Possibly your best suggestion was to use one's collectible. That is what they were made for. Regular use and gentle cleaning will help keep them looking good for another fifty or a hundred years.
Before I learned the care of old dishes and figurines, Many a relic perished. Poor cold painted collie lost its coat in the suds. 😁 P.S Great idea using paper plates as buffers! ❤️🐩
Loving your channel! Great cleaning tips 👌 I like how you are switching things up..giving great information on everything involved with collecting. I can see Christmas shortbread on the dainty silver dish. 🌺
Thanks, Jeffrey, for another wonderful and informative video. So many beautiful vintage items. I just wanted to say I have found a Rubbermaid sink liner is a life saver when washing vintage breakables in the sink. Please keep these vids coming! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!!! 😃 yes care is so important for our beautiful things. Hope to be having a live sale soon! Stay tuned!!! 🥰 thanks for watching!!!!
Jeffrey thanks for sharing your cleaning ideas. I love that yellow bowl with the green decoration that you used hydrogen peroxide to take the stains out. Glad to hear you use your collected dishes; I do too with company & just for my own enjoyment!!
Hi, Thank you for this informative video. The use of a soft towel at the bottom of the sink is helpful. I never thought about that. I have a question for you, is everyday household bleach an option at taking out staining in crazed dishes and ironstone? I too am drawn to silver and pewter, I use Wright's silver cleaner on darkened (black) silver items. Works great, then a lot of elbow grease I like old postcards and seasonal cards, they bring back memories. Take care and looking forward to your next video. Bye. Jersey Ann from NJ thumbs👍
Thanks for watching! I would not use bleach as I think that’s a little bit too harsh. It would be equivalent to putting it in a dishwasher because the dishwasher uses chemicals like bleach so I would avoid that. I would try the hydrogen peroxide that’s the best and safest method I have found. Especially for really old antiques,
Wonderful video Jeffery very informative. 🎉I also use my vintage on a daily basis. I microwave my Pyrex. I only shop thrift stores. If I had rare Pyrex that I didn’t get cheaply I would probably only display it.I have a hall refrigerator casserole dish that is oven proof that I bake casserole’s in. I still haven’t got up courage to eat off my vintage dishes. Was worried I might be serving my husband lead on a platter.😜( I know Scott and other experts say it’s safe .) I don’t have a dishwasher so can only hand wash😊🧼🧽Looking forward to more videos from you. Happy thrifting 💙
@@OldeHadleyVintage thank you for reassuring me it’s OK to use my old dinnerware. I picked up some Taylor Smith Taylor ever yours pattern at the Salvation Army for half off of six dollars so I’m excited to use it now. Thank you again for starting a channel because I think you’re going to do excellent.
Thank you Jeffrey for the info! One heads-up; Oxyclean can be harsh to those with sensitive skin and the use of rubber gloves to wash items may be advisable. ☺
Thanks for the tips Jeffrey, now I have one for you. I have one for removing tarnish on silver brass or copper ( esp. copper) I buy Ketchup in large bottles when on sale as this cleans metals beautifully without any damage to your skin(I’m not one to use rubber gloves as I don’t like the feeling on my hands). Even gets into grooves of elaborately detailed metal by using soft bristle brush ( not intimating what it does to one’s stomach, as I never use this as a condiment)!
Great tip! Thanks so much!! I definitely have to try that on my copper cookie cutters cause I always have trouble getting into the groove of some of those… I usually use lemon with kosher salt and I usually scrub them with that and that usually gets them nice and clean as well, but I’m gonna try the ketchup! Thank you for the tip. I appreciate that and thank you so much for watching!! 🥰
Lovely items, Jeffrey. I never knew you could use peroxide to clean dishes. Thanks for all of the tips. The silver items are BEAUTIFUL!! I'm enjoying your channel.
Thanks for the oxy clean tip! Inherited some incredible table linens all are white, but are yellow with minus stains. going to try cleaning them this weekend😊
