Vintage Trim HAUL from the Estate Sale Buyout

[@StephanieCanada]

Thank you for watching folks! There is SO MUCH trim that it wasn't possible to get it all listed for the launch of the video. But keep checking back at my website as they go live over the next few days. backroomfinds.com

[@joycleckley2881]

Disease and germs do not keep house on inanimate objects. They need a living, breathing host in which to attach spread. Mold and mildew will cause problems in we humans. 35 years of nursing in ICU, Recovery and other areas of experience to qualify to make this statement. The past recent years have spread many false medical theories which have long been disproven.

[@thecostumelady123]

@StephanieCanada Do you have a twin? A sister? If not I have found your doppelganger. Let me know! 😀

[@cherylrosbak4092]

Is there a way I can reserve some yards until the stuff I really want comes up? Or do I have to take my chances?

[@sandihj]

Those weird things that are fastened on both sides are fringe - one of the sides will be chain stitches you can just pull away. It keeps the fringes intact before it is sold, and is easier to sew on with them held in place. And the foldover ones are for binding edges. I’d be willing to bet that Chanel style suits or jackets were a speciality. In fact, a lot of the trims lend themselves to that style.

[@RedPandaHomebody]

Glad to find out I was thinking correctly re: the fringe!

[@Christine-vu4ej]

My mum made me a quilted jacket, with a maderin collar and frog closures in the 1980s (fabric was sold quilted), which had simular fold over binding around the edges. I loved that jacket and was sad when I gre taller & it no longer fitted me 😍

[@lifeofjoy9404]

Yes!!🤓

[@kahtycox8689]

I have to give you so much respect for not trying to sell any molded or rotting trim. Thank you

[@anam123]

Im allergic to black mold so i cant normally trust vintage sellers :( so this makes me happy

[@TrishaVincent8057]

​@@anam123I realize this is 8 months later. I am allergic to black mold, too. I have bought patterns and fabric from Stephanie. There has never been any mold.

[@anam123]

@@TrishaVincent8057 totally. Friends have bought from her and are more than happy... I live in Europe so taxes and shipping are sucky. But I've bought vintage before in UK and Germany and been ill after opening the package. If I live in north America again, I'll be buying so much from Stephanie

[@joycleckley2881]

Those blue carded imported laces which are Valennciene 100% cotton from France that were heavily startched to hold shape while on store shelf. Those laces will wash snow white, the cream is called ecru. I smocked and made French Handmade clothes by machine. As hand sewing those love clothes take an extremely long time to create and make. This type trims make my heart go pitter patter. Many of those are from last few decades, even the 1960s, 1970's and so on. Enjoyed this immensely.

[@KlingonPrincess]

Do you happen to know the name of the smocking magazine that is no longer in publication? I've been wracking my brain over it. Maybe "Sew Beautiful?"

[@amandaglidewell8451]

SHUSH!!! Don’t make things more complicated for her!!!!! She does not need to know which ones are imported maline and Valenciennes. Shsss!!!!!!

[@hyacinth4368]

Sew Beautiful, Martha Pullen's magazine. Also, I loved the Australian Smocking magazines. I was also wondering if she has any of the French maline laces.

[@KlingonPrincess]

@@hyacinth4368 thank you! I guess I did remember. Wish I hadn't decluttered the issues I had

[@Azriel1066]

Hi Stephanie. The wool items that are pre-folded in half are edge bindings, especially for other woollen things that might drag on the ground (like a long skirt) or see very heavy wear. The idea was that the trim was much cheaper to replace over time than a whole wool garment.

[@gingerdean1521]

I agree with this

[@alisachristensen8105]

A lot of the stained lace and trims are great for junk journals. Crafters actually coffee or tea dye their laces.

[@alisachristensen8105]

I missed out on the black lace, 😢

[@AllTheHappySquirrels]

Fish out of water, wanting all the natural fiber trims: My heart! 😍 My wallet: Girl, you need to calm your ass down and put me down. You have too much fabric right now and no projects in mind for any of those trims. Get yourself together! 😅

[@damelanieg]

You didn't ask for this but it might save your back: those bins are big, great, and stackable, but to make them easier to move around, we used big washers and screws and attached one to a furniture dolly (like 10 bucks at harbor freight). At that point, we were able to stack them 4-5 high (ceiling height to be considered). We're renovating, and this made it so much easier to move things around as we worked, and would work great in a storage unit. I did number the crates and the plan was to make a list of what is in what, but, because i'm human, that has never happened, but I still believe it's a good idea!

