I hope all is well, sure missing you and aunt Penny ❤

[@ruthfitzwater-cn3vc]

Great idea about taking some large shopping bags. I usually (within minutes) find a couple of things so I ask “May I start a pile?” Added advantage, it’s usually close to the checkout line and they keep an eye on it. Since I’ve been collecting from my early twenties I often think one day this will be my house with people going through and saying ‘she collected that?’

[@auntiepennylane1958]

Great advice and great haul !! Love my tablecloth!! Thank you for shopping for me!! ❤️❤️

[@dianeurban5459]

Great haul! I love the butter molds and the carolers.i love burning a good candle too

[@bobbihofacker2706]

A flashlight 🔦 is good to have as well. Love tablecloth

I always pick up seasonal/holiday pieces year round, especially Christmas. I don't really decorate for holidays except Christmas, but i do add pieces in my everyday decor for Easter, July 4th & Thanksgiving. I want to find a cabinet so i can do a cabinet of curiosities! I have butter molds on my long hunt/wish list, the small g large ones! I've only ever found A couple & they were wayyy too pricey😬 Really love the larger round one! You can take the newer wood utensils & soak them in hot tea, or you could use coffee too.. It stains them to look old. And if you take A knife or fork, or whatever, & make little scratches on them they look even older when you stain them. That rolling pin is really neat! I love anything old & made of wood.. Large or small! The Good Will back where i lived in Tennessee didn't have the bagged items, they basically only had clothes &a few shelves in the back with literal junk on them🫤 I only ever why in there twice. But there's lots of Good Will stores in & around the Tampa area so hopefully they'll have the bagged items! I see people get some really awesome things in those bags! Thanks for all the tips! I never went to an estate sale because when we lived in Tennessee we owned a large thrift store, basically the only one in our area besides one small one.. there were just lots of antique stores. We never shopped for the store.. People donated very regularly, any estate sale within the county or near by would bring anything not sold in to the store, house clean outs that our recovery home guys would do were always donated too.I went to house clean outs and barn & storage shed clean outs sometimes.. thats where i really found some amazing treasures! I was usually the one that went thru everything to weed out the junk. When I going thru things, when i found pieces i wanted, which i always found things, my husband would put money in if it was of any value. We also owned a men's recovery home that was non profit so the store helped to fund the home. All that to say that why i didn't go because things came to us🤷‍♀️ Maybe not the best pieces but I found lots & lots of treasures nevertheless😉😊 But now that we've moved I'm hoping to get to go to some estate sales! Ohhh girl we did so many house clean out that were hoarders.. it was crazy🤯 Unbelievable the things you'll find in a hoarders home.. and not always good things😬🫣 Again thanks for the great tips.. I'm excited to hopefully get to go to a few! You had a great haul & I enjoyed!😊

[@karenholdingmyown]

I’ve only gone to 1 estate sale, we don’t get many out here in maine. It was definitely a different experience. Many things I just couldn’t afford. But I managed a few littles. Your nuns and choir boys are so adorable!❤

[@TheCuratedHome]

Great haul and tips Kayla! Have a blessed week!! ❤❤❤

[@cindyhancock5261]

Thanks for the tips Kayla! Love the haul!❤

[@ola-maes7769]

Loved your haul. If no one has already mentioned it, when you shared the wood butter molds, the first little one is actually a biscuit cutter, not a butter mold. Just a lil FYI.

[@laurievoelker9005]

👋🏻 Excellent tips. I go to Estate sales, but I always feel somber,almost guilty. To look around and realize within those walls is the sum total of the persons story. Not people of course. Recently I came across an E. sale and 4 Martha Washington bedspreads for $4. One fit my bed perfectly. Haven't tried the others yet. So hard to find spreads that work on todays high mattresses and cover pillows. You found some wonderful items. 😊

[@DeannaMoyers]

My favorite was the round butter mold....I'm trying to find a few more of these to add to my collection. Thanks for the good advice.

