I bet you are right, Mary Beth. They probably had a store. Hard to believe someone would have all this just as different collections. Thanks for sharing your finds.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Thanks for coming along for the estate sale.

[@bronaghtowler2632]

I love your videos, you have a great voice. Thank you for showing a more genteel way of life x

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Great to hear from you! I appreciate your kind words. 😘

[@mollyfien]

I think your idea that they had a gift shop is right on. Boxes, multi items of the same thing, and so much merchandise really makes sense.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

The collections were overwhelming and that gift room was like a mini warehouse. 😳

[@anaconcessabingham8405]

Wow so many exquisite things in one place! One could spend a fortune.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Definitely!

[@marydray6171]

And I’m really glad you got that Mikasa nativity set, fabulous find! Respectfully, Mary Dray

[@Saigonchic]

I luv attending estate sales .... you can tell alot about the people who lived there by what they own or collect😊

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Exactly! It’s like a peek into their lives. I have great respect and empathy when shopping an estate sale.

[@florarhea1661]

Loved the nativity. Wouldn't that look beautiful with crystal trees? You have exquisite taste!

[@LadyMaryBeth]

I added a Dansk crystal angel and Orrefors votive to this nativity set. Featured in the Holiday Home Tour. 🎄

[@sashineb.2114]

This was fun to see, Lady Mary Beth. Thank you for filming this. I love the etched eggs, particularly the golden one, and the face pots. I had never heard of those before, but they do remind me of Doulton Toby character jugs, which come in various sizes. The blue vase is beautiful, and it would be lovely on a window sill, catching the light as it passes through the window. Your angel will be a nice addition to your Christmas decorations, possibly as part of a gathering on your dining room buffet. Thanks for showing us these lovely items.

[@vickimckenney6173]

I love the Harmony Kingdom collection!!! My Hubby bought me an owl that I cherish in my collection!!! The little face pots were also very interesting!!! 🥰

[@LadyMaryBeth]

That is awesome! It's such a nice collectible. Was not that familiar with face pots until this estate sale. Love learning about new collections.

[@ginagibson407]

Omgoodness so many nice collectibles 👍🏾

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Greetings from Texas! The plates are priced individually and I think they were $5 each on the last day of the sale. However, this was an estate sale that I shopped. It's not a retail store and they liquidate to another buyer after it's over. Long gone. Trust me, I am wishing I had bought a couple more items.

[@myerslaboratory5628]

Beautiful eggs 😍😍😍

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Thank you! 🤗

[@julielozano1852]

Great items! I like that you have discipline, I have none and get caught up in the excitement 😂😂

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Self-control is not always my strong suit while shopping for treasures. Filming is a good distraction. The last day of the sale is a good strategy for deals.

[@MariaRodriguez-fy5uw]

Lady Mary Beth, I think you’re so elegant and so beautiful all your videos are magnificent. I’m not a person to subscribe but I had to subscribe to you, God bless you and your family. I find your videos so informative, I especially enjoy your videos on Waterford. I’ve purchased many Waterford pieces, now that I know what to look for. I’ve watched all your videos looking forward to many more. Thank you.

Of course, there are so many beautiful areas in Houston I am probably wrong! Either way, thank you for taking us along and providing valuable information on so many items. I love the oversized Mikasa Holy Family you purchased and can imagine that will provide a stunning accent or focal point in any room of your home. As always.....a pleasure to view. ♥️

Your channel is very relaxing God bless and stay safe

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Wishing you a Happy Mother’s Day as well! 💐 Thrift stores and Goodwill will have wheelchair access. Wish the private homes could accommodate. In some cases, estate sales are off-site due to HOA restrictions. Then, it would be possible when in a commercial building.

[@almabahena7210]

Where do you resell some of your items? Wanted to share: yesterday I decided to go to an estate sale, second day, almost at closing time. Bought a solid mahogany dresser and chest to finish off my bedroom suite. $100 for both!! Immaculate condition

Those giraffes probably came from Africa. I do not collect African art but I bought one-off those giraffes from a visiting missionary at my church once, the people hand carve them to sell there. They were nicely carved and painted.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Bet you are right about them being from Africa. I have a small collection that I feature on "Wild about..." tablescapes. First one I did was "Wild about Chocolate" which was fun for the staff at my kid's elementary school. Those hand carved animals are treasures.

