Let's MIX and MATCH The Dishes | Goodwill Thrift With Me | Reselling

[@ravenhunter2077]

Have you thought about pricing some of the items in the Airbnb so people can take home a souvenir from you? That way you can keep shopping for the home as well.

[@ileneahrens8741]

As a person who stays in Air B & B's, NO to selling stuff in the unit. You want to feel you are walking like you are home and on vacation, not in a store.

[@mandyloder2087]

When I worked in an air b&b we would always have fresh cookies for them individually wrapped and bottled water. It makes it really welcoming.

[@erin6735]

Jocelyn I have been following you from the beginning! I just wanted to say congrats to your Airbnb home project. Plus just remember as a person that watches you, you are not just the lamp lady. You are a dynamite person to watch that keep your viewers entertained. I have watched several people and you are tge one that I watch all the videos except coffee chat! Lol keep the great job up! You are wonderful. Plus when my day is not filled with sunshine...I just wait for you to post another video and it brightens up very quickly. Don't put yourself down. You have your own business Plus you has 3 children plus you have a selling platform that you created and now an airbnb project! You are a wonder woman in my books. Take care and blessings to you always a fan from toronto!

[@tonidorazio]

Same here, Jocelyn, You are the queen of everything no one can keep up with you they can only copy and try, lol

[@TeeGreen222]

I NEVER skip the nightly video! I enjoy spending time with you and I will enjoy watching your Airbnb become your latest success story ❤ your talent and creativity are unmatched.

[@gabbott944]

Im enjoying your new adventure! ❤ California Blessings

[@KristieGallion]

Erin, you hit the nail on the head. Jocelyn, you always brighten my day and I appreciate all you share with us. You are so creative and energetic that you need to branch out or make changes to keep from being bogged down. I am looking forward to seeing you create your air b and b, run your platforms, and share your knowledge with us.

[@stephaniequinn9431]

Can I suggest mix and match Corelle? It was made in tons of patterns but the same shape blank so everything goes together nicely. I mix vintage Corelle & even swap out seasonally. Durable, dishwasher & microwave safe & also a nice nod to your upstate NY roots ;-).

[@mariabryant6582]

I love vintage restaurant ware, but was wondering if it is microwave and dishwasher safe.

[@kerrybrooks4879]

Research lead in Corelle dishes from before 2005. I found out my Corelle dishes from 1993 were potential for leaching lead into food. Not worth the risk. Buh-bye.

[@crystalcaffrey9788]

I was going suggest this too, but I also like the idea of Corelle because they stack so well together, easy to find, Mix and match nicely and are durable. When my daughter got her home we went with Corelle dishes.

[@TeeGreen222]

That’s what I use in my own home. A stack of mismatched Corelle. Love it!

[@Cindy-WesternCanadian]

I love the idea of mix and match restaurant ware. You're going to have so much fun setting the place up!

[@eloisebates7827]

I love watching you thrift. Although I don''t resell, and really don't need anything new at my age, your knowledge and tutelage has given me the bug again, so I have recently been stopping at my local Salvation Army while walking back from my library. I always cruise the aisle more than once, and pick up what I think is any good and hang on to it to consider (and before someone else gets it). The other day I spied a biscuit jar from the wrong side of the shelf filled with loads of mundane clear glass, and reached through to snag it, a la Jocelyn. On inspection, it was dirty and goopy, but with no obvious chips or cracks, and clearly marked Waterford (for $5.99!!). When I got it home, Goof Off, my Scotty Peeler and warm soap and water confirmed that it was in perfect condition. I think it will get fairy lights and vintage ornaments in it for Christmas.

[@lisageilhausen1866]

You seem so much more engaged and upbeat since you bought the AirBNB and started working and shopping for it. Love the videos about your furniture put together, painting with Juliet and shopping for decor. I also like the navy blue living room rug, it’s very pretty.

[@penelopesparrow]

It's so fun to see you excited about the BnB project! Such a breath of fresh air for your creativity and of course a fine excuse to buy all the cute restaurant ware hehehe ❤

[@patsmith6616]

If you buy feista ware if a piece gets broke you can replace with the first color you find.

