Thrifting at New York GOODWILL / bargain hunting

[@glennbiss5588]

Loved your thrift with me video! Your goodwill puts ours to shame! Do you ever run into any uranium glass at these? Can’t wait to see what you picked up?

[@melaniethompson6353]

I look but I have never seen it except for once a few years ago 😕 You’ll be the second to know if I do😊

[@ririlovesautumn]

I love vintage decor, it's so charming.

[@melaniethompson6353]

It has a story to tell 🌻

[@theresaohman7187]

The Nurseflipper, The Nitch lady or crazy lamp lady might know about crystal. They have great channels on KZbin.

[@melaniethompson6353]

Thanks for the tip, I’m only familiar with one of those channels 🌻

[@dorisleary7231]

I love thrifting also; you never know what kind of treasures you will find. I love my cookie press I use it to make spritz cookies. Yum! It was fun shopping with you.

[@melaniethompson6353]

Thanks Doris! I haven’t had a spritz cookie in years! 😋

[@buffalocheckchicks7837]

The wheat cannister so pretty!❤

[@melaniethompson6353]

Love the Christmas plates at Goodwill. Great prices. Thanks for the tour.

[@melaniethompson6353]

They were adorable

[@dorothylehman4164]

Take those wooden Hoops embroidery hoops and wrap them with white yarn or rope put beads on them and put flowers make a wreath out of them they're really pretty you can even wrap it with ribbon if you wanted to and then put flowers on the bottom part half and then hang something in the middle up from the top and it be a beautiful wreath

[@melaniethompson6353]

That would be beautiful, thank you for the suggestion 🌻🐑

[@theresaohman7187]

The corningware with the blue flowers go for a good price.

[@barbkenas5663]

Great shopping trip, so many fun items! Will we get to see what you bought?

[@melaniethompson6353]

Lol! You will be surprised. I’ll include that in my next video.

[@buffalocheckchicks7837]

Love the bright yellow bowl!❤

[@melaniethompson6353]

Perfect for summer

[@buffalocheckchicks7837]

Thanks for the shopping trip!❤❤❤ it was fun!❤

[@melaniethompson6353]

Your very welcome 🤗

[@donnaendres3235]

This was a wonderful place to thrift, so many treasures. I saw many things that I collected in the 80’s & 90’s, like the cherubs. I’m always on the lookout for vintage items when thrifting. Thanks for inviting us along, it was a good start to my day. Maybe I’ll go thrifting!!!

[@melaniethompson6353]

Thanks Donna! Did you have a chance to go thrifting over the weekend? I hope you scored😁

[@donnaendres3235]

@@melaniethompson6353 Yes I did! I found a vintage bachelor ironing board that has 3 functions. An ironing board, step stool and chair & a baby powder tin for an antique baby scale I found on another hunt. It definitely made me happy. Thanks for asking!!!

[@melaniethompson6353]

Oh those sound fantastic! Do you collect a lot of antiques? Do you have a favorite? My uncle was a antique collector and seller and I also had a cousin that had a antique shop…… I really wish I had more interest when I was younger, then I’d have more knowledge about certain items. But it’s never to late to learn 😊

[@donnaendres3235]

@@melaniethompson6353 Yes I love antiques/vintage. I’m always on the hunt. I’m so thankful my husband loves to hunt with me. If only I would have held on to what I collected back in the 80’s but I needed a change which was Tuscan, only to fall back in love the last few years. I’m constantly shuffling things around to make room for new but eventually there will be no more room. I really don’t have a favorite but I do have a list of certain things I really want. Lol I’d much rather have old than new.

[@melaniethompson6353]

Lol, we are so much alike! My taste is always changing. I feel like a lot of times I decorate to fit my mood. I also have regrets on getting rid of a few pieces. Back when I was younger those pieces didn’t seem as important….boy was I wrong. My husband says I’m running out of room in our basement to store stuff 😆so I’m always trying to organize it to make more room. 🤣😂 🥂cheers to crossing items off of your wish list 😘

[@MeditationParadiseLand]

I like thrifting at Goodwill, you can find some really cool stuff ❤️🌺

[@melaniethompson6353]

Absolutely 👍

[@annedegn1015]

I had and went to a lot of home interior parties. I still have a lot of their Decour.

[@melaniethompson6353]

It’s timeless decor💕

[@dorothylehman4164]

That's pool with that that thing with the thread on it it would sit on a base when you would leave your lace or your yarn and it would go around and around so that you could use the yarn off of it

[@melaniethompson6353]

Hi Dorothy🙋‍♀️thank you for the information ❤️

[@GrandmaSandy]

Hi my sweet friend thanks so much for another great video full of inspiration

[@melaniethompson6353]

Thanks Sandy

[@theresaohman7187]

I grew up watching my Mom use that cookie press so it's got to be old. I am going to be 62 soon. My partner tried the apple pealer thing and went back to hand peeling, he didn't like it at all.

[@melaniethompson6353]

It always amazes me when I come across a vintage item like that at Goodwill and the box is still in tact. I will stick to using my hands for peeling apples too. Have a great day 😊🌻

[@buffalocheckchicks7837]

Cute cannisters!❤

[@melaniethompson6353]

Adorable 🥰

[@buffalocheckchicks7837]

Your goodwill’s are so much better than ours here. There was a lot of nice things.

[@melaniethompson6353]

maybe you will have some luck here when you come for a visit🤞

[@theresaohman7187]

A person might wrap wool around it after they've made the wool yarn?

[@melaniethompson6353]

I never thought of that. Thanks 😊

[@louisesnell6677]

[@melaniethompson6353]
