Our incredible discovery - The last of the Victorian treasures! See what we make with our finds!

[@adrianyates9521]

The one thing that makes these videos so interesting and enjoyable is the fact that you've included the history of your finds. Keep making these videos and I look forward to watching them as you post them.

[@jamiemarie4645]

You should sell mystery candles! How fun would that be?! You could hide one of your found treasures inside the candles you make and sell them as mystery candles! Love your videos and art work!

"I have this woman's head!!!!" lmao

Lol! x

I think the red bar you've found is actually a bar of sealing wax, that was used to seal letters and parcels. It was melt on the paper and sometimes a seal was pressed on it.

[@lorrainewhitlock5377]

When both of you said goodbye I just had to smile. And I said God bless them thank you both beautiful ladies I enjoy your videos

[@cedarwoman2]

Young lady you are not odd at all. You are a beautiful inspiration. Keep saving history as much as you can. Here's to many more wonderful adventures.

[@rodwhite9737]

It's pretty cool you found a bottle from here in Canada. I just wish it was from Newfoundland. Your videos are so relaxing with the beautiful music. I loved the guitar work in that one! The ink jars and candles turned out amazing! I like when the wax runs down the bottles as well. I also love it when you do the history of the companies that made those old bottles. You lovely ladies are an inspiration to all. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.

[@sm3296]

Oh how lovely the glass is when cleaned up. Especially the bubbly wavy glass. The candlestick and candles are wonderful and all the finishing touches of packaging, labels etc is too. You and your mom sure are a great team together. I love that.

[@claudiaparody6566]

Thank you for showing us all the beautiful things you find!. I love your voice!, Is very sweet!.

The amount of manhrs to clean the bottles but the outcome is priceless. Hats off to you ladies.

[@codycoonce1975]

I absolutely love the relationship that you two have. Best friends and family. That's what family is about. Keep up with the videos. You'll be a big name on KZbin in no time.

[@rodwhite9737]

They already are!!!

[@rodwhite9737]

@sofaking wetoddid It's not the point of the 13K subs. It's the point of how little time they've done it. I like these ladies and the content they show on their channel. I hope some day they get their 100K plaque and see where it goes from there.

[@sm3296]

It doesn't surprise me a bit that you're wearing your grandads coat and it's very fetching on you too. So fun to watch you and how excited you are. My days on the Fife coast were doing much the same thing and I know everyone thought me daft but I loved touching all the dishes and bits of things that others touched before me, long before me. Lovely wee finds and love that you use them to create for your etsy shop.

[@antoncolbo]

Fascinating that so much buried information can still be retieved from our recent past and brought back to life

You're not strange, I grew up doing this and still love it. I love watching your channel, your voice is very sweet and soothing by the way. I can't video my voice because I find it irritating to listen too lol

OMG!!! I was late in finding this channel and I am so disappointed to have missed all the beautiful things they have made. 😥

That cream jar with the lady on is gorgeous

[@bonniebonkers4779]

It's wonderful to see a young lady who isn't afraid to get her hands dirty. I'm loving how you are able to re-purpose things. With everything made of plastic now its nice to see you saving glass bottles and pottery. Who knows how long those places will be around for anyone to dig. :)

That old jar lid is from the same area my ancestors came from! They started in Moravia and made their way to Bohemia as time went on. It's amazing to think you're holding something that was made during the portion of history my family was there. I love these videos and how you always find bits of information to share. It's easy to get lost in.

