Not a thrift store, but a vintage shop. The difference? The prices.

[@paulaelliott2181]

OMG I love Sweet Lorain! My wife went to school with the owner, he is the best! So much fun in that store

[@marietrendz773]

I live in Cleveland thank you for this. I’m gonna stop by.

[@justme-on7bn]

I have been here a couple times. It is not a thrift store. It’s a vintage shop and it is pricey. Everything is very organized and neatly displayed.

[@marietrendz773]

I sew and I live in Cleveland so I love this video

[@marietrendz773]

It’s the prices for me, though a lot of it is a little bit overpriced, especially when the village discount outlet has the same kind of stuff for less

[@ncmckinley]

Blown away that you left there with only 1 item, and I just love that it was for your “patriot husband.” We need more of those!!

[@marciayingling7983]

I live in Elyria and never heard of this store!!! My grandson goes to St Eds High School . Per Google maps, Sweet Lorain's is only 10 mins away!

[@karenkay8928]

Guitar Mania was an event that decorated the city with 100 specially painted fiberglass guitars. Artists painted the guitars, they were displayed, then later auctioned to benefit charities. A classmate, George Kocar, with quite a published art career, did one of my favorites. ❤

[@WyhnTemple]

Used to work for SVP (aka Singer). I have the little black machine. Yes, it was marketed for kids. It didn’t take a bobbin, but when threaded properly (above and below) it did a good quality chain stitch. It works the thread on both sides of the fabric. What I haven’t seen before is that case - ooohhh, I’d love to have that! What even increases my temptation more is that I live about an hour’s drive from Cleveland! Thanks for sharing this! If nothing else, I have to see this shop!

[@beckyjonke994]

Pretty excited to know you're from the Cleveland area too! Flower Child on Clifton is fun to wander through as well.

[@TheSewingChannel]

I've totally been there too LOL🤣 Same daughter showed me that store couple years ago🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

[@wandawalker4191]

That sore seemed very clean. I was impressed that most things were bagged up and organized.

Sweet Lorain is the best. A costume designer’s DREAM.

Sharing that day with your baby who's having a baby is so precious :) How fun for you! Your daughter will remember this day always. Love a good walk through an antique shop and coming out having showed great restraint !!

[@michelemonet7616]

Thanks so much for posting this. I haven’t been to Suite Lorain in years. But I need to go back now!

[@RuthK-b5i]

Oh my! I'm in trouble! I had no idea you are in the Cleveland area. This shop is on the other side of Cleveland for me however I will be making the trip to this place as soon as winter is over! Just watched your paper piecing technique - thanks for sharing all of your great ideas!❤❤❤❤

[@UsernameUnkwn21]

Seems like an Antique mall not so much a 'thrift store'

[@alexvictoriajones7419]

Thank you Tracy for sharing this store on your channel. My mom and I went to Sweet Lorain’s today. I agree it's overwhelming. They are packed to the gills with stuff but they are very organized with everything. The only downside about this store is that there are no public restrooms. We found out the hard way and was told to drive down to the library to use their restroom.

[@TheSewingChannel]

What? Wow!!!! No restrooms!!!! That's crazy...I had no idea at all. I'm glad you did get to go though...it's a cool second hand store!

[@kjmav10135]

Volunteers of America in North Olmsted is inexpensive and huge and has tons of stuff, a fair amount if it is good to great. Their jewelry was amazing. When I lived in the Cleveland area, that was my go-to. Cleveland is a wonderful town for arts and culture. I really enjoyed living there. This is more of an antique store. Not a thrift store.

[@szelop]

Such an amazing store! Just WOW! Yes vintage sheets feel soooo good!

[@ghost.ranger1628]

WOW those prices are high there, I"m telling you go to I-76 Antique mall Ravenna, Ohio prices are are sooooo much better then there.

[@hknisley2000]

@@ghost.ranger1628 I'm in Ravenna!

[@tinaforeman4678]

I guess I would really consider this place more of an antique mall than a thrift store. Both are up my alley. May have to make a road trip.

[@hollydawsonjames1999]

I live on the outskirts of Cleveland Ohio, I will definitely check out the shop

[@karenjackson6813]

At 2:34 there's a blue carnival glass candy jar exactly like the one my grandmother had. Been looking for one for years.

[@colleenscottcarmello5103]

* * * That looks more like an Antique Store than a Thrift Store. Not thinking it is a Thrift store at all. It's so organized because each booth is owned by a different person or group and they take care of their individual spaces.. Yeah, very cool indeed! Be careful, you will be hooked on them. lol.. ask me how I know lol

[@MimisTreasureCottage]

@colleenscottcarmello5103 Sweet Lorain is a unique antique store. They have multiple vendors, but no one has a booth. There are "departments" where all the merchandise is displayed. There's an area for jewelry, holidays, barware, clothing, etc! I've done three videos on it myself, and I could still spend an entire day in there, for sure.

