hi from austria! the maker of the vase should be "karl födinger" from gmunden (which is a a famous city for austrian pottery called "gmundner keramik"). the stamp stands for "werkstatt karl födinger" which was founded in 1931.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Thank you for this information!!

[@stanislavas1110]

Oh my, Gmunden is such a beautiful city 😍😍😍 How amazing that the vase might be coming from there.

[@maggiemix7424]

MY PARENTS ARE BOTH AUSTRIAN. MY MOTHERS SIDE HAS THE CREATIVITY AND MY DADS SIDE MUSIC. MY PARENTS RECEIVED SOME BEAUTIFUL GIFTS FROM COUSINS WHO REMAINED IN AUSTRIA, WHEN THEY GOT MARRIED IN THE U.S. IN 1936. BRASS CANDLESTICK HOLDERS AND SEVERAL PIECES OF POTTERY. ONE OF WHICH LOOKS IDENTICAL TO THE BLUE AND EARTH TONE VASE. I KNOW IT IS HARD TO JUDGE SIZE ON A SCREEN BUT I BELIEVE THEIRS WAS SMALLER. FOR THESE TREASURES TO TRAVEL ACROSS THE ATLANTIC AND ARRIVE IN MINNESOTA UNHARMED IS A BLESSING. THEY ARE STILL SURVIVING 87 YEARS LATER AND ARE MORE BEAUTIFUL THEN WHEN THEY WERE LOVINGLY HAND MADE. JUST THE FACT IT WAS 1936 IN A POST AND PREWAR TIME NOT ONLY IS REMARKABLE BUT ADDS TO THEIR BEAUTY. I WONDER HOW MUCH ART WAS LOST DURING THOSE TIMES, YET THE ARTISTS CONTINUED TO PUT OUT SUCH TALENT AND CREATIVITY IN THEIR WORK AND BEING UPLIFTING INSTEAD OF DARKNESS AND HATE. I'M GLAD I CAME FROM A STRONG FAMILY, CULTURES CREATIVITY AND COUNTRY. GOD BLESS THOSE WHO REMAIN IN THE HOMELAND AND CONTINUE DEVELOPING THEIR CRAFTS.

I’m 59 and live in Australia. I’ve been second hand shopping since I was 14. I hang out to watch Laura’s shop’s and advise. I think she’s brilliant on just knowing what works and noticing pieces that complement a corner that others would miss. I totally enjoy this channel and live through her eyes as she’s browsing. Thank you Laura x

[@julie-anngallagher8983]

I agree. I love op-shopping and since watching Laura's channel I have changed how I display my finds.

[@vintagegirl2739]

Hi Laura, I'm a reseller as well. I love Meguiar's cut polish for old plastics. You can find it in the automotive section. It's made to restore plastic automotive parts. There are several types. I bought the Ultimate Black plastic restorer. Don't worry, it's a white cream colored polish. 😉

[@susieq3765]

Laura, that Moroccan style container is such a gorgeous blue! If you decide not to use it for the salt, it would look awesome illuminated inside with a string of fairy lights or an LED candle. What a versatile find!

[@leftcoastrevivals]

That would look beautiful!

[@amyweaver7413]

Both your shopping and styling skills are just off the charts girl! Thanks for the fun video.😊❤️😊

[@creartdecopc]

Hello Laura , i discovered your videos last month, and now i am addicted to them. I am french, i live in pyrenees mountains (south of france) i love searching too for old and nice objects to decorate my home. In fact i admire all the set up you make, some things you pick i don t like but as you have incredible good taste and artistic way of decor then whatever i dont like become beautiful. Sorry for my poor english, i dont practise often. Thank you for sharing your passion, thank you for existing.

That Ikebana vase is really special!

[@patyeaman]

I am a new follower and am binge watching (and loving) all the old episodes. I wish there was a way to get Laura's videos in chronological order so that I can follow her adventures in the order that they happened.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Click on the Videos tab and scroll down to the bottom and work your way up 😁 They’re be in chronological order on that tab.

[@zsazsafabian3958]

My fav part of your thrifting is that you always show us how you design it! Really enjoy your channel it’s very relaxing to watch while I sip my coffee thank you.

[@nankue214]

I like that you buy what you love not just because you can make money on it. Although I love that you show how to identify a valuable item too. You seem to be bringing attention to buying used and the value in handmade items. That is a bonus for the people watching, vintage stores, artisans, as well as a bonus for the world. Love watching your videos!

