    I’ve told you before how horrific the thrift stores are in the Philadelphia suburbs. We would probably be thrilled to see some iris and herringbone. Thanks for taking us along shopping it’s always fun😊

    I was watching the Today Show, and for this summer Amazon is putting out plastic 60s glass sets. How interesting, Mr. Glass, you are so popular. The glasses don't look like the old stuff, but the ideas are back. Maybe that Iris glassware is in the backroom ten feet high, stalked in a dusty corner. Let's get another cup of coffee and another piece of pie.🐝🐢🐰🐰💜💚💛🧡❤😻🐝🐢🐰💜💚💛🧡❤😻🐝🐢🐰💜💚💛🧡❤😻🐝🐢🐰💜💚💛🧡❤😻🐝🐢🐰💜💚💛🧡❤😻🐝🐢🐰💜💚💛🧡❤😻🐝🐢🐰💜💚💛🧡❤😻🐝🐢🐰💜💚💛🧡❤😻🐝🐢🐰💜💚💛🧡❤😻🐝🐢🐰💜💚💛🧡❤😻

    That Jeanette harp pattern (1954-57) tray reminded me of all the harp design cake stands that you would see a few years back. Like the harp coasters and bud vases, these were all boxed sets for gift giving. No one ever baked me a jam cake with caramel icing and presented it to me on a cake stand. I think that all of my birthday cakes were served on paper plates with plastic forks. LOL.

    You know that cork lined carafe lid did not belong with that sugar bowl. The pink cake plate has a rare US Glass Co. monogram mark. The hand painted vase is Fenton's #192 5" vase in Peach Crest with Charleton decoration by Abels Wasserburg C0., about 1959 to about 1971, and a real score! That ruby stained King's Crown pitcher was well over 100 years old, I hope you got it. The wicker desk is perfect for your porch and a steal of a deal, congratulations. All in all a good shopping trip, thanks for taking us along.

    I so agree with you! I love clear pressed and cut glass. It’s so classy and elegant, goes with everything and the different patterned pieces blend so easily and beautifully on the table. I have so many books and researching to find the pattern is so fun. Now, I’m the weirdo who has to have it in pristine condition but so rewarding to find the pattern and date, then use it wondering what the original owner was like. Where did they live? Do? Look like? I love the history and the story behind things fascinates me. To use something and appreciate it for that history and age. Absolutely loved this video today. I cannot wait to see your porch all set up this summer. I’m always amazed at the things you find in your neck of the woods.

    I wish they still made furniture like they used to. I really don't like modern furniture at all unless it's Amish made. I found the best furniture at a local antique store. A few years ago, I bought a beautiful 1920s full size bed. It's really gorgeous with a carved design and hand painted flower sprays. I don't remember exactly what I paid for it, but it was under $200. You can't even touch a modern bed for that. I bought a lot of my furniture at that store. I wish you could see the little side table and coffee table set I bought. They have beautiful carvings on the legs and sides and lovely inlaid wood. Would you believe that someone had painted them all white? What a travesty! The antique store owner restores old furniture and he brought these lovely pieces back to their original glory and I snapped them up as soon as he put them on the floor. I love seeing the pieces you buy. Top quality. They remind me so much of my grandmother's comfy, cozy home.

    That mini trunk at 7:45 was nice. Probably would look good on an office desk containing paper clips, push pins or something like that. That Hazel Atlas jar at 10:00 would look great with a floral arrangement in it. The standout of this thrift haul was definitely the Fenton milk glass pieces -- just beautiful works of art! As for those tea cups at 21:25, were they Royal Daulton? Lastly, I couldn't let this post go by without mentioning that awesome writing desk at the end of the video. My sister had one similar to that style in her room when we were kids.
