Thrift TREASURE Haul // 126+ Year Old Item from Garage Sale?!

[@donnariddle436]

Can't wait to see the spooky house come to life! We've picked up doll houses this summer and made it a family project to flip them to spooky houses...so much fun hanging out snacking and getting the glue guns fired up! Your channel is full of great ideas...keep up the great work.

[@KrystaMeeker]

Okay, I love that!! What a fun memory you all will have of that! My toddler has been eyeing mine so I’ll have to find a little one to do with him. Haha. Thank you so much, glad you’re enjoying it! ❤️

[@richardguillen1123]

I absolutely adore your aesthetic and you have a really sophisticated eye. I love your channel. One tip…I have been a prop stylist for 20+ years and I highly recommend buying the odd/incomplete number of plates even if they don’t have the complete number you’re looking for. It’s easier and less expensive to gradually complete the set than finding the exact number you’re looking for all together. I learned this pretty early on in my career.

[@KrystaMeeker]

Thank you so much! What an awesome job you have! Funny enough, I just went back a few weeks ago and picked those plates up, hoping I run into the rest of the set someday. 🤞

[@anastasijad5646]

Love that you found an antique Czech text book! Fun fact we still learn from similar text books at school to this day (same name I mean: Čítanka) 💕😌

[@KrystaMeeker]

Oh, how interesting, thank you for sharing!! ✨

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

I love the French Horn.✨ It’s perfect for Christmas, I agree. ❤️

[@KrystaMeeker]

Aaahh, a French Horn! Shoulda used my Google lens. 😏 haha!! ❤️

[@TCook1864]

Love love love old bottles and I put barkeeper's friend in mine with a little water and shake and let them sit and then rinse. That stuff cleans old glass and makes it beautiful again. 😊

[@KrystaMeeker]

Ahhh, thank you such a great tip! I’ll definitely be trying that! ☺️

[@adeledelarosa7819]

Your new to me.....you took the words rite out of my mouth....I truly love, admire vintage....in all sorts of ways...for example all of what you shared and in your home surroundings...glassware, lace, frames, prints...you name it...thanks for sharing

[@KrystaMeeker]

Sounds like you’ve got great taste! 😘

[@AntiqueAgenda]

I love decorating with antiques and searching for special treasures...I really like the oil lamp you found on the last video and love everything in this one!! 🤎🤎🤎

[@KrystaMeeker]

Thank you so much!! Nothing like a good treasure hunt! ❤️

I am so excited for this house!!!!

Ahhh, thank you, me tooo! 😁🖤

Score on the bottles and all of your items, especially the doll house. Looking forward to seeing it all spooked up :)

[@KrystaMeeker]

Thank you so much! 😊🖤

[@Blessedgirl1955]

You found some awesome items and that old book certainly deserve a box of it's own, that is a treasure! I love antiques as well and those old bottles were fascinating and you sure got a deal on those! When my daughter was little she would have loved to have such a beautiful dollhouse, what a find!

[@KrystaMeeker]

Thank you! I agree, that old book needs a special safe place!! I’m glad someone else is fascinated by old bottles. 😊

[@barimusgrove9147]

When I was growing up, my mom’s everyday glasses were those exact Anchor Hocking ones. My dad still has them, and he’s moving into an apartment soon, so I’m going over to get them before he throws them out. You’ve given me a new application for them! Thanks.

[@KrystaMeeker]

Aaahh, yes!! So glad it triggers that memory for you so you can save those beauties and even more special that they were your mom’s. ❤️✨

[@barimusgrove9147]

@@KrystaMeeker I also meant to tell you how awesome I think your antique book is!

[@YouCanCallmeNet]

Loved all the bottles ! You got some really cool ones ! Love the lamp too ! I can't wait to see the haunted house !!!!! 👻👻👻👻👻

[@KrystaMeeker]

I’m glad someone else is as interested in the bottles as I am! Haha. 😆❤️

[@sravanthit1176]

I thrifted the same glass lamp (transparent) for $10, so for 50 cents its a huge deal. It has little kerosene in it, blue color looks beautiful in it, I didn’t clean it. I love the amber glass lamp, I been collecting glass lamps too, I have 4 till now, my recent one is milk glass oil lamp, I fell in love immediately. I think you can use the doll house for Halloween as well as Christmas, actually you can make it as main piece in entryway and represent festival/season.

[@isabellemeyer9789]

I am ~obsessed~ with the dollhouse, I cannot wait to see how you transform it!!! All amazing finds, I’m inspired to see if I can find some cool stuff myself!

[@KrystaMeeker]

I’m so excited for this spooky house!! I’ll probably be texting you progress pics! 😆 Some day we’ll head up to KC and go check out Bella Patina, I’ve been wanting to go for forever!!

[@melindamoore9449]

When my kids were young in the 1980's I made a haunted house out of a doll house kit. It was so much fun. We had an eyeball room with googly eye balls glued all over black felt on the walls of one room, and a mad scientist set up at a table. Have fun!!

