You should def use a penguin ice bucket for raffle tickets or something at your market. It always makes me smile.

We had a penguin ice bucket that came out for every party, bridgeclub, etc. when I was little

Laura, I love how you are putting clips of the staging in directly after finding the items, it is almost like you are drifting off in your imagination to how it will be staged. And it is great for impatient people like me who don't want to wait until the end to see what you will do with your finds! ❤

Agree! A nice touch!

Laura, you are my all time favorite thrifting KZreadr! You are so well spoken and classy, you present yourself and you products well, your videos are edited beautifully and are both fun and educational. Furthermore, I appreciate that your channel is drama-free and so professional. I could just go on and on, girl! Thank you so much for the effort you put forth for your viewers and for taking us on all of your many adventures. I wish you continued success in everything you do and look forward to more of your content. Bravo!

I agree there are thrifters that just thrive on drama for views and put their personal lives out there. No one wants to watch that. We want to see thrifting especially higher value items, not nickel and dime stuff.

The big bowl would made a great birdbath.

That was my 1st thought too, also a fountain.

Welcome home, the big bowl is gorgeous, I am a knitter so I would put different kinds of textured yarn in it. Love it.

Thank you! 🥰

Love how you are showing us what you bought them immediately showing us them styled up! Love that format! Beautiful treasures and styling as always!

The big bowl would be beautiful on a stand or a table with orchids and candles floating. I'm driving from Phoenix to come to your flea market. I can't wait!

That giant bowl could make a nice bird bath atop a pedestal.

Girl look at your hair it’s so long! And, nothing compares to a find immediately followed by design! It’s a total thrill for a thrifter - thank you for your thoughtful connection between finding and styling! So good ❤❤❤❤

Drill a hole in the bottom of the bowl and have it installed as a basin in a guest toilet with some really pretty faucets

I would of loved to go to your left coast revival market! Unfortunately I’m in Florida ugh! Hope to see a video of your booth with all the goodies you had and how you dressed it all up. Please also show us some of the vendors too. Can’t wait to see!

That heavy grand candelabra is perfect for a fireplace-real or faux. Many apartments and bungalows in Chicago have decorative fireplaces.

The bowl on a table as a solitary piece! 👌🥰

Looks like a fun thrifting day. Cant cross the Pacific for the Left Coast Flea. However have to share. I have my first Lisa Laren, the big flat faced cat. So happy.

Your vids are so informative and inspiring 😊 I went to my fav charity shop a few days ago, and I spotted an ikebana vase, purchased for 5.99 USD (I just calculated it real quick), and researched it at home based on the signo at the bottom...it was made by a Hungarian artist probably during the 60s. Colour is turquise which I looove, and with some yellow flowers it looks soo cool even my husband loves it. And I spotted it because I have been watching your content for a while now, so thank you! Sending love from Budapest, Hungary

Laura, I come from a strong marketing background, and you are doing all the right things! From your travels to shopping, clips of staging ideas, sponsoring a flea market and group travels, you are IN IT! I''ve said it before, you are a breath of fresh air, so much fun, so creative and a true pro!!

Aww thanks so much for the kind words and encouragement Carol! I sure love what I get to do for my career! 🥰❤️ I feel so lucky to run my own small business!

Your finds are terrific! You have such talent in staging the beautiful art pieces that you find. 🌻🐕🥰

You have such a good eye for finding great items👀

Nicely organized, clean appearing, Goodwill. Reasonable prices on the items you chose.

Wow, wish I could jump on a plane all the way from Tasmania, Australia for the flea market. ;)

The big bowl is definitely stand alone 🖤🤎

I love your energy and style! What great Goodwill finds! I love that you immediately show the items styled .

Hi, Laura! Great video! Can’t wait to see the Italy videos! I just love you channel! You’re one of my favorites! 🥰👍💜

Oh wow! I haven't heard Don Drumm's name in many years! I graduated from the University of Akron in the early 80s. His studio was about a block from campus. I loved his sunshine faces😃 I wish I appreciated MCM art then as much as I do now!!

