Love the year book. 1957, the year I was born. I found a yearbook thrifting a few years back. It had a phone # inside. I called the owner, and mailed it to her. She was thrilled. She had a nasty divorce, and her x got rid of lots of her belongings!

[@shannon_w.]

I was out at a yard sale in the early fall and I found a yearbook from my Mom's Sophomore year! The lady wound up giving it to me 😊

[@LannieLord]

Yearbooks are a good seller . Sadly - the 1950s and early 1960s are getting harder to sell due to the age of the people who are that old : 1980s and 1990s are moving faster. And at the same price. I get the feeling that Goodwill tosses stuff like yearbooks because they are not "basic books" like a novel or a cookbook. You should see LOTS of yearbooks for sale and I never do. They throw them away ..

[@shannon_w.]

I have been looking for a copy of my yearbook everywhere I can think and I still can't find it. I lost mine with my kid's baby books and photo albums and pictures from my childhood up to my kid's toddler years in a move in 2008. I'm still incredibly heartbroken to this day whenever I think of all of those precious pics of memories gone.

[@lindamargolies7759]

Roger has great taste.....why don't you keep these, gorgeous ?yes, napkin holder.

[@lanna7917]

That is so cool what a great story and a kind thing to do to go out of your way to contact her. I'm sure she was thrilled to see it again.😊 There is a yt creator who scavenges a river down in Texas, he found a university ring in the river the name of the person was inscribed into it and he found the guy it belong to. He was so thrilled to get his ring back. Can you imagine thinking you'll never see it again and some random stranger contacts you. Sometimes life is just wonderfully weird. Love the glamour head shots in that yearbook they are epic.

[@brianhenry2385]

“Boxing Ring” is actually a paper napkin holder for outside on a windy day. The “Curtain Rod” is the weight that holds them down and prevents them from blowing away.

[@jaykrehbiel9896]

Plus Frontgate is A great brand!

[@brianhenry2385]

@@jaykrehbiel9896 Yes, I also think it's a good brand and right after I typed my comment, Karen went on to figure out what the holder was.

[@zachman364]

I love thrift shopping too! I can feel bad, maybe back hurting and when I get to a thrift store and take hold of the cart, a miracle happen! I feel much better immediately!

[@ShannaFae2023]

Karen, how cute would the baskets "sign" be above a wall of baskets at the booth? CUTE

[@deborahstone9696]

Great idea hun❤

[@trishabaran1521]

It sure would!

[@cobaltdogs]

Hi Karen…I find that signatures on pottery are easier to read if you put a little cornstarch on the spot where it’s signed and lightly dust it off. It Brings up all the details, so I can read it🤷‍♀️

[@amandakestenbaum9720]

What I like about your shopping aesthetic is that your mind is not closed off to anything. It obviously works well for Karen and I love watching you shop. 👍🇬🇧

[@PennyZefkeles]

😅..😅

[@debbielafoy1052]

I can’t wait for your Sunday videos! You have become my favorite reseller. You and Roger are so good together, and I love the videos.❤

[@lavenderclothesline]

Thanks so much Debbie! Do you ever watch on Wednesday?

[@debbielafoy1052]

Yes, I watch on Wednesday too! I’m a retired nurse, so I look forward to Wednesdays and Sundays for my favorite resellers❤

[@atomicredhead]

Very proud of you for going down the glass isle. If you took a 395 uv black light and shine it on clear glass, the manganese in it will glow green. It will be older glassware. They used manganese to actually make the glass more clear. But it's collectable. It may make the glass isle more fun. LOL

[@shannonmorrison457]

Thanks for this tip! I just added some to my Amazon cart:)

[@karenkuhr5698]

That was such a good idea. I actually yawn when resellers poke around in clear glass

[@atomicredhead]

@@karenkuhr5698 you'd be surprised at how much green glow you'll find. Lol

[@karenkuhr5698]

@@atomicredhead that's what I meant

[@peppiholliday4525]

I think you meant uranium that will glow green? But also manganese does glow blue

[@sandralouise9306]

So fun Karen and funny too..."does Salt Lake City have lions running around?", "an owl candle, I guess you just light him and let his head burn", "a fish..pretty stinky", love the narrations... had lots of chuckles along the way! :) :)

[@cateyes3629]

Love that wood piece that says BASKETS!!! It's older. I'm jealous, Karen!!

[@cyndimanka]

I’m a treasure hunter too. It goes way back to even my childhood. My friends and I are you still hop on bikes and go down alleys and pick through peoples garbage. Then I used to go through these jerk stores when I was a teenager and find treasure one time when I was a kid probably around 10 I was going through someone’s garbage and found an evening in Paris perfume kit. It had bottles in it and everything I took it home, and my mom could not believe I had found it.

[@Grace2010H]

Great score with the Frontgate napkin holder. 🎉

[@deirdrecurran1780]

I am always amazed on how you pick pieces up like the whimsical cat with no idea of the value and it turns out it is worth quite a bit. What a great eye you have for quality pieces. Well done you,😊

[@shannon_w.]

Those nesting eggs should be from West Germany. I have quite a few of them. I always look on the bottom shelf because most peoole won't bend down and dig so one time I found a bag full of vintage taper candles for $2.99 and in that bag was 3 Lucite Candles!!!!