[@KrystaMeeker]

That sounds so fun, what a great memory to have! ❤️

[@wandarios1711]

Your little boy is so stinking cute!!! Loved the old bottles. I have a small collection. BLESSINGS!!!

[@laurellew]

Love all of these finds! I have a ton of old books I inherited when my grandparents passed. So now we need to see a video how you store everything!! 😊

[@laurellew]

Omg so stoked about the dollhouse! I used to be obsessed with drawing haunted houses as a kid. Can’t wait to see the transformation! 🧙‍♀️

[@KrystaMeeker]

Old books are so fascinating!! I use it all throughout my house to decorate, but not gonna lie our spare room is serving as a junk room for the extras these days. Little Laurel is my spirit animal! 😆❤️

[@azurechapman2226]

You always have the best Thrift hauls!! Loved everything you got!! And the idea for a haunted house with that dollhouse!!😍😍😍 ahhh I love it! So excited to see how it turns out :)

[@KrystaMeeker]

Thank sister!! I seriously cannot wait to do the haunted dollhouse! 👻🖤

[@cherylmacedo5521]

Pausing video to say…how cool is that veterinarian upper respiratory bottle (the OG Ivermectin for horses, cows and Covid) 🤣🤣🤣🤣 seriously the embossed horse head on the other side of the original label. Too freakin cool. Love it…. Ok, back to your haul 🖤🖤🖤

[@KrystaMeeker]

Right?!! 🤣 It really is a cool ass little bottle!

[@bettymac]

As a horse owner, I absolutely love that antique veterinary horse medicine bottle! Great find! 🐴👍🏻

[@lianeabeyta4515]

love all your great finds. The doll house is so cool. I can see the shutters on the window over the door... kind of pulled off the top hinge with some spider webs to look like the house is decaying. Can't wait to see your vision!

[@KrystaMeeker]

Oooh, love your ideas! I can’t wait to get started on it, very soon! 👻🖤

I just discovered your site. You are doing a wonderful job updating and decorating your home. Your yard sale items must make others jealous (me for sure).

I find my best stuff at the antique galleries in our area (Southern California). Your collection of bottles is so interesting. Doilies, tablecloths, dishes, and books are items I’m always drawn to. I recently found an old letter in one of the books my son sent to me. Your decorating is beautifully done. I am looking forward to catching up on some of your videos and looking forward to see what you do with the dollhouse. New subscriber here!

Thank you so much!! Thank you for the shopping suggestions! I’ve had so much fun browsing for little tiny spooky furniture! 👻

[@JoWellArt]

This book is a real treasure! Obrazková dějepisná čítanka (Czech language) = Illustrated historical reading-book August Geringer (August 3, 1842 Březnice - April 1, 1930 Chicago, USA) was a Czech-American printer, publisher and bookseller, active in the United States of America. From 1869, he operated his publishing house and bookstore in Chicago, where he published books and printed materials mainly in Czech. He participated in the public life of the numerous Czech-American community (e.g. the local Sokol) and was appreciated as a successful businessman, patriot and philanthropist. Congratulations to that incredible find. I am new to your channel and I am about to watch all your videos. Thank you for the beautiful content.I love it.

[@margeburke5599]

Check your thrift stores for the Wexford glasses. I always see tons of them. That is where I bought mine. They also have regular drinking glasses of the same pattern. That little oil lamp is also Wexford by Anchor Hocking.

[@KrystaMeeker]

You’re absolutely right, they do have them often. I got my first set of four at a thrift store, and then found this little one there as well. Hoping the others pop up soon! I would love some other styles as well, I’ve also got the matching pitcher. 😊

[@dianajemison105]

Just found you, and subscribed. Great finds! I think your tea cups are actually coffee cups, since they're a bit larger.

So many great treasures. Looking forward to seeing the doll house transformed. I have to comment on your eye lashes. They look so natural, and I am curious to know the brand. I am brand new to your channel and I am binge watching and enjoying every moment.

[@KrystaMeeker]

Thank you!! My lashes are from Flutter Habit in the style “The Flirt”. I have a discount link in my description, if you’re interested. They are considered a “DIY extension” so they are applied under the lashes rather than on top and last for about a week. Bit of a learning curve on applying but I like them! ☺️

[@jillbruce3624]

@@KrystaMeeker Thank you, they really are awesome.

[@jillbruce3624]

@@KrystaMeeker I just took the lashes plunge. Short ones as I am 70 years old and beyond the FLIRT but I like the way they are applied. Just hope I can do it.

Please forgive me for inserting so many comments….that’s just what I do. Two things, just another dirty old bottle….love it. And second, I know you lost your mom from another video where you said you put a teapot into each vignette in her honor. And I’m so sorry, girl, I know how you feel 💔. But I’m happy to learn a little more about her, as it’s obvious you share her DNA as she was a reseller, and you are a collector. Yep. My kinda people 🥰🥰🥰

We were so close and shared a love for treasure hunting and did it together weekly, I feel a bit closer to her when I’m out continuing to do “our thing”.
