Hi friends! Thanks for watching the video! If you watched as the video went live, you might have seen in the chat that I said the makeovers video of many of these projects was published a couple of weeks ago. Nope! 😂😂I got turned around on what video was published! The makeovers video showing some of these items will be published in a couple of weeks so stay tuned! Be sure to check out the description for links to other videos and blog post tutorials!

I can’t believe the prices on furniture in the restore. Amazing.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

The prices were unreal!!I’m having regrets about the pair of chairs!

[@shellydehart8217]

Hi Cindy, that table at the Habitat was a humidor for cigars. I have a humidor that is a cabinet but they came in different types of furniture. I saw a lot of nice things at this Habitat/Reuse. Ours has nothing like that one did n they really jack up the prices too. Anyway you got a lot of cool stuff. Oh, forgot about that Ironstone pitcher n bowl. I couldn’t see the price but I’m sure to know if I was there I’d buy it. I collect Ironstone n love it. Hey, I thought those shorts looked cute on you especially with the shirt you got. I wish I could wear shorts but I’m to embarrass with the spider veins. It gets hot here in Florida too not wearing shorts. Sorry, I got off the beaten path hahaha. I’m sure it was nice spending time with your daughter n granddaughter. It’s so much fun to do things together n going thrifty too. Look forward to your makeovers. ♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟🌟

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Hi Shelly! Thanks for the info about the humidor. I should’ve gotten it but I forgot to go back and grab it. Same with the white shorts, I’m having regrets that I didn’t get them. I don’t usually wear shorts. I prefer T-shirt dresses because they’re so comfy, you and I are Ironstone kindred spirits 😊 thanks for watching 😊

[@dorisbuckner]

Loved the video.. u gals got amazing finds, kudos🌹♥️

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thanks! We think we got some great stuff too! And the best part is we spent the day together 🥰

[@karenstewart8818]

Was just in Williamsburg this past weekend with my sister, camping. She's looking for a particular piece of furniture so im going to tell her about the hfh resell store. She lives in norfolk, so it wouldn't be a huge trip for her to run up there.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Awesome! It might take her about an hour to get o Williamsburg from Norfolk. But it’s worth the trip. The Restore is amazing!

[@Kimmelbee1]

I know those thrift stores! Used to live in Williamsburg. You missed the CHKD on Mooretown Road and the Barhamsville Thrift. Two really good thrift stores. Barhamsville is only open on Saturdays. They moved to a different building since I moved from Williamsburg and I haven't made it there yet so I'm not sure of the address. Ask your daughter, she may know. Next time you have to go there. ❤ Nice finds.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thank you! I will send your suggestions to my daughter so she can check them out! Thank you for watching 😊

[@donnadozier4294]

Love watching your thrifting videos.❤

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Glad you like them! I love to go thrifting!😊

[@r.leahperez8692]

I believe the little silver cup is either a syllabub or punch cup. Love all your hauls! My favorite this haul is the pair of glass wall lamps. Just lovely…

[@ReinventedDelaware]

You might be right about the silver cup. Someone else commented that it might be a baby cup to celebrate a birth. She suggested I look for an engraved name - sure enough the cup has ‘Scott’ engraved on it!

[@susanhammon9269]

I went thrifting in the Williamsburg area last year and I ended up shipping 6 boxes home! There are definitely a lot of treasures for great prices in that area!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

That is awesome! I am lucky that one of my daughters lives there - I plan on going thrift shopping every time I visit!😊

[@terrythomas2735]

The one cabinet is a smokers cabinet for cigars

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thanks for letting me know!

[@quiltednestvintage6347]

yes... called a humidor.

