[@LeaC-lw8xl]

I am not a flowery girl but the yellow flowers did make that jar pop. My vote is to keep it the way it is. Awesome video.

[@CarolA-ww5rk]

I'm not a shopper, at 73 yrs old I'm done with that, but I really like watching your videos. 💜 💜 From Napa, California

[@leaannmcclain6425]

Team flowers! Turn it when you want a change 😊

[@LadyDiVintage1953]

Yes.

[@lizmoyer7448]

The flower side makes the arrangement of items appear organic. I think keeping the flowers on it whoever buys it can have more options to use it in different ways.

[@Lomie32]

I agree, it looks less curated more spontaneous

[@terrytt2932]

As a potter, I must warn you about crazing. It is actually a 'break' in the glaze. If you put wet food, greasy food (i.e., dips) in the serving pieces, it will seep into the piece and stain. You need to be careful with crazed pieces The FABULOUS fabric window coverings are custom so yes, handmade, not "homemade". LOVE today's finds!! edit - I think the flowers on the pretty pedestal jar is a decal or transfer. If you scrub or use a chemical to remove it, it could damage the surface.

[@peggypeter8070]

Good to know, thanks!

[@NewChapterVintage]

Yes, I knew there was something I meant to comment on! Crazing = not food safe. Decor only.

[@vlrissolo]

I always wondered about that crazing. Thank you

[@carollangstaff5339]

About 13 minutes in - Laura, I hope that the idea you released into the Universe, about the 1970's Mikasa Dahlia set, comes to fruition! You deserve to have your name out there as the incredible stylist that you are! Any TV or movie set would be lucky to tap your talents! I look forward to seeing your name in the credits! Then, I can tell everyone that, "Hey, I know that girl!" So, here I am, adding my positive energy to yours as your ideas seek their home amongst the ☆stars☆

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Hehe thanks so much!! 😆❤️

[@deidrecalabro5725]

Oh yeah! they scream use me on a Brady table❇️❇️❇️❇️

[@lindaopperthauser2284]

Or that 70's show❤

[@katharinewilliamson2478]

Disillusionment warning : I once talked to a woman in a thrift store who was a “picker”/ “prop sourcer” for movies and tv , and I told her I thought that would be such a fun job. She said it is …except when you need to find 70s and all you find is 90s…😮. Maybe the way around that is to buy everything from every era!😁

[@margaretdraper4327]

Hey Laura, I think you should keep the flowers on the apothecary jar. There is something special about keeping an object as is, even if it is not your aesthetic. Preserving an object so it can be enjoyed and admired by future owners who may love the flowers. You can enjoy it as a plain jar, just by turning it around like you did in your video.

[@JulieaBennett]

I'm from Victoria (Australia). I've just come across your channel and have binge-watched your videos going back several years. I used to go on "op-shop crawls" with my friends (an "op-shop", short for 'Opportunity Shop" is what we call thrift stores here). And the use of the word "crawl" is usually used in the context of "going on a pub crawl" which means spending the day driving from bar to bar with friends (never of any interest to me!) Your videos inspired me to go op-shopping by myself this afternoon. I collect Mid-Century fine china (and crystal) as well as handcrafted pottery. I also keep an eye out for craft resources too. I hit 4 local stores today and 3 of them had a 50% off everything sale, due to the End-of-Financial-Year (Australia's EOFY is on 30th June). I've bought some beautiful china as well as hand-crafted items for so little, it's ridiculous! E.g., I bought a large Alfred Meakin Fine Bone China lidded vegetable serving dish for 7.50 AUD (4.98 USD), a lathed wooden salad bowl with matching salad servers for $3 AUD (1.98 USD) that looks like it's never been used and a handcrafted pottery platter decorated with abstract magnolias (so beautiful it could be hung as wall-art) for $1 AU (66 cents in USD). It seems to have had a paper ID on the back which has been removed, so I'll try to find another online.) I really enjoyed myself; thanks for inspiring me to get back into "op-shopping"! I'm going to hit the Salvo's Op Shop -plus some others - tomorrow!

[@transamgal9]

Every night we ate dinner on that Mikasa set! Seeing them brought back so many wonderful dinner time memories. I could even smell moms mashed potatoes and gravy...😂😂😂❤❤❤

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Awwww that’s so special!!

[@joconnor2717]

The bar cart I believe is a tea trolley

[@frustratedlurker9525]

My only complaint today is that I am out of Laura videos to watch! You are my absolute guilty pleasure. Thank you for being you! You are my best friend out thrifting with me (in my mind) lol 💙

[@charlenegirouard901]

In that setting with all the wood I like the flowers best

[@janedeclarico5920]

Quite surprised that I loved the flowers. They simply popped in a good way when you styled them up. Plus they are well executed!