[@KT_37]

Stephanie, the reason some of the trims that are supposed to be cotton and are super scratchy is because they may have been starched. Also, thank you so much for throwing out items with mold. I am alergic to mold and it causes my face to swell up! I had a severe allergic reaction trying on my wedding dress because of mold. The dress appeared to have zero issues but it had been near mold because I ended up in the emergency room with my face swollen out to the tip of my nose and barely able to breathe. So mold is not something to mess with so please wear a mask.

[@k.s.k.7721]

Love all the trims! Just a hint to anyone who has a need to wash theirs - wash by HAND, in cold water - as quickly as possible. I have a huge quantity of laces from early 1930's that I successfully washed with no damage whatsoever. Swish in cool/cold water with a GENTLE soap - not Woolite. You can use a soft toothbrush on small dirty spots. Rinse in more cool/cold water and lay at length on a fluffy towel, roll up, then wring it out. Lay laces flat to dry and iron as needed on low. Obviously, do not mix colors while washing, and it's best to do one piece/pattern at a time, even if they are the same color. If they are over a yard in length, you run the risk of tangling them.

[@sparkyal43]

Soak or Eucalan are good soaps for delicate trims.

[@deejustdee1234]

The random loops sewn together (ex. 41:03) is fringe. You remove the two rows of seemingly random stitching at the bottom when your garment is finished. It's stitched like that to prevent it getting all tangled up. Source: Have made numerous costumes with fringe. PS: Stephanie, I love your personality and what you have made of this channel and your store!

[@bobyjonhson3665]

I suspect the Flair "lace" in multiple colors is Hem tape. And as someone who wore a Gunne Sax wedding dress in the late 70's: "Gunne Sax, Gunne Sax, Gunne Sax....." *epic eyeroll*

[@ritaadams8379]

That's what I thought, too.

[@heidibrandenburg95]

Agree

[@deborahwilkins3786]

Being old gives some advantages. I know what some of this is! Those 1/2 - 3/4 inch wide stretch lace (red, white and pink out of the sealed bag, blue and black so far when I stopped the video to type) were a 1970s favourite for hem binding. Sew it to your hem by machine, turn it up and hand stitch it down. Not meant to go on the outside of your garment. But this is 2024 so, hey, you do you. Oh! I am back with more comment. The daisies! I had a little emerald green velveteen dress with round collar trimmed with those daisies when I was about eight (we won't say how long ago)! Nostalgia. The wool black and white and burnt orange go on a Chanel tweed jacket. The foldover wool is edging for jackets and coats so you don't need a facing on a thick tweed. I guess the cotton is the same. The black and white polyester satin fold-over is for the edge of a tulle crinoline to keep it from being scratchy oat the edge.

[@ReginaDailey]

That red lace is hem tape. It used when you have a bulky fabric like wool hounds tooth that is too bulky to make a nice flat hem. The pink stretchy lace that looks like the red is hem tape too. The navy and black too.

[@charlesstewart6191]

The unidentified green yarn stuf is "Fringe" Curtains, Pillows, Upholstery, Costumes etc.

[@veronikaschroeder-hohenwar7403]

Hello Hello! This was so so exiting, I am addicted to your videos. A few years ago a (then) 88 years old nice lady in my neighbourhood reached out to me, because she knew I am into vintage stuff an sewing and told me that her whole attic was full of old fabric, trim, lace, wool, buttons ... etc, asked me if I would like to go through all of her belongings ( her mother ran a shop in the 50's and 60's). There were so many discolored and dameged items, but I was like unable to throw any of those precious things aways and i soaked the lace in natron powder and got rid of the starched itchiness and sold almost everything so that she could remodel her backyard with the money. Enjoyed the process and progress so much and kept a few things for my sewing projects. It was like a time travel! My granny used to buy her supplies there! Maybe the velvety creme thing (at 34 mins) is an trim for piping cushions. Apple vinegar may solve the discoloration problem. Thank your for this wild ride❤ Veronika from Germany

[@annedacosta2864]

Good morning 😊, Paper crafters love using discolored trim. Fun to use in creating junk journals. Many crafters actually coffee dye their trim to make it look aged 😊 But I do agree with your feelings about tossing the mold 👍

[@meespatti693]

The Velvet ribbon, in nylon fiber is indestructable. It's 3.50 per yard on the mood website. Love to see so much of it. Crush proof means this ribbon wil nver look like crushed velvet, even when washed.

