I had a lady at the bins digging through my cart. I told her to get out of my cart and give me back the things she took. She said that as long as it isn't paid for it is free reign. OK. So I started taking things out of her cart. Of course, she got mad and so I put her stuff back, took my stuff out and told her to keep her hands out of other people's carts. She grumbled and walked away. Someone had gone and got the security guard and he removed her from the store!

Keep your head up and your smile on, that right there, will bother that “TroLL” more than anything, because what they said was meant to hurt you. Do not let it….We love you, Margarette!!!

I have an andriod. I use google lens to identify many of my objects. You take a photo of the item then tap your google lens icon and it matches your image with images that are the same or similar.. But sometimes my google lens brings up images that dont match. . For the most part its a great tool to help identify your item. Its so helpful i have more sells now.

I just really feel for you about this issue because I’m a very sensitive person and I think you’re handling it beautifully and I admire and respect how you ask for friends to help you through it that is inspiring to me and I just wanted to let you know that the kind and self compassionate way you faced your trials have been an inspiration to someone else. I have always wanted to start a KZbin channel, but I don’t know that I can handle the mean comments.

I have a suggestion for you that might be helpful. I am also a homeschooling mother, actually retired my kids are all in their twenties now. But I am the lady whose twenty-seven-year-old daughter's name is Margaret. And my son is the one I used to sing You Are My Sunshine and later bought him a medallion that he hangs his car with the words on it. I know you talked to a lot of people so you might not remember me but I remember you, at least I think it was you saying that trinket boxes aren't selling as well anymore but I was thinking about doing this myself so I'm password the alarm to you because I enjoy your videos. When you get the book Lots with broken jewelry or jewelry that has pieces that are broken other pieces that are usable think about like the beads or the things will work good for earrings or if you have a bigger trinket box even bracelets and necklaces. Basically take the beads clip them off of the wires or whatever is holding them on and put them in the box with some earring findings or bracelet and necklace findings if it is a bigger box and sell them as vintage jewelry making kits. Just make sure you let them know that the kid is not vintage but the pieces, the components the beads are along with new findings. If you are having a hard time selling trinket boxes this would probably help because you're already going to have the miscellaneous beads from broken pieces some of those beautiful beads I have worked with have been beans off of other pieces of jewelry that I've taken apart