[@rebeccafansler5148]

Laura, you are so positive and full of joy! Pair that with your knowledge of vintage items, and you've made such a must see channel! I love this current series!

[@carollangstaff5339]

Girl, I cannot say it enough; I ABSOLUTELY LOVE ❤YOUR STYLE!

[@victoriaredington8498]

You are by far the most creative stylist of the items you find. Now when I thrift, I look at items and think of the ways it can be styled up. You are an inspiration.

[@keener57]

This series is amazing. Your videos are perfectly paced with stellar content balance. Your demeanour is positive and relaxing. Delightful! Wishing you continued success.

[@Signe-p3m]

You found such great stuff again today. I like your filming pace, giving us a chance to really look with you. Your editing techniques are great too - The car commentary and clips of the items styled keep things interesting and varied. You're a pro.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Thanks so much!! ❤️

[@gwenlauer-loop8696]

Love the bamboo shade with the calla lily lamp, you should keep.

[@BrydiHeebner]

I like the " Ying Yang" aspect of the Apothecary Jar. Just show the flower side in the height of the summer.

[@weedsnwildflowers]

Love it with the flowers.

[@chrissieTheChris]

I think the pitcher with the flowers on it it's rather German; with typical German flowers as edelweiss, gentian, cowslip and lady's slipper orchid. Flowers from the Alps, so it could be South German or possibly Austrian or Swiss. Greetings from Germany! ;)

[@Valere-md7gi]

Hi Laura, been having fun thrifting again. Thought you would enjoy a little chuckle. When I go through the glassware aisle, when I spot a couple of glasses that are super cute, I look to see if there are more that got separated and I join them together.

[@TheQuiwilinlisolet]

The Hans am Ende print depicts a peat moss ship on the Hamme river north of Bremen (Northern Germany), The river flows through the Teufelsmoor (Devil's moor) where people cut peat moss for burning and for fertilizing, and transported it by water way.

[@DonnaCooper-rh8ey]

I like the jar without the flowers. It looks more high end, classier

[@dianejohnson9904]

The black dog, am I the only one who would probably touch up the tiny chip with a magic marker or something? 😁 That green Mikasa set. I was so happy you bought it! It is gorgeous and such a rarety of being in pristine condition.

[@mariaroldan4200]

I use sharpie for touch ups, even on winter jackets!

[@penelopesparrow]

Never underestimate the touch of a Sharpie! 😉

[@WAK387]

Or black nail polish so the sheen matches.

[@LFetterman7903]

Yep, magic markers! You often can’t tell it’s been altered with a VERY CLOSE inspection!

[@cyndeewenzel6439]

The Mikasa plate set is amazing!

[@suzannepayne8934]

Just found your channel today. I live in the UP of MI. Very small town. My only GW is 40mi away. I love shopping GW but mine is overall too high priced. My health isn't the greatest at the moment so thrifting with you today has been a blessing . Thank you for taking me shopping with you.

[@Jacquelyn-mn1bn]

Apothecary Jar: I love both. Depending on what you’re displaying it with, both ways would work. Just put the flower in the back when you don’t want to use it. 😊

[@noahs4058]

She pronounced it wrong, I had to rewind to be sure I didn't misheard her. I love Laura, she's a gem

[@ja86sa]

Yes to flowers it looks beautiful staged ❤

[@blaqfish]

You would be an ideal picker for a television show and you have the most kind personality and grace to mingle your way up...said anyone that watched your channel 😊

[@greenbamboo4264]

Holy cow Laura, you really hit the jackpot on this trip. It’s amazing watching the way you hunt for these incredible pieces that everyone before you seemed to have missed.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

So many people just look right passed them! 🙌

[@elizabethtassonecuprunneth7882]

Brown lampshade on calla lily lamp was gorgeous combo

[@valerienelson3296]

I would keep the flowers and not risk damage. The all white looks elegant & classy. Flowers are soft & romantic. You can show either side & have the best of both worlds. ❤

[@patriciacori224]

I enjoy your new format where you show the styling as you go along...

[@pattygibson3982]

Your Goodwill stores in the PNW have beautiful items that I don’t see in the Goodwill stores on the east coast. Awesome find on the Italian lamp, I was thrilled for you! Loving this series.

[@Carolehodgson0758]

I love the flower on the jar.

[@jeannenfrachiseur7509]

Oh my goodness please leave the flowers it's so beautiful ❤️

[@BeverlyDuke-z5f]

Darker shade for the calla lily lamp definitely! PS they are my favorite flower.