[@terrysuemakesvideosforyou9940]

Thanks for this fun video!! The flair poly flat lace in the different colors was something we used to sew on seams and to make our hems look fancy inside the garment . You could buy it in the small packages like the seam binding . You were supposed to cut or remove the white stitching on the yarn like trim to make the tassel/ fringe to sew on the edges of sleeves, hems, or pillows, or other stuff. Decorate everything! Sewing in the 1960's and 1970's! We were very extra!

[@cinemaocd1752]

I remember little tiny packs of ric rac and binding at the fabric store in my childhood in the 70s. The binding is used to edge things, making a smooth finished edge, often in a contrast color. It's cracking me up that the vest she's wearing in the video, probably has velvet binding all the way around to make the edging. :D

[@PrismverseTales]

I don't know anything about sewing, but your channel is so delightful. Love all the trims and patterns and fabrics. Very relaxing at the end of a winter day. thank you, you gem!

[@ruthkirkparick3535]

To anyone interested and in case you didn't know, you can burn test fibres to determine if they are natural (wool, cotton, linen, silk) or synthetic (nylon, polyester, viscose, etc.). Put a little sample on a heat proof plate and touch it with a burning match. If it melts or bubbles it is completely synthetic. If it does chars or becomes ash, it is most likely all natural. Just keep your sample very small as fume from synthetics may be unpleasant.

[@tammyellison735]

The fold-over trim is something I used in the 70s. It at that time was used over the edge of things like a jacket. I made a bue cordory blazer and used that trim over the edge. I loved it.

[@obsidianrosestudio2663]

I love trims especially insertion laces. I dream of all the blouses I would use them on. A lot of them with scallop and straight edges on both sides can be considered an insertion lace because it can be ‘inserted’ into a garment not just the ones you can lace a ribbon through. 😊 As an ex-cutting counter person trim yardage is very hard to estimate because all cards are slightly different widths and it’s usually more than you think. The green fringe may be a home decor fringe (valances and upholstery).

[@cinemaocd1752]

I came here to say this, but then I thought surely someone else would have pointed out that "insertion lace" is lace that is meant to be inserted in a garment, usually in a cut out. Gowns and blouses with very elaborate insertions were all the rage 100 years ago. Bernadette Banner has a video series about making a blouse like this.

[@historical.isolde7918]

As I was watching this video, I kept seeing trims and braids that I LOVED so much, I knew straight away what they were going to become. I had over $50 worth in my shopping cart (plus another $54 for shipping to Australia...) before I remembered that I am Hard Core Saving at the moment for an SCA trip in April that still needs a lot of costumes for, so I am not allowed to buy any non-related sewing supplies. Sad face.

[@briarwoodimp]

someone has probably said it somewhere, but lots of your "what is this for?" are upholstery and drapery trims. The wide wool stuff stitched on both edges is a fringe. You pull the chain stitched, usually white, thread after you attach it, thus keeping the fringe from being in the way while stitching. Thick cooton, folded in half at 44 and the wool just before it are trims for edges on wool suits. Think pockets and lapels on chanel.

[@catherinemckegney8344]

The narrow laces in black, red navy look exactly like the lace used to bind the edge of a hem. In the 70s and 80s it was sold in 3 yd packets. That way you could avoid the puckering of a sloppily turned up hem because the slight stretch took up the tension.

[@charlesstewart6191]

Oh, I forgot (Fringe) one row of that stitching is a chain stitch, to remove once sewn into project.

