1 DAY, 4 GOODWILLS = HUGE VINTAGE HAUL TO RESELL! Is Goodwill better than garage sales?

1 DAY, 4 GOODWILLS = HUGE VINTAGE HAUL TO RESELL! Is Goodwill better than garage sales?
Today I'm sharing what I paid at Goodwill and the two other thrift stores I stopped in and how much I can expect to make on the featured vintage items I picked. Some are bread and butter and some are BIG money. As a vintage reseller I hit up yard & garage sales, thrift stores, flea markets and yes, even antique malls. You never know where you're going to find a vintage decor item at a great price.

We are pretty lucky here for some reason! I never take it for granted.

[@deboramccallum3987]

Love that religious shadow box very precious and well made

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

I was just astounded that it wound up at the Goodwill!

[@FOXYCECILIA]

nice haul, love that you found some pretty good items and very worthy too.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Yes, not too bad of prices either.

[@peggysiler4626]

Thanks for taking us for the ride that was fun. You got a pretty good haul. You can't go wrong on boxes. See you next time take care

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

So true! Every one loves a box.

It's starting to pile up Lynn!

[@theoldsonso]

Oh Abigail, awesome finds

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Thanks! It was definitely a good day to get out of the house for some thrifting.

[@theresahiggins6643]

Love your style.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Thank you!

[@elainebolten5205]

So many fun items! What a great profit! I always look forward to your videos- you get so excited over your finds- I do too!!😊

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

I’m glad you get excited too. Nothing better than sharing with another vintage lover.

[@AlexandraKozub-tp7fe]

Hey girl good job pickin. I love your house right on the lake that’s my dream

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

I just rent but I feel very blessed here.

[@micheles7269]

i have those rose floral curtains in storage! lol

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Lol, get them out! They are great sellers,

[@amandaclark4965]

This was fun! I’ve been following Laura’s series but am on the WA side of the river - so fun to see what’s available up north! ☺️

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@LindaM-wt7wk]

Loved this video! Thank you for taking us along.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

You're so welcome!

[@cynthiahudson5228]

I love trinket boxes! You found some good ones!

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

I especially love the Mexican lacquered one!

[@andreawilkerson2006]

So enjoyable and informative. Thank you!!!

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

You're so welcome!

[@agomodern]

9:12 I love picking up wood pieces like the wine rack and brushing stain all over, wiping off the excess, and giving it a fresh coat of lacquer. It's so easy to do and makes a HUGE difference. I think I stand out that way in my Etsy shop since I have a lot of experience with furniture restoration. Goodwill is so random with prices, like on that very old religious piece. 31:42 Definitely a piece from Honduras. I kind of collect mahogany pieces from Honduras and just yesterday picked up a killer serving tray with tile inserts. Kind of a giveaway since they are made with Honduran mahogany. 34:45 Reminds me of sculptures by Botero.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Yes! I have a couple of retroglobe standing lighted globes with wood bases I picked up today and want to over them with stain. I never put lacquer on them but maybe I should try that. Yes, I agree, Goodwill is literally all over the place for pricing!

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Good point on Botero, just sold to glicee prints of his and that horse could be in one of his pieces for sure.

[@agomodern]

@@AbigailsArtfulAbode Stain won't dry without spraying it with lacquer. You can buy lacquer in a can for small areas, but I use my air compressor and spray gun.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

@@agomodern Oh that’s true! I think I have a can at home.

[@carynsimonsen4960]

Man you really scored! Love so many of your finds :)

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

I was thrilled!

[@jinabell]

Dutch Bros for SF iced coffee. I get a large iced protein coffee salted caramel extra sweet. The best! 😊

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

They're the best!!

[@dianadelahaye7660]

Awesome finds, love the Portuguese plate

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Me too! It’s so very pretty 😍

[@bearbigs998]

new sub here- awesome videos- you must be independently wealthy- wow a store in a historic building, house on the water, house on the water in another country- would love to hear how you achieved so much-

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Hello! Lol, I truly wish that was the case. I feel very abundant and blessed for sure but my place on the water here is a rental, my place in Mexico I built over 25 years ago.

