Buying Antiques from a Georgian House, Antiques Market & Salvage Fair! Here's What We Found
5 Video Views·Apr 27, 2026
Come on one of our biggest and best Antique Hunts! First up, we scored some amazing treasures from a private house clearance at a Georgian farmhouse that a family was clearing out of. Then Holly and I hit the first Bridport Vintage Market of the year and found a few new pieces to stock our antique shop , a few really interesting finds!
Next, I cleared out the last bits from our old shop at Antiques Bazaar, before heading over to our new shop at the Antiques Village in Hele to drop off all our new finds and give the place a proper fill-up. Finally, we went treasure hunting at a salvage fair in Tiverton and couldn’t resist picking up even more unique antiques and vintage pieces.
Okay, so this is really exciting in this video.
Basically, I'm really sorry I couldn't film it,
but I went to a private house clearance, basically,
and it was at this really nice Georgian farmhouse,
manor house sort of style thing.
I'll put some photos of it on the screen.
It was really lovely.
And basically, they were just clearing out,
and I had the opportunity to go
because they listed something on Facebook,
and I said, yes, absolutely,
and then they started sending me loads of photos,
and I went there and cleared out as much as I could.
So I've got some pieces,
new pieces to show you.
I wish I could've taken you around
because it was awesome.
And also, I hope you guys enjoyed the Falmouth video.
I realized I didn't properly show you guys
this chest of drawers here.
So this is the pitch pine chest of drawers
that we got from Falmouth in the last video,
and that'll be coming to the shop for us.
Now, the good thing about the shop is
that we have basically sold out, haven't we, Ho?
Yes, we have.
Yeah, we've sold the big pine chest of drawers,
the small pine chest of drawers,
the sideboard, the table.
We've sold all of the furniture, mostly, I think, right?
Bar one yellow cabinet.
Yeah, bar one piece, and it's incredible.
So it's such good timing
that we had this mega house call-out, basically.
I'm gonna show you some of the pieces.
So firstly, I'll let Holly tell you
what's going on in this one
because this was just a really rustic,
sort of really run-down cabinet,
shelving unit, pot cupboard,
whatever you wanna call it.
And she's kind of worked some magic on it.
Well, we used some paint that we already had, didn't we,
that we did on the project on another piece.
Yes.
And we thought it would look quite a nice color.
It's quite a nice rustic green color, isn't it?
Yeah.
Typical country home color,
and then sort of rubbed it down and varnished it,
and it's come up really nicely.
Really nice, yeah, very pleased with it.
The only bit I don't like on it
is this little back thing,
but I don't really wanna ruin the wood by taking it off.
And then, so, also from that same house, I got this.
Now, I gotta admit,
I don't really know exactly what this is.
It's either a meat safe or a larder cupboard,
likely to be Victorian, and this is awesome.
And apart from, there's another shelf just down there,
but apart from these horrible,
wallpapery sort of things that people do,
I don't like that.
But if we can get that off,
give this a bit of a clean out.
And then down here as well,
I guess that's where you put your meat
or whatever it is, goods, et cetera.
So yeah, it's a really nice piece.
We didn't do any work to it
other than just changing the handles
because they were these really horrible plastic ones.
So I put these cast iron style ones on,
and that looks a lot better.
But yeah, this is really nice.
Really pleased with that.
The main event, sort of why I went to this coolout anyway,
this lady listed these Chester drawers on Facebook,
and I messaged her really fast,
and I was just like, right,
I will be there at four o'clock
because these are so nice,
and they're so up our alley.
You know, they're so run down and distressed.
It's a lovely Victorian pine Chester drawers,
or maybe 19th century pine Chester drawers, whatever.
We will holly, I should say, sand at the top down
because it was almost unusable,
like, and now she's made it a lot nicer,
and it still, you know, has all the wear,
and like, you know.
I think someone might have used it
as like a workshop sort of Chester drawers.
I'm not 100% sure.
Now, it did come with these horrible handles,
which I've taken off and put these black ones on,
which is cool.
Also had like broken runners, so I put those in.
I'm not the best handyman in the world, but it worked.
So yeah, so yeah, love these.
They're not gonna be loads of money,
but I just think they're a real statement piece,
and yeah, I quite like the yellow on that one, but yeah.
Anyway, I think that works really well.
Now, this is quite rare.
I didn't really realize this at the time.
The lady was like, do you wanna take a chance on it?
And I was like, sure, why not?
So I bought this one,
and it turns out that this is
a War Savings Campaign RAF plaque.
Now, I think these were given to like towns or something,
like the town councils would have them.
I don't know the exact origins of these.
All I know is they're really rare.
I didn't know that at the time,
so I just bought it, and I thought,
oh, I've seen something like it before,
but these RAF ones, I looked back at auctions
for the last like 10 years, and it turns out
I've only seen about four sold,
and they sold between three to 400 pound.
So that was probably one of, if not,
one of the best buyers of the day.
It's got no damage.
It's basically a Bakelite wool plaque
that'll hang on a wall or whatever the case.
So yeah, really pleased with that.
Not really into military stuff myself, but.
I am, love it.
Holly's into it, which is good,
but yeah, I think that's really cool.
You always get the ones with like the soldiers,
which have a lot lesser value,
but the RAF ones seem to be really rare.
So yeah, got that.
Keep going on the theme of the same house,
because bear in mind, these all came from the same house.
I'll just pull these chest of drawers out of the way.
Now, if you look down here, you will see
what looks like a very, very nice
old wooden oak club fender,
because that's what I thought it was at first,
and they had it in front of the fireplace,
and I was like, whoa, that is mega.