[@catmartindale-vale8749]

That blue green 'wool' would be epic on a blanket edge

[@merriehightower1481]

The polyester fold over braids were used as decorative binding on band uniforms, cheer leader uniforms etc

[@harriotteworthington3147]

@StephanieCanada vintage cotton weave lace can feel itchy if the manufacturer added sizing to prevent raveling in transport/distribution. Cut off about 1 inch and test wash, you may find I’m right…. I inherited laces my grandmother squirreled away 1890-1950. She also had a hand crafted collar/cuff collection (loading washing machines are a new-fangled idea).I still have all of it…

[@bonnieprater5124]

The "knitted" trim is machine made bobbin lace.

[@lauriekoehler530]

Fish out of water! Stretch trims for knit shirts and tops. Like cuffs on tee shirts. I loved the little daisy trim. It reminds me of something mom made. Have a great day!

[@twinnish]

I’m still here 53:05. I live in Saudi Arabia, and I can’t buy any of this anytime in the foreseeable future. I like watching you anyway. I do have to say they sell trim here to a degree that makes one dizzy. I mean they have a lot of trim. They love their trim it’s not even funny. And it’s mostly really really cheap. Some of the styles are very particular to this particular region and they’re beautiful. You would never find them anywhere in the US unless you find some specialty stores in like an Indian or Pakistani neighborhood. Definitely things that would look beautiful trimming modern western clothes also. I love your trims there because they remind me of ones that I have loved for years especially the cotton crochet style laces. You know all the hippie dippy dresses of the 70s. That’s where my brain went. I love those so much.

[@thebookwyrmslair6757]

The lace at 6:33 reminded me of the lace I used to trim my wedding veil! I did a simple circle of soft tulle, edged it in fast, gorgeous lace, then sewed a clip in to what I deemed the top. It made more of a mantua style, and I adored both it itself AND that I had created it!

[@snart20]

I ❤ these videos! It’s like the vintage home shopping network!😊

[@makingnewdreamscometrue]

Thank you for throwing away the moldy stuff. And that yellow helix trim - I’d put vertical style lines in a skirt or pants. It would even be cool on sleeves.

[@Lure-Light]

short bits could be used for doll cloths or in a mystery bag of bits under a meater

[@StrawberriPie17]

"I'm weird" mee too stephanie meeee too :P

[@vickipeck3624]

Wool dyes well- Those narrow red, white, and the pink that was in a sealed bag remind me of the lace we used in the 70’s on hems and sometimes seams (inside). We didn’t have sergers so the lace was nice.

[@charlesstewart6191]

Deep Navy "not elastic" also not ribbon. Is called soutache trim or soutache braid. Makes the scrolly stuf on garments called passementary (probably miss spelled.

[@charlesstewart6191]

47min in it's a foldover edging to finish the edges of bulky fabrics

[@gingerdean1521]

Soutache braid used on 1850's bodices. A curve from the shoulder over the bosom and into the waist seam

[@Roberta-g5s]

I love seeing all the goodies. I can’t let myself buy so much but get great pleasure from watching. Some of the “ugly” fabrics i adore and vice versa. It makes us all so interesting and different

[@voxangelaemortis]

The one trim that actually caught my attention and (of course with my luck) it's the one that is riddled with black mold. 😅 P.S. RE: the laces you couldn't identify. They look like the cords you would put through the hood of a sweatshirt or jacket to me. Could be "laces" in the way shoestrings are laces.

[@DrawTangleswithDawn]

Cut the discolored trim off and make bundles of mystery bag trims. Art journalers will paint or dye them anyway but we love a bundle deal with a variety of textures!

[@janisi9262]

Goth here - I will happily take the discoloured cotton lace - I'm just going to dye it anyway! I inherited some sewing notions from a friend's grandmother that were made in West Germany. Fish out of water. I watched the whole thing while folding laundry.

[@Ellen_Lee86]

These vintage haul trims bring back memories from my teenage years in the 1970s. My mom made me a maxi dress with puffy long sleeves, an empire waist, and a velvet ribbon tie like the yellow and blue in the video. She also made my sister a Gunne Sax dress that had flat lace trim like some in the collection as well. Between the yards and yards of fabric and yards and yards of lace, it cost about $50 - a small fortune in the mid-1970s. Love your videos! Thanks, Stephanie!

[@stillhuntre55]

Awesome stuff! A lot of that trim, including the wool, would probably take dye beautifully. I'm noticing the french trim that says "cotton" that you say is stiff, is flagged as "No Iron!" Makes me wonder if it's cotton with a coating or treatment on it - so folks could buy trim made of the same fibre as their outfit (so they laundered the same) but didn't have to worry about ironing out crumped trim (which is a PAIN). Maybe?