[@carollangstaff5339]

5 minutes in, I say, "Yes, Yes, Yes!" to the flowers on the milk white pedestal container! They are lovely!

[@joansheppard6576]

I was married in 1976 and had sunflower stoneware from Mikasa that I loved.

[@joanfels6641]

The pink rosebud vase looks like it would match perfectly with the Franciscan Dessert Rose dishes.

[@patbrady9531]

I am always amazed at the selection at your local Goodwill stores. I am an old thrifter, having lived in NY, MD, and now FL. I don't ever remember seeing such goodies. I'm thrifting vicariously through you!

[@lindafrance9192]

My local GW stores in the SF east Bay Area don’t have the quality and quantity of items that I always see in the Oregon and Washington stores Laura shops in.

[@amandaspence1971]

Loving your outfit today, with the black and white shirt and coordinating earrings! Oh, and can’t forget the awesome hat! You always look great, but I especially like this one. 😊. As for the curtains, I think it would make a beautiful garment of some kind. A kimono jacket would have simple lines and would look nice with black pants or a skirt. Good luck if you decide to go for it!

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Thank you! 😄

[@isoldelippens6670]

Yeah I like it too a lot.

[@carollangstaff5339]

I agree with you about Laura's incredible style! Also, your eyeliner really makes your eyes pop! I mean that in a good way!

[@joycefloyd500]

Love the hat!

[@debbee3319]

It caught my eye too!🤗

[@nansea6318]

Flower side in my home cause those are the flowers in my yard. That crystal decanter is gorgeous. Love the blue vase. ❤

[@valerienelson3296]

That gabric would make great pillows for the right decor.

[@mardg3680]

I ❤how you hold your pen. It’s darling. So satisfying seeing you cross stores off your list and still knowing there are more thrift experiences to come.

[@lyndaparker2969]

Laura, we are all having a blast with you!! Even days I can not go out and shop you bring me through...LOL

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Yay!! Thanks so much for joining me 🥰

[@christypanchot6538]

I love the flowers on the milky white jar!!!

[@marie-claudevanhecke5151]

You always look so cute. Definitely prefer without the flowers!

[@ThePianoreed]

I like the flowers showing on the jar

[@bethb7965]

I love that fabric!! I say find the time to use it for a project.❤ I 'm a sewer and quilter.I liked the darker shade for the small white lamp.

[@leahworks4242]

Loving your videos with hubby! You’re both very awesome and inspiring people.

[@cynthiatucker7040]

The beautiful curtions would make great decorative pillow covers.

[@carolyna.2527]

Flowers facing during the spring/summer months and plain white during fall/winter. Great finds!

[@laurettaatkins8425]

Love the flowers on the jar!

[@Dlinnnnnnnnaa]

With the flower looks great

[@ryannecomea-callin2560]

Glass pickups at 22:55 are giving me CHALET GLASS FROM CANADA Vibes, esp the bases; really high-quality mid-century Art Glass line, Made in Canada, designed by Italian Glass masters employed by the Chalet Glass factory in Canada...it is great stuff in its own right, and gets mis-attributed all the time. Great shopping trip! I am having a blast riding along ! Thank you! ❤

[@kathymcd6805]

Laura, I live in Roseville CA. Im 76 and each week try to take a car load to our HOSPICE GOODWILL. Each time I go I see a lot of my age people donating also. The Sutter Hospice is located very close to Del Web over 55 Subdivision. You may have very good luck if you can fine HOSPICE GOODWILL in your travels. Good hunting, Kathy

[@dawnbeaird5183]

Yeah #5 here we go! I'm having so much fun watching this series! 💓

[@colletteleblanc8678]

Make yourself a long vest using the gorgeous fabric - and a matching bag with cognac suede accents ❤

[@resurrectedwreck]

I am LOVING this series! I've become an avid thrifter in the past year or so, and I've developed a great love of studio pottery. Today I found a gorgeous ikebana vase, the first one I've found in the wild. The cashier was very intrigued by it, so I got to tell her what I've learned about them.

[@BeckyM154]

Wow! That lamp was a great find!

[@angelahunt9865]

Thank you, Laura for bringing us along on your Goodwill tour. This has been such an amazing and fun series to watch.

[@michellehowell3726]

With the flowers 🌻🌻🌻

[@laurab8450]

Wow, another Laura visits Goodwill episode! Couldn't get here fast enough...what a wonderful haul! So thankful Jesse suggested this series!

[@vickinoeske1154]

Watching these Friday Good Will thrift shopping episodes has become one of my favorite parts of Fridays.😊❤❤

[@kimfranzen916]

I like the flowers. Adds more color.

[@BeverlyDuke-z5f]

flowers on the vase. leave them is my vote.