[@debrajudd9850]

Love all of your fun finds. Great tips too 😊

[@jeane561]

Kayla you found some wonderful things. I especially love the Nun carolers and the other set too. The butter molds are always a good find. Penny’s tablecloth is beautiful too. Wonderful tips for estate sales. Another thing to check for is whether the estate sale is giving out entrance numbers hours before the sale starts. READ THEIR AD CLOSELY. We went to one early and no one was there and we thought wow we’re going to be first but no😒. When it was time for the sale to start people came out of nowhere with their numbers in hand and when the door opened we had to sign up and of course we were last.😅. Love and blessings ❤️❤️❤️

[@hullabalooohio3086]

Jeane your so right there’s a company in my area that gives out #’s on the 1st day so I always go very early to make sure I’m 1st or 2nd in line my husband got me a fold up chair & I always take a big bag I keep 1 in my vehicle & my husbands & always take snacks 😊 & a bag for any empty water bottles 😊 she sure did get great stuff ❤ I love her & aunt Penny 😊

[@jeane561]

@@hullabalooohio3086 I love them too❤️

[@lindanorrell7812]

Kayla you are so precious You are a great witness for Jesus Bless you Thank you for sharing

[@katiemansfield973]

The carolers are adorable. Great tips.

[@samanthadurbin4783]

Kayla miss you so much hope all is well with you and aunt Penny God Bless

[@isaacsrustywagon]

Such fabulous finds. I haven’t been to a good estate sale in years. Heck, I haven’t even made it to a single yard sale this season. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I’m slacking. Haha. This video definitely makes me want to go. Thanks so much for sharing. ♥️

[@rubileija4488]

That is awesome that some Estate sales let you take your own bags inside here in Florida they dont let you take your own bags or purses inside but they do have their own baskets to use some not all

[@elizabethwhite196]

Great advice and very informative. I liked the butter molds. I actually have the inner parts of the decorative ones and I always assumed they were sugar cookie presses! Who knew?!Ive only been to a couple of estate sales that I just stumbled across and they’ve always been fun.

[@karenhanley3912]

Beautiful tablecloth and love that long basket 🧺

[@theoldsonso]

Love the butter molds!!! And thank you for the awesome tips ❤

[@briggsyontheridge3598]

Great tips & a great haul! ❤

[@robynbohbot3709]

Excellent tips on estate sales. I've learned those tips myself through the years. Also, if credit cards are accepted as payment, sometimes they will charge you the credit card fee - usually just a few dollars. I loved the carolers too as well as the beautiful table cloth. You ladies always find the best treasures.

[@DonnaStarrett]

Great finds Kayla!! I love estate sales!!

[@iveybellelane8311]

I work for an estate sale company. Your tips are spot on! We've sold just about everything you can possibly think of. People definitely line up early, especially when there is a really unique item. When I was "just" a customer 2 of my all-time favorite purchases were 1-a 6 ft tall heavy, heavy, HEAVY wood nutcracker. I named him Chester. 2- a 1st edition 1879 salesman's sample Mark Twain's "Tramp Aboard". I'd love to hear your favorite estate sale purchase.

[@jackiewilson2917]

Love the baskets and can’t wait to see how you style them for fall! I need to go back and see how Aunt Penny displayed her butter molds because I was looking at some yesterday ☺️

[@susannewland1259]

Very nice estate sale haul! Aunt Pennies tablecloth beautiful 💙❤️

[@debby891]

Great finds! I love candles too and burn them everyday and get so excited when I find them and wax melts at yard sales and estate sales.

[@PennyHammond-xb4ti]

Thank you so much Kayla for the wonderful tips on estate sales my husband and I love going to them and those were very helpful tips !

[@kimberlyapplegate5188]

I loved your vintage christmas carolors. Those were so stinking cute. ❤

[@carlaking3459]

Loved the red, white and blue tablecloth❤ Another thought to consider esp if an estate company is not doing the sale, be mindful that typically a family having this sale, may have recently lost their loved one or they moved to memory care unit, etc. be respectful of their experiences and their loved ones items. It can be hard to watch all your parents things going out the door for example. This is also why I would recommend an estate company. Even if they just come in and buy what's left after family has gone thru. Also a recent sale I went to run by a company, I could tell they knew what they had and priced accordingly. I thought if they'd just price a little lower than an antique store, more sales might happen for the family. I know I would have bought more items if just a bit better prices.❤

[@j.christian6801]

I like the carolers too!

[@rfranksensey]

I love the singing nuns and tablecloth! Great estate sale tips!