[@joycleckley2881]

Yes, cotton trim or lace is starched heavily so it will hold shape while on the store shelf.

[@amandar7481]

The fringe trims are always sewn at the bottom and that seam(?) can be unraveled once you’ve attached the trim to your project. It protects the threads of the fringe from fraying. You’ll see tassel trims do this as well.

[@craftingwithcasca]

Love all the black ones! Also I'm pretty sure my grandparents had something similar to the super thick dark brown wool one around the bottom of their couch.

[@sheHerTheyThem]

Fish out of water here😉, but I was finding so many uses for the lil scrapes of lacece and bric a brac ,I guess working with miniature and in Barbie size helps!the groovy brown and orange what you called 80s but as a child of the 70s I'd calls 70s would look fire on a 1970s Ken and Barbie outfit!!😂

[@theplussizecostumer]

The woven trims with no design, just a solid color, are fold over trims. Kinda like bias tape. I once made a swim top that called for that kind of trim on the armholes, neckline, and hem. That way, you didn't have to try to fold up the edges to make a hem. It was back in the 70s when those really slinky knits were a big thing. I remember that sewing the trim on was a giant pain in the tuches.

[@NJ-Cathie]

You need to do a joint video with Bernadette Banner. She uses trim on blouses & undergarments especially historical recreations.

[@nerdaccount]

That black folded lace looked like the skirt trim Bernadette Bannor used on her wool walking skirt to protect the edge which would then be removed as it got damaged.

[@Susan-il1fv]

Man I don't sew and I gotta get back to work, but I feel an addiction to trims beginning! Oh!

[@marathorne6821]

[@FranciscaPires]

Fish out of water! Thank you for keeping me company while i mend some shorts i wear under skirts and also thank you for protecting your customers from themselves 😂

Green bulky trim is fringe. Would be used for upholstery/pillows.

[@conniesmith9989]

Hi. I think you are a character. Thank you for sharing. Please don't forget to wash your hands when you are through. I know I'm in the habit of washing my hands after shopping, etc.

[@mollysmith6055]

Fish out of water! This was so much fun to watch and would have made a great premiere video so we could all be telling you in real time what many of those were (those of us of a certain age). The bridal lace in the beginning is an Alencon style, notable for the hand sewn cording (not soutache) outlining the motifs. Very often that cording was actually silk wrapped. She sure had a varied selection of trims...many of those you questioned were actually home dec trims and meant for curtain, pillow, lampshade etc. edgings. Making bags wasn't really a thing back then like it is now. You had some beltings in there too. The thick satin cording was also used for making frog closures and the very skinny navy woven trim is soutache braid. A good amount of lace was definitely the kind we used to use for the Gunne Sax patterns and also some of those really delicate ones were the types sold for heirloom-style children's clothing. I used to have a subscription to Heirloom Sewing magazine, gorgeous stuff. As others have said the fold-over trims were for decorative garment edging and used often in Austrian boiled-wool style jackets and suits. A fashion trend of the time. This all is such a trip back in time to the fabric store I used to work at in the early 80's. I love your comment about the lace being knitted and not crocheted...we always referred to those styles as crochet trim but of course how could it be?! And ps, that cool black lace you loved was all lingerie lace. "Nice" ladies would never wear that type of lace on a street garment, haha. Thank you for the great fun...now to go shopping!

[@crizzyjj]

That was so fun! Fish out of water, swimming through the trim, lol! Thanks for the video, can't wait to see more.

[@joybellamy5561]

Thank you, Stephanie for thinking of our health I have respiratory problems, but I often think of the people whose lives could have been saved. If people would have been more considerate I’m talking about Covid my daughter used to work in the ER during that time. I like to thank anyone who thinks of others 🎉 thank you ❤

I think the wool green and blue would work as verigated trim. I would be interested in it if it's after my payday.