[@julieboyd8180]

Love the fabric! You could turn those curtains into throw pillows real easy! Wish my local thrift stores were as good as yours!

[@alexandracummings2852]

No to the yellow flowers...kinda tacky. Your instinct was spot on.

[@bronwenmcleod5897]

Love the glass goblets. You got a good score there! Keep on thrifting ❤

[@cindylucero7567]

Love it with the flowers 💐

[@leighpage2591]

Loving the GW tour!!❤

[@rockreader4298]

Laura, all I can say about your impeccable buys in this episode is "So Cool!'. I'm enjoying every episode of this series, don't want it to end. I like the jar very much, both ways, with flowers and without. I really think the finish would be destroyed if you try to remove the flowers and they are pretty anyway. : )

[@aliciadavies2547]

I love everything you picked up today!!!

[@luciaconnor3427]

Always look forward to your videos Laura!

[@621danajo]

I am loving this series... Your outfit on this video is SSSOOOOOOO cute!!!!

[@HelloWandererAustralia]

Another HUGE episode! You are really spoiling us! Thanks and I love it ALL!❤❤

[@debbieheinowski]

Definitely with the flowers, they make the wooden pieces pop

[@susankolpack7044]

I love your glass fines, especially the Marano and the porcelain. You’re a good will to work is so fun and exciting.

[@KathyDavenport-i3u]

That fabric would make great pillows! Love the daisy's on the jar. I loved the blue glass item you put back but everything was lovely 😍

[@SharonNickson]

Definitely with the flowers showing 😀

[@annstorms420]

Ditch the flowers!

[@leslieking6259]

So excited to get the notification! I have really enjoyed this series.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Yay!!!

[@sarahcarotabrand8943]

Huge fan of the Hamsa 🪬 hand collection! Beauties!

[@clairevagonis1873]

Whenever I’ve bought dishes, I either give away the cups or sauces or don’t need them because I never use them. We always have coffee and drink, but that’s how it is.

[@ABlagaya]

Hi, Laura, you have admirers from Russia. And I wanted to say, that the bowl with the lid (with birds)is Russian, a well known ceramic plant, 1970s, Konakovo, ZIK

[@surpriseitsus9622]

Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 💪

[@docreed816]

I love your KZbin series. I watched it all day. I am hooked. I love your style with clothing and jewelry and all your hats. I love your choices of vintage. Keep them coming. I love it.

[@lilirehak5569]

Amazing finds! One of the Best videos yet. Can't believe the abundant quality of the Goodwills on your "left coast". xx

[@DawnANDERSON-bx9kf]

Wow, congrats on the lamp find. What a great day. Happy Hunting.

[@velvetindigonight]

My God this could have been two episodes at the end of the Battleground Chapter I'm overwhelmed by all your amazing finds just so much 'lovely stuff' for you and so lovely seeing and experiencing all your Joy! I'm going to come back for Part 2 later :) Big Thank you as ever.................... :)

[@StacyNeal-w4o]

I’m glad you got all those dishes so they will stay together.

[@ArtistNikki2024]

When I had my vintage and antique shop in Connecticut back in 2002 and 2003 I also had a website and when I moved to Los Angeles I realized that I had quite a few of my pieces sold to Studios and I was also dealing with a couple of thrift stores there and when I finally moved there I realized where they were located and it was such a cool thing to see! I believe one of my 1950s cocktail dresses was worn in a Drew Barrymore movie. Called Riding in Cars with Boys

[@kimkerley4218]

Thank Jesus you’ve found some real nice things! ❤❤❤

[@RobertaFry]

I like it better with the flowers

[@deborahbranum8085]

Center of the flowers on the jar matched the wood around it so good I wouldn't remove the flowers. If you want to keep the jar turned the flowers to the back just incase you want to resale it later.

[@GillMarx123]

There must be a film industry association you could contact. Lots of films made in British Columbia. Set designers would love the Dahlia print Mikala. When I was in Montreal there was a vintage store where I bought some jewelry and the woman who owned it was a set designer and grabbed the vintage stuff they get rid of once the film is done. So much potential there!

[@GillMarx123]

*Mikasa!

[@teresasmith533]

I liked the flower on white dish, it added color.

[@katem3961]

So many furnominal finds, Laura. I agree that it looked like someone had donated from an estate at the first Goodwill. I love the idea of you being a buyer for TV/movie sets. You would be brilliant at it! I really love this series, Jesse. You are a man of super ideas💡 Thank you, Laura, for taking us along 🩵💙💜

[@sherryking6282]

Whoa, I also love Paul McCobb furniture and didn't know he had dishwear design. Thanks Laura!

[@iainmccree6270]

love the blue one you put back