[@Mythriftedhome214]

You found some wonderful things! Love all the Carolers ❤ one thing I would add is if you can, walk through all the rooms/garage twice. There are things I totally missed the first time around in my excitement and going back around I am able to calm down, slow down and see things I missed!

[@victoriabourgeois3273]

Girl. I live in Co., but when Iam no more, I’m sure my daughter will get someone to get rid of my treasures. Would love you and Aunt Penny to be first to come thru. I especially love watching your home tour. Tfs cheers

[@scsymo1]

Great tips-thank you!!

[@marlenezagar4487]

Great haul and great advice.

[@felicialong6546]

I love all your treasures that you found. Your tips were very informative. I would have never thought to do most of them. I can’t wait to see the way you style the little carolers at Christmas. God Bless you and your family and of course Aunt Penny.

[@teressagoldstein3769]

I’d like to also add a few things to the estate sale etiquette rules or however people want to call it. Always check to see if they have special parking instructions. Do not block the driveway that is going to be used to load large pieces on. Lastly be mindful of there yard. For instance if you’re there early waiting in line, don’t leave water bottles, wrappers etc for someone else to clean up. Loved your haul! Take care.❤

[@LittleCahabaJunkin]

Yes!!! Excellent tip! I always get so frustrated when I see people pulling all into the yard and tearing up the yard/grass!

[@cindyblumenthal8315]

Going to add, please be aware of mailboxes, if you block a mailbox the mail carrier will skip that box. That is not fair for the homeowner.

[@SharonNickson]

Oh yes! Good advice! I always go as close to the end as I can when it’s 75% off or fill a bag for $5- I have found really great stuff that way. And it’s easier to donate it to the thrift store if you don’t really like it because you only paid a small amount for it. And I love the tablecloth it’s perfect!

[@tmt3253]

Tablecloth and big floor throw basket

[@joannaschroeder3067]

Wonderful tip! Love those butter molds and aunt Penny’s vintage table cloth!

[@mindywise6045]

Love the butter molds, state sales are the best!!

[@dianewilliams9729]

[@sheiklablount5862]

Excellent tips and tricks for estate sale shopping. Great haul Kayla. Love the butter molds.

[@glendamcclung2343]

Some estate sale companies will give you stickers that say "sold". Very helpful when wanting bigger items.

[@robertahubbell9038]

I love the tablecloth. I am a collector of them. You got some cute things. Give Buster a hug for me.

[@irmalopez2696]

My girlfriends and I went to an estate sale on the last day and it was raining, I got a vintage 1970 Princes house crystal bud vase for a dollar, a pampered chef pizza stone brand new for 1.00 ,

[@celinebeese8447]

Great finds! I have the same long basket on my kitchen counter and filled with cutting boards

[@debm2057]

I LOVE all of your finds. I went to an Estate sale today too, but you got much better items.

[@hullabalooohio3086]

Good morning sweet lady 😊 you found great treasures ❤ I love the butter molds & biscuit cutter & rolling pin & the figurines I’ve got the 2 carolers ❤ great tips I do the same & always be respectful because that’s someone’s home that they loved dearly I always think about they’re story of the ppl & they’re home & feel very Blessed to find special treasure to take home & love ❤ I know someday that could be my home if I go by the way of the grave before the rapture 😊 I feel the rapture closer than ever before 🙌🏻🙌🏻 anyway sweet lady loved aunt Penny’s table cloth it’s beautiful have a Blessed wk 😊 Thank you for sharing ❤

[@bonniesmith1179]

You got some adorable things at this estate sale, but although I really loved every piece you got, but y favorite is the butter molds. I live in West Texas and I have never found any butter pats or butter molds at any estate sale, garage sale, antique shop, or thrift shop anywhere around here, and they are 2 things I really do want to find. I love when Aunt Penny shows hers. It's so amazing to see her collection of the various old butter molds. I never realized until you showed the ones you got that they had been in SO many different sizes- from really small to quite large.. .Thanks for sharing your haul with us, You really did get some really neat things!

[@kathyeason7463]

You sure did fine some good stuff. Great haul.thanks for sharing ❤❤❤

I liked all of your haul & thanks for the tips. My favorite items that you found are the butter molds (because that is something that i have never collected BUT am seriously planning to, if i see any at a reasonable price. Thanks Kayla for the video.