[@bestlife8709]

scores galore! Love the beauty of the state too!

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

So pretty in the summer especially! It was a good thrifting day for sure.

[@AlexandraKozub-tp7fe]

Lucky you have a great store. Hope you sell it all. My home is store very cluttered basement full. Lots not listed got way behind 35 yrs collecting stuff. Need to have huge living estate sale pay the people to set up and sell it all. Tired of stuff and clutter. Basement guest room full I’m in trouble want my basement back and guest room need for grandchildren oh boy wish me LUCK I NEED IT NEED HELP

[@buttonsacorns3734]

This was a lot fun to watch. Loved seeing what you paid and what you will charge. You found many great items.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Oh good, slightly different than what I usually do but glad you enjoyed it.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Yes, get an estate sale company and have a big sale!

[@AlexandraKozub-tp7fe]

@@AbigailsArtfulAbode hey girl thanks for helping me out I have so much stuff I’m in trouble now hum brick ranch is full basement guest room is full no where for my son and grandson to sleep . I will try to find someone I have a big job for them. What do I do with the stuff that dosnt sell after estate sale? I love your home with the water and your place in Mexico so nice too. You do a great job on your own it’s hard.

Thanks again love your videos do some blogs of you at your home while chillin

[@odettepeters7493]

Great haul!

Thank you! 😊

[@patgustafson6077]

Awesome finds, Abigail!!!

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Thanks Pat!

[@mayramanzano1738]

Abigail the Ralph Lauren glasses are worth a lot I sold a set of 6 for $100

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

I know!! I found a set in that Goodwill that also sold for $100. Hoping to get lucky again.

[@glorybresale5047]

Love you channel! I with you would put your snapshots on the right though because the price always gets cut off and it looks like everything sells for 9.99. ❤🌻

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Oh, I will try that. Maybe I'll move over to make room.

[@lynndaniels6015]

Our goodwills are so bad! They have nothing.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

I remember being in New Mexico and being shocked at how empty it was in Santa Fe. But I here Arizona is great.

[@risevintagegoods6765]

I have such bad luck at that St. Vincents, but you did great!

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

I usually just go for shoes. Not sure where they get them from but they always have really cute ones

[@kathleenproctor5207]

I live in same area so it was like watching one of my thrifting days. Gig Harbor used to be a great store but now I hardly ever bother to stop. It is also in a different Goodwill region than the other three stores. Gig Harbor belongs to the Tacoma/ Olympia region while the other three are part of Evergreen which also includes Seattle which may explain why there is always better stuff. Love your videos!

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Yeah and those stores I feel don't usually deliver much. I have found some items in Gig Harbor recently but not this time.

[@annmariemarin5513]

Love ya!🎉

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Lol, thanks!

[@katt6894]

OMG! We just found the same sick call shadow box at Goodwill yesterday. We wanted to get it , but it was missing the picture that goes in the bottom where the door is located. I hate it when you find something interesting, but it's broken 😢

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

I wonder if you could have just printed something and put it in. Honestly not sure what I'm going to do with it. I really, really hate the idea of shipping it.

[@lionheart830]

Enjoyed the video and subscribed. Please slow down the camera. I did feel dizzy in some spots. Thanks and good luck with your channel! Oh, be careful with that background music too! You will get dinged by Ebay.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Thanks for subscribing. I’m always working on slowing down. Have gotten better but can improve.

[@lionheart830]

@@AbigailsArtfulAbode Hey, we all can improve one way or another! No ofense.

[@wandajuul5150]

That's not an edition number on the Starbucks mug. That was a series of 8 mugs, and you have number 5 in the series.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Well duh, lol, that makes so much more sense!

[@djmond3497]

Hello Abigail! Do you launder your linens before you sell them? Do you dry clean them?

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Gosh no, unless there's a stain I need to get out. I just buy soooo much and it takes so much time to process it all that things are sold as found.

[@lavonsory8807]

Slow down a little ,making me dizzy.lol

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

I will try!