[@mandyloder2087]

I have been in the cleaning industry/ self employed for around 25 years. Be sure to get a great cleaner or it will kill your business.

[@CrazyLampLady]

I have a fantastic cleaning company who has been working with us for three years.

[@elizabethspiro3462]

Hope you do the same switch with the sofa.... get a heavy, real sofa you can have cleaned when your cleaning crew comes in after each visitor... Please think of that as a Restore buy, possibly!!!!

[@elizabethroblero6370]

I have been watching you for a very long time and I’m really glad to see that you have something new that is making you so HAPPY!!!!! keep up the good work. It’s gonna be fun watching you through this journey and watching you create this wonderful place where we can all come visit.

[@ritzyrare8205]

Love the idea of restaurant ware at the airbnb! The bird thing is called a bird bottle and it's a house for small birds to build nests in. You hang it on a flat surface like the side of your house, often up high like at the eaves.

[@cindyrodriguez1601]

Hey Jocelyn what about getting the coffee you sell now made into smaller packaging for your welcome package for the airbnb, then in your information book you leave for the guest, you could include the link to buy the coffee if they like it?? Could boost your coffee sales some? =MountainMomma

[@reneandrews4659]

How about Pfaltzgraff dishes so you can show once and for all that you don’t hate them😂

[@amplified506]

A few years ago we got rid of our nice but really heavy Pfaltzgraff dish set in favor of mixing and matching vintage Corelle plates and bowls. Love them! PS: LOVE restaurant ware ❤

[@stephaniequinn9431]

Just made a similar comment and then saw yours lol. I love restaurantware too but find the lighter Corelle way easier when I hurt my elbow.

[@amplified506]

@ my daughter and I have so much fun hunting for Corelle patterns we don’t already have and you can pick them up very cheap too. Perfect for a klutzy hubbie too 🤣

[@ms.krueger2660]

Just made a comment on corelle ware. My set is almost 40. Have 3 sons and have lost only two pieces. I also buy the odd pieces here and there. It lasts forever. ⭐️

[@amplified506]

@ my MIL has always used Corelle and I thought it was so strange since I grew up with china dishes but boy, was she right! They last forever and clean up so well. I think her set is from the early ‘70’s.

[@ms.krueger2660]

Corelle ware is the best. ⭐️ They last a long time. My set is going on 40. Went through three boys. Have only lost two pieces. Has tons of patterns. I have picked up pieces here and there and have at least 25 different patterns. Also they are the same size and will stack well. ⭐️⭐️ Will take up less space.

[@WhateverHappenedToHer0331]

And it’s great to find the Pyrex that matches it too. I remember my MIL had Lazy Daisy and Spring Blossom patterns.

[@kattymatty413]

YESSSS THE RESTAURANT WARE! What a good use for those mix-matched pieces!! So happy you thought of it!

[@christinaspencer4160]

I love watching your videos and have been with you from the start …. Watching from Wales in the UK x Please keep faith in yourself you are an inspiration xxx

[@bevcollins6937]

I want to come stay in your new place... me and my daughter. Can,t wait to see the finish. ❤❤ what your doing with your life. I have watched you from your start on You Tube...you have grown in value Jocelyn...keep it up.

[@reneeflanagan2773]

Fiesta ware in different colors would look great. People can set the table with plates, saucers and cups in different colors for each place setting or coordinated for each place settling!

[@kimeverhart6253]

Jocelyn, I think your idea of vintage restaurant ware dishes for your Airbnb is such a great one!! While you were picking it up and admiring it, i said it to myself,oh, that is so pretty and sturdy and vintage and could be mixed and matched…and then you pretty much said the same thing!! Hah! I hope that the dishes work out for you!! I love your sweet little place!! What a fun project! 🥰

[@kingsdaughter3138]

I was thinking restaurant ware (Syracuse, ChenangoShenango, Hall etc) and then you came up with that too! There are some really pretty patterns out there, and the colors are easy to mix. Have fun!

[@Gussy818]

I mix and match vintage stoneware plates they're beautiful especially the ones with the bright flowers

[@susanclark8654]

its so good to see you excited again :). Can't wait to see what you do to the house!!!