Sounds great!👍🏼 it’s amazing what OxiClean can do when you fill up your washtub if your washing machine let them soak or if you don’t have that ability and you have a front loader, then just let them soak in a basin with hot water and OxiClean slush it around really well and let them soak overnight and then wash them like you normally would but add OxiClean to the wash as well with your detergent. My advice for antique table linens if they are very old, let them air dry and then press them. If you put them in the dryer, they tend to shrink and then they don’t press properly and they kind of look all catty Wompus. Thank you for watching and good luck. ☺️☺️
I like the oxyclean idea. Also when I buy vintage coffee pots I put a dishwasher tab in the basket and brew it like coffee. Keeps my sunbeam silver pot and my corningware pot sparkling.
I use Oxi too, Jeffrey. I use it on antique linens. And years ago I poured my dish soap into a decorative bottle. I got away from it but after watching your video, this girl is going back to that old Martha Stewart trick. Thanks!!
You’re so welcome and thank you for watching! I will be showing some more how to segments in the future if folks seem to like these! They were fun to do and incorporating a small thrift haul in them was fun to do too!
Thanks for the advice! Have you ever tried cleaning silver with boiling water, baking soda and tinfoil? I’ve read about it but haven’t tried it yet. Apparently you line a plastic tub with foil, (shiny side up )and mix 2tbsp of baking soda with a litre of boiling water and pour it over the items sitting on the foil. The tarnish drops off and transfers to the foil! 🤞🏼
Yes I have… I have had decent results getting off a good amount of the tarnish and you use the salt and baking soda and yes, it does transfer to the aluminum foil or you can put it into a aluminum pan that you purchase at the grocery store those disposable type and it actually does work for the most part but I did notice that I had to take them out rinse them and dry them and then do a little bit more hand polishing to finish them off but it does a fairly good job also you can use salt and a lemon and the lemon and salt also help to break down the tarnish. There’s lots of different things and it’s fun to experiment… Thank you for watching.❤️
Haviland is one of the major china manufacturers in Limoges, maybe even the most important one. Their products sell for a fortune. I haven't checked lately, but if memory serves one dinner plate can go for $100 easily.
What I do for the blackish gray cutlery marks is to use some barkeepers friend and with my fingers I gently massage the marks out with a little water make a paste and works like a charm! Thanks for watching!!!
I enjoyed this video. I love crazing, too but didn't know what to do about the staining. Now I do. Thank you!!! Does the peroxide become inactive after a few days or can it be used more than once?
It does tend to lose its potency, so I generally toss it and you’ll see that it will be discolored after the dishes. Sit in there for a few days as it starts to pull out those stains so after those several days of soaking, I toss the solution. It’s kind of like reusing dishwater in a sink.. gets kinda yucky… thanks for watching! 🥰
OK, this is proof Google listens to your thoughts. Just logged on while taking a break from deep cleaning my living room and every 'treasure' and bit of furniture, and this is recommended. Huh?
Full strength! Just immerse the items in a plastic storage tote or dish pan and let it set and turn the item over and around every day… be sure to use rubber gloves or tongs to protect your skin!
Kathleen I have to work out a schedule with my full time job I need to be able to pick a day that is consistent every week… work in progress! Will be soon! And building up a good supply of goodies to sell as well! 🥰 thanks for watching!!

We have found coffe and other dark stains respond well to salt and lemons. Just pot the salt in the item and scrub with half a lemon.
Great to know!!! I’ll try that thank you for sharing and for watching!! ❤️
Great video! I really appreciated the peroxide in a plastic tote tip! You have some beautiful items. TFS 💙🌸

I use a thick slotted rubber mat on the bottom of my porcelain sink. Yeah… just to have something on the bottom of the sink, is key.
Yes! A rubber mat works great too! 👍🏼

❤❤❤
What the ratio of 12% peroxide to water you use to soak for crazing?
Full strength! Just immerse the items in a plastic storage tote or dish pan and let it set and turn the item over and around every day… be sure to use rubber gloves or tongs to protect your skin!
Great tips Jeffrey