That looks really nice.
Now, I've done some research by asking my dad
and a couple of other people,
and we believe it's an alter rail.
Now, that's not so exciting,
but the fact it is either 16th or 17th century,
it's quite hard to tell from the front,
but if you look at the back,
yeah, it is like 16th or 17th century,
and to be honest with you,
it works amazing as a club fender.
I just thought it might have been
a really, really early club fender at first,
because you do get oak ones,
but no, it turns out it's like an alter rail,
but to be honest, we might put it down
as club fender slash alter rail,
because alter rails come out of churches
and things like that, but they don't sell well.
However, I think, imagine that in front of your fireplace.
Don't you think it'd look nice?
If it was something that I was gonna purchase, yeah,
I'd definitely put it in a big house fireplace.
Now, the good thing about it is it's still really rare,
but just not many people are after an alter rail,
but a lot of people might want
something in front of the fireplace
that you can sit on and stuff,
and it is 17th century,
so I'm not gonna sit on it for too long.
Anyway, I don't know what price it at.
So, anyway, what else came from the house?
So over here, behind Holly, from the same house,
picked up a couple other bits and pieces as well.
I'll start with this,
because this is an early tool chest,
and I don't really know exactly the details on it,
but it's just really nice.
It's got the nice handles,
and there's absolutely nothing wrong with it
other than it's just been used.
They had to tip all the tools out of it,
but yeah, they sell really well,
and it's a good size one too,
so I was quite pleased with that.
Complimented by Henry Hoover.
From the same house as well,
got this chimney garden pot.
Now, I wouldn't normally buy these,
but this is a pool pottery one.
Kinson Pool Pottery.
It was a good price.
We'll probably sell it quite affordable, cheaply.
Just pool pottery chimney pots, quite cool.
Then got this chair.
Now, it's a bit loose back here on the wood,
like the joins,
but this is, I believe,
a 19th century bow back, I think that's what they call them,
chair, probably elm or ash,
but yeah, if you just look in here at the wood,
you can see I don't really know much about it
other than it's got it on the back here too.
It's just really nice.
It's very early.
It's got a little bit of damage,
but I'm not gonna complain, really,
because it is an early one,
and then underneath here,
it says something, something, something,
Croydon, so it's been stamped as well.
Probably need to do a little bit more research on that one.
I just went with my gut.
She was, bless them,
they were clearing out a house
because they had to move the next day,
and as you saw from the photos,
it is a lovely house,
and every kind of piece is lovely,
and obviously, they kept all the best stuff,
and I just took the drips and drabs,
but I am over the moon,
so got that, got that, got that.
Also got this little stool.
I don't really know anything about it
other than I just thought it was a cool little milking stool
or three-legged wooden stool, quite rustic,
but it actually has a label still in here,
like an old label for London, Southampton,
Winchester, Bournemouth,
for like a furniture place,
so nothing crazy, just a nice stool.
And then, just to Holly's right,
got this as well,
which doesn't look like a lot right now,
but it's actually quite a nice Victorian pine cabinet.
It's just a shame it's been absolutely layered with paint,
like a lot of paint,
but inside, I had to peel off some wallpaper,
but you can see,
it actually could be a very nice cabinet
if maybe the white came off.
What we're probably gonna have to do is repaint it,
because I don't think you're getting all that white paint off
because there's white paint,
and then there's cream paint,
then you finally get to the wood,
and by the time you've done all that,
you're gonna lose that nice early wood color,
so you're probably gonna have to paint it
and put some nice door handles on.
Got a couple ready to go.
And then over here,
there's still stuff from the same house, mind.
Over here in this corner,
this came out of that house as well.
Don't really know a lot about it,
other than I thought it was a pretty little chair,
and I just went with my gut, basically,
but from my research,
I've seen someone else in Antique Village
selling one of these for 175.
It's probably sold by now
because it's quite an old photo,
but I don't know what it's worth,
but nice chair.
Yeah, quite like that one.
And then, what else have I been doing?
We've been doing a lot at the moment.
Follow me back around through the kitchen,
and, Sarah, we're doing a whole tour of the house.
I also stopped by our local antique shop
called The Alleyways,
just as an off chance that I might find something,
and I actually found this.
And if you've been watching for a while,
you know that we've had one of these before,
and it sold really, really quickly.
It's a Victorian spice tower.
It's one, two, three, four.
It's got five compartments.
The last one we had had four.
You can still see the remnants of the labels,
where it's like mace and probably nutmeg and stuff.
Unfortunately, it's been a little bit damaged,
but from my experience, they all are.
They all had wood that split.
The bottom bit is a bit loose, as you just saw.
It nearly came off.
But yeah, it's been a bit split here and here.
But again, it was the price that I paid for the last one,
and I think this one is actually better.
So I bought that as well from Alleyways.
And then, follow me back around here.
We've got more stuff.
Last bits, I promise.
Sorry I haven't shown you all the buying side of this,
because I wish I did, but there was just so much going on.
Also from Alleyways yesterday, I saw this little cabinet.
Now, this is a little 18th century cabinet.
Could be a smoker's cabinet or something like that.
But the wood is very, very nice,
and it is in actually quite decent condition.
So yeah, in here, I think they've just had
to change the hinges on this one,
because it's missing one.
But this side is totally fine.
That's what it should look like.
And obviously, the lock's gone here as well.
But, you know, it's 18th century.
I think it's a smoker's cabinet.
I think that's what they're called.
