What a fun episode! Just a wonderful, interesting shop. I love the narration, learning something new each week!

[@kitschyoyo78]

I think this store is what Goodwill dreams to be when it grows up! 😊

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Well said!

[@sharonmcmanus2019]

My daughter and I were here last February, so fun to see this video. It is a fantastic shop.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Hope you can drop by The Guild Shop again soon.

[@glenyshillary4195]

Beautiful shop, but would have loved to see the jasperware salad bowl in your thumb nail shot!

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Got lost in editing. 😔

[@maryshields1935]

You must have been amazed to learn the history of your teacup, an amazing find!

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Could hardly believe it. Glad I had not completed the eBay listing to sell for $100. Just knew this deserved some research.

[@nanciebanasiewicz6504]

Incredible!! What a place 😮 So many things to look at. I would be there all day. Thank you so much and as usual you gave a wonderful presentation 😊

[@jojoply]

Great episode. I was dying over the Lenox butterfly dishes.

[@sandraholeman1708]

Thanks so much for this awesome video❤! This is one that I will visit numerous times, so many beautiful items and ideas😊!

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Glad you enjoyed The Guild Shop. Thanks for watching and re-watching!

[@dianayavetz6286]

The JFK piece is a real treasure. We share the same birthday and when he was President I sent him a card and received one back. One of my best memories.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Wow, that is really special to have received a birthday card from President Kennedy.

[@joycleckley2881]

What a beautiful history of this wonderful dedicated, Godly women to jelp the elderly. I myself, adore the elderly from a very young age. Learned they are walking history lessons. My parents taught us children to love and respect those older. My whole nursing career was with the elderly in ICU/CCU. Touched my heart immensely.❤❤❤. Thank you LMB. My heroine now.

[@ruthkendall5486]

My Hermes scarf is from the late 80s and is the original horse head motif . It was gifted to me by a coworker who went to France on company business.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

That is my kind of souvenir. Fabulous!

[@wightwick13]

Do you mean the Brides de Gala scarf? Have this scarf in black and white square and in oblong mousseline in shades of blue. Design was created by Hugo Grygkar in 1957. It was a favourite of the late Queen.

[@susprime7018]

Lots of lovelies, thanks for sharing Air Force one teacup and saucer set.😊

Thanks for watching! 🥰

God bless The Guild Shop. What a wonderful mission. ♥

Great video, I will be watching it again tomorrow 😊

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@debbemitchell4816]

Love the shop! I've found wonderful jewelry there. 😊

[@LadyMaryBeth]

The best! Got my start thrifting there while in high school.

[@LindaHarding-v5x]

The guild shop is marvellous your presentations are very interesting from Linda UK

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Hi, Linda! Seeing your message as I am leaving The Guild Shop. Perfect timing! Found a Wedgwood Jasperware tea caddy that has been at the top of my wish list. Thanks for your message.

[@stephenholmes5362]

Great shop!

[@camillesaville3961]

By far, my favorite place to go thrifting. I could spend days there, going from one room to another. You picked up some real gems there, LMB. We have to do it again!❤

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Definitely! Come back to Houston when you can.

[@landear8]

I loved looking at everything. It’s no wonder you started your thrifting history here. What a wonderful cause the Guild supports. I love your dress, the colour and cut, so beautiful on you. It’s your colour. I picked up the same candle wick platter at my local 2nd hand store. I have 2 sizes now.🌸🌿🌺

[@BrunieStudios]

Really great tour….would love to own the pink Chanel tote❤

[@Michelle-ky8tn]

What a fantastic store, I can understand why you’ve shopped there so long. The selection is beyond amazing for a second hand store, I wouldn’t even bother doing retail if I lived there. It would be interesting if you did a vlog about your time with Waterford, have you considered doing that, I just find your knowledge is so valuable and it would be nice to know what started your career, thanks again for taking us along.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Thanks for watching and appreciating The Guild Shop. It is near and dear to me. Take a look at a previous segment on Waterford Crystal. I talk about the history and artisans, much including my career.

