THRIFTING PITTSBURGH, PA | Vintage Shopping For Mid Century Modern | Pennsylvania Vlog Part 2

[@pNo415]

Finally Laura is shopping in the crappy Goodwills that the rest of us non-Oregonians have to deal with on a regular basis! Great video as always!

[@leftcoastrevivals]

😂😂😂

[@marciastewart1527]

So true!!

[@racheltaylor8975]

I was thinking the same thing! Lol

[@dianejohnson9904]

Yes, yes, yes!

[@totallytania7978]

Still better than the one's here in L.A.!😕

[@pigoff123]

Pittsburgh had a lot of coal barons. I am not surprised they have amazing vintage and antiques 😊

[@Cindicado]

Red White and Blue is my favorite thift store in NJ. I NEVER go to any goodwills. Their prices at RWB are great and so are the finds. My best find from RWB, this year was a Moncler Black Puffer Jacket - like new for $10!!! I sold it for $850 plus shipping. I know its not a vintage MCM but still. One of my best flips! Thanks again Laura Great video!

[@jomcginnis6703]

Your Love for MCM has taught me to love the things I own. In my 70's and everything you love I thought was ugly once. Thank you

[@andreabradley5837]

I love the blue on blue on blue.

[@a.e.s.108]

I love your travel videos 😍 Mixing thrift shopping with vlogging and showing off the beauty of nature or awesome cities is a great idea, and definitely not boring as other thrifting channels can be... Love your honesty about pricing, no hiding, it brings you more followers 👏👏👏

[@kristenstoeltzing6717]

So cool to see my old professors painting! Happy to see you will be giving it a good home!

[@Snarkapotamus]

Where did he teach?

[@junebennett978]

Great find on the Gold silverware!!!

[@genier7829]

I have that exact same Alpaca cardigan. I got mine at Goodwill, and every time I wear it I receive compliments on it!

[@dyanalayng5507]

Oh my goodness! At 2:24 the mother and child by Canadian sculptor E.B. Cox.

[@lindafaierson6030]

Thanks Laura for sharing with us. I learn from you.At 72, I still love second hand stores.

[@leslikuyweski4576]

I think our Pittsburgh Goodwill stores are overpriced for the most part. Every once-in-a-while I'll find a good buy. I'm so glad you enjoyed your time in our city!

[@Amacott99]

I loved the Kashmiri jacket. Soooo beautiful

[@NancyMartinMysteries]

The joke in my family is that if you make a wrong turn in the Burgh, you end up on Mount Washington. Glad you saw the view!

[@robincollins4687]

Yep on that. I never thought I'd miss Pittsburgh as much as I do. Moved back to MN after husband passed. Is Point State Park still there & the riverboats? Loved Mt. Washington, the fresh food Saturday market, the museums, etc.

[@allysonmartin3161]

That particular Red White and Blue Thrift store is The Best thrift store in Pittsburgh. I’ve found amazing antique and vintage finds there! It was just mind blowing seeing you somewhere I shop!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!!

[@denisepaul7274]

Philly Girl here, and my city’s got a bit of a rivalry with Pittsburgh. But I’ve got to give props to Mahla & Co. Antiques. That shop was fantastic!

[@susansparanormalpennsylvan81]

i moved from california to pittsburgh, pa love it here, never going back, i dont miss the crowds, high prices and traffic in calif

[@Erica82411]

I’m so happy you made it to red white and blue! They are seriously the best!!! Idk how they get so much good stuff

[@joancaruso170]

I am from Pittsburgh and grew up in Mt. Washington it looks like that is where you were on the overlooks. There is one other one but if you're that close to Mt. Washington then 51 is down the long hill. That one is huge and I have not been there for such a long time. Hope you enjoyed looking down on the city and enjoyed Pittsburgh

[@cmarq817]

Beautiful painting! Great find 👍

[@peggy-ann1961]

We have Value Village where I live. All of these types of places can only be as good as what gets donated. If you live in a more affluent area then obviously they’ll have better product and vice versa. We are middle class farming here and that’s definitely reflected. What’s too bad is that the prices they are charging are now out of reach for those who were their original demographic. In fact the “ good stuff” is practically retail! The poorer folks can’t afford to shop there anymore unless they buy the “ crap” that should have been garbaged. Love your channel Laura, you are a breath of joy! ❣️🇨🇦

[@dianejohnson9904]

I’m from north central Pennsylvania; and some of those Goodwills remind me of my local Goodwill stores . . . a whole lot of nothing! Loved, loved, loved that first antique shop. Amazing stuff! I googled Ned Wert as I love abstract paintings, and see he just passed away January 9, 2022.