[@jackysjournals6320]

You should put discrete prices on some of your quirky pieces in your air b&b. People will buy as a memento of their stay? 😊

[@teresagarcia437]

Jocelyn you are so calm when thrifting. My mind would be in “don’t bother me” mode, and my head stuck between the shelves digging thru all the stuff. 😅 Love your videos 😊

[@carolyndalfonso1221]

I have been using Mainstays white china from Walmart for 9 years and just add colorful/seasonal dessert plates. Affordable and always looks good.

[@brendabatt6874]

I like the idea of mix and match restaurant ware. I use it for my everyday dishes and they are so sturdy.

[@theeclecticthriftercrafter]

Hello!!!! Happy lumpety-bump day! Have a great rest of the week evryone!!!!

[@marggyreppeto-pi6re]

You too!

[@christinacordero4624]

I thrifted restaurant ware for my house and I love it. The thinner plates were chipping so much. 😊

[@maureenhouse9858]

It is so much work decorating a whole house. Never got the hang of it until House 3. I am traditional with milk glass, copper, crystal, drop leaf tables & old chest of drawers from my Mama. My grandmother’s coffee table & I just purchased a pie crust table. I buy what I like. I am sure you will do the same. I also love cats!!!!

[@korean_foot_traveler8655]

It's really amazing. I enjoyed getting a chance to see it indirectly through the video.❤

[@firecracker8071]

I would give ANYTHING to have a store like the ones you go to

[@nancychannel8513]

I absolutely love restaurantware

[@cathifamjourney469]

I really like the mixed restaurant wear idea! Cool patterns are heftier and less likely to break.

[@missyb.623]

We use restaurant ware as our everyday dishes. I love it!

[@sallygibney-ge7cd]

I went to a restaurant in King of Prussia yesterday called Founding Farmers. I was stunned at their dishes and how unusually attractive they were. I don’t know the pattern but they were from Villeroy and Bach. Very colorful and with reds, yellow, green, etc. flowers. Subtle and classy. Ive never 😅seen restaurant dishes like that before. Loved them. They would make a wonderful addition to your Air B&B.

[@peggyhawkins9748]

Jocelyn, I love watching uour videos. You educate us thrift store novices on what to look for that has value. A couple of weeks ago, i went one of pur local thrift stores. The first thing i noticed was a squate plate. When i turned it over it said hand painted in Italy by Bellini. My first good score. Next I noticed this teapot that jad a cool shape. I passed it up but it kept calling me. I went back, got it, and looked it up. My second bog score. Its a mid century Franciscan piece that is no longer in production. The following week i went to a different thrift store. The first thing i saw was a. Angel. I collect them. I looked at it and it was hand painted, signed by the artist, Fenton glass Angel bell. My biggest score! Thank for your tips! Good luck woth your BNB!

[@tassie2348]

I have a mix and match dinner set. I love setting the table with mixed bone china tea cups etc. It's such an eclectic way of serving meals!!!

[@tammywasko5531]

I do the same thing with my plates but I do all white. I know - kinda boring. But if some break, I just go thrift white ones and they always work well together!

[@natalie1074]

You need to have a note book,of somewhat for people to say they stayed at the airb&b ( where there from, who they enjoyed their stay!) You m8ght have some middle eastern lantern on the back porch area!!!

[@barnesfamily1128]

Love the owl themed birdhouse. Have fun shopping for the air b&b. Don't forget about little kids, maybe get some plastic or melamine for them. Can't wait to see what the place looks like when done.❤

[@bridgethaig8923]

Okay and thinking about putting restaurant ware into your Airbnb, most people that will be staying there will probably be using the dishwasher where the plates would get damaged from not being hand washed. Maybe some nice dishes from Target. Good luck with this project. Oh and did you notice the little nutmeg grater when you picked up the lavender vase.

[@elizabethspiro3462]

great idea, restaurant wear! love it and you are doing such a great job with this new project... expanding yourself and your talents... applying all you have learned to a new, different area of your talents!!!! You go girl!!!!

[@lottieward6007]

Salt cellar and certain napkin rings are good bases for spherical orbs or stones.