[@corneliaampunan3682]

We had them, when we were kids. One for each. They did indeed come from West Germany. Every Easter, our mother would fill them with Easter goodies nestled in green grass(paper).

[@lizlagle671]

"This is a good rabbit." Somedays you really crack me up. You are talented, look how many people you entertain.

[@nonnistreasurehouse3666]

Hey Karen another Karen here and we’re the same vintage age 😉. So when you say is it worth bending down I know what you mean. Praying it’s worth it, knowing getting up has a price. 😂❤

[@kellyk5513]

I love that wooden basket tray. Great finds! I love your goodwills! You find the best things

[@luimatthews5624]

Talk about well seasoned, I was 20 in the 70's. I couldn't begin to look on the bottom shelf. I really admire your energy and determination, Karen.

[@ThisBetterBeGood]

Frontgate is a luxury catalog/online store. I used to buy quite a few things from them when I was a personal assistant.

[@4itGrow]

As a reseller myself I could do a shopping marathon with you. Oh, the fun we would have.

[@maryoconnell3857]

I shouldn't be surprised that you find a cat that is worth $60!!! You have a great eye. Hope you and your hubby are doing well!

[@ruthfitzwater-cn3vc]

Love the wood tray with “baskets” on it. The blue/green Murano glass is beautiful. I’m rather new to your channel. Did you and Roger meet while thrifting? Depending on how badly the magnolia painting is damaged, don’t discount repairing it with some matching markers if it’s for you. One of my favorite paintings in my home is a beautiful covered bridge scene. There were a few small places where the paint was gone. A really cheap price and the subject matter made me take a chance. I matched the colors with some markers and no one has ever noticed my repairs! I enjoy it every day.

[@Meekavintage]

YES they met fairly recently reselling, couple years ago..they have done videos talking about it if you would like to watch them ...they are just the cutest couple

[@ruthfitzwater-cn3vc]

Thanks meekavintage

[@JamieCote-yy7nh]

You really found some beautiful items Karen. Roger really has a wonderful eye for items that you love to sell and you know what he loves as well.

[@marybailes2361]

I love how you talk to yourself and answer yourself! We don’t want that! What in the world is this? Ah, little glass dog. We got some birds back there and these house things, they don’t do well for me, I’m gonna think about that, do I want a bag of beads……you crack me up, so entertaining.

I had to look up that napkin holder. Nice find! Luciana Napkin Holder Mixed materials make each piece of the Luciana Kitchen Classics collection both modern and timeless. A Frontgate proprietary design, the Luciana Napkin Holder has a smooth bar to keep paper napkins in place, while marble, brass, and teakwood accents bring an element of style. A Frontgate exclusive Marble with teak, brass and powdercoated cast aluminum Must-have for the modern kitchen

Haha. I hope Roger likes his toy cars. I really like Mirano glass piece that.Roger found for you. It's different, a very pretty shape that I have never seen before.

Those bird coasters were adorable

[@vickiehanan5686]

My favorite was the crystal with metal cherubs in the middle . You said you don't have talent . I disagree. It takes talent to take us shopping and you have a great eye for finding the good stuff !! That's your talent . Even though I'm a small reseller, I know I have talent too and get so excited when I find something good or even rare . It's the thrill of the hunt that keeps me going back for more !!

[@donnae2445]

I believe the glass sculpture is made in china, I sold one exactly like it with the China sticker on it however when researching I found others being sold as Murano with the sticker removed

[@michelleraney3577]

They are now making fake Murano stickers they are putting on fake glass pieces.

[@keryljensen978]

I have one like it & mine has a small Murano sticker on the base.

[@catilyeverafter316]

Agree, that glass piece is a fake. If you compare it to real murano love knot pieces, the end is not as long or elegant and the entire piece is not as tall. I’d look VERY closely at the sticker and make sure the writing doesn’t read “Murano Style.”

I so enjoy and learn alot from your videos. I would love to go shopping with you. Regarding the spoon from Guatemala, I would assume a family brought some items over as they emigrated to America. I have many friends from South America. Too bad about that beauitiful painting at the beginning of your video. It reminded me of my friend's moving song (Meet Me Under the Magnolia tree).

[@nancyfair5607]

Just when I thought I had seen everything you have in your cart ,then I see the black kitchen spice cabinet with drawers and the metal candlemold. I didnt see those listed in your ebay store, did you put them in your booth. I would have had so much fun in that store today. You picked up alot of items that I collect. So much fun

[@shibby1965]

I have only found one yearbook but it was definitely very special. Unfortunately the Senior class lost a class mate to a car accident. Inside the yearbook there were a couple newspaper articles about this young lady's accident that someone had folded and put inside. The Yearbook was dedicated to her as well. It was sad but then again I hope the yearbook brought back special memories to the buyer of a special friend. Thought I would share. Love to all and thanks Karen for all the help you have given me. ❤

[@breathofhome6315]

Amazing finds! ...and really good prices. Here they way over price items, especially for the condition they're in. I wish they'd consider us resellers as part of a cooperative instead of as competition. Great stuff, fun to watch... thanks Karen!!
