The one you left behind is the better of the 2 fish paintings and colorful. Pastels need to be hung or laid flat to prevent pastel dust (or sprayed lightly with fixative or hairspray to set.) You can replace the mat very inexpensively. Metal frames unscrew so easy to do.
yes! I loved the 2nd fish painting and would have reframed/rematted it for that low price!!!!
Agreed, those metal frames are easy to remove and put back together.
Picture mats can be spray painted, to freshen them up, or change their color. It's fast and easy.
I absolutely LOVE your channel, you have such an eye for what might sell!
Hi Karen! That iron thread box is super cute and may appeal to multiple audiences. Sewing, people who collect vintage irons, people who like folk art. Just my thoughts. Good luck selling it!
I love your taste as well your enthusiasm
Random resells well! The Burwood MCM fans were an excellent find! Hope you had a fabulous vacation!
I love the way you shop.
I swear I saw the shoe!😂..just after the fun fringe boots, & about when you say " I wish I could hear you guys"..the bottom shelf, next to the white shoe, was the match!😏. This was fun Karen!💞..also, BEST Kiki's Delivery Service poster I've ever seen!💞
I agree...22:06.
An awesome price on the boho Lucky Brand patchwork purse
Watching you try to open the silver Santa is hysterical. Its a stocking hangar😃😃
Good haul Miss Karen!
Love, love, LOVE the fish pics. I loved the pastel & personally would’ve taken it, and just reframed it. I have large fish tanks though, so I am a “fish” person, lol. The large gold fans were also amazing! You are so fortunate to have such amazing thrifting near you! I am super happy for you 😊 xo
The print at the beginning of your thrift was sold at a Seattle art boutique shop in the 80's or 90's. I had to have it because it was so unusual. It was an unnumbered print with a cheap gold plastic frame. I paid $60 back then and it was very expensive at that time when my monthly rent was $110 per month.
Kiki’s delivery service is animated film by Hayao Miyazaki and people LOVE his work.
I want it!!!!
Studio Ghibli is the Japanese equivalent of Disney films, with a cult following in U.S.
Wow! Great information!
Studio Ghibli print highly collectible. Kiki’s delivery service is one of their films ( anime)
It's one of my favorites!
I have 9 of those large fans. I spray paint them gold, wired on a small green wreath and a pretty bow on the wreath. Then hang them on my outside windows with a spot light on them.
The thread holding decorative iron is adorable.
Hello fr the Alamo City. Glad I came across your site!
Good afternoon. Watching you while laying on a heating pad. Having our water pipes replaced tomorrow and have spent the last 2 days moving my office, inventory, and money pile out of the basement so none of it gets wet. What a job!!! Never thought of this negative when we moved into a 1950's fixer-upper. Love your channel. Gives me ideas and makes me happy. Thank you.
Good luck with your project!!
Hey Hon, that Kiki's delivery service is on HBO. The poster you have looks prettier than most of them; if that is what the poster is about.
Gotta love Karen "Not buying anymore art" literally 5 seconds later puts new art in the cart 😅😅😅 love yah Girl! ❤️
😂😂👍💜
And I really wanted her to get the pastel fish print!! My mom said “message her & tell her not to leave her purse!!” I said mom people tell her that all the time!!
Karen you might be able to get the pastel off the matting with a kneaded eraser (gum eraser), if you take it out of the frame. At Michaels or Hobbs Lobbs, come as a square you knead it in your hand until it warms up. It is useful to have in a resellers kit.
You could always buy a new Matt for your fish pictures. Bc it’s super easy to do n wouldn’t cost much more than $5-10. If you change it out yourself. Just a thought.
I spotted that fish a second before you did! I’m the same with art, but I do keep it. Stunning piece. Yes, I’d have grabbed the other , mostly because I’d want to spiff it up.
oooh that GW is so quiet I love it
I think i would hsve taken both of those fosh paintings 😊
Check battery compartment...been burned too many times at Goodwill. We take a small Phillip head screwdriver to open compartment if need be.
