Don’t underestimate the value of vintage fabrics, yarns and ephemera - some of us are desperate for this stuff! It does have value. The dusty old lockers are by FAR the most interesting to me 🫶🏻 Excited for this series 🤞🏼

@maureenmcgrath8169 Месяц назад

At 72, this locker has made me feel warm and fuzzy.

@WNCBlueRidgeBlondie1 Месяц назад

Me too. I recognize a lot of that fabric.

@teta3577 Месяц назад

Please understand that all of the yarn and the magazines and all of the fabric/quilt stuff is precious to those of us who craft. That can all go in the auction in lots. Or at the yard sales.

@dawndixon402 Месяц назад

😁👋👍👍👏👏💕🙏🏻

@geedog444 Месяц назад

I know sewing, crocheting and crafts are not your thing but, it is to some of us. My mom has been gone since 1984. This reminded me of her so much that I cried as you threw boxes in your van. I’m pushing 60 and have told my relatives that I don’t want my stuff to ever be put in storage. I get rid of stuff often. The more I watch these, the more I refuse to let some stranger go through my stuff. Love your videos but, I just don’t want someone else going through my things!!!

@margaretdillinger5090 Месяц назад

I do yell at him often because as a crafter, I see the want or need that could useful. Or for senior centers etc. I hate the thought of clothes and a lots of things he trashes. No money for him I know but as a Christian something’s should be considered. Love ya Jack.

@pamthompson1162 Месяц назад

I agree please don't put in landfill I'm a crafter and stuff is expensive give to a school or seniors home

@kaceyharms3135 Месяц назад

My gf’s mom was has hoarder. She had a seacan full of fabric, wool, yarn, catalogs etc. one summer my gf sold $10,000 worth of stuff. She still has at least that much left to sell.

@juliannking7495 Месяц назад

This video reminds me that I have told my son if I ever find out that he gave all my quilting, sewing stuff, and yarns to a thrift store, I'd haunt him his whole life. Those items do have buyers. I know it isn't your "thing", but all you have to do is advertise that you have a yarn, thread, fabric lot, you would draw the right buyers who will buy that kind of thing. Those vintage handmade blankets do have a market with vintage buyers.

@vivienanderson603 Месяц назад

Loved watching this locker. Makes a change from football memorabilia and trains 😄

@dawnyoung4635 16 дней назад

I have a lot of the same stuff that I want to sell. You interested?

@OneKite40 Месяц назад

Could you include some of those sewing patterns in your auction please?

@LockerNuts Месяц назад

Yes, I'll have one big lot of them on Monday's auction.

@BernieKomondor Месяц назад

Quilting and Sewing is a billion dollar industry. Many love vintage books. Quilters love buying fabric and sewing notions. People who knit and crochet love to buy yarn cheap. I would advertise sewing notions , fabric, yarn at quilting and sewing shows. I see a lot of value.... lol

@katherinedraus9211 Месяц назад

Wow, that 1st locker was for me!!!! Crochet books, yarn, thread!!!!!

@sugaraunt Месяц назад

Same! Especially all that crochet thread. It's expensive these days.

@zeegervanroemburg9146 Месяц назад

For me too! Loved it! ❤

@bethcorey6022 Месяц назад

Fabric and feather weight here❤❤❤

@janvargas8962 Месяц назад

That locker was fabulous. As a crafter and a sewer I loved just about everything in it!!!

@loribradley8234 Месяц назад

You could bundle the sewing stuff and do a whatnot show in the craft/sewing category if there is one. All of that has value.

@LockerNuts Месяц назад

Monday we'll be selling all of the stuff in lots, except for what we sold at the flea market already.

@adventurebythemile Месяц назад

Everything is vintage in that whole locker! I love it!!!

@deidrepyatte4805 Месяц назад

You hit the Jackpot with all the crochet work! IT is the latest "THING"!

@angelagraham9378 Месяц назад

I would have loved looking through this locker. Some of the old crochet, knitting and sewing patterns may be worth something. She looked like a clever and creative lady.

@trishmooneyham2782 Месяц назад

I CAN’T BREATHE !!!

@OriginalNethead Месяц назад

I think Jack is now in the Fabric business. Sewing ladies will be all over it. (Wear an N95 filter mask in the other two, Jack. ! )

@sarastaggs8153 Месяц назад

My husband found a unit FULL of yarn. It was box after box after box of yarn. I was SO irritated! Turns out people really love yarn. He sold a ton on EBay And then the rest at the flea market. Safe to say he made a thousand or more on the $10 yarn unit, haha.

