The pottery duck @ 17:18 is a Margaret Hudson piece. She had quite a following in the CA Central Valley. I have several of her pieces that my husband bought for me in Fresno, CA. PS you may want to check the volume level on your video- I had to turn mine up to full volume to hear you - then got blasted out with every commercial break.

I had to turn my laptop up to 100 and them play with the speaker volume during commercials. Can't always be perfect.

Has anyone mentioned the volume of your videos? I wish you could turn it up. Love watching your finds, but I can barely hear you without turning my phone up to the highest point and then the ads blast my ears. Just a suggestion.

Thank you. I noticed it too!

Haha! I didn’t see a single penguin! I was so sad. I am the keeper of penguins! I only have 2 right now but if I find them for $20 or less, I get them. Anytime I take them to a get together, somebody comments they’d like one. I like to keep a backstock for 🎁! My daughter in law does parties for work and family, and she, my son, and her brother are all gourmet cooks. At Christmas she did a kinda charcuterie table for work and she used it fot something hot. She said she could use another one and I just happened to have an extra. And my granddaughter didn’t have one, so I had one for her.

Not a shaker. A West Bend insulated ice bucket.

Thank you Laura! I’ve been in & out of the hospital for the past year, I miss thrifting & your videos make my heart happy

The wooden Italian bowl is a “grolla” and you make a specific alcoholic drink in it and yes, you pass it around. It’s traditional of Aosta valley.

And a very good alcoholic drink i might add 😅

My hometown! Yay Reno!!! Yes, the volume is low. Love your creativity so much;)))

Congratulations on the Bitossis! I'm supposed to be working but now I have thrifting on the mind.

You're right about the Italian friendship cup! It's for friendship coffee! I found one for $15 a couple months ago at a thrift store. When I did my research I learned that friendship coffee is coffee with alcohol.😊

I live in Reno and I didn't know there were so many thrift stores here, other than Goodwill and Junkie.

A few years back, I found a great St. Vincent de Paul thrift in Reno. Amazing clothing and prices. Also, if you're ever in Winnemucca, you need to find the Frugal Flamingo.

I literally just sit and wait each day for you to post and binge watch you until a new one comes!!😍

I know, right?!

I had to giggle because you had already signed off and there you were in another thrift shop. i'm glad you found the Betosis! They are so cute. And the Squash Blossom! Wow!

That Picasso inspired art was FABULOUS! Those blue napkins with the white embroidery looked like maybe those were bees? Love the fashion drawings! And I am so grateful for your eclectic style! It’s so inspiring! Thanks for showing us Reno!

Oh my gosh!!! I have been looking for a squash blossom necklace for about 3 years!!! I wish I could find one like that for 950!!!! Dang!

Does anyone else check every day, for a new video from Laura???

I really enjoy your videos! Jessie is very funny. I'm learning something new every time I watch!

Most of the items in my house came from flea market in Europe when we were stationed overseas 72-96.

iT's called a Grolla, and yes, you fill it with some type of wine and pass it around. My parents owned one- it was gifted to them when they were visiting relatives in Italy

Laura please turn the volume up. Some of us are older. ❤️

I’m so amazed how you can remember all the designers’ names, details about the styles, and values! It’s so much knowledge/information to memorize!

The “pokey” thing is a floral frog. Put in bottom of vase for flower stems. PS I can hear you just fine.

Mmmk. I haven't even started watching it yet; I wanted to comment to say how excited I was to see that a new Laura Caldwell video was up **AND** it's 41 minutes long, toooo?!? ❤🙌🥰

That squash blossom necklace is stunning❗️😍

Try negotiating the price on an item you love, but is slightly over budget. I tied it at a Goodwill and it worked! I got a really nice table fire pit and 4 chairs for only $125; $50 off the posted price!

wow...the squash necklace is amazing!!!

LOL! the corn on the cob pans, I had two one from my mother in law and one from her mother. I gave them to my daughter, who made brownies in them, frosted with fudge frosting and called them "turds" for a themed Halloween party

I've lived in Reno for 6 years and sometimes you will find some really good stuff in Goodwill as well! I wished I looked around more back then, but I am back home in Vegas now. I hope I can find a good deal on some art deco pieces / furniture.

Those wooden bowls I use to stack my pottery bowls. Sets them up nicely

Yes! Volume needs adjusting. I love that you found all the bowls.❤

Your thrifting adventures are GOALS!!!

I have made corn bread in one of those cast iron cornbread pans. It was my father’s mother, so my Grammy Higgins.

Love the matchy matchy.

Could you do a video on what to look for when looking for vintage jewelry? Thank you!

That cornear cornbread pan is all I have from my Big Momma/Mother! Yes, I have made cornbread sticks in it!🙏🏾💜🦋💛

Welcome to Reno! I've lived here for almost 3 years and hadn't been to all these stores - thanks for the tour!

The Italian Friendship cup is a Grole. 😊

I have one of the friendship cup. You pour liquor in and then it is passed around and everyone has one hole to drink from. I got it in a small village in the Aosta valley in northern Italy. They are generally hand carved from a nice wooden piece. Quite intriguing, no?

Ah! I clicked so fast when I saw you came to Reno! My favorite thrifter in my hometown. Now I know which stores to hit up this weekend 😉

I love your videos, but I had a hard time hearing this one. I had my headphones turned up all the way and still struggled, and I don't have hearing issues.

Yes there are some ducks that have a buff of feathers on their head. I found a hand carved wooden duck last month,

I have never see fashion illustrations like that, they’re gorgeous

i am amazed that you picked up three random pieces and they look like you planned it, your style shines through

Check the tire pressure with a loaded car

The blossom necklace was Fab.