[@michellecornum5856]

The bleached blue and green wool -- perfect for putting on the edge of a floor length skirt that is going to see a lot of wear out on the streets. Same with all the wool folded in half stuff -- hem binding. Fish out of water

[@CandiceLemonSharks]

The green yarn trim is making me think Christmas tree garland in a yarnfetti trend kind of way

[@anam123]

That corset lacing trim in fushia is so pretty

[@helenwoolverton235]

Not sure of it but I think the red stretch lace (from Flare) at 12:07 is hem binding. Slightly stretchy, meant to be used on hems so that you got hems that did not pucker so badly. My Mom used to use it in the 1960's through the 1980's. You have some awesome trims there.

[@jenniferwolff4838]

The little bumps go by nubs, nupss, bobbles, or bullion stitch depending on size etc in the knitting community. (Nupp comes from the Estonian word for "bud".) And the pleated yellow scallop is epic and MY JAM.

[@jayneterry8701]

The pink stretch lace you unpacked, the red and white are by the bolt the same lace you get in those prepackaged 3 yds. They were used on your hem inside the garment. 😉 You know to finish it off pretty 😊

The wool, cotton and polyester folded trims are binding fabrics for finishing coats, vest ….very similar to bias tape

[@jodiherfendal]

I see seam bindings, rug bindings, uplostery trims, lace hem tapes, oh my. LOL

[@judym3634]

All I can think of is communion veils, bridal veils and the velvet belting? Maybe a hat band? Cording for Roman shades? and long tassels for drapery? Are some pieces bias tape? It’s very interesting-these textile mysteries!

[@WthrLdy]

The yarn that is sewn on two sides is pillow fringe. you sew it in and then cut/trim one side to free the fringe, same as the white tassel you had eariler.

[@annahackman2539]

The trim at minute 30 looks like belt or suspender strap.

[@tinarichards3358]

The trim that is 'string' stitched at both edges is fringe. The chainstitching on the looser edge pulls out once the trim has been applied to your garment/project. Much easier to deal with than loose strings.

[@christinea52]

You had me in stitches laughing about the “rats nest” and what happened!? So funny. You have some beautiful lace! I appreciate your honesty too.

[@underthebluesky92]

My mom, loved to add lacy trim to the dresses she made for me, way back in primary school. She also used the 1/2 to 1 inch wide lace as seam binding. A lot of that natural trim can be washed and over dyed, even the wool. Some of it, so pretty, so fun to watch your videos.

[@moniquehollomon1900]

I love how honest you are, much appreciated! I love the idea of saving things from the landfill.

[@sparkyal43]

I have used many of these types of trim. I have sewn clothing including gowns and wedding dresses. I also made curtains and upholstered furniture. This is definitely bringing up memories. Thank you for this fun video.

[@knitterliness]

That blue belting would be great for bag straps. All you do is topstitch down both edges with desired thread color.

[@eallundquist8408]

FOW, I totally can see that yellow scallop pleated trim on a Victorian gown!

[@mellie4174]

Dear Stephanie, just to help you with your identifications, the brown, near black one stitched on both sides , is fringe. The double stitching on the bottom is meant to hold the fringe down during shipping and stitching onto the dress. When you're done you take off the stitching to free the fringe. I hope that helps!

[@stevezytveld6585]

Hope you're feeling better after handling the trim. Thank you for not selling the bad stuff. Take care, Woman. Leatherworkers may also be interested in the profusion of belt buckles? The thicker trims that have stitchings on both sides - one side is probably meant to be removed to let the fluff, um, fluff? - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi

The black in white trim is a wool suiting trim used for seams and pocket trims on ladies wool suits/skirt suits.

[@evawisl]

Thank you so much for this video. The items that caught my eye were the edged velvet ribbons on the reels with the estimator. Especially the picot edged one it reminded me of the satin picot edged ribbons that my mom used to tie the end of my plaits with for going to school 😊. I still have a few photos with myself and my younger sister in our school days with our plaits and ribbons 😁 such beautiful memories. I recognised many of the trims, especially the laces and so many of the viewers have been spot on in their comments as to what they are and their various uses. Just thank you again for this wonderful walk down memory lane and kudos for having good ethics to dump the mouldy stuff. As you say and other viewers have pointed out, it is not to be messed with!

Insertion lace usually has both sides flat, since they generally get inserted between two pieces of fabric. The kind of lace you can lace a ribbon through is generally called beading or beaded. You can also have a lace that’s both, aka a beaded insertion lace.