@jeno264 Месяц назад

That is awesome! 💖

@marysue6951 Месяц назад

Old fabric is valuable. Especially jersey knit and cotton.

@letitiagordon7638 Месяц назад

That money was food stamps from years ago. Been a long time since I’ve seen them. That was a blast from the past. Thanks 😊

@EF-he8ul Месяц назад

And the paper food stamps can still be used by those on food stamps

@loislynncameron9608 Месяц назад

I was thinking that might be what they were.

@Bee_Charming Месяц назад

That food stamp coupon was what was used prior to the EBT card came into play.

@gloriafullbright8801 Месяц назад

Jack those older sewing basket booklets should bring some money to you. They are collectible.

@franceshorn4530 Месяц назад

Jack We the people who love crafting love vintage fabric and tools.

@kathrynfrasure3640 Месяц назад

That featherweight sewing machine is a favorite with quilters. Depending on age and condition they can easily be sold for $450+

@carlataliaferro7179 Месяц назад

When I first started watching, you always had a paint brush to brush away the dirt and dust😮

@lorichambo7256 Месяц назад

hey jack, Lori from Seal Beach here. I googled that agriculture cert....one of 'em uncirculated going for 15 dollars online! You never know. Love this kind of locker. Regular stuff, old stuff, from regular people... cool!

@karenharding3842 Месяц назад

In the sixties and seventies and before it was cheaper to make your own clothes and your families clothes than to buy them. I remember my mum constantly knitting or sewing to clothe us three kids and to make dresses for special occasions. What a fascinating locker. Thanks for showing us.

@lindak361 Месяц назад

30:48 Do a Google Lens on that vintage towel you were using as a rag. 😮😂

@leighagrant7861 Месяц назад

Do a sewing auction I love old textiles

@pattilemonhouse7911 Месяц назад

Indeed! Though I think he over valued the sewing machine.

@LockerNuts Месяц назад

Monday night on Whatnot. We'll see how it goes!

@markkelley4762 Месяц назад

See you there!!!

@Swifty-Rose Месяц назад

Yarn for knitting could go between 5.00 to 30.00 each bundle. Might be time for a knitting lot for your show.

@sidneyvandykeii3169 Месяц назад

That was a food stamp you found. I haven't held one of those in my hands since the late 1970s. Those were a life saver for several years after my dad had back surgery.

@plynn136 Месяц назад

Jack keeping it rusty, dusty and crusty. What fun!

@tammystark6364 Месяц назад

Jack the one box you opened and said "fabric" it is old tableclothes and some of them are quite collectible.

@skullystarfashionsskullygi2378 Месяц назад

It was a pleasure meeting you , wishing you continued success and positive progress with your health keep up the great video so much knowledge we all appreciate 😊

@cherylsouza4926 Месяц назад

I have that exact Singer travel sewing machine. My mother bought it in the 1940s. I have used it myself for over 50 yrs, including making clothes for my 1970s boutique. I have it set up and use it now for all my sewing projects. It's perfect! I wish I was close by to buy it from you to have an extra one.

@maureenmcgrath8169 Месяц назад

One of the boxes of fabric looked to have cotton tablecloths. Please put those in your auction!

@lindabruesewitz4699 Месяц назад

Those work basket books are very collectible.

@sandras55 Месяц назад

The dust is making me cough just watching 😂

@WyckedSells Месяц назад

I'm sneezing and coughing just watching all of the dust!

@maddog6191 Месяц назад

The pitching machine is worth what you paid for the unit Jack Maybe even more That was a very smart buy

@LockerNuts Месяц назад

I sure hope so! That would be great.

@lorriepierson8203 Месяц назад

Some of the finished crochet pieces can be vintage and collectible.

@karenfinnegan6550 Месяц назад

Crochet patterns and thread &yarn.

@patticoltman2441 Месяц назад

The second Singer machine I believe was a 99k. You can get more than $50 for that. Depending on condition closer to $150 to s200. Take some time to clean the dust off with sewing machine oil and never water. The gold decals will fade to silver. Also consider talking to someone who knows the difference between crochet yarn and knitting yarn. Hopefully someone can help you sort through the sewing tools so when it is time they will be correctly lotted up.

@lindak361 Месяц назад

8:08 Vintage costume jewelry is getting popular, too.

@dianet1994 Месяц назад

Very cool vintage sewing / craft books!