Thank you for taking us along on your adventures. After viewing many of your videos recorded in you dining room, I have noticed what appears to be punch bowl set on a stand in the far corner. Do you use it or is it just a collectible on display? I’m curious if people still use punch bowl sets. Also, would you share tips on storing large collectible serving pieces between use and display? Again, thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion for fine crystal and china.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Great to hear from you and good eye! The punch bowl in the corner is the Aztec pattern from McKee Glass Co. This fabulous, all-purpose party staple was one of my first purchases out of college. I must have 200 matching punch cups. Just returned from Nashville after hosting a birthday party. Featured the Slewed Horseshoe punch bowl by L.E. Smith Glass Co. in the center of the buffet. This held the showstopper main course in a creative way. I plan to feature this remote party planning in a future segment.

[@Baharigak]

Hi Lovely Lady Mary Beth.. you’ve introduced me to estate sales and I want to thank you! I went to my first one this past weekend lol and it was interesting. But unfortunately it was the 3rd day of the sale and not much was left. I also did get a little depressed because I felt like we were going through someone’s life, their belongings etc .. Maybe I’m just retarded but I’m overly sensitive to that stuff and it made me hug & cherish my mom more on Mother’s Day yesterday ❤️🌹 and this house you showed had so many beautiful treasures !

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Glad you are discovering estate sales. Sometimes, prices are reduced on the second day. It really depends on the company managing it. Totally understand how it affects you going through someone's lifelong collections and belongings. I approach it with great respect and empathy. Often, I inquire about the family's situation. Sometimes, it's moving on to an assisted living and not a passing. Other times, it's a moving sale or selling off belongings from a second home. I shopped Trace Adkins home in Nashville and this was a divorce situation. Very sad. I have so much more to share about estate sales. Bottom line is that you are helping the family by shopping their estate sale. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Estate Sales are Sooo Sad!!

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Definitely. I have been on both sides of an estate sale. I always approach it with respect for the family and often inquire of the circumstances. Can say that shopping an estate sale is helping the family. They must liquidate before selling the house and moving to the next chapter. It’s bittersweet for sure.

[@treasureseeker8489]

@@LadyMaryBeth I just went to two different estate sales, a couple of miles apart, held by the same company. The strange thing is that both sales were full of unusual Asian items. I asked if the two families were related, and I was told that it was just a coincidence and that both men had served as USA soldiers in the Vietnam war. They said that both PATRIOTIC men had met their wives there and brought them to the USA, but that neither of the two families knew each other. I am sure they could have all been great friends with so much in common and only living two miles apart. I bought great items, but with tears in my eyes, I said a few prayers at both homes.

Hi went to Goodwill today.....found a 10 inch Aynsley Wild Tudor pattern vase for $20 (sticker from Reed and Barton for original price $95). can't find on eBay etc....did I do okay? Also some glass plates, I love them as plant saucers. Then I see them everyday. Also wanted to ask about Edinburgh Glass. While in Uk, bought a large and small crystal glass at a charity shop, when checking out the clerk said I was lucky to find Edinburgh Glass at that price. There is no markings...what do you think?

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Great find at Goodwill! Love your idea to use glass plates as plant saucers. Brilliant! Edinburgh Glass was eventually acquired by Waterford and they kept the brand. However, it eventually faded away with the many changes at Waterford Crystal. They were trying to keep their heads above water. I would say you have some treasures. Awesome!

@@LadyMaryBeth How would I know it really is Edinburgh Glass...I can't see any mark.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

@@janicebleasdale7140 I am reading conflicting information online. Seems that there was once a very visible mark on the surface of the wine glass foot. Others have “Scotland Edinburgh” etched on the base. To confuse matters, some report no markings. 🤷🏼‍♀️ This is all due to different eras and ownership.

Happy mother's Day to you, are all Waterford pieces marked? Or are there some unmarked pieces out there?

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Thanks! Wishing you a Happy Mother’s Day as well! 💐 Most pieces are marked with the acid etched stamp. During my Waterford career, there were a handful of items that missed the mark.Though, it’s a rare occurrence. If there are any pieces you want me to identify, you could post on our Facebook group page. Search Lady Mary Beth’s Table & Tea Settings.

Are the pieces of Waterford that missed the mark due to a manufactures error? Or for another reason?

@@holleyjomartinez4009 Yes, would have literally missed the mark after production. Some acid etched Waterford stamps are faint and hard to find. Look on the underside or base for the stamp on most piece pieces.

I thought Texas was open and free? It doesn’t appear that way from your video. Everyone is still wearing masks and having to social distance. I went to an estate sale this weekend and I were none of those strict rules enforced.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

You are correct that Texas no longer has a mask mandate. The estate sale company called it "social distancing", though I think it was more crowd control. There were too many people in line and it was crowded in the house. Was probably a security issue with the coins and jewelry, too. It's up to each business to "require" masks if they choose. Even then, not everyone wears one.