[@NorthernMudlarks]

Glad you like them! xx

[@johnnabuzby6103]

@@NorthernMudlarks Hi Gail and Alex. I was especially interested in the history behind the green bottle from the Messrs Burroughs and Wellcome. It so happens that the Burroughs-Wellcome pharmaceutical company had [or still has] a headquarters located in Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill [otherwise also known as the RTP [Research Triangle Park] in my home state of North Carolina, which also has a town called Snow Hill. Funny how things circle around and connect with each other in unexpected ways. That cream jar was a great little find, Alex, it's so pretty! It's a pity that the dump site got filled in and you can no longer dig there. The thought of all those treasures that got destroyed in the filling in process is heartbreaking. Great find on the whole Codd bottle! That "medicine" bottle had a very disturbing history behind it. Imagine taking something that's supposed to make you feel better, only for it to be poisoning you instead. Insane! P.S. I'm so happy to have found your channel, it's so relaxing, wholesome and refreshing in the midst of all the madness that's going on in the world these days. I'm gobsmacked that you found, on different occasions, the head of the figurine, and then part of the body that goes with it. What are the chances of that? Astronomical.

Love what you did with the ink wells.

[@anthonybaransky137]

I was thinking... If u get yourself a high speed rotary tool with diamond tips ( u can get inexpensive ones) you can cut and engrave glass. So... If u find a nice bottle bottom but top is broken off u can cut it even and upcycle it😊 plus the cut edge can be heated with a propane torch til it glows and that process removes sharp egdges. Hope I helped😊❤😊

[@leemccorriston2170]

I'm from S.wales in the United Kingdom and back in the 1977 I was 7yrs old and we used find loads of brilliant treasures like these in a huge rubbish dump right next to my small estate and there would be lots of bottles with a marble in the neck of the bottle we used to call "Alley Bottles". We would dig them up and leave them there, OMG how stupid and ignorant were we totally love your videos especially Mother and Daughter sharing the same awesome hobby. Old treasures big or small is a part of our history and heritage, keep digging as long as you can love the channel.

[@NorthernMudlarks]

Thank you so much! Sounds like you had a lot of fun as a child with the bottles! xx

[@leemccorriston2170]

@@NorthernMudlarks Yes, yes i did quite alot of fun at 7yrs old I was into fossils and that place had a abundance of large sea snails (I think), dragonflies and trees a old gentleman used to show us the safe and dangerous area's because it was a very old coal mine by a river and a very old rubbish tip, all that glorious treasure, history and my god the amount cockle shells was unbelievable. What i can remember you two ladies would have been knee deep in bottles of all sorts the place isn't completely covered but saying that there's a couple of places I know of which lightly covered. But watching you two ladies dig, does bring back good old memories and i do miss that piece of youth. So ladies don't stop digging and i love the channel awesome work.

the huge jar bottom can also be a round window piece these originate in the 15th century but in the 19th century, this type of lead and glass type of making windows had a bit of a revival because going medieval was all the rage in the 1860s to 80s.

Wonderful what you have done with the ink bottles. I, on the other hand, had a different idea for those bottles. To find the recipe for the ink of that period and make it to fill the bottles and cork them and to sell them along with actual goose or swan quill pens. And of course, to have the wonderful labels on them. Maybe you can find more of those and make the ink for them?

Love watching your artistic skills making beautiful and useful things, this time candles and candle holders. The labels are beautiful too. As a child we made sand candies at the beach. As it set we would swim in the ocean. Then eat our supper!

Hi from Morocco; I liked your idea about ink bottle and candles, it's wonderful !! That reminds me the paraphernalia of the sufi folower of the "medersa bou inania" ( 14 th centry traditional school); it included : a decorated ceramic ink bottle surrounded by small wells used as reed pens holder, several beeswax candles, paper rolls and a water crock. They used to make ink by adding soot (got from burned raw wool) to the gum arabic and warm water. Thanks for sharing and happy year.🤗🤗

[@TheGreatest1974]

Just a bit of advice. Those short white glazed bottles you found so many of are actually furniture polish bottles, or black polish bottles for blacking a fireplace etc. If you find any with a pouring lip then they are ink bottles! The Andrew eckfords ginger beer bottle is a quite rare bottle, very hard to come by. You are very lucky to have that dump! Best regards, Brian.

There's something about old bottles and crocks. They were just so well made and detailed.