Hello from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia! This locker was interesting but really very dusty! And apparently the next two will also bring their share of dust! For some videos we can call you "Dusty Jack"!

@israelhernandez-sg8mt Месяц назад

Yea🤗😄Yea👍

@roxannaliston9978 Месяц назад

Oh my gosh, talk about stepping back in time!

@lindamorrison9755 Месяц назад

Those little doilies are crochet work that can be used as coasters or to set trinkets on some Sometimes you make a lot of them and put them together to make tablecloths for the dining room or even bedspreads have also seen them to make bed canopies or bed skirts. Very tedious working with the cotton thread. I know I used to make them. Now that I had my cataracts removed and can see again I might make more Christmas snowflakes or some dream catchers. I'm 75 and still have some of this old books even some from the 40's I got at a yard sale

@janethartmannjones4781 Месяц назад

Green box contains a button hole attachment, all the parts are required

@marilynhemingway5219 Месяц назад

Jack you found enough dust to start a beach. I had food stamps many years ago like that. Absolute a blast from the past.

@marianneplumridge9768 Месяц назад

Those vintage crochet blankets in the last box could be worth a bit to help recover costs. The buying interest in vintage fine crafts like lacemaking, crochet, embroidery and fine cross stitch has grown over the years since retail places are asking the earth for machine manufactured cr*p from overseas.

@LockerNuts Месяц назад

I hope so! We'll be offering those up on our Whatnot auction on Monday night.

@vigerminaberrios4116 Месяц назад

I’m thinking that’s the way she supported herself doing the sewing and crocheting. I myself would Love to have a quilt or something crochet that old. And those books Love it. There’s a lot of people out here that love those kind of things definitely.

@paulinedawson5890 Месяц назад

Love those sewing boxes! Fun unit

@stephanielooper77 Месяц назад

Hi great video, just an idea I saw another storage buyer use a blower to knock the dust off .amazing the job the blower did, he would take items from the locker and blow the dust off before looking in the boxes. Did a great job.

@annieo9755 Месяц назад

Jack, would you put patterns and old sewing and crochet booklets on whatnot. I'll pray I'm watching so I can bid on them. Love watching you go through boxes. Always fun to see what you find. Thanks, Jack, love your channel.😊

@LockerNuts Месяц назад

Yes, Monday night we'll have them in big lots.

@marggyreppeto-pi6re Месяц назад

I'm surprised you weren't sneezing, I would of been. I liked the doll, she's pretty. Interesting stuff Jack ❤️

@patriciahusk3428 Месяц назад

The green box is a buttonholer and the oblong cams make different sized buttonholes.

@jeno264 Месяц назад

Ohh, goody; sewing things!! Im in! 💖

@zamis21 Месяц назад

Sewing and craft haul!!! MY kinda storage!! I have a Feather Weight that my best friend gave me and its Awesome!! I love it! That was Food stamps before EBT cards. If you put together boxes of fabric and boxes of sewing notions, put one price on the box. It will sell at your Flea Markets. I know I feel like I hit the jackpot with a locker like this.

@honyemiller2906 Месяц назад

The old crochet and sewing books and magazines are really interesting and people do buy them.

@LockerNuts Месяц назад

We'll be auctioning them on Monday night on Whatnot, so we'll see how it goes.

@sherrypeck4062 Месяц назад

Vintage linens with embroidery and vintage sewing items actually sell very good in my antique shop!

@maddog6191 Месяц назад

I like old sewing units because there's a chance of jewelry And Sterling silver thimbles

@adventurebythemile Месяц назад

That sewing box is fabulous

@bellacharlie806 Месяц назад

Vintage sewing patterns can be expensive ,from the 1920s-1950s specially by Vogue

@shellyherren4080 Месяц назад

Sewing thread is $3 a spool at Walmart not to mention yarn isn't any cheaper so why not do some lots & see how it goes !

@letiseag.trevino1749 Месяц назад

Forgot, look through the sewing box for thimbles, some can be silver or gold. 😁

@margiestevens2384 Месяц назад

I have a missionary that does crafts with dozens of groups of children in a section of the country that sufferers from poverty. We supply the crafting supplies so if you sell the yarn in kits, I will be interested 😊. Also the embroidery hoops are great for crafts😊

@user-zi5ul3xi9x Месяц назад

Jack we had an auction after my mother passed and all her old patterns went for over a hundred. They are very collectible.

@Inanna1477 Месяц назад

As a weaver and quilter, my word those were some pretty awesome items there... may they find a great home.

