Goodwill Bins Spring Thrift Flips - High End on a Budget - Reselling

[@vickimontemayor3262]

I’m 75 and my mom and her sisters and I used to make quilts by hand. We’d suspend quilt from family room ceiling and roll up when not quilting. The double wedding ring quilt you found reminds me of the one mom and I made when I married. I also have a round tablecloth I made yrs ago. Seeing all the quilts brings up good memories.💕💕💕

[@carolynlunel9382]

I wrote a previous comment but was just thinking about you guys and have to say it's incredible that you walk into a huge store of bins of (*let's be real..lots of stuff nobody wants) and you find treasures! I don't think I'd have the patience or I'd be overwhelmed by it all and probably leave empty handed & frustrated! You make it look fun and easy! I know it can't be easy..but you make it look that way! You have taught so much about painting and flipping but just watching you thrift makes more of us want to go do it and save it from landfills! You ROCK! And you deserve to be praised I think, for introducing people to this concept. Sorry so long.. I am impressed every time you come out with great finds and give them new life! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@JamiRayVintage]

I’m always shocked to be honest. Everytime I go I think maybe this is the time I don’t find anything. Because the bins. Especially our bins are a hot mess. And honestly we never really stay long. But every time we walk out with stuff that is worth a ton of money. I was really surprised to find a vintage D&B bag in good shape. But then Zeb found that $500 hiking back pack. Like that’s crazy right? So now I’m hooked and I’m gonna be there at least every other week.

[@carolynlunel9382]

@JamiRayVintage yes, that's incredible!! You guys scored BIG this trip!!

[@redandpink219]

Looks like your trips to Goodwill are bringing up some gems for you both! Love this format of thrift and mini makeovers in one vid in conjunction to your other formats.

[@sylvialangworthy1435]

Love all the quilts, nooks and the pink items. The bouquet of roses is lovely! 🤗

[@robincivis9501]

Those machine quilted quilts are something else. I have a friend who does that with a "long arm" quilting machine and it is absolutely an Art!👍

[@pampete8110]

I love the camera work while painting, etc. It was great to see really close of what you are working on.

[@carolynlunel9382]

I collect white quilts & I don't need another white quilt... but I'm sooo tempted 😂by the one in your haul! Absolutely love the blue shelf.. and the roses came out way better than I thought! This was another fantastic bin haul.. I'm truly amazed at what you found!! ❤ Thanks for taking us along!!

[@springhernandez7417]

Love the quilts, the books, awesome. As usually you always transform everything beautifully

[@amyhamilton2201]

I love your old church shop. You are inspiring and teaching me to see things as a thrifter

[@audreyholt7721]

Great day at the bins! Good strategy, waiting for the college kids to throw the quilts aside. I love that little Boyd’s bunny!

[@robinhermann3676]

Love the valentine theme. Looks so pretty. Heidi book yes.

[@danawatts3479]

Looks Great! Every Single Piece redone... Love et all.. Th Ankh you for sharing your tech questions with us

[@karenhills8535]

Such fun thrifting, love how your projects turned out

[@paulavanduynhoven8951]

Wow ❤️❤️❤️ I love all three of the quilts. My grandmother made quilts for over 50 years. Love that wedding ring! Btw that brown and wheat is beautiful too! That blue is amazing on that shelf ❤❤❤❤

[@dorothylehman4164]

Wow, Jamie, we don't have the bins where we live. I wish we did. You get some beautiful beautiful quilt. I would love to have some to put in my hutch. Keep up the good work. I love watching you and zeb

[@leesareize1864]

The HEIDI series of books were my favorite growing up. I hope someone buys it to read to their daughter or granddaughter.

[@pamelaschultz2959]

Heidi, my favorite children’s book. Just read it to my granddaughter. Love your bin dives

[@wendygale4808]

Absolutely amazing videos, love how positive, creative & fun your projects are, thank you sooo much!!!

[@jeannewatkins4074]

the rose bouquet transformation is awesome.

[@christietaylor392]

Zeb, I love old books also and love watching you get excited when you find them. Really enjoyed what you found in England especially that 4 volume Bible set.

