The Antique Inventory Doom Pile

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Nothing feels better than completing projects out of the inventory doom pile. As an antique dealer, and probably most of us that are, I have a doom pile of small projects, and items that need to be cleaned/priced. Now that the garage has been organized I can more easily get to work on the doom pile. DOOM stands for Didn't Organize Only Moved. Hilarious because that is exactly what I did on Vlogmas day 1 this year. Even though I had a few set backs with the glass I was I working with, I still feel like I got some solid work done. Cleaning, what felt like, a cluttered house has made me feel a lot better and I'm excited to get more done! Vintage and Antique Inventory Doom Piles are no joke! Hope you all enjoy Vlogmas 2022 Day 13.

    I am enjoying my first vlogmas with your channel. I am fascinated by what you choose to put in your booth and how you prep and stage it. I have always enjoyed visiting antique shops so it is fun to see a behind the scenes channel.

    Watching your glass struggles definitely struck a chord! I broke 5 glass shelves dropped the top shelf & stood back in horror as the last four dropped to the ground & then I cried. This happened the day I was to move into my first antique booth. We've all been there!

    Religious prints would always sell so well in my booth. Especially if you framed them and added paint brush texture to them. I did a video on my channel a while back. Super easy profit. Also, the tab guns that put the little tabs on the back of picture frames really help prevent glass breaking at that last stage of putting in the nails. I also use it for securing glass in cabinets etc. It's a dull purchase but so handy. Check them out.

    I loved the textured look on the pots- once the left over baking soda was brushed off it was obvious. Nicely done! And glass work is dicey...you gave it a go! I'm impressed with your learning on the go with the cutter!

    Old glass is very difficult to cut ….it’s brittle and doesn’t cut well. What happened to you is typical. Mike is right glass can be brittle in cold temperatures….we have owned a glass business for 30 years…it’s definitely a talent and I give you credit for your efforts

    I admire that you gave glass cutting a try - it's a thankless job. One comment on the fish prints - love the prints, but you need more space around the fish for them to show off to their best. Also, use archival backing boards instead of using the old cardboard - better for the print's longevity and it looks professional. I would rethink the green mat for the owls. Love your channel and all the staging.

    You said that second piece of glass was thin.....that's why it broke. Have you considered making an "aged" mirror for that small frame using mirror paint and a spray bottle? Would look cool!😍 Vlogmas is stressful but thanks so much for doing it for us. We adore you.

    Happy Thursday. You guys getting ice on that side of the mountain ?? I’ll bet the experts at the mirror & glass shop would be so willing to teach you a few things about cutting glass. Not to mention if they saw and knew how you went about it, they’d be impressed and happy to teach you. But good on you for your determination. And enjoy being able to apply mascara without the aid of magnified mirrors….😂😂

    You’ve got to learn to cut glass! It’s not difficult AND you can do stained glass type stuff and or repairs. All you have to do is measure with a straight edge, get a glass wheel cutter, dip it in oil/kerosene and roll it down line. Put pressure on the score and bada-boom😁
