Those beautiful glass pieces make great gifts. I buy all of them i can throughout the year, then at Christmas time i fill them with Christmas candy, cookies, nuts & fruits, then i give them away to my mail lady, teachers...along with just random people. Plus when i go to Christmas parties, I put whatever i make to take in a beautiful vintage dish and leave it for the host. I also find everything i can about the dish, print it out and attach it to the dish so the person will know the history of it. ❤ If i go to a company party, i always take cookies or candy. I write a note saying "whoever ate the last piece of candy, gets to take my beautiful dish home", then i tape it to the bottom of the dish, and place a piece of candy on top. 🎉

The umbrella is for your golf clubs in the bag to keep them dry. It has a long handle to secure it all the way along the bag, as the bag will give it more support. The orange lid had a handle that was the same metal as the pot.

Hi Karen-I LOVE your videos! Watched for the first time this week. As a lifelong antiques lover, I l am retired and live in a small town in VA and volunteer in my church thrift shop, St.Peter's in Oak Grove VA. We do about $1500 each time we are open (3 hrs on Wed. & Sat.) I manage the eBay sales also. You and Roger are inspiring me to try to sell more items for our shop. We price things cheaply in the store because of the demographic of our area. Thanks for being you! CW

[@joannecraft-lane8660]

I love, love, love those brass candleabra style candle holders! The frosted glass angle candle holders were by L.E. Smith, mid century. The sleepy dolls used to be a prize from the church carnivals in the early to mid 1960s.

Hey, Karen! I have been watching you since 2019. You are such a wonderful person. I'm so grateful you choose to share with us all your hard-earned knowledge. The hard goods are so fun to watch. So I'd never want to lose those haha. But I myself have to focus most of my efforts on reselling clothing, as I don't have much room to store items at my house. Therefore I do really appreciate learning about what to watch for clothing-wise. Either way, I'm just happy to join you on your reselling journeys. Thanks for inviting us to watch!

Those red pottery urns with lids from Italy were gorgeous and worth several hundred dollars. The cracked lid on one wouldn't have been a deal breaker as most people would use them for display and hide the repair. It's hard to know what to get, though. I'm a reseller myself and have my own regrets...lol

Same here! I'm in Socal & lucky to be surrounded by estate sales every weekend. Don't even bother w/thrifts.

Same in NoCal. Really outlandish prices. I think if the west coast succeeds with their online listings that they will start doing the same throughout the rest of the country. But I keep hoping our Goodwills will have some sort of backlash.

[@cheryldavis8776]

​@@LJack-ck8uh Sounds mean to say, but I am inclined to agree with you! They are waaay too greedy for their own good... I mean they get ALL of their inventory for FREE! BUT now they want to get full value like eBay does. It's really absurd. I really hope they price themselves out of the market and suffer for lack of customers and sales... they need to realize that they're NOT the only game in town! Great bargains and excellent thrifting experiences can always be found at yard sales, estate sales, and flea markets. I've no empsthy in my heart for the likes of Goodwill Industries.

[@LindaKayHolevas]

Same here in Portland, Oregon. It’s a pretty sad day when I have to say I can’t afford to shop at Goodwill anymore. I am hoping people start boycotting them & maybe they’ll get the hint. (Sadly, I know that will never happen).

Hey Karen, I am watching some of your older videos and saw where you thought the orange lid didn't actually go with the griswald cast aluminum roasting pan. However, the orange lid does in fact belong with the pot. It is definitely supposed to be the lid for that pot. You've probably already got this info, but just in case, here it is. Enjoy your shopping. I don't know how you do it.

It started me wondering what happened to that hamper? Great Memories! I know I prefer hard goods as it covers a vast amount of items.