My sister lives about 39 minutes outside Reno in Dayton, so the next time I visit her I am going to have to check out the thrifting scene there!

Does anyone else struggle to hear the videos?? I really miss hearing Laura's videos!.. all my volumes are at 100%.....any help out there?? Thanks!

Mine is turned down to about 1/4 and it’s just fine. :)

Oh those italian plates I collect. They also have bricks 😊

Reno must be the ONLY town without your infamous "ICE BUCKET" 🤣🤣

OK, I have two vases at home. One small and the other large, depending on the size of the flowers.

At the timestamp 15:30 those those are borrow glass rods they are worth a pretty penny to the flame Work glassworker. Shoot, I wish I were there I would’ve bought those in a heartbeat.

Your videos make me happy. 😊 I love to shop with you virtually.

I get so excited when you have a new video! I get kind of hypnotized while watching all the great things you find. Not only are your videos fun, but they're also very educational.

I live in Virginia City, NV, and I used to shop Reno thrift stores years ago. I didn't know about the first 3 places, but I'm glad you found Junkee's. I spent a lot of time lots of time and cash when I was there last. Both my daughter and I love it there. She takes in her clothes and gets credit for other clothes! Last time we both were there, she had to have an armadillo purse with red gemstone eyes! I didn"t know the other places either! I got some shoppin' to do! That was a fun trip and only 35 mins. away from my home!!!!

OMG!! The Bitossi birds are such a great find. I have two and yours are at a wonderful price.!!!

I used to watch Robin Leachs show all the time. I loved it. So far you have some amazing pieces and im so excited to see them together. You take tge ordinary and make it fabulous. Someone mentioned the volume of your videos. They can be loud sometimes just fyi.

You are a breath of fresh air! And you got an EYE for extraordinary pieces! Love your content!!

I'd buy that ice textured carafe, very Iittala 😊

Just love all the vintage things you pick up.

Love the vases beautiful finds ❤️🦘🐨

What a trip! Love all of the surprising finds!!

Love the vases, great video.

OH my goodness....that yellow lady is spectacular. That painting would be so beautiful on my wall :)

It’s worth looking out for European linens,and ticking fabric they go for a lot of money

Awesome thing's

So many wonderful finds, you are my favorite to shop with Laura!

Love the brass box also❤

I love your videos am a new subscriber from NewZealand, love your style,I have so many wood turned pieces lol and random pottery from op shops, after seeing for videos I want more😂😂

Wowzers so many thrift stores and awesome finds.

Absolutely fabulous finds Laura 😃 I just loved the beautiful two toned blue vase so much 😍

Yes !! There so awesome!

I always get so excited when your vlogs pop up and Wow!... Reno is definitely now on the list for my road-trip of the US west. Amazing haul Laura and can't wait to see what's coming next :)

Great shopping and finds in Reno thank you

Wow great finds. 😊. Love shopping along with you.

What awesome thrift stores and it looked like you had a blast. Love every one of your treasures. Now I can't wait for Klamath and Bend.

Love the painting, zebra planter, linen napkins, Italian vase❤

Omgosh! Safe travels home!

Omg! I recently picked up the table cloth like the blue and white set that you got! The application of the white give a hand made feel! So cool

Hi, Laura! What great finds you got at the Reno shops. Love the video! 🥰👍💜

I LOVE the way you present yourself, your jewelry is so cool! ❤

The Bitossi bowls are stunning!

Oh Laura! I enjoy your videos so much!

Wonderful finds! I admire you so much...

As usual, such great fun! When you came upon all those Bitossi pheasants, I gasped for you. Dream score.

I’m drooling over all of your finds.

LOVE the vintage oil painting! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

I really look forward to your videos. They are fun, informative and you are a delight! 😍

I KNEW you had been in Klamath Falls, I saw your cards for the Left Coast Flea when my girlfriends and I were over there thrifting a weekend before last. The couple at the antique store had them on the counter! Woohoo! Klamath was great, we found so many good deals between Goodwill, the hospice stores and the antique/vintage store. Hope you did as well (and the Reno stores look amazing. Yes, we in Southern Oregon have a tendency to visit Reno frequently as it isn’t too far to go from us!)

Yes i have those cast iron corn molds and have made corn bread in them several times. 😄

Laura, I have such a love of brass especially the black enamel vases or some say they are candle holders. You used to pick them up but not lately. I have found two at different times and just love them so much. Loved the beautiful brass box.

I love a good road trip/thrift experience! My mom and I once traveled the back roads from Missouri to Utah and stopped at the garage sales. It was a blast!

I just found you on KZread! I have loved every video. You have great taste and your creativity is spilling over. I love it! So happy to watch you have fun and you’ve made me take another look at pottery and art like I never have before! Thank you!!!

Your knowledge amazes me. I learn so much. I not only enjoy the hunt of the thrifting video, but I feel like I get a mini education so thank you for that. This was yet another great video Miss Laura!!

These places have been so jam packed with treasures. Must have been hard to keep to a schedule. I’ll bet you could’ve spent DAYS in Reno. What a lot of history in this Wild West place!

I think those things you were calling horses are dragons

You have willpower! After the good luck in your last store , I would be tempted to say “just one more!”

The ceramic bird is by the amazing artist Margaret Hudson. I think you would love her body of work. Her focus is animals just like our beloved Lisa Larson.

Great video! Love all your choices. 😊💖

Yes, I love the cornbread corn stick pans and I have made cornbread in them!! 🌽🌻🌽

Hi Laura. Really enjoying your triffttig road trip. So much beautiful items it is amazing. Thank you for sharing.

Amazing. I've missed you! You teach me so much!!

Amazing stores and finds. I think a road trip to reno is in my future. ❤❤❤❤ the first store!