And the last time I tried to buy one of these
was at Shepton Flea Market, and they wanted 150 quid,
and it was worse condition.
And they sold it.
So yeah, bought this one for a lot less than that
at Alleyways yesterday, yeah?
So I'm really pleased with that.
At the same time, picked out this sideboard,
dresser base, whatever you call it.
I believe it's like pine,
and it's had like a reclaimed top on, I think.
But it's actually solid, really nice quality,
and it's like stock that can go straight in the shop.
Because obviously, we sold all the furniture,
so I was like, all right, let's just go and have a look,
see what's there.
And this is the kind of thing we do, isn't it?
Like, you know, pine sideboard, reclaimed wood.
That's kind of right up our street, isn't it, Har?
Yeah, it's really nice.
It's a nice size as well, I'd say.
It's great.
Yeah, so I just like this sideboard.
And to be honest with you,
it'd look really nice in our house.
But, oh yeah, I just like that one.
So that'll be coming to the shop as well.
And then the last thing I've got,
I don't think I've shown you this.
Now this is a mirror that I bought from Duke's Auction.
You've seen me buying there before.
There's Holly in the mirror.
Hey, guys.
Yeah, this is just a brass arts and crafts mirror.
If any of you guys wanna tell me about this,
that'd be great.
Because I thought it could be Liberty, right?
If you look here, you know, these little bits here,
these are like Scottish-style emblems or whatever.
I don't know.
I don't really know.
I don't think I'll find out.
But it's very, very, very similar.
It's very in the manner of Liberty, I'll say that.
So yeah, got this one, beveled edge.
And yeah, the only thing I had to do
was change the picture wire,
which I don't even know if I've done that right.
But yeah, it's ready to go.
Be hung in the shop.
Oh, do that again.
You can see the dogs in it.
You can see the dogs?
No, you have to go down lower.
Lower?
My fair side.
The mirror has to face me.
Hi, Olive.
You got it?
It's quite heavy.
Sorry.
Okay.
Anyway, I think that's sort of everything
that I've picked up.
And again, I'm sorry I didn't film any of this.
I really didn't wanna film this woman
who's trying to clear out her mom's house like in a day.
Well, you know, so, but yeah,
a lot of nice pieces that you saw.
I don't think there's anything this way.
Maybe.
It's a bit messy, this side of the house,
because this is my side of the house.
This is your one junk room.
And then there's a few other bits and pieces in here.
Some stuff's coming to the shop this weekend.
Some stuff I need to sort.
See, there's a rug which we can put down finally.
Should be a nice one.
Yes, that'll make it look homely.
Hanging lights, things like that.
I need to do some of this.
Might just take it to the shop, stick it on the wall.
Yeah, it's quite cool.
And then we're obviously gonna take all this to the shop,
so we'll show you that.
And that'll probably be in the next bit of the video.
So yeah, hope you guys like what I bought.
But it is, yeah, being mega.
So me and Holly have come down
to the Breadpot Vintage Market,
which actually looks really good today.
So we're just gonna have a look around,
see what's around.
But yeah, we'll try and show you as much as we can.
You all right?
Yeah.
Did you like it?
I'm loving it, yeah.
It's good, isn't it?
So we're at the Breadpot Vintage Market
down on St. Michael's Trading Estate.
There's a few antique shops around, which we've been to,
and I think we've featured in videos.
But yeah, they have a little market
on the last Sunday of every month.
And yeah, it's quite interesting.
I've already bought something.
So hopefully we can do a bit more buying.
But yeah, it looks pretty good.
So the market goes all along past the other antique shops
and just keeps going and going.
And the Alleyways guys have also managed
to get some stuff outside of their shop.
We're gonna have a look in there in a bit, actually,
see if we find anything.
But yeah, keep looking around the market first.
Look at that boat down the bottom.
Yeah.
That's cool, isn't it?
It's like got copper around it and stuff.
It's really nice.
Was it a children's boat?
Don't know.
Yeah, maybe.
I just think it's quite cool.
I like that a lot.
Nice boat.
We have done some walking around.
Oh God, it's loud.
We've done some walking around.
We've bought a couple of pieces, haven't we?
Yeah, we have, yeah.
They're very nice pieces.
A couple of small pieces,
but just a couple of interesting ones.
But we're gonna keep looking.
But it's really loud.
I really like the table.
How much is it?
1.99.
I like it because I paint the legs a bit black.
Make it all nice and rusty.
This is a nice table.
Hey.
Kind of tucked away in this little corner right now.
But yeah, we're in this really cool shop.
Didn't actually see what it's called.
This is a lot of circus-y stuff in here.
Yeah.
Like there's a sign up there.
Fairgrounds and stuff, yeah.
You've got games, a lot of big, bright flags.
It can sell really well.
I just don't know much about it.
The, whatever's behind there.
There's loads of different stuff.
It's cool, isn't it?
I really like that sort of stuff.
Yeah.
Because I feel like,
oh, the circus, this isn't,
well, back then.
Way different to this now.
Here's some more circus-y stuff that Holly was on about,
like signs and stuff.
Yeah, cool sign.
You've got like a round,
I think there's loads of them,
where you'd create a really round circle
and then you'd put like a ring of fire in there.
Yeah.
I'm like hidden down this little thing,
and it looks like,
if someone saw Holly,
she looks like she's talking to herself.
Loser.
Mean.
Cool little shop there.
So we are now in the Alleyways Antique Shop,
and we're just having a bit of a look around, really.
Don't think we'll buy much here, but.
There's a couple pieces that I do like.
There is a couple pieces, but not.