Love the DD pieces! And the woodenvase. I love everything from natural materials I would use that bowl as a fruitbowl, I broke my glass one last week. But would be gorgeous on it s own too Love the crochetted surounded botle too. I agree with you comment I always love your staging. Grate finds So sweet to show your co venders too You are such a sweety X

Incredible fines, I would display the bowl alone in the center on my dining room table.

Congratulations on nytch. I can't wait for east coast locations.

That super cool, huge bowl would be gorgeous in a garden on edge.

These videos are exactly what I need after a long day!! I’ve found so many thrift finds that always make me think of you!!❤

I grew up really close to don drums studio and showroom and used to go to it all the time!

Fill that big bowl with large pieces of white coral or seashells! Love it.

You have great GW stores Laura! The few that we have in my area now carry junk, hardly ever a treasure find and the thrift stores are priced outreageous! I am so jealous (in a good way) I love when others find great things.😊 enjoing the informative videos!

I binge watch your videos when I can’t sleep. Kind of obsessed; in a good way 😉 The big bowl would make for an amazing zen garden. Just a thought ✌🏻

Wow Laura you have done it - can’t wait to see you at the weather coast flee in mid July ;)

Yet another polished presentation, Laura. Love how you edited this video. Your content is absolutely the very best on KZread. So appreciate your hard work and effort. 💙🩵🤍

LAURA you made my day can't do much hurt my back almost two weeks ago after seeing your viedo i felt better you found so many beautiful things the big bowl i would set on a table empty 🥰🦋🦋🦋🌻🌻🌻🐝

I, too, have gone back to the thrift stores to see if a matching item was put out later!

I WOULD TRY TO PUT THE GIANT BOWL IN A STAND SO THE ENTIRE DESIGN CAN BE SEEN. YOU AE SURE TO COME UP WITH THE REST-YOU DECORATE SO GROOVY!

I would put the bowl on an easel and style it on a shelve or above kitchen cabinets.😊

Laura you are looking good and vibrant on this beautiful day. I guess that supplemental drink is doing it’s thang! You are so patient and find the greatest stuff. Thank you for sharing your research with us and encouraging us to do the same.

I would leave that big bowl as a stand alone piece, or during the fall/winter, I would add water and a couple of floating candles

Oh Yay🎉my favorite Left Coast Girl! I can’t wait to meet you in a few days!! 🧡

Oh I love that little black horse in your display, I want to get one so bad. Maybe someday.

I love your taste and aesthetics. I’ve been picking up a lot of wood and art pottery lately.

Well done Laura. 🎉🎉 You are doing amazing things. I wish I lived in the USA 🇺🇸 to come to the Vintage Flea. 😢🤩 It sounds like it is going to be amazing, and so does the Nych App. I love shopping in second hand stores, fleamarkets, etc, and digging for my own treasures. Shopping on line is great but there is nothing like brick and mortar, individual unique shops. I like to see, touch, and feel things that I am buying. We definately need to support small businesses and take back our power from large corporations and super stores. Bring back shopping local. I can't wait to see your adventure in Italy being Italian myself. You found some lovely items on this haul as always. Great vision. The goblet is beautiful and the huge candle holder. Good luck to you and all the vendors at the Vintage Flea. 🍀👏👏🎉

I wish I could come to the Flea Market Sale so bad, 8i saw so many beautiful things.

I found a penguin ice bucket here in nova scotia Canada in a salvation army store.i know they are not your favorite but I love it . 8.00 made my day thrifting

Welcome back Laura😊😊 I cannot wait to see your Italy finds.

Heyyyy love love your shows and finds!! I’m here in Akron Ohio. And Don Drumm is an icon here in town. Love his work. And I actually have my office with an early wall done by him ❤❤❤ I love his work. We only call him Don. Just wanted to let you know. 😝

You are so lucky to be in that area ,I'm lucky if I find one piece in this pottery style every 3 or 4 months.and have never found brutalist pieces. I do however find PENGUIN BUCKETS

That bowl is a stand alone beauty.

Would love to see that ginormous bowl displayed on the wall somehow !!

I cant believe you left the lama critter. What got intol you ? It was white and so adorable.

You definitely get the best stuff at your Goodwills!!