[@christinej2358]

That is a great place to shop. How sweet you sharing hearing your granddaughter’s heartbeat with us. She sounds strong and healthy!

[@viviannefraser5974]

The displays and quantity items are amazing in this store.

[@auntielhandmade2099]

What a fun day. That store is more like an antique store than thrift store. But how fabulous it is.

[@jojorey6886]

I think I could spend a week in that shop and I don’t usually go to thrift stores although I consider that store a vintage store. Incredible! Very well organized.

[@DebbieJeffRadak]

Sweet Lorain is a fun and exciting place to shop.

[@lindaprice9242]

Wow!! Let's just camp out there for a couple of days. I'm like you I just get too overwhelmed my eyes won't focus. That was an awesome antique store.

[@cheriwilliams7001]

That was great!!!! I remember so much of what you shared. It was a blessing to hear you granddaughter’s heartbeat.

[@CathieErickson-v1z]

I sewed doll clothes on that machine. There was a clamp so you could attach it to the table. I think my twin sisters got it in the mid 50s.

[@TeresaGarcia-ry3ch]

OMG! I would spend my entire day there. Thanks for sharing. Congrats to you and your daughter too. God Bless!

[@Astras-Stargate]

Thanks for the tour and the heartbeat. Very kind of your daughter!

What a cool store! What a fun day you had with your beautiful daughter. I love the sound of the baby's heartbeat ❤.

[@debbiedobbins6785]

What a fantastic day you two had. Thanks so much for sharing it with us Miss Tracy. I am so with you being “overwhelmed” in a store like that. Too many things to look at…I have the same exact problem..this is why I don’t go garage sale shopping by myself. I can’t focus on any one item when everything is mixed together. The fabric and vintage items in that store was unbelievable. So fun. Grandbabies just make the world right again. 😌 Have a wonderful weekend. 🤗🤗

[@barbolson8768]

Hi Tracy, wow what a store. I had a pair of the rainbow sheets on my bed as a teenager. Those would be about 50 years old. I had the exact same black Barbie case. Wishing your daughter well with the baby.

[@marshasetering3143]

WOW, what a treasure trove!! Thanks for taking us with you. Congratulations to you and yours on baby.

[@keelaeldridge8487]

I had those rainbow sheets when I was young! Haven’t thought about them in a very long time!

[@helenpeddycord2241]

What an awesome shop!! So full of fascinating goodies too🎉🎉 Hope you get to go back for a full day or 2 of shopping Tracy. I’m sure you will come out with some great treasures. Congrats to sweet Jessica and baby girl on the way! I remember the first time I heard my first Grandchild’s heartbeat💕 It almost brought me to my knees!! Such a precious memory stored up in our hearts FOREVER♥️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Omg i would be in so much trouble too! So sweet you got to hear your grand babies heartbeat. My first born is named Jessica too ❤

Oh I love that your daughter Jessica let you share that precious moment with us. To hear your grand babies heart beat for the first time is just amazing. The Lord is amazing, isn’t that right! I have 3 children & 8 grand babies…I am still in aww of our Lord. It amazes me every time. What a blessing Tracy! Thank you for sharing that moment with us too. Now that store was unreal! I am a bit like you in that sometimes …wall to wall…even absolutely wonderful is too much for me. I would have to take a break literally! 🤣 I know after the fabric, I would have headed straight to the 70’s clothes! My style of choice! WILD! 🤫🤭😂

My Sister-in-law and I always go thrifting when we get to meet up (we unfortunately live 6 hours away from each other) I tell you there are some great thrift stores in Ohio (also in Michigan) It's so much fun. I get the feeling overwhelmed in places with "too many" things - it's even worse when you aren't sure what you are looking for. I have found that taking a break - having a cup of tea/coffee and THEN going back helps. lol The store looks amazing! but a weeeee bit expensive. (for my taste)

I moved to Cleveland from San Francisco and think their prices are way too high. You can tell they don't sell a lot because its so crammed packed, If the prices were more reflective of the income level of this city they would sell a lot more.

Many of those small sewing machines are salesperson’s “models” not for children which many assume.

The pink glass is actually called cranberry glass, and the color is made with gold somehow.

I know exactly what you mean op shops totally overwhelm me I can’t concentrate in there I think it’s to do with my OCD everything crammed in so tight. One of my daughters loves op shopping she used to have days out with my best friend when she was growing up the two of them would just get lost in op shopping heaven, she wore op shop fashion as a teenager it was great she mixed stuff together that her siblings thought were awful or weird until she had it on then it looked so good. We are talking back in the 90s old men’s argyle jumpers, corduroy pants, jersey knit dresses she was very cheap to cloth I can tell you not so much the 3 others lol