We're not as successful as the last time we came in here.
Yeah, last time was mega successful,
earlier on in this video.
Holly really liked this cabinet.
It is cream,
and it has been painted
and then sort of like sanded off a bit.
But it's actually like a really solid,
like farmhouse sort of cupboard, isn't it?
I really like it.
I like how this is darker.
Mm.
The distressed is nice.
And the colour, it's not white,
isn't your face white, is it?
No.
Creamy.
It's a very solid piece,
but it's just 2.95,
so it'd have to be maybe a hundred quid
less than that, really, for us.
But that is, that is nice.
Solid, too.
I mean, look at the top.
Where else do you find a top like that?
Apart from all our other furniture that we own.
It's a bit of us, this is.
That is a bit of us.
I'm not a big fan of the cream, personally.
See, I don't mind it.
I would have gone for green or something.
I know, but we're doing a lot of green.
I feel like.
To be honest, I would have liked that,
just normal wood.
See, this was just the colour that I'd have
in my bedroom as a kid.
But what, in the kitchen, though,
where would you have it?
Where would you put it, in the kitchen?
Yeah, that'd be like a kitchen cupboard, wouldn't it?
Yeah, it'd be in your kitchen or in a dining room.
Mm.
Oh, this is nice, too.
Let's see that.
What's that, is that a wardrobe
or is that like a cupboard,
like a larder cupboard?
Wardrobe or painting.
Painting?
Oh, pantry cupboard.
Oh, definitely a wardrobe.
Although, you could put shelves in that.
Maybe that's what they're saying.
Pantry, poultry?
Pantry.
It's not my, it's not me, you can't read it,
it's just about it.
It's the handwriting.
Yeah, okay, okay.
Yeah, nice pieces in there.
Obviously, there's a nice sideboard over here, too.
Just a nice antique sideboard.
All right, Holly and Chris checking in.
I really enjoyed that.
I mean, I do come a lot.
Yeah.
Especially summertime.
I think it was a really good little market, to be honest.
I wasn't really, I had my expectations quite low,
so I thought it was really good.
We came home with three pieces,
which we'll show you when we get back,
but that was a good little market.
Yeah, it was good fun.
Everyone was really friendly, saw some people we know.
Yeah.
Went in a few antique shops, didn't we?
Yeah, yeah, there was a couple
that I didn't know were here,
and I've lived here my whole life,
so that's a bit embarrassing.
But, yeah, I mean, the last time I came here,
I mean, you're talking about in the summer,
there was a lot more clothing.
It was a lot more retro, vintage clothing,
and it's quite nice to see more.
Vintage clothing, yeah, it's quite an upcoming thing,
vintage clothing.
Yeah.
It's a big thing right now.
Also, in Bridgeport, I think that's quite a big,
a lot of people around here like that.
Yeah.
There's a lot more stuff,
like furniture and bits and pieces this time.
Yeah, we haven't come away with any furniture, unfortunately.
No.
But, you know, when we do things like Shepton
and stuff like that, we'll come away
with a van load of furniture.
But I must have spent, what's that, 20 meters?
Got out of the van, went about 20 meters that way,
bought something straight away.
Yeah, first thing.
First thing I saw.
That was good.
And we got here quite late.
We didn't get here, like, super early or anything.
No, it's just quite, like, a relaxed, casual market.
I like it.
It's right on our doorstep, so.
It's a nice bar.
They've got music playing,
so you might have heard that over the top of us talking.
But, yeah, happy.
Yeah, it was a nice day, that.
Nice little afternoon.
I'm currently on my way to the Antiques Bazaar,
and if you've been following the channel for a while,
you know that's where we were selling.
We're at a unit at the Antiques Bazaar shop in Krukern,
and we traded there for six months.
But the guy who owns the shop, Anthony, he's retiring,
and basically it's all just closing down,
which is quite sad,
and a lot of dealers are just closing down as well.
Whereas we ended up moving to the Antique Village,
which is great.
I'm going over there later as well.
Shouldn't really be there too long.
I'll give you, like, a final look of, like, the shop.
It looks so different.
Like, a lot of such, like, a lot of units are already empty.
And then later, when Holly gets back from work,
we're gonna go to the Antique Village,
and we're gonna load up all of our new stuff.
But yeah, let's go and have a look and see what's left.
So it is very empty in there now.
There's still customers going around.
And then our unit up here is pretty,
pretty empty as well now.
But our unit is just here on the left,
and there's, like, nothing left, which is good.
Sold the big pine bookcase that was in the corner.
But yeah, just a few smalls to pick up,
couple bookcases.
Got these few pieces, which I wanna get rid of as well.
And obviously, this glass display cabinet we're selling.
So yeah, hopefully it all goes.
Couple lamps, few little paperweights and bits and pieces.
I think a couple of these lamps will do good
in our new shop anyway.
So yeah, we'll take those to the new shop.
And then there's a few little smalls
and other bits down here,
which we'll probably go to the new shop as well.
So I've pretty much done it all now.
My hair's a mess.
Need a shave.
But there's, like, one more piece to take.
So yeah, that is the space.
And all I need to do is take that little box on the floor
and this painting, which has been here
for quite a while now.
And it's done, and that's over.
It is all gone.
So now we're going over to the antique village
to take all that furniture and stuff over.
But this stuff, I don't really know what to do with.
It's a lot of, like, the odds and sods
that I don't really wanna be selling anyway.
As you walk through, you can see that a lot of people
have already started clearing out.
A lot of people already have gone.
Like, this is where we used to be.
We used to be in this store.