[@heavenboundfarm2159]

Love Love going along with you . I not ly get to see fabulous items some I've never seen before ...and You give us a history listen about ..You always look so elegant...that color looks good on you ...

I'm tempted to come all the way from Boston to visit this shop.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Houston welcomes you! The Guild Shop is calling!

SO many beautiful things! My mom had the iris pattern - it is the state flower of Tennessee!

One more thing to love about the great state of Tennessee!

Lucky you to find JFK's cup and saucer.

[@sarsarsvintagejewelry]

I have lived within 8 miles of the Guild Shop for 20+ years and have never been!!! I see this as a sign I need to go!

[@LadyMaryBeth]

You will love The Guild Shop! ❤️

[@andreamaurer3897]

Wow, JFK's tea cup!! That is shocking. It is a beautiful cup and saucer with an amazing history. You must have been thrilled!

[@leanneporter2661]

@@LadyMaryBeth I live in Wisconsin and we have nice religious based mission thirft stores . Which I love the work of those stores. But I have to say I'm jealous of yours in Texas. 😊

[@doublescorpions]

Classy as always! Learned something new! I bought the Orefors 10 point star vase (20:29) at my local thrift shop but didn't notice the signature until I got it home. So delighted! S.

[@ruthkendall5486]

Oh, my heart is breaking; what an awesome shop! I was born and raised in Houston but moved to Atlanta 30 years ago. How I would love to be able to shop the shop

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Come back to Houston for a visit. Lots of great shops in Atlanta, including Southern Comforts and Queen of Hearts.

I can’t believe it!!!one treasure after another❤❤❤You have a hudge knowledge about antiques, thanks for sharing with us. The Baccarat dish is a steal !!! Really great finds !!! Love from Paris. Dominique Die Elsasserin

You were so lucky to find the cup and saucer. I'm glad it was you because you will always appreciate it. 👍💕

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Thank you! It was the find of a lifetime.

[@michelleseveney9113]

I love The Guild Shop! So many amazing gems were found!!! Great video! ❤❤❤

[@MidwestGirl]

OMGoodness - so many beautiful treasures! You found some amazing items to take home with you!

[@angelaevans1636]

Fabulous Thrift Shoppe! You picked beautiful items to take with you…love, love the asparagus tongs and Your JFK presidential cup and saucer is truly a treasure. The gold charm bracelet has my eyes blinking. I definitely remember these growing up, my aunt still has hers. I wouldn’t wear the charms on the bracelet any more. I wear mine as a necklace.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

A charm necklace would be fabulous. Did you see the stairs charm? It was made to commemorate the new staircase installed in her home. There is also one to remind of her Hawaiian honeymoon. Her kids are now liquidating the estate. She must have worn it proudly.

[@XXLady]

Wonderful shop! I'm mesmerized by the China and crystal 😍 I'm fascinated by objects made in countries that no longer exist, like the item from Czecholslovakia you showed us. I thrifted a teacup made by Epiag in Czecholslovakia years ago and it's so lovely, I really treasure it. Thanks for taking us along ❤

[@michaeltoolin8468]

Make sure to pay attention to the slash marks on the Meissen piece; the sugar bowl had two slash marks across the top of what would be considered the hilt portion of the sword. Meissen, however, quality marked inferior pieces with slash marks through or beside the crossed swords portion. One slash for a piece that was sold undecorated, two slashes for a piece deemed inferior, three slashes for a piece of brack quality (containing firing faults) and four slashes for a piece of the lowest quality.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Great to know! Thanks for sharing the Meissen tips.

[@barbarafreindorf9100]

So many beautiful treasures thank you as always for learning something new , love your videos.❤

[@temelynytvideos]

So many beautiful items. Thank you! 😍

[@klarinetta]

Evesham was made from 1961-2015. Already in 1965 there was lot of kitchen accessories in this line and by 1992 Evesham was in every 1 to 5 housholds in the UK. Large line that followed the new trend in the 60's from the kitchen to the table.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Good to know! I see it occasionally at charity thrift stores in Texas.