[@totallytania7978]

Our Goodwills give a whole new meaning to "Junk" stores!!😣

[@rebacarmack8335]

Yes- welcome to OUR GOODWILLS!

[@moe9246]

I know Don Drumm! He’s from my hometown of Akron Ohio. Sat with him and his wife and daughter at a wedding reception once. (Believe me, when they walked in with their gifts in Don Drumm shopping bags, everyone was jealous of the bride and groom! LOL) His work is so unique and easily identifiable.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

How awesome!! I just picked up my first Don Drumm piece recently! It will make an appearance in a video very soon 🙌

[@NJ-xp4eb]

Loved the painting what a great find.

[@alexandraswindells2953]

Great video as usual Laura. I absolutely love the abstract painting. It's stunningly beautiful 👏❤️

[@tonyashaw4571]

I’m just in awe of the eye you have for vintage, valuable and fantastic pieces! Goals!!

[@juliannearlene7244]

That first shop is the most fascinating I have ever seen but the prices are terrifying!

[@suemount6042]

This trip was fantastic

[@margieteresa1496]

I love that in our age bracket their are more people that love the oldies. Love your videos and style! Thanks for sharing!

[@aujkalenic4203]

Yes! My neck of the woods! We had a bridge collapse by Frick Park, all were safe!

[@marley5167]

My goodness, you have such luck at thrift stores!! That art piece is epic!

[@totallytania7978]

Agree!😉

[@dianesampson624]

I loved the first mother and child sculpture that you came across , and the blue hat is perfect 👌 Thank you for taking us along with you.

[@joesilva8528]

Great find 🖼..!!!!!! You need to make your way to northern Cali..!!! You’ll be surprised what you’ll find out this way…!

[@ibycarm]

Love all your videos. Thank you for sharing!

[@giralphygiraffe994]

I'm so excited that I got on and saw your video in my feed!!

[@brookeperk93]

My boyfriend lives on mount Washington, isn’t it such a wonderful perspective on the city view,

[@sillimichelle]

I just can't believe you were in Penn Hills. Would have just died to have run into you! Hope you enjoyed the Burgh!❤

[@wanda4573]

I went to red white and blue shop. Love it!!! I got a pure stone necklace. Small stones all the same size. Greens. cold to touch. Now I live on the other side of the world it has a special memory of that time in that shop which I really liked a lot.

[@brandilowe1916]

i live in Pittsburgh and so i enjoyed this

[@brookeperk93]

Yinzer here too!!!! Loving seeing all the footage

[@allysonmartin3161]

Pittsburgher here too! Wasn’t it fantastic seeing Laura in our city!

[@cherylfavret1717]

Once again Laura we had a great adventure with you! Love the piece’s you picked up, can’t wait to see the art work in your new home! Also the blue on blue on blue was smashing, you go girl💙💙💙

[@staceymccalpin1685]

Our Goodwill's in Northern Michigan are not nearly as full as yours are. I do find things here and there, but nothing like your finds!

[@loriscott1568]

I don't collet Bakelite, but I do have my Mom and Dads wedding gift of Bakelight stake knifes from 1955. They still work great!

[@donnamunoz1613]

Laura loved all the blue on you and the picture you took with city on the background was gorgeous.

[@christineprice5463]

I am glad you found the coat! Looks great on you! The art work was a awesome find! Congrats

[@wanda4573]

Glad you got the coat. Love it

[@balefyrenarts9259]

I am so glad in th uk charity shops are in general small.... because I would buy so much stuff if i was living in the US! I can't believe the size of some of these stores!!!

[@beckylittlecreek3641]

You found some great things in Pittsburgh esp the original painting‼️ What a fun trip and thanks for taking us with y’all❣️

[@andreareeder888]

That painting was a beautiful steal

[@trfact2842]

That painting is amazing! Kudos. Nice job.

[@nancybump6876]

That picture, wow. Nice find Laura!

[@laraemitchell9064]

You look smashing in the blue! No such thing as too much blue!💙💙💙

[@farjanajahan1545]

The work on coat called 'Kashmiri' handwork.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Thank you!!! I didn’t know what it was called 😍

[@farjanajahan1545]

@@leftcoastrevivals I do have one but different color. and I think fabric material is raw silk. this is way more worth then 100$

[@chrisgogreve8743]

Great video!! I didn’t realize Pittsburgh was so beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

[@oldladylovesBruno]

The blue hat looks great on you! Congratulations on the Wert painting.

