Come along with me to my first every "Picking Time on 59" event and let's see what items we can score. Thanks for watching :)

The spoons are soup spoons! I love them. The butter knives I collect. They are always on my holiday entertaining tables and conversation pieces every time.

Love the mirror with the wonderful patina and the frames that you got. Thanks for taking us junking with you.

Ha…thanks! They do seem to catch my eye

The group of utensils you bought had one with curly wires . I am 77 and i have my mother's. It is a whisk used to fold in whipped cream or beaten egg whites. Fun to see that!

Oh my! I would have had to buy that SWIFT Beef Brains can. I've never seen one. Didn't know that item existed for retail sale. We had beef brains, but only when my dad had a beef butchered. It was a high priority for my parents and grandparents. I couldn't eat brains and eggs, my gag reflex was triggered by the odor.

That’s a great story and memory! I’m sure I wouldn’t be able to eat them either 😁

You got some great items! Check under your boys' beds for those missing spoons. Ask me how I know! Lol! 😉

Love the mirror, for sure, but they’re all great finds! Also, your hair looks pretty like that🥰

So glad you posted going to this event!!! We hopped in the car and went!! Had a blast and made a haul. Thank You!!!

Love that tri-fold mirror! Would be cool with candlesticks in front of it and the backdrop to a Halloween vignette!

I think those spoon and fork salt and pepper shakers hold onto each other like they are dancing if you put them together. I've seen similar ones that did.

It really was great! Hope you find one!

Those funky animal figures look like they're what some of my family members use for archery: target practice, but they are missing the body, so taxidermy does make sense. Now I'm looking through the other replies. Ha-ha!

Love those blue steins! Fun video. Also, your hair looks fantastic!

Hurry Back, Melanie!

Thanks for taking us along. You did get some cool things. That mirror is my favorite.

Thanks for watching! I agree..that mirror is pretty great!

Oh what fun! I think the spoon is for frying foods. It gets the food out of the grease. The deer forms are for taxidermy. They stretch the hides over the form to create the mount. The one that had the horns looks like the hide didn't make it. Maybe whoever was doing taxidermy decided that wasn't the craft for them! Wouldn't it be cool to take one of those forms and put broken china pieces on it to create a mosaic piece!. Great finds!

Te spoon with wire I believe it was a type of beater, possibly for eggs, the three spoons are probably soup spoons.

Hi Melanie, have always wanted to be able to experience thrifting like that. Absolutely love the tri fold mirror. You found some really nice treasures. Very interesting and informative videos that you post. Wanted to mention also that your hair looked especially nice. Thanks for sharing.

Check out Replacements.com, they have a little search tool where you can take a photo of your piece and they will search their database to try and match the pattern. It’s not perfect… but a cool little tool. And yes, the world of flatware is kind of a bottomless pit 😂 You can spend hours reading and researching to identify one item!

You are correct Those are deer forms for taxidermy

@@LostFoundDecor NP I just know that leaving a comment and hitting the LIKE button always helps the algorithm for your channel. I watch a lot of different resale channels and I know locally it's getting tough with the economy 😞 and it's not going to get easy in the upcoming year for antiques. So hang in there 💪 and the main thing is stay positive. Even in the Great Depression people that where creative became rich 🤑. So keep pushing those videos and pocket money 💲 to buy out people's collection that didn't save. Then when things get better you can come out swinging with deals you got in the bad times. ROCK ON!!!

I think those little spoons are bouillon spoons. People don't serve that anymore.

Love the "Master butter knife", I had no idea...so cool. Love the mirror, love the restaurant ware, love love love the dog! I have about 200 (no, I'm not crazy lol!) Did you buy the old falling apart french book? I totally would have. I make "junk journals" and that book would be awesome for that. Thanks for the fun video!

Are the spoons a soup spoon?

Your outrageous prices are laughable. People are struggling to fill their gas tanks and put food on the table for their families and you're marking up your stuff up hundreds of percents! If you get a deal--give a deal! Good job.

Hi Cindy! Yes, I do mark my items up a good bit, often 60-80% because that matches the online going retail market price. Everything we purchase in our daily lives has been marked up from the original price, that’s the nature of capitalism. I don’t sell things that people need, so I don’t feel that I am depriving anyone from a basic necessity if they can’t afford it. My profit covers all of the other expenses that go into running my business-gas, shipping supplies, website fees, credit card processing fees, and then paying myself for my time. The day I filmed this video I worked 8 hours, plus several more hours of cleaning my items, researching online, and then editing this video.Because I run a business I should get paid for my work. Not everyone thrifting on KZread is running a business, and that’s ok :) But I am, I have 3 children to help provide for and I deserve a paycheck. I will never feel guilty for paying myself for my work, and I don’t think other resellers should either.
