop, or even an eBay store -- just an account) after my youngest son, which he loved.

But it grows so fast, the grey is almost showing already, this product could be helpful in keeping the very expensive color together for much longer. Thanks again!