[@totallytania7978]

I totally agree!👍

[@gperks37]

Its always a pleasure to watch you shop ,explain each piece and see where you are headed next.

[@janicenorris8726]

Such history in that area. I could only imagine how those people lived back then. Different times for sure. Thanks for always increasing our knowledge.

[@21bebaescandon]

Thank you so much for this!!! I have been a bit sad and you made my night!!! Beautiful and amazing places, wow!!!! I love it🙏🏻🙌🏻💌

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Hope your night gets even better! ❤️❤️

[@bernadettedunn6129]

[@totallytania7978]

I love embroidered stuff too!!😍

[@marinamercer7846]

I love Pittsburgh!

[@cynthiadittoe6891]

Love your show! I don’t like mid century modern or modern for that matter but you make the channel so much fun that I watch it!

[@rowenaphilbeck1919]

I love your blue hat! So pretty! Love the bridges in Pittsburgh. I wasn’t able to go thrifting when I was there but after seeing your video I should have. Thanks for the great video

[@maxinemaul8409]

She is so good!

[@janetd4862]

I love the bag dryer! I have memories of my mom in the 60s, washing bags, turning them inside out to get the insides clean, then hanging them up to dry. Then she would fold them up, tie them into a little packet, and they’d go into the bag drawer. Whenever you needed a plastic bag….she had one!

[@brookeperk93]

Loving seeing all the Pittsburgh footage!!!!!!!! Quite literally my backyard ! Hope you loved the Strip District

[@Diana51554]

I really enjoy your channel. One thing that sets it apart from others is your choice of music.I find it very pleasant. Now I want to move to Pittsburgh!

[@CollaborativeDog]

Wow! The painting is an excellent find! What a terrific idea for souvenirs!

[@TheMiliprincepessa]

YAAAY!!! you got the coat!!!!

[@dfletcher7803]

Everything was beautiful!

[@e.e.3583]

Min.14:18 the teak-, or better Mahagoni- or Olive-wooden cups with spoon and lid are meant for salt and pepper😃 All good cooks have them.

[@amyjones2490]

The lights in the first store!

[@flaval24]

My hometown! Beautiful city!

[@leochavez7184]

Great stuff loved it

[@joannetumey4295]

Isn’t Falling Water in Pennsylvania? Mid century modern is everywhere…

[@odettepeters7493]

From PA never been to Pittsburgh on my list since I retired. Thanks for sharing!

[@rebacarmack8335]

That silk coat is beautiful

[@NancyMartinMysteries]

Omg! A painting Ned! What a find!

[@nclare7]

I've learned SO much from you, Laura! Seriously, thank you so much for sharing your MCM knowledge. Most of what I've learned is from watching your channel!

[@mbweis1012]

Our Goodwills are not good like yours! Thanks for showing me some local places I need to visit lol!

[@lorettavalmorbida7793]

Lots of lovely treasures. Great video Laura

[@mariabilbrey1981]

That painting find was awesome! Cool thrifting video!

[@victoriaflemming6338]

Love spending time with you.

[@denisefignar6995]

Welcome to the Burgh♥️

[@heididepotter8136]

Love that amasing sweather! ow both of them And I went crasy when you showed those candleholders in that vitrine cabinet

[@hollysnow5290]

You are on the other side of the world! Enjoyed going along with you in those wonderful stores! Glad you got the painting.

[@maddynavarro77]

Always fun shopping with you Laura! ☺️ 🤎Maddy

[@trishharrison4605]

I’m not surprised you are finding mid-century modern gems in Pittsburgh. There was a lot of wealth in Pittsburgh during the heydays of US Steel and the industries that depended on the steel industry.

[@brendaberry6648]

You were relatively close to the Don Drumm Studio in Akron, Ohio.

[@cathlynmosby2216]

So many great things! Might be one of your best ever. I think you are equipped with a mid century beacon that attracts items, come to mama lol! Love your vids Laura, you do such a fantastic job✌

[@vickiegetchell1741]

I so glad you got that coat! ( emboldened). It was a wonderful cost, and incredible on you. Good job

[@tara1638]

Wow!!! Those two store were amazing! I’m going to have to take a trip to Pittsburg!

[@krisprescott4138]

So shocked to see you go to my local thrift stores! The two goodwills are my closest thrift stores and they are always stinkers. The thrift king was also not good and has recently permanently closed. Wish we could have showed out better but thrilled you found the red white and blue thrift with a painting!