[@elizabethwhitman5514]

Hi! Repairing and polishing plastic/lucite/plexiglass can be done with NOVUS products. If scratches are deeper, using a combination of wet/dry sandpaper, 800-1200 grit, can remove larger scratches and then use something like NOVUS to smooth and polish. I enjoy your channel 😊.

[@kimramsey2089]

I use to work in Optical Wholesale. Sooooo I would recommend that you get some Optical Wax to buff out scratches on your bowl.

Laura, I am so envious of your antique and thrift stores. I live on an eastern Great Lake city and we have nothing like those stores. But I so enjoy watching your channel!

[@karenpaxton]

I have a book for you, @laura. It is from 1975 and is about Turquoise and Indian jewellery. Its fabulous and you'll love it and get great use from it. I picked it up in a charity book sale in Cornwall whilst on holiday last year. I keep meaning to email you to find where to send it! 📚 Lovely finds as always.

Lovely finds! I so appreciate when you come back on with a mystery item that you have researched and share with us!

[@Snoops510]

You have inspired me to give thrifting a try. I've studied all of your videos and about ready to look for some treasures. My hubby says I'm obsessed. haha. Funny story, I watched a video of a man who goes to GW to find cheap parts for electronics, He videotaped a shelf that had all kinds of appliances on it, and I spied a Tangerine Blenko bottle...told him and he said he was going back. LOL. Hubs was impressed. TY!

[@heatherr1473]

Hi from Australia. One of my favourite books that I picked up second hand in Japan in a shop called 'Book-off' is "Popular Jewellery 1840-1940" by Roseanne Ettinger. It was published in the late 70s in the US.

[@cdavham]

Always a pleasure thrifting with you. Your styling is brilliant, and you inspire us all to look at things in a new way.

[@francesh3423]

Your great find reminds me, thanks to you, Laura, I thrifted a triangular shaped vintage Yamasan Ikebana vase! Love it 😀

[@deborahdoesvintage7513]

The artist of the panther on the mirror is Laurel Burch. I love your videos, they give me such inspiration in my own design!

[@shawnzimmerman699]

Laurel Birch 😳…it goes for good money…I do Believe Laura’s right, that could be a priceless piece it’s gorgeous

[@whatwouldtarado213]

It's actually by Laurel Art Street Club. "Laurel Street Art Club ("LSAC") was a Kentucky sub chapter S corporation that manufactured, framed and shipped inexpensive artwork for retail sale in department and furniture stores."

[@susanbarnettkiengsir]

Not a Laurel Burch print at all. Look at the signature again, you'll see you're mistaken.

[@daveandrade8189]

@@whatwouldtarado213 Most likely LSAC as you say. A panther piece similar to this sold on Ebay for 300. with 50. for shipping.

[@laurahopwood3332]

Thanks for sharing your shopping, staging and research with us. My favorite piece you picked up was the Austrian vase. The colors and design is phenomenal.

[@caseysimms661]

Novus lucite cleaner is really great! It’s a three step system with two different grits of polish and just a general cleaner for shine.

[@kathyfarrell4806]

“Popular Jewelry of the 60’s, 70’s & 80’s” by Roseann Ettinger is one of my favorite books on vintage jewelry. Having been published in 1997, the book itself is vintage 😅 I don’t rely on it so much for the value ranges attributed to each piece, but I do appreciate the large, semi-gloss pages featuring over 600 color photographs and 60 advertising pieces! She explains how fashion and even political trends were reflected in jewelry design through the 3 showcased decades. She also has a book covering 1840-1940 that I’d like to pick to pick up soon, and a few others that I am sure are just as fabulous! Blessings to you Laura! Thank you for sharing you talent and passion with us, I am inspired every time I watch one of your videos!! 🥰

Whitening toothpaste can be a good polish for plastics because it is a very mild abrasive. I haven’t used it on Lucite, but it would be worth a try since you probably already have some on hand.

That wall sculpture you have with the eye and birds in flight. There’s something similar in North Dakota as a giant metal sculpture at the beginning of the Enchanted Highway called Geese in Flight. It’s 110 ft high and 150 ft wide. We start our drive into Regent from there and there’s many more giant metal sculptures…all built by one man, Gary Greff.

Goodwill buys pallets of goods from California Targets.. they aren’t donating them so Goodwill has to get as much money from a pallet as possible.that’s why the furniture is kinda spendy