[@margethibeault6950]

Great idea!

[@reneeflanagan2773]

Candle holders for the small tea lights work well for orbs or stone eggs too.

[@marciadynes7628]

In the early eighties our restaurant put the restaurant wear in the dishwasher and microwave but we did buy all new dishes when we updated the kitchen should be able to find out online if microwave safe most can be put in dishwasher! Happy shopping !

[@kristiwilliams9626]

I like the idea of the restaurant ware. My parents owned a restaurant supply store years ago, so some of it is familiar. Remember when you are decorating the AirBnB not everyone likes birds.

[@ileneahrens8741]

So true about the birds. That would be a huge turn-off for me. Go very non-descript/neutral with your decor.

[@suewarnes9469]

Great idea to mix n match! 🤗🫶🏻

[@FaraLove-77]

I love and collect restaurant ware. I use it everyday. It also doesn’t fade in the dishwasher. *But consider the weight in your cabinets! lol.

[@SusanDavis-y2s]

I have always picked up monogrammed and engraved China and silver pieces to use. They are so elegant. I’m from the south😊

[@tanithmessenger3581]

Mix 'n' Match is a great idea! The gorgeous bird plate is a Bee Eater, we get them here on the island of Cyprus, such beautiful birds.

[@AC-qi9wo]

"Christmas Tme " by Noritake, is the other brand that is worth money, that's my Christmas dinnerware, most people, overlook it looking for Spode so I have almost completed my set. Was a Christmas present in 1996 from my mother in law. 😊

[@WhateverHappenedToHer0331]

Restaurant ware is really sturdy. And fairly easy to find if you need replacements. I used to go to an ABB that had white Fiestaware dishes. Also classic and really sturdy.

[@darcybaker7545]

I LOVE your new project!!!!

[@janrossetti3571]

Great choice for mix and match restaurant ware dinner service. 😄 I have chosen a theme of my mismatched plates , soft blues and flowers and it does look pretty in the dresser.

[@lynntankersley6134]

Get a sign in book so that visits can tell you how wonderful their experience is😊

[@IvonneClement]

Yes for restaurant ware, love it.

[@janrossetti3571]

Loved the Sherwood made bowl with bird and the Seasons greeting sign will look lovely in your home.

[@tammyoconnor5620]

I’ve had Buffalo china for a long while and love it

[@gayepepper8645]

You’ve just taught me what a ceramic bird nester is!!

[@dianehermann3342]

Hi Jocelyn 🦋🦃 yes I’m with you on the restaurant ware easier to replace pieces 🦃

[@lns8376]

I also mix and match Corelle, Christmas,fall and plain. Have 2 platters. 👍👍👏

[@donnae2445]

Just what you need another comment about the dishes, but you might want to think about the chipping, the breaking the gold whether or not it can go in the dishwasher so my big suggestion is corell, mix and match Corel because it won’t break as much you can have any pattern or variety that you want and anytime you need more it’s readily available and they all stack together and fit in the cabinets. Nobody is gonna have a hard time lifting them.including kids & elderly

[@angelinahernandez9205]

Great finds Jocelyn 👍♥️

[@RachelBalsamo]

Add the bird plate to your plate wall!

[@Peggie7Kids]

When our kids were little, I collected different kitchen dishes. The only requirement was that it have fruit on it somewhere. Made it so easy when dishes were broken,

[@Vickispillman]

I love mix and match I've been doing it for years .

[@blueburytreasurelaurabrown8482]

I use a heavy crystal ashtray next to my bed to put my jewelry in at night. It looks really pretty with the jewelry, it adds some style to my nightstand.

[@charlenegirouard901]

I really like that owl birdhouse fun find

[@micheledelnigro9259]

That glass pitcher is stunning for oj on breakfast buffet

[@debbykeith4846]

Oh, my goodness, those prices at that goodwill are amazing. That little trinket box for 99 cents would be at least $5.99 or even $10 at our local store. The prices are so ridiculous. I only shop on the cheapest mark down color day. Love watching you. I'm really looking forward to the airbnb series.

[@librarianleesa]

Restaurant ware is a great idea!