@sharespotsy Месяц назад

The old craft magazines remind me of my grandmother. She always had something in her hands knitting or crocheting.

@kathleenheston5295 Месяц назад

Jack, you have gold in that storage unit. We woman that sew and crochet would pay good money for the majority of items. The crochet magazines sell very well especially Work Basket!

@ppurgett Месяц назад

with the rising costs of yarn and fabric, you may be surprised how fast it will go, flashback time, the heart shaped wicker with paper and the blue satin box with jewelry I recognized as things in my life, definitely a 70's 80's storage unit, my mom had quite the collection of Workbasket magazines, it was a staple in a housewives home back then

@amandaambrose4251 Месяц назад

Literally “give me all the units with loads of dust”, wow Jack I’m sneezing for you. Enjoy the dig, can’t wait to see what you find 😊

@stephaniewerckman2302 Месяц назад

Loved the tablecloths!

@user-dw9pm7wt3q Месяц назад

I enjoyed this old locker and it s contents .Brought memories of my grandma back to me .Thanks

@loislynncameron9608 Месяц назад

Those old crochet and other sewing/craft books are sellable! Old patterns too. I saw a couple of those iron on packets for embroidery. Lord knows I don't have room for any more, but it was fun looking!

@toddmagnusson4880 Месяц назад

@jeno264 Месяц назад

@jeno264 Месяц назад

Omgoodness I actually see a few books I have in my stash! 😃😃

@debbyburns1718 Месяц назад

I think you found my locker from a former lifetime! LOL Those magazines are definitely worth it to crafters. I know of RU-vid channels that are dedicated to working with vintage crafting patterns and materials.

@cathycavalcante4732 Месяц назад

Wow, Jack!! There's so much dust in that locker, that I started coughing here in NJ!! 😂🤣 But yeah, you made back your money in that antique sax alone! Nice!

@angelacrane5229 Месяц назад

Wow the dust! Bring a leaf blower to clear off that dust easier!

@carolynb9324 Месяц назад

Should bring a shop Vac and generator with you!

@dawnkurtz9541 6 дней назад

That Feather Weight sewing machine is a real treasure. I never should have sold mine! It sewed everything, including Naugahyde boat covers. My Sears barely sews denim. Found the Feather weight being sold here in Ohio for $800.

@ImallamaToo Месяц назад

I knew immediately that was an alto saxophone. I played sax in middle school 100 years ago. 😂 They're actually worth some money, but that one looks like it needs replating. Doesn't affect the sound though. Some crafters would LOVE all those old crochet magazines!

WHOA! That’s some dust buildup!

@llb380 Месяц назад

I love your unwavering dedication and your kindness to all. Please forgive me if I give advise, but the nurse (and mom) in me begs you to be extra cautious with lockers that have an extraordinary dust content like this one. Wearing an appropriate filter mask is so important after your major surgery. We want you around to bring joy to your family, friends, and all of us who have grown to care about you!

@2manydogsrescue913 Месяц назад

@suzannagibson911 Месяц назад

The crocheting, pattern,magazine and such would make a cool whatnot lot.. The younger / mid20’s are gettin into making blankets and cloths

@letitiagordon7638 Месяц назад

People like to buy stuff to decorate their homes from back in the 50s and 60s and 70s so that blender and mixers can opener and stuff like that you use sale online after advertising it. I love this video and seeing all this stuff from my childhood memories. Awesome 🤩

@brendamaun5455 Месяц назад

And oh my gosh... I learned to play the saxophone in the 60s on my uncle's silver model. Very similar to the one you just found. Great memories for me in this locker!!

@keyrone77 Месяц назад

Felt like I was getting dust on me just watching this one

@caseyhambelton6235 Месяц назад

Definitely bring a leaf blower and a shop vac!!!

@spongebobsqueeze Месяц назад

If you separate the sewing stuff from all of that yarn you can make a decent profit off of both. The fabric looks good for quilting and that is good money as well. It is heavier to ship but people will pay the shipping. Any finished blankets or afghan’s will sell well. I think you will make more money then you expect on this locker.

@marlenejanzen1736 Месяц назад

There are crocheters who collect vintage crochet patterns and vintage yarn. It could make a lovely packaged sale.

@brendamaun5455 Месяц назад

I subscribed to Workbasket magazine back in the late '70s early '80s. Lots of vintage patterns will pop up in those old issues. Great find! And I learned to sew on my mom's black Singer machine just like that. It was stored in a similar case.