[@kerstindrost5610]

I had to google Williamsburg, as I couldn't believe the prices in those Thrift stores. Whether you live in the States or in Canada. Yard sales are still the better option to find very nice things for a really good price, if you restore and resell the items. But only good if you have time on hand. lol I do love going into Thrift stores. Always bringing enough time with me to look around. Most of our items are from thrift stores, yard sales or inheritet items. And it comes together nicely. Love your videos!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Hi Kerstin! I couldn’t believe the great prices. We came across while out thrift shopping in Williamsburg. Since it’s a tourist area, I thought prices would be higher. Yard sales are amazing and you’re so right about the time that it takes to go to yard sales thanks for watching 😊

[@theslipcovermaker]

Oh, wow! The ReStore in that area is HUGE compared to the one near me -- so many go deals. I want to go thrifting with you girls!!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

I hope you can go Thrifting with us one day, Karen! 😊

[@asianangie7209]

So many great finds! I thought the white shorts looked cute on you.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thanks for the kind words about those shorts. Looking back at the video I think I should’ve gotten them too! 😊

[@karenn993]

Your hair is adorable! Such great finds.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thank you!! 😊 my natural wave sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t!😂

[@marilynnde]

Glazed items must go on a tripod item with spikes to hold it up so the glaze does not stick to the shelf in the kiln. The spikes made the "dimples" on your plates.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thank you for the info!

[@katiecoleman9847]

Those marks on the little plates are from "stilts" that are used in the glaze firing process.

[@amyharsh9714]

Those crystal wall sconces were are great find!❤

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Yes they are! Stay tuned for my upcoming makeovers video - I’ll be showing what I did with them😊 Thanks for watching!

[@KarenGreenhagel]

Here in N. ILL, I rarely see any nice old furniture, iron stone, old picture frames, ornate mirrors, or brass candle sticks in the thrift stores here. Shopping looks more fun in your area and in your daughters area!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

That's too bad about not finding those types of items in your area! My daughters area is loaded with all the good stuff!

[@jeansenner9368]

You found beautiful pieces! Also I hope you got the outfit because it looked great on you!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

We did find some great pieces! And as for the outfit I should’ve gotten those white shorts. I’m having regrets as I watch the video back! 😊

[@jeansenner9368]

@@ReinventedDelaware oh the regrets! I have a lot of thrifting regrets as well😂 however my house is small and I do not have enough room for everything I want to get so I have to tell myself no. I regret not buying some things later. It doesn’t help me either that my husband is a minimalist. Otherwise I would buy more.

[@summerrose4978]

Oooh those green dishes, great to decorate with for Christmas

[@ReinventedDelaware]

They are so pretty! I would buy all the dishes if I could🤣

[@loriholland6431]

I loved thrifting with my Mom, and you are so lucky to be doing that with your daughter and granddaughter! You both found some amazing things! I couldn't believe that the chair was only $2, and I thought for sure that it was going home with you. I could see you turning it into something beautiful! I can never find any white Ironstone in my area, not sure why that is. I hope the brass hanging pot is waiting for you....I loved it too!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thanks so much Lori! That chair for two dollars would’ve come home with me if I didn’t have to stay in Virginia for another two weeks. They would’ve been perfect in my living room. That copper and brass hanging pot was not available even though my daughter went back a week later to get it so bummed! 😊

[@sylvialangworthy1435]

Looked like a lot of fun shopping with your daughter and you both got amazing items! 🤗

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thank you 🤗 We had a great couple of days together !

[@hollysnow5290]

Love your hair. Looks easy.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thank you! 😊 I have a fair amount of natural curl. I used to hate it but I decided to embrace it about 20 years ago😊

[@lorrainemooney4200]

I live just down the street from this Restore. Excellent bargains!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

That's awesome Lorraine! It is one to visit for sure!🥰

[@margaretdillinger5090]

I’d been grabbing those silver plated pieces in Goodwill. I’ve got a booth for church bazaar in November and I love to redo them for Christmas. The blue top and shorts look fabulous on you. I like those stores.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Your booth is going to be amazing! I would love to know how you are redoing them for the church bazaar😊 Also, we have been discussing selling upcycled pieces on our podcast. Here is a link if you want to listen and watch: kzbin.info/aero/PLVFXDa1HmPedOo6vJ6cr71MWYICRqHWJd

[@judigood4606]

So fun! Thank you for sharing.❤

[@ReinventedDelaware]

You are welcome and thanks for watching 😊

[@deboracontos834]

I'm still thrifting with my Mom and I'm thankful for the time! Great video and super finds! : )