[@marcellapitti3216]

You all find slme awesome finds. Love the all you painted, especially Valentines decir and pink flowers!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@homethatilove4595]

Hello to your Sweet Odelia making a special appearance at the Shoppe. Yes, it looks like the JRV outside sign does need some TLC updating.

[@connieguenter5253]

Love that moody blue milk paint. It’s my go-to color.

[@TheRepurposedSouth]

Such awesome finds at the bins! Love the books y’all found 🤩

[@stacybower2106]

I am so jealous of all the thrifty finds!! And the Goodwill Bins are so good!! Happy New Year!

[@SuperAxlgirl]

Such great finds. The sweater and quilts are lovely. The music works so well💕

[@shadygardens2256]

I love watching your channel! I’m getting so many ideas. I’m thinking I have to go to the Goodwill bins. The nearest one to me is about a 50 minute drive. I haven’t been anxious to drive that far, but now I’m thinking it might be worth the drive!

[@pollyporter-campbell7493]

Cool finds. I love the Scottie door stop.

[@elizabethcrooms2006]

Love ya'll. Have a great night!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Good night❤️

[@StefanieB22]

I've always wanted to go to the bins but the closest is 45 mins away but I might go now just to find a quilt! Quits at estate sales are always priced so high!

[@susanhagen9505]

Odelia is so beautiful

[@100percentliving]

Stop! The Kelty backpack! We get soooo excited when we find hiking gear at the thrift! Awesome purchase

[@JamiRayVintage]

Zeb was way excited. We thrift lots of our outdoor gear. This last weekend we took the boys to go shoot their bows we thrifted a few months ago.

[@americansweetheart5597]

I used a shelf just like that to hang my curtains over my bathroom window. I just used a tension rob in-between the corbels.

[@twinnish]

If you find beautiful quilts that are slightly damaged or not perfect enough to sell as you know a quilt, they are still a great idea to keep in store for craft pillows, clothing. There are a lot of people that so that are into using quilts for garments and home decor and using a damaged quilt is kind of considered awesome because we’re saving something beautiful and old and handmade. I’m not sure how you would incorporate that into your store but it would be awesome if you could save those things because the college kids sure won’t. I was also wondering if you go curb shopping when terms let out at the local universities ?

[@daninsteve]

I believe they are called “cutting quilts” when they are damaged, but can still be used for repurposing.

[@kathyortiz4302]

That’s awesome the backpack and the purse,awesome day❤❤

[@cynthiafisher9907]

You did great at the bins! What a good find in that backpack!

[@annaroush972]

Those roses amazing.

[@MrRaymondpeter]

Love to watch you two of you what a lovely couple bless you my children are the same age

[@carflk916]

Oh Jami! I pick up Boyd’s bears too! It does take me awhile to resell them 🫠

[@JamiRayVintage]

This one sold this weekend. But I wouldn’t have minded if stayed in the shop for a bit it was so cute!

[@RoyalRiverRefinishedFurnitureb]

Great video i love to see a mixture of what you guys do and your beautiful home & store. Good to see the pups too. I like the look of the milk paint but have you thought about spray painting the base color to get in all the hard to reach spots and then go over with your paint for the texture effect, just thinking it may save you time with the sane look ❤

[@JamiRayVintage]

We don’t spray in the winter it’s too cold. But we do lots of spraying in the spring and summer months.

[@cookiemonster6401]

I am a retired hotelier. Oxy clean is great, also great are hydrogen peroxide- will not hurt your clothes but it works well for blood, dawn dish soap for ring around the collars and cuffs on white shirts. You can even add a tablespoon or so to the washing tub, it’s a great degreaser. It works well for makeup stains too. Also denture cleaning tablets, just add straight to the washing tub. Spray starch will repel dirt and grime on your whites, just spray it on once dry, you don’t have to iron; including down the front of your shirts. In the hotel industry we use these same items but by other names to keep our white sheets and towels white. I use a cocktail of all of this for my and my husband’s white shirts. They stay sparkling. Beware once an article has gone through the tumble dryer any stains will be set and can’t be removed. If stains are still present, reapply and rewash. Hanging outside is always a great idea.