[@conniebearer1]

There’s a big set of friendly village dinnerware at founders crossing in Bedford. Been there a long while and you may have seen it.

[@lindas.1145]

That would be nice for the holidays. I use mine for Thanksgiving and Christmas.🎄

[@cherylradabaugh2720]

Those two matching glass lights at 8:25 would look good on shelf

[@christyvanvarick2254]

The pottery that looks like a bird feeder is actually a bird house. You add a stick for a perch

[@Fakephoto]

Remember you aren't buying those dishes for resale. If the are monogrammed or the edge gold is worn,it doesn't matter

[@A_New_View]

I’m excited to watch the Airbnb transformation

[@carissapatron8413]

Mix and match Corelle.

[@angelarobertson9521]

Can I suggest a couple light weight plates cups (like the bamboo that's popular now) for disabled people and kids of course.

[@lindas.1145]

Our town doesn’t allow short term rentals. Make sure it’s allowed there. You might consider pulling your old baseboards and installing a nicer trim.

[@CrazyLampLady]

Yes. It is allowed. 😊

[@susanlandis2882]

Hi Jocelyn ❤ I love looking at dinnerware. I just bought a stack of vintage black transfer ware plates that were made exclusively for an estate in Nantucket. I can’t stop looking at them and handling them🙄

[@joantrainor6584]

I have had very good luck with Fraternity dishes.

[@vintiqueraven6437]

Can older restaurants dishes go in the microwave? Might be something to check.

[@darcybaker7545]

11:40 I’m guessing you were looking at the little Shirley vases by Material Good. I don’t know if they were all over the place, but here in Seattle they came out around the same time as Glassybaby. The two look great together, so a lot of us collected both. Now, most colors sell for $50…they are always marked. :-))

[@kerrybrooks4879]

Research lead risk wirh Corelle plates from before 2005. I found out that my Corelle dishes from 1993 were a risk for leaching lead into food. Has to do with a glaze used to protect the decoration that contains lead. Long term use (like for 30 years!) and heat (microwave) increases the chance of lead leaching into food. Corelle suggested only using these plates as "decorative."

[@kerrybrooks4879]

Did not donate mine to Goodwill! I just got rid of them. Again, not worth the risk to me or others.

[@margethibeault6950]

I cringe when I see corelle..My 1st set of dishes was the butterfly pattern and I destroyed them when that lead warning came out. I don't know of a way to tell the year so I avoid all of it.

[@KatRN1000]

Amber some chickens at the AirBNB? Fresh eggs and they’re fun

[@CherlyGearhart]

I decided to mix and match my dish set this summer !!! Vintage and Dollar store !!! 😂❤

[@tamierenner4168]

Make sure that your restaurant ware is microwave safe. I used it years ago when I was married and what I used wasn't microwaveable. I loved using mine.

[@heathertenbroeck6455]

At 3:41 - did anyone else hear “that’s a sparkly a$$ tray!” 😂 just me? 😆

[@susieharman2539]

🥦🟦raised 3 kids on mixed restaurant ware, still collecting. Retirement project includes a cafe.

[@sehlpup1262]

Are you getting a dish for the guests' trinkets on the nightstands, or is that something that might be taken?

[@LindaBarham]

As a person who frequents Airbnb I want to give my opinion. I don't think I'd like mismatched plates. I think it would be better if you bought one more set with extra pictures

[@leannearthur292]

Love the restaurant ware idea

[@robinsnestresale]

I want to buy the bird with the Nest bowl. Nice trademark for me!

[@carlitoshoued7400]

There's the yellow taco truck. Third time I've seen it on a thrifting video.

[@CrazyLampLady]

Next time I’ll have to grab it! 😂

[@GenXLisa]

I love restaurant ware!!❤

[@Molli88Tito]

But what was the blue and white cat maybe?? Next to the gravy boats????

[@annietipton8392]

I know you don't fool with Fiestaware often, but that stuff is hardy! I collect it and I have literally dropped a plate on a cement floor and it BOUNCED! Not one chip!

[@JanHastings-ns7ze]

Good morning. What you thought was a bird feed is a bird house. Great video.