[@cyndimanka]

I have my child her kewpie doll. I’m 65 and I’m sure that it’s probably around 60 years old. I’ve had it ever since I can ever remember.

[@donnaclinton5578]

That was a wonderful shopping trip! And thanks for showing us your Presidential teacup with the story behind it. It was quite interesting.

[@chrissiewalker8980]

Classy shop with beautiful jewellery. I have a metal allergy so just gold wedding rings and a silver bracelet for me…apart from lots of real plastic and a bit of wood! X

[@patriciamoed9244]

I was disappointed you didn't look at the art work ,Iam a little over looking at glass.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Most of the artwork did not make the editing. Video was too long. 😔

[@sherryking6282]

So many amazing things! Thank you!

[@MarciEllsworth]

Wonderful items! What do red dots on the tags mean please??? ❤❤❤

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Red dots usually mean items should be in locked cases.

[@CharlotteFairchild]

I found the JFK COFFEE CUP YESTERDAY!

[@LadyMaryBeth]

There were very few made for Air Force One. What is the backstamp? Could be White House china or one from his Honey Fitz yacht. A real find!

[@CharlotteFairchild]

For the USN Ship! My nephew did the research for the newest ship bearing JFK’s name for the Navy Archives.

[@CharlotteFairchild]

@@LadyMaryBeth it was an old coffee mug-nothing fine. I paid 40 cents. It had never been used, and was for “67. I was in Pensacola last week. I found my mug in Douglasville, GA yesterday!

[@CharlotteFairchild]

@@LadyMaryBeth my nephew met Caroline at the Christening of the newest JFK.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

How exciting to meet Caroline!

Thank you for sharing so many beautiful China and crystal which is my wickedness when I am shopping at thrift store , recently bought two Waterford biscuit holder complete with no chips they are beautiful. Thank you again.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

China, crystal, and silver make my heart sing.

[@hdragongirl7628]

I can’t believe it. The one time that I visited Houston from Canada in October 2019, I found this shop. I was amazed how much there was to look at and finally made it to the back where I found a classic footed milk glass bowl. I did ask about cowboy boots and was told they were only displayed during rodeo time. Luckily I later found a pair in Arizona. I’d love to return to Texas and this store again.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Houston is calling! Glad you shopped The Guild on your last visit. Stay tuned for a future segment in small town Texas. There are boots! 🤠

I get pretty things at thrift stores. I never see so many beautiful things….

[@LadyMaryBeth]

This store is full of treasures. It's a challenge to not buy everything.

[@CharlotteFairchild]

@@LadyMaryBeth I went to a yard sale after a death in the family. Everything was $2. I bought things I do not need… I have no one to gift. I will cull things I can live without so this does not become hoarding.

Gravy servers must have another use that I am not thinking of.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

I filmed a talking point with uses, but it got lost in editing. Gravy boats can be used on buffets for coffee creamer, salad dressing, chutney, dessert sauce, syrup, and much more.

[@EMedinaP]

👌👌👌👌

[@pollyporter-campbell7493]

Great education. How can you tell the age of Lismore glasses?

[@LadyMaryBeth]

Look at the backstamp. The older, Gothic style letters on the etched "Waterford" mark are older, classic pieces.

[@geom99]

What was the price of the lady's charm bracelet? I kept waiting for you to say it.

[@LadyMaryBeth]

The price tag was featured in the video. I think the initial price is $12,999.

[@Melinda_Ross]

I’d gift it to RFK, Jr who is running for president. I’m not a Democrat but he seems like a kind individual:

[@littledotti]

I am so sorry. I got distracted by all the shiny pretty jewelry. Ohhh there's some beauties there. Sigh.

[@teresaproano7984]

How can I purchase if I am out of state from this Guild shop? Where can I find a great Guild Shop in my area of San Francisco Bay Area? Thank you kindly.🎉

[@LadyMaryBeth]

The Guild does not have an online shop. However, exceptions can be made if a small item. Contact the store and inquire. Jewelry could be an option if they are willing to ship. See the video description for their contact information.