[@JamiRayVintage]

Love all this! Thanks for sharing

[@kimmartin7511]

Love watching u guys❣ Great finds and so happy your doing more Goodwill Bin thrifting. Mine near me are Awful🥴

[@melonmahfood2439]

Nice finds and I love your flips today!

[@dinabond3547]

Love the shelf, that color is very nice

[@flippinretired]

You two are such a great team!!!

[@colleenhaithcock216]

love the adventure!! and the results!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mesquitemagic]

Odelia has Jami's cute smile.

[@boring.doerings]

The product called Pink gets anything off! I use it for keeping our sneakers white. I get on the big Am store and have it delivered! 😉

[@alisonevans6121]

I use pink too, I used to have a bridal shop and we used swafega to remove make up stains and washed them in an ordinary washing machine, as long as they were not silk.

[@InHisGardenCreations]

I like the roses. I’ve never seen a piece like that, but I think it would have looked better with the Americana on the stems.

[@erin.wilson]

What song are you ending the video with? I wanted to keep listening to it but I can't figure out what it's called or who it's by.

[@debratyler6849]

I love the goodwill bins. Yours is very busy. I wonder how your rose thing would've looked if you had dry brushed some off white color over the brown?

[@veronicapreciado2325]

Love the blankets ,When I go to the bins in San Luis Obispo 1st thing I do is go go with my cart that I take & head to the blankets & deco pillows because same problem collage kids @ clothes & books and the pickers at nick knacks ! I only go 1 time a month because I live 3 hrs away 😢 lol .. But luv what u found and also make overs Fabulous 😊❤

[@scarlethenderson6510]

I think the quilt you found with the circle on it is called wedding ring quilt or at least that's what my grandma used to call them when she would make them

[@worship22811]

I just discovered you all a couple of days ago. So enjoying. I'm curious, what do you do with the old books?

[@JamiRayVintage]

Mostly we sell them as is. We usually find ones that have good subject matter or are great colors for coffee table books or risers.

[@jamiebrandon8475]

I looked on the website store. Trying to find the bunny with the basket from a couple weeks ago

[@JamiRayVintage]

If it’s sold it has been drafted. Here is the link to all the bunny items we have - jamirayvintage.com/search?q=bunny&options%5Bprefix%5D=last

[@CarriePetersen-r2d]

Your shop is amazing although I live on a 6th generation dairy farm. Farmhouse treads have been what I have in my home, also.😅

[@karenhanley3912]

Great video 😊 awesome finds !

[@CS-bn4un]

I had to giggle out loud when you commented on the way the GW outlet looked outside saw I thought about my first visit to the one near Fort Worth. Not a place I would go at night time alone!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Yeah definitely an industrial part of town

[@pamelafisher1986]

is Zeb real? just love him! both of u but his sweet transparency...u literally found a jewel!!!

[@JamiRayVintage]

He is pretty great all the time. ❤️ it’s been 22 years of marriage and we love being together all the time.

[@carolyn8033]

I was thinking those roses were red when you picked it up..maybe I was watching another reseller. 😊 love how you redid it.

[@JamiRayVintage]

They were brown when we bought them. So I’m not sure.

[@pitawalker-robinson7154]

I have lots of old books from the 1880s I sell for $5 at our Sunday Market.

[@JamiRayVintage]

Wow that’s really cheap. Our books vary depending on what they are. Most of these we will sell inexpensive. But sometimes we find gems worth a lot.

[@gloriahartman3632]

To bad you are located all the way out west would love to visit your unique adorable store I Live in Indiana. I reaiize I can shop your store On-Line tho!

[@bertieboatright1206]

Back pack … Gold 👍

[@barbking286]

I have never seen this here in Canada, Goodwill (which we have) stuff set out in bins? A very different concept. Have fun.

[@JamiRayVintage]

It’s sold by the pound. Its a fun adventure

[@barbking286]

Interesting. Thank you.@@JamiRayVintage

[@juliejems555]

Can I paint cottage colors directly on concrete. Or do I need to seal it first?