[@ReinventedDelaware]

That’s awesome that you still thrift with your mom! Relationships are so important and we should give the time that they need to deepen 🥰

[@donnaplumridge9769]

Can’t wait to see what you do in the upcoming videos! Always love to see how you refurbish your finds. I always love to see the antique section of the Habitat Restore on vlogs. Loved the carpets you showed, absolutely stunning, and the red one would look fantastic in my living room. Loved the quality of the chest of drawers at the Goodwill store. Again thank you for taking me along with you, and especially sharing your daughter with us!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

The Habitat stores have so many great pieces and this one in particular is amazing! The rugs were awesome too! I should have grabbed one! Thanks for watching and I’m so glad you enjoy the videos Donna!

[@TheresaBP57]

❤all your thrift haul,no great thrift stores in my area like in yours 😢short did look good.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thank you! 😊That stinks not having great thrift stores close to you!

[@melaniesmizawski9413]

I have a dry sink just like the one early in your video!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Omgoodness, I bet it's gorgeous!!

[@LoisRuthstrom]

The three little dents in the bottom of your plates are from the stands that are used to keep the glazed plates up off of the kiln shelf. If the glaze dripped during firing without the stand, the whole plate could be stuck on the shelf. With the stand, you just have a spot of glaze that can be broken off and sanded smooth. Much easier clean-up! Also, my mother-in-law had that same Norman Rockwell print. I always thought it was so cute!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thanks for the information about the plates! I love those little dents. They are a mark of craftsmenship to me! My hubby loves the print too. It has special meaning to us both. Thanks for watching 😊

[@summerrose4978]

Thanks been looking for new places to check out

[@ReinventedDelaware]

You are welcome! Happy thrifting 😊

[@SimplyBlessedDesignz]

I am about 2-3 hours from Williamsburg... I'm definitely going to have to go check it out!!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

You should! Williamsburg has some great thrifting!😊

[@brendaromero4376]

Omg wish I was there!!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Seriously, they had some of the best stuff in Williamsburg!

[@craftynita6633]

yes, they use clay cones when firing pottery, i bet those dimples are from those plates being set on them when being fired in the kiln

[@ReinventedDelaware]

I think you are right! 😊

[@brendaromero4376]

Great deals

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Definately some of the best deals ever!

[@vintagewidow]

Are you located anywhere near Kansas? I swear that fry sink is one I sold about 15 years ago. 😂. It was the cracked door…mine was JUST like that and had the same handles.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Nope I’m not near Kansas at all! In fact, I’m all the way over on the east coast. But maybe that piece traveled long and far to get to the East Coast 😂😂😂

[@EMB238]

Small silver cup may be a baby’s cup. Often given as a Christening gift, and engraved with baby’s initials and birth date. 👼👼👼

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thank you for the info! I looked at the cup and sure enough it is engraved with ‘Scott’ Thanks for mentioning this😊

[@ellenraguette4623]

The “dimple” on the little white plates are where the kiln stand holds the piece during the glaze firing.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Of course! Thanks for the info!

[@windsongcraft175]

the dimples are where the dish sat on a stilt when it was fired in the kiln.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Thank you! 😊

[@Iris-je9rv]

❤

[@eileenirvin3010]

Looks like a silverplate baby cup.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

I think you are right - after the video went live I looked at the cup and it’s engraved with ‘Scott’😊 Poor Scott, I have his cup 😆

[@wpeters4361]

So jeolous...the furniture in that ReStore is incredible and the prices unbelievably low. The ReStore in my are is utter garbage with high prices.

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Agh! It’s crazy how prices can be so different! 😳

[@nancychannel8513]

Our Habitat for Humanity ReStore does not carry any glassware. So disappointing

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Wow, I wonder why they don't! That seems unusual!

[@pincushiondoll]

smoking stand

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Isn’t it so cool? I should have bought it!😊

[@barbarahuff4609]

I think that the little table is lined because it held tobacco

[@ReinventedDelaware]

I bet you are right! Thanks😊😊

[@avahunkler4074]

humidor

[@ReinventedDelaware]

Of course! Thanks😊
