- Join me for a two-family estate cleanout in New Britain, Connecticut! I'll show you the house, some of my favorite finds, and explain what we plan to do with the contents. All of my furry friends will make an appearance, so be warned in advance!
I’m so glad we got a Licorice break! It just wouldn’t be one of your videos without Licorices tap dancing.
Haha! I'm so glad it doesn't bother you too much. There's not much I can do except put her away in another room and then she would bark nonstop!
Iris and Wilson…adorable! Thanks for including that photo in this video. ♥️
I honestly thought I was hallucinating when I saw them - it was adorable and so unexpected! 💕💕
The finished brickwork is beautiful!
You're so kind! I'll tell Eric that you said so, he'll really appreciate the compliment!
Hi Kris, Before bringing furniture to the dump, which would be sad to me too, put it out on the curb with a big Ole sign saying FREE. Someone will nab it.
So enjoyable watching your channel, I always learn something new!!
Deb
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
If it had been possible I would have jumped at the chance to pick up that buffet it is LOVELY! Thanks for showing the entire process, I am subscribed now 😊!
I'm so glad! I couldn't believe the low prices on some of the furniture. There were excellent bargains to be had, for sure.
The metallic wallpaper was very popular in the early 80’s! I used to hang wallpaper & omg I do not miss hanging metallic paper. 😭
It's definitely a lot of look! 😂😂
Wow, you two are very busy! ❤
It's true, but what's the saying? If you love what you do, you never work a day in your life. That's the goal, anyway!
ERIC IS A WONDERFUL CRAFTSMAN.....THE SIDEWALK LOOKS REALLY BEAUTIFUL.....I LOVE BRICK WALKS AND PORCHES....THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US.....TAKE CARE!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! I'll pass along your compliments to Eric - I'm sure he'll really appreciate them!
Loved this video! So glad I found your channel!👍
I'm so glad you found it as well! Thank you so much for watching!
Truly another great video...great information.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
WOW, that looks like a lot of work.
Yes, for sure! I'm looking forward to decompressing after the next online auction. I plan to read a few books and enjoy the sunshine a little bit! Thank you so much for watching and leaving me a comment.
Interesting video. I loved the Flintridge china and wish you would have listed it on eBay. I have a set of Castleton china in a grey pattern. I’m still hoping to find a Flintridge set someday. I also love your animals they always make me happy when I see them.
It was a very beautiful set! I bet your set is gorgeous as well. You're so lucky to have it! My fur babies are definitely entertaining - I'm glad you enjoy them!
Purchased an item from your store, excited to get it!
I'm so glad! Thank you very much for your business!
Another great video! Such a lot of work to do these cleanouts. Along with the Yankee mentality (I’m like you - although I’m a Yankee one set of anything for a lifetime is not me!) is the fact that this lady lived through the depression. Those folks kept everything and didn’t waste anything.
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! You're so right - folks from generations ahead of us didn't waste things. It's a good lesson for us all, but probably won't stop me from having too many sets of china! 😂😂
Wow you both are great and organized. I love those prints in the dining room and the porcelain vanity items in the bedrooms. This looks so tiring. I’ve been wanting to get rid of so many items in my garage but I get so overwhelmed I never get to do it. Btw where do you sell on eBay? Can you add a link?
Thanks for the compliments! I haven't listed items from the estate sale on ebay yet, but I should get to it in a week or so. Here's the link: www.ebay.com/str/worthingtonhome
This was an interesting video. I didn’t realize how much work went into a clean out. Why do some people choose to do this instead of an Estate Sale?
It's definitely a lot of work, but worth it in the end. A lot of people don't want the trouble of an estate sale - strangers going through their house, advertising, pricing everything, selling, etc. And an estate sale is a ton of work unless you pay someone to do it, but that decreases the profit if there's much of one to begin with. At the end, there's still tons of stuff to dispose of. For a lot of people, it's easier to do a cleanout, especially if they have tight timelines due to a pending sale.
@@WorthingtonHome This makes a lot of sense. We donated most of my parents’ items. It took us weeks and weeks to go through their things. They had been married over 70 years, traveled the world and accumulated a lot.
Hi Kris great job! Do you have a link to the auction, or did I miss that? Thanks 🙂
Hi Laura! The estate sale is already over, but I'll definitely let you know next time we have one.
Ok thanks ❤
@@WorthingtonHomeI wish I knew about the auction too😢I did like a few of those furniture pieces.
Kris, I looked on your online eBay for the framed alphabet needlework that I saw in your video. Has it been sold, not for sale or a keeper for your home?
Hello! It was actually sold on an online estate sale that we did in the beginning of the summer. It was very pretty! I'm sorry that it's no longer available, but I do find pieces like it from time to time, so stay tuned!
Can you not put the furniture on consignment somewhere??
I supposed we could, but we would rather either sell it or donate it. It's just quicker and easier. We only discard furniture that's damaged.