Now it's pretty much gone.
So yeah, bit of an end of an era.
Quite sad, but bittersweet.
That's the word I was trying to think of earlier.
It's bittersweet.
Because we love our new pitch, which is great.
But just sad to see this one closing down.
So yeah, here's a proper look at what we had.
So we had that whole green space, basically,
all the way up to the edge of the carpet.
And yeah, emptied out now.
But goodbye, Antiques Bazaar.
Okay, so I didn't have time to shave,
but I've almost loaded up the van completely.
We just have a stone foal.
If you remember that one, to go here.
And then also that blue cabinet needs to go across the top.
It's not too heavy.
It's just a bit difficult to get to there.
So I'm just waiting for Holly.
But yeah, that's most of it in.
I've just got a few little boxes and stuff of smalls
to go in.
And then we're going over to the shop.
And then we've got to lug it down the stairs somehow,
which is going to be a bit difficult.
And then this is the blue cabinet that I was talking about.
I need that one to slide over the top of everything.
But yeah, nearly there.
Holly's going to be home in about 10 minutes, hopefully.
And then we're going to drive about an hour.
Hopefully get everything in by the end of lunchtime.
And that will hopefully set us up
for the next two weeks in the shop.
So that's what we're trying to do.
We're trying to go over every two weeks.
Gives us a chance to buy new stock.
Also, obviously, we work as well.
So we can't go over that much.
Yeah, excited to see how these pieces get on.
But so far, so good in the shop.
We've obviously been doing a lot of good sales.
It's obviously very nice weather out here.
I just need to shave.
But yeah, our first two weeks of being in the shop.
It's probably the best two weeks we've ever had.
And again, we sold out of furniture,
which is why I'm taking all of this over.
But yeah, that's good.
That's a good thing.
Buying is the fun part.
So it means we can go on more buying trips.
Anyway, we will see you at the shop.
Come over your way up there.
Yeah.
Is that about right?
Needs to get in a bit, doesn't it?
Yeah.
They did quite a good job of making it look all right.
This chair's coming home anyway.
I think I sold it.
Already?
Think so.
The furniture first?
Yeah, furniture first.
Yeah.
Rub's gone down.
All right, we managed to get in the big blue cupboard,
the larder cupboard so far,
but still got all this to go.
It's just awkward going downstairs.
We hope to move to the ground floor one day
so we don't have to do this.
But we got me, Holly, and Holly's mum, Lisa,
here helping us today.
But yeah, excited.
I saw some people looking around.
We sold something this morning.
We sold one of those lamps,
the Swan Neck lamp with the blue shade.
So that sold this morning, which is good.
And then hopefully this stuff does all right
throughout the week.
So we're moving more stuff into the antique village today.
We just got a few bits in
and we got this carpet down, didn't we?
Got the rug down, which looks good.
Yes.
Yeah, this has already made it feel more homely.
Yeah, but it's all big stuff in it, really.
Bit of a pain.
It's good though,
because it means big furniture has sold,
so it means that we're replacing with big furniture,
which is nice.
Yeah, definitely.
It's keeping it moving and interesting, isn't it?
Yeah, definitely.
And also, we just need to pull out stuff
and then basically pack it all back in again.
Yeah.
So we're just gonna get on with that for a minute.
I might try to time-lapse it,
but there's a lot to come down.
There is, yeah.
A lot of heavy stuff.
But we'll get there.
They did a good job of making it look semi-good
while waiting for us.
Yeah, it was pretty empty,
but they made it look really good,
so pleased with that.
Quick little breather,
but we just got a lot of this in now.
Blue one, pitch pine one.
Holly's moving some of those.
And the yellow one's in now, which looks good.
What, did you put this on top?
No, I didn't.
I put it here at the front.
Really?
I think the fender's gonna need to be on its own.
Okay, well, let's get it down
and then we'll work it out.
But yeah, maybe.
Just don't want it to fall off or anything,
because the yellow ones are a bit worn.
No, it wouldn't fall off that far.
Okay, but yeah.
Still got this pile here
and we've got to unpack some smalls
and put them back on.
But yeah, getting there.
Only two more big bits to go or something.
Got this big sideboard, which you saw.
We're gonna put it down there,
so that'd be cool.
Absolutely hard work out this.
Honestly.
So we basically moved everything out.
Still got the outer rail.
Still got this little tool chest.
Took out a couple drawers in this little box.
But man, that was hard work
trying to get that sideboard out and stuff.
Anyway, nearly there.
Holly's just doing some rearranging.
I'm gonna keep bringing some stuff in.
But it looks full already, so that's good.
You kind of saw it when we just put the carpet down.
When we put the rug down,
that was what was left, basically.
So not loads.
And yeah, starting to look good again, so that's good.
I'm hoping that they can move us up to the ground floor
because going up and down these stairs
with big furniture is getting hard.
So honestly, the bigger we get
and the better things that we start doing
and the more impressive pieces,
we're gonna have to move upstairs.
So I'm gonna ask about it in a minute.
But anyway, exciting.
Excited to get this stuff in the shop.
So this is what it looks like
with all the new furniture in, which is nice.
Holly's just sorting out some smalls
and then I'll put some stuff hanging from the ceiling
and put some stuff on the wall in a minute.
We just got that fender to come down as well,
which is gonna go right at the front,
in front of that blue cabinet, so that's cool.
But yeah, this is like the back bit of where we're going.
So we have to go up and down these stairs.
It's a nightmare, but it's okay, it's in now.
Hey, in that little box, there's like some grabbers,
what are they called?