[@marybroyhill1976]

I love the table cloth you picked up for Aunt Penny. Thank you for the tips and tricks!

The little singing nuns are too sweet.

[@karenbrewer5864]

My favorite item you got were the little boy carolers. I’m also a collector of butter molds. I have one like the first one you showed and I call it a biscuit cutter. I can just see Penny’s tablecloth draping out of a picnic basket with an apple display for Fall. You gave some great tips! Thanks.

[@sheliagage2227]

Such a good video about going to estate sales. You had a great hall from your estate sale.

[@cindyblumenthal8315]

I am in Hoover, would love to know what area this estate sale was. Great finds!

[@elizabethmcintosh5238]

The small wood round what you called a butter mold, is actually a biscuit cutter.

[@debbiescott1269]

Mine too sweetie, the little statues ❤️

[@renapruett7330]

A little air dry clay can make a new hand for your nuns love the butter molds❤

[@margaretgarner853]

Hi Kayla!

[@renapruett7330]

You need a go bag in your car ready to go tape gloves masks big bags❤

[@katierojas8066]

I know this is kinda extreme but I think it’s wise as you were talking about the hoarder estate sales, to make sure you’re up to date on your vaccines like tetanus shots. I ain’t trying to brush up against rusty metal or rusty nails in these places.

[@hopenchrist]

You should make something that looks like a little bible and glue it in the nun’s missing hand.

[@lesliejackson8188]

*You found fabulous items, Kayla❣️ LOVE THEM ALL‼️🥳💥* *Some tips for you; take a little notebook about the size of your palm, and as you load your bag, write down the name of the item (like book, game, butter mold, carolers, salt & pepper set) and next to it write the price. Then, before you take your goodies to the cashier, add them up: Number of items and Total Price. That way, you make sure YOUR TOTAL matches the CASHIER'S TOTAL, and as you're packing your items into the bags or boxes, you don't LEAVE ANYTHING BEHIND‼️😎 Also GET A RECEIPT if you can, so you have proof you didn't STEAL SOMETHING. It can be as simple as a handwritten note (take a blank page out of your notebook) and have the person write, "15 items for a total of $50.00." If you are taking a video, film the purchase where you hand the cashier the CASH money, COUNTING IT OUT LOUD AS YOU HAND IT TO THEM. That way, nobody can say you only handed them a $10 bill when you actually handed the person a $20 bill‼️ I AM NOT ACCUSING CASHIERS OF BEING DISHONEST, but when things are busy and hectic and a lot of people are talking at once, confusion and honest mistakes happen‼️ This is a way to guarantee a great transaction for BOTH YOU AND THE SELLER❣️😉 Also, PLEASE don't park on their grass or flowers‼️ Have consideration for the yard and landscape at the Estate Sale AND TAKE YOUR TRASH WITH YOU - INCLUDING CIGARETTE BUTTS - IF YOU ARE A SMOKER‼️ No one wants to clean up someone else's GARBAGE when an Estate Sale is over‼️💯😎 BE KIND and Observe the Golden Rule and treat others the way you want to be treated. 😊 It's just COMMON SENSE, people, LOL.👍🏼😁*

[@MicheleBehrendt]

The golden rule

[@dianeburnett894]

THANKS SO MUCH for reminding everyone to be RESPECTFUL and COURTEOUS at the homes of deceased loved ones' families! I cringe every time, I click on a channel, and the reseller is RECORDING and COMMENTING (usually not complimentary)at an estate sale. I find it just brutal to watch, and usually I don't finish watching no matter how much I love the you tuber! This is someone's home, not a black Friday sale, at Walmart! NOT COOL, Y'ALL! So, I appreciate you so much for your tips, thoughts, compassion, understanding, and encouragement! God bless you, Kayla!🙏 ❤🙏 PS: NONE OF US KNOWS THE DAY OR HOUR OR WHO THE NEXT ESTATE SALE WILL BE. THINK ABOUT IT!❤ R E S P E C T E A C H O T H E R

The large woven basket with the wood handles is the same one I've had for many years. I've used it lined with a cardboard box for firewood. It can hold blankets also. It now is my kitty's bed in the garage. It will last you forever ! I wish I could remember where I got mine. 🤔