Put totilla chips in the big bowl with small dip bowls all around it when you entertain

I was suprised you didn’t get those big wooden bowls

My first thought for that bowl was "I would hang it on my fence" :)

Thanks didn't know how to use the flower frogs until this video. LOL!!! I would her you talk about them and see you pick up a few, but I never seen anyone use them. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Laura, welcome back,love the tan!the big bowl would make a great bread basket 😉💐

I just think you are the coolest 😎. I watch a few other thrifters, but you are definitely my favorite. You are knowledgeable and fun, and I love that you aren't afraid to pass on what you know. Keep up the great work! ❤

I think this the best video of styling your finds that you have ever done! Simply beautiful!

The matching silver goblet is at another local Goodwill. I betcha. Enjoy your content. ❤

Great finds! I love how you use live greenery and plants to decorate with!

You were away but we were warmed by your shopping trip down the coast. It was so fun. We never missed a beat. Well planned Laura. Wish I could come to your flea market but I live in North Carolina.

It always amazes me the things you find at Goodwill. I can go and go and out store shelves are hardly filled. I’m happy for you though👍👍

I enjoyed the sneak peeks for the market.

So funny, I picked up that Drumm silver goblet and honest to goodness thought "Laura would like this!" I didn't know the artist but could tell it was unique, but I left it behind because it's a little too wacky a shape for me. So you're welcome 😉

No I definitely would not put fruit in that beautiful piece of art! I would find a sturdy bowl stand and dress it out amongst some contrasting pieces and beautiful decorum!😍❤️

Okay question /when you show how inexpensive you find your items at goodwill it’s going to cost a lot when you sell at the Portland expo correct? I have a lot I have been buying to sell I think I will try to do a booth next year. I finally went to Portland for 7 days while you were in Italy and found amazing items. It was my little dream come true for 2023

I found my penguin ice bucket in 2005 . I was thrilled...and no matter how many show up now... I've had mine for 18 years and I still love it!❤

What a great vlog!! I am so proud of your business and the fantastic and passionate way you live your life.

I’m here for the cool wood pieces you find. I adored your hands chairs

So happy you're back.

I would just put the Bowl on the dining room table with nothing in it It is a statement in it's self Good video everything's great that you have for sale

Laura, your knowledge never fails to amaze me. I learn so much. Next time I’m going to take notes! What a fabulous thrifting video with beautiful finds. Thank you for sharing with us!

SO sad I can’t make it to the market - especially sour because Sunday the 16th is my birthday! I hope it is SO much fun! Hopefully you have some time during the event to share the scene with us. The other vendors have BEAUTIFUL items!

The bell shaped vase could maybe be made into a wind chime. Drill a hole in it and hand a clapper on a cord through it

Laura the bowl would look lovely with sea shells in it.

Nice wood candlestick... I was born in Grand Island, NE !

Bowl is a platter for salads couscous or serving pastadishes etc

Your hair looks glorious! 🙌🏻❤

that was a great video 🎉🎉 Can’t wait to be there that weekend! ❤❤❤

I know what our cat would do,curl up in it and nap.😊

I have several bowls like that. I use them stand alone and on their sides on an easle as backdrops. I lost my glasses so sorry if this is gibberish.

Great finds. I love how you style up your finds. Beautiful 😊

You styled everything beautifully!

I love that you show how you style items that you buy. Very inspiring!

Fill with water & have floating candles in

Yahoo! Happy Friday to me. 😊

Great video. I probably use the large bowl for my knitting yarn.

I would float flowers in that big bowl.

I was just at that Goodwill 3 days ago & I found nothing! I cannot believe the items you find! You really have the thrifting Gods shining down on you!😊 I loved those 3 wooden bowls (at least the top 2) that were next to the 2 green plastic bowls that you thought were marble. Edit- I am so bummed that I won’t be able to make it to the market on Saturday the 15th, but I will be there on Sunday the 16th. Better late than never I suppose. I look forward to seeing you again. 😊 I just downloaded Nytch!!

Laura, you are never alone; when traveling through the states, you have all of us ❤❤❤ glad you are back. This was a packed video, really enjoyed it ! Laura Happy Birthday 🎂❤

I love the black top you are wearing!

I would luv to see a live then! Great selections🌺