Pliers, not pliers, you know, that sort of thing.
Yeah, yellow handle, yes please, thank you.
Great, thank you.
Just try and make sure that this doesn't come out.
I mean, it's only hanging a chandelier.
Let's get one up.
Thank you.
All right, I think that's quite good, hopefully.
Does that look good?
So yeah, there's one.
And I'll put the other one literally here.
Doing a lot of work.
Hopefully these steps are safe.
Is that here?
Oh, is this even if I do it here?
I don't know how far, about here?
Something like that.
Could you pass me the other chandelier, please?
Thank you very much.
Don't fall from here.
Clip that on there, make sure that's hanging.
And voila.
How's it look?
Good.
All right, we've done it.
We've moved everything in.
Hard work trying to get in this back door.
So trying to get our big bits down the stairs
and that's quite hard, isn't it?
So the only downside at the moment
is that we are selling a lot of big furniture,
which is fantastic, but the move is so hard
because we are downstairs.
Yeah, my back is-
I'm not gonna lie, I don't have the strength of a man.
It's okay, one day we'll be upstairs
and then, yeah, anyway, we'll give you a quick run through
of everything that we've put in there
and what it looks like now.
Okay, so we've just dropped off all our new bits
and it looks a lot different than it did
at the start of this video.
So quickly run you through a few new bits
and how we've done it.
So obviously this, put this right at the front.
Really like that, hopefully that goes.
But yeah, it works really well, it's like a club vendor.
Then we also had the new sideboard,
this antique pine sideboard with a reclaimed top.
Really like that and the green goes quite well
and it works well with this picture.
Then we've got a few other bits,
a few bits from the old shop that we've put on here.
Also the RAF plaque, put that there.
And then got this chair as well.
Struggled to fit this one in a bit, didn't we, Hal?
Struggled to fit a lot of this in, I'm not gonna lie.
But we're trying to make this last like a couple of weeks.
So, oh, we've put this up here.
So I've been hanging some stuff, which you saw.
So I've got a pair of chandeliers there.
They look quite good and obviously that's how
they would sort of go in someone's home, so that's nice.
Put the yellow chest of drawers here.
Just didn't want it to be too close to the cupboard
over there because that's yellow as well.
That pretty much is a few old bits of old new stock.
A couple candlesticks, lamps, ice bucket, a few other bits.
And then, ooh, 18th century little cupboard,
love that a lot.
Holly's magic cupboard there as well, that's gone.
New stool, the machinist stool down here.
And this stool as well, this like little rustic
three-legged like milking stool.
And then we put the Liberty-style mirror on this wall here
and moved the other one to just behind Hal on her left.
So we moved that one to there.
And then, yeah, I mean, the box, the fold,
the cupboard works quite well there.
Put that on the wall there.
And then this whole front section
has sort of changed as well,
and it's, we got the rhino.
And then round here, round here we put this
like Victorian tool chest there, spice tower,
and this men's shaving mirror.
So that's kind of it, yeah.
There's a few other new bits I'm sure that I'm missing.
But yeah, looking good.
So yeah, that's pretty much everything as you saw.
This whole front section, you know,
still got the apothecary things.
Got these really nice drawers from Brothers Antiques.
Got them in the shop now.
Didn't end up splitting them in the end,
but maybe one day.
I put them down as a pair though,
so somebody might want to split them.
I forgot that back here,
we've also got this Pitch Pine Chester drawers,
which looks quite good there.
It's a nice color.
It's quite rich, rich color.
So quite pleased with that.
The handles really look good.
But yeah, that is the shop, isn't it?
I mean, I'm sure there's a couple of things I'm missing,
but yeah, let us know what you think.
Hopefully this lasts us a couple of weeks now, but yeah.
But now we put this rug down as well.
And yeah, just really pleased.
I think it looks really good.
Looks smart, looks busy.
You can walk around, can't you?
So you sort of come in and then sort of go around.
And yeah, let us know what you think.
Obviously, hopefully we do more buying in this video,
but let's see how we get on with this stuff.
So the house looks a lot different
from when you saw it at the start of this video,
because all that furniture has now gone to the shop,
as you saw.
But I'm just gonna show you a couple of things
that we got from the Bridport market.
It was quite fun.
We enjoyed ourselves.
Didn't really expect anything,
but actually ended up with a few nice bits.
So first things first, pick up another West German vase.
I know we buy a lot of these,
but try to buy the unique, interesting ones
that you don't see all the time.
Nice pop of color.
And it's just a cool vase, isn't it, really?
What do you think, Har?
I think it's really pretty.
I like the fact that it's obviously got bright colors.
I like how it's broken out
with a bit of cream in the middle.
It's a nice size, it's quite tall.
And it's still got its Ceramic logo on,
for Shorrock Ceramic.
I can't say it very well, but yeah, nice vase.
Again, West German vases, they're cool,
but try to get the unique ones.
Obviously, I had to buy a lamp.
There was a few nice lamps,
but within about 20 meters of getting out of the van,
I saw this, and this is just like a workshop lamp,
and it works, which is nice.
I'm gonna have to pat test it.
It's got the really long cable,
because basically, how these would work is like,
you need to plug it in,
then you can put it, hang it in your workshop or whatever,
and then work underneath it.
It's just a cool little lamp, to be honest,
and it was cheap as anything.
It's got a little label here for Rain.
Now, I've got to admit, I don't know how much it's worth.
I don't know that company,
but it's a cool little industrial light and small,
and it will look cool hanging in the shop,
and yeah, just get a little hook, hook it on the wall.