[@JamiRayVintage]

Is it decor? I have used it on concrete decor items no problem.

[@homethatilove4595]

So happy that Zeb found a backpack he's very excited about!! I wonder why you have goods in hand before they "released the kids" to the bins ?? 🤨 Were you going thru different bins ? Or the older adults go first ?

[@JamiRayVintage]

They had other bins out they change them multiple times a day.

Hi, I believe you meant sale on until the end on January 2024 not 2023 I know it takes a while to get used to. You guys rock the flips once again. Jami I really like your hair down like that. Happy healthy new year.

[@JamiRayVintage]

lol yes 2024. I’m not ready for the new year yet. My hair was down wet so I just let it air dry ❤️. I usually pull it back once it starts bugging me but I lasted a while today.

[@DeborahGrubb-y5r]

What do you use to clean your brushes

[@TheCo2rrt]

How do i buy the bird on the books?

[@JamiRayVintage]

It sold. All our items get listed Saturday at 8:30pm MT once a week. jamirayvintage.com/collections/saturday-thrift-haul

[@lynedington5587]

Did you get the Heidi book? I love it.

[@JamiRayVintage]

Sure did❤️

[@sarahbull770]

I would LOVE to buy DIY paints in Australia. Any chance of them selling here? Ps. Love you guys and your work. X ❤️

[@JamiRayVintage]

We can ship there from our retail site. But the manufacturer doesn’t have any retailers in AUD

[@Rosa-bd8xk]

Even if there is a hole you can use them in a hoop situation. 🤷‍♀️

[@JamiRayVintage]

Agreed. In the handmade quilts I buy no matter what. If they are machine quilted I am a little more picky.

[@michaelpike4989]

Hey! New subscriber here . I really like your couch and am curious as to where you got it! Thanks and really enjoy your channel! ~Becky~

[@JamiRayVintage]

It’s something we bought wholesale for our shop. We do sell it on our website it’s a special order item as we don’t keep it in stock

[@raylanadamsdiscoverychanne2816]

Awesome ❤

[@annlawrence852]

Do you ever find any bedbugs? I am very wary about them.

[@JamiRayVintage]

No never. We do wash all linens and fabrics on a high temp wash. But it’s not super common here in Utah and we haven’t ever found any in years of thrifting

[@homethatilove4595]

The wedding ring quilt appears to be one of the made in China ones…you need to learn about quilts!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Its hand sewn, all the stitches are irregular not machined.

[@jamabailey3529]

Is this video really from Jan 2023 or did you mean the discount on the paint is good till the end of Jan 2024?

[@JamiRayVintage]

It’s good until 2024 I misspoke

[@joniallen6880]

How was that only 38 dollars with those heavy quilts?

[@JamiRayVintage]

You know I’m not sure how they scale everything. They weigh the quilts separate from other things

[@aceoffice776]

Thats funny...."do you all really paint your stuff?"

[@JamiRayVintage]

Sure do

[@barbararaisbeck8821]

I don’t mean to be a downer on your quilts but at least one of them had a tag and was mostly likely imported from China. As a long arm quilter I do believe you should be careful of the claims on these quilts as a way of respecting our small businesses.

[@JamiRayVintage]

The mass produced quilts will not be as valuable. And they will not sell for as much has homemade. We did get one quilt that is hand stitched.

[@CathyCox111]

Wash your hands after you touch the books before you touch your skin. A person reading old books had sin issues after he touched his skin.

[@bobbipetty7411]

The sound is terrible

[@marysanchez6886]

Its a shame that people that can afford it are thriftying to profit.. This stores are for people that can't afford it on clothes,furniture,dishes,n shoes..😮

[@JamiRayVintage]

The store we shop at the most is Deseret industries and the people they help don’t need home decor, they need food and shelter. So the more they sell the more they can help. And I don’t know if you noticed but our stores are overflowing. There is still plenty of clothing and home goods for people that need a discount. Our stores get so many donations they often send some away because they have too much.