It's actually really practical, if you think about it.
I quite like it.
I like how the light's coming through.
Yeah, because it's been so like,
because I think this is glass,
and it's had like a paint or whatever around the outside,
and the paint's sort of started to wear off,
so maybe you could, I mean, someone could buy it
and then completely strip it
and just have like a cool glass one,
but yeah, nice piece,
and like I said, it was extremely cheap, and it works,
so that's a bonus.
Don't have to rewire it.
You love a good rewiring.
I do, because it makes me feel manly,
and then probably my favorite piece are these weird things,
so these were probably my favorite piece of the day.
I didn't know what they were,
so I had to bring them home and do a little bit of research,
but they're basically just like these French folk art bears,
and they sort of did like a series of these,
like one would have a football.
These ones have shopping bags with a little hole in.
They're really run down.
They've got a little bit of age to them.
I just thought they were quite sweet, to be honest,
and I don't know, you could sell them separately,
or sell them as a pair.
This one's obviously got a bit more color than this one,
but a bit of wax might sort it out, make it look quite nice,
but personally, I quite like them like that,
so yeah, that was the three pieces,
well, technically four pieces
that we got from Redport Market.
Had a look for furniture in that,
but they didn't really have too much furniture, did they?
No, I mean, when you went inside the vintage shops
that are there all the time, had more the furniture.
This market was more little bits and pieces, clothing.
Yeah, exactly.
I feel like we kind of got enough furniture for a minute,
and everyone says we need smalls, and we do need smalls,
so I picked up these few,
and I just, these are just sweet little bears,
aren't they, really?
Just folk arty on little bases.
So yeah, that's it from Redport Market.
I am on my way to Tiverton today.
There is a salvage fair going on.
So it's called Tiverton Salvage Fair at the Pannier Market.
I don't really know what to expect.
I haven't got anything in my mind
that I'm like, oh, I hope I can get this,
or I'm after this type of thing.
I'm really actually just going to have a look,
and just seeing what's there,
and seeing what takes my fancy.
I think it might be similar
to that South Malton Antiques Fair that I went to
a few videos ago.
Now, we came home away from there
with a few small pieces and stuff, which was great.
I've got a little bit of cash on me today,
not loads of it, so I'm saving a lot of it
for Shepton and maybe Malvern next weekend.
But anyway, yeah, just gonna go there.
I'll show you guys around, see what we buy,
and then I'll show you guys everything I get when I'm home.
I'm hoping there's gonna be
some actual salvage sort of items,
maybe some architectural pieces, things like that,
rather than just another antiques fair,
vintage fair sort of thing.
Okay, so I'm here.
This is the salvage fair.
It's at this Pannier Market in Tiviton.
Anyway, people are still unloading right now,
but I'm just gonna have a quick look around,
see if I can get some early buys quickly.
Hopefully, there's some interesting pieces there.
So this is how it is.
It's sort of down this run of little shops and stuff,
and then some people sell in the Pannier Market there.
I bought one piece already, and it's been about five minutes,
but yeah, I'm gonna keep looking around.
People are still setting up right now,
so I need to keep going around in circles
until everyone's done.
Okay, so I'm trying to do this quick,
but there is basically this strip which has shops,
like little units on both sides,
but I'm just letting people unpack.
I bought a couple pieces,
but I'm just gonna keep letting people unpack for a minute.
Did want some new industrial hanging lights,
but don't know how much these are.
There's not too many people here today,
not too many stalls,
but managed to get a couple little bits so far.
Just gonna keep having a look around.
I keep doing loops because by the time I've gone around,
they've unpacked a bit more and a bit more,
so I have to keep doing a loop.
It's quite quiet too,
but I doubt the public will really come down here
until about 10 or something.
I'm trying to show you inside as well,
but there's not really loads in there,
just maybe a handful of stalls in here.
Anyway, I don't think I'm going home
with too many pieces this morning,
but I'll quickly show you around,
show you a few stalls, show you what they got.
Sorry that was such a short look around.
There wasn't really too many stalls there,
and I only managed to buy a couple little bits,
but that's okay.
It's always worth having a look.
At least I got a couple things
so it wasn't a completely wasted journey.
Also, I just felt like I had to leave.
People were getting annoyed at me.
Three people made a right hoo-ha about me
trying to video and show you guys the things around.
It was a bit of a weird one.
I never really, as you guys know,
I never really film people
without their permission or anything.
I just sort of trying to show you guys
what they're selling and what's around,
and three people made a right hoo-ha about it
and got quite annoyed at me
and shouted across that courtyard,
telling me to stop, basically,
and saying, oh, you're supposed to ask permission,
and I just didn't want to get into anything.
The two people I bought stuff from were really friendly,
so that was nice.
It was nice to speak to them.
So obviously you saw the Tiverton market,
and again, it wasn't the best one for us, personally.
And again, those people got annoyed
about the filming and stuff,
and there wasn't too many stalls.
There wasn't much furniture, and yeah.
But anyway, I don't want to talk too badly of it
because I did come away with a couple pieces,
and it turns out I did a bit better than I thought.
So I actually bought this ball,
and if you remember, I went to a similar fair,
not long ago, and bought a ball,
and it sold really well in the shop.
And I just thought, ah, let's just grab this one.
Anyway, turns out this one is by Paula Humphreys
for Polpero Pottery, which actually means it's quite good.
It's got a nice color, and that's sort of what attracted me.
It's just a nice colored ball.
But yeah, it's from Paula Humphreys for Polpero Pottery,
and it's worth about 100 pound, which is great.
And it's all stamped on the bottom, so that's all cool.
And then this is the other bit I bought,
which seems really random now when I think about it,
but it's just this really beaten up, painted,
had layers and layers of paint on it.
Basically, what this was, it's got like six legs.
It looks like a bit of a spider.
It's not that exciting, if I'm honest.
So basically, you'd have these,
and then you'd have a pole coming up through the middle,
and then you'd have string, or bobbin,
or whatever it's called.
I don't know what it is exactly.
And it'd basically be the base of a twisting thing,
for like, I don't know.
I don't know exactly, but you know what I mean?
Anyway, it just works really well
as a little stool now, or a plant stand or something.
I imagine someone would buy it
to put a pot on in the house,
because it has got a nice color and stuff.
It's been painted green, it's been painted red,
it's been painted gray, and I just disliked it.
Again, it wasn't loads of money, so yeah.
So I did come back with a couple pieces.
I'm not gonna make much money on this one,
but the ball, 100 quid, that's pretty good.
Okay, so we are back from the antique village,
and let us know how you think.
We were quite pleased with it, weren't we, Har?
Very.
There's a lot in there now, but it looks a lot better.
It looks good with the rug, two chandeliers,
and whatever else, and some cool pieces.
But obviously I did clear out the other shop today,
so I thought it might just be kind of funny
to run you through it.
Also, I'm bringing this mouseman board home,
because we sold this one on Instagram to someone.
So we're gonna get that all sorted,
and get that shipped out, so that's exciting.
Nice little piece, good little find I had there.
But yeah, just here, there's like,
I don't know what to do with a lot of this stuff,
because a lot of it is not really the kind of thing we sell,
but we'll obviously probably sell it.
Got another angle point here, got another painting.
This is my mum's mirror that she wanted me to sell.
It's never sold.
And some gin traps, and other bits and pieces.
Like, it's just stuff that, it's always,
it's either like extras,
or stuff that's just not that exciting.
Obviously I do like this, I'd like this to go.
And then behind Holly, oh actually, come this way.
So as you saw in the old shop, this is all that was left.
So we had a couple bookcases, we have this white one,
which we just literally used, didn't we?
Yeah, it was just for showcasing.
It was just for like showcasing things,
and we also have this other bookcase.
Again, probably just gonna sell these two
on like Facebook Marketplace.
And then there's like here, there's our cabinet.
But we're probably gonna get rid of this cabinet,
because we wanna have a nice one.
And we haven't really got many smalls
that would go in it, do we?
But I think we'll try to get like a nice
Victorian ebonized cabinet, something like that.
Something that will fit in with our thing.
I don't think we've bought smalls because,
well smalls that should go in a cabinet,
because we haven't, we knew that the new place,
this sort of cabinet, we didn't want in there.
So I think we've just not done it, haven't we?
I think once we do, we will do it.
Yeah, of course we will.
That we wanna do.
Yeah.
Yeah, I've got that.
Another lamp, which will actually go
in the new shop at some point.
But we put a few in there today,
because we sold a bunch lately.
So that's good.
And then obviously back here,
you've seen some of this stuff.
This is our next like DIY project, as it were.
Need to get some paint stripper and just lay this on.
I actually think this would be nice as wood.
Just like a wood color, maybe.
And then over here is a few other small bits
that I brought out of the shop.
And again, I don't think it's anything exciting.
There's just a few odds and sods in here.
A little mapping and web,
like a little champagne flute, a couple of lamps,
a few little silver plated pieces, doorstops, clocks.
I don't even know what's wrapped up in this.
I'm gonna be honest.
Just probably random bits of China
and little bits of glass wearing things.
So yeah, that's pretty much it.
That's the house.
Gonna have a bit of a tidy up this afternoon.
So it's not always gonna look like this.
We don't always live in squalor, but yeah.
So I thought it just might be funny to show you guys
what our house looks like right now,
having cleared out a shop and,
well, cleared out the other bits out of our house
to take to the new shop.
I did give him the spare room.
That was when we bought the house.
I gave him one room out of the three we have.
I thought that was extremely fair
and it seems to have creeped its way
throughout the whole house.
Right, guys, hear me out, right?
You see our front door?
If our spare room is like the other side of the house,
so if you have a big bit of furniture,
it's just easier to bring it in here
and leave it there against the space
that we don't have anything.
So you're saying you're lazy
because you don't want to carry it through?
No, it's awkward.
You've got to turn that corner,
turn another corner, through a door.
He's being extremely dramatic.
I'm not being dramatic.
It just makes more sense.
And if it gets, it's almost like forgotten
if it goes out there.
That's like probably like forgotten antiques
and stuff out in that room,
which we need to sort out.
That's absolutely fine.
Happy to take that room back.
Anyway, even like here,
I haven't even showed you these things, guys.
We got like a few rings and stuff,
some nice champagne taps.
Yeah, I got these like nice champagne taps
from Holly's step-granddad
that he wanted to sell in the shop.
So we had these in our cabinet,
but again, we don't have a cabinet in the new shop,
but these are just quite interesting.
This is obviously a nice one.
Nice little champagne tap.
Yeah, so we've got these as well.
We don't know what to do with those.
We'll probably end up giving them back to him, won't we?
Yeah, a couple of rings.
Hope you guys have enjoyed the video.
I'm sure we'll do something with all this stuff
at some point, but right now I just need to tidy it up.
Yeah, definitely time to tidy up now.
Yeah.
Anyway, my back really hurts,
so I'm gonna sit down for a minute for us.