Good to hear you enjoyed your vacation! I am waiting for you to list the curtains and linens you got before you went on vacation. Glad to see you back!
My daughter believes the Kiki art is fan made . It retails new on Allie express for $1.90 . We don't know the artist, but it is lovely. Have a great day and God bless 😊. From Nancy and Becky in ga usa.
I had those big fans. Got them in the late 80’s from Home Interiors home party company. Wish I still had them.
Go back and grab that black standing iron lamp with the candle and heart on top of it i would buy it .
The silver Santa is a stocking holder.
New subscriber, I love thrifting also but not for EBay…love the Wall Fans and the copper image of Lord Jesus.
I like your soft and soothing voice ❤️
So random, I love it
I could have used the silver Santa stocking holder this Christmas! The ones I have aren't heavy enough.
Hi Karen! 🌹
The thing from Ross was a plant stand.
Love that basket!
Maitland Smith is a high-end furniture company. Frames are the smallest thing they make
Great haul
Some really nice things 😊
Noooo, do not leave the fish picture. 😊
Art prints were a big miss!😢
I love those fans!!!
Your whole cart is boho🤗
I would have taken the other fish picture out of the frame.
So how did it feel when you went to pay & realized all the blue tags you had were half off?
Do people give you looks when you are talking to us in the store?
Nope 😂 I think most of them know me by now lol
Are you going to list these items or are they already sold?
I just sub to you
How old is that arow on the floor?
Why don’t you just Google Lens these unusual pieces?
Google Lens rarely works for me with unusual items
The fish artwork you picked up is EVERYTHING. I would have a hard time parting with it. Would go straight up on my walls 😅
Yes the fish charcoal is wonderful.
If the smutz is only on the mat of the fish pastel, that could be replaced easily enough.
If it had been me, I would have taken it.
I LOVE your down to earth way of vocalizing your thoughts. And, I'm learning from you. I plan to get involved in thrifting and flipping. 👍🏻
The pastel angel fish artwork was also beautiful. The matte could have been changed easily. Wish I lived in PA- I would have bought it😊🐠
same i want that!
The fish pictures are so cool! I wonder if the pastel one could be re-matted?
💕Hello Ms. Karen. I’m a minimalist, but I LOVE the adventure of exploring thrift stores. There is so much history and so many treasures everywhere. I love watching your videos because I feel like I’m right there with you. Your daughter and Roger are delightful. Thank you for being so sweet and so informative. You’re definitely my UA-cam friend 💕
Ohhhh how sweet!! Hello friend 💜
Man I wish we had a good will around here that had nice stuff like this
I love watching your videos! So much fun. I gasped at the peacock sculpture! They are my favorite. I agree they wouldn’t be a great seller, but MAN, if I’d found them they’d be coming home with me. Fun to see!
I know, I love the peacocks, too, for some reason
Love your videos- you pick up things that I would have walked past- I'm learning so much and I think it is making me a better reseller. Thanks so much.
Those nesting baskets didn't come with tops hun. I have them Walmart brand! Super cute still for a bathroom
That pastel fish picture just needed to be removed from frame, sprayed with a fixative and put in a new mat. It was gorgeous original art.
Unfortunately with a full time ebay business and full time youtube, I don’t have time 😊
I was told by an employee at the Bins that they sell unsold items per pound to other countries. She said unsold merchandise does not go to the landfill. I was glad to hear that, if it’s true. My Bins is in New Castle DE, so not sure if Keystone Goodwill is the same.
You were excited about the fish prints and missed the beautiful autumn painting on the right. 😍 Loved this video - so many goodies! Shopping Goodwill in January is always fun as people are cleaning out their homes!!
It’s a common print 💜
Hi Karen! I am a pastel artist and the fish piece is beautiful! It can be taken out of the frame and re-matted with spacers between the art and mat. Do not ever touch or have any pastel unframed to ship, it could ruin the artwork! Pastel is pure pigment and will last forever if cared for properly. Love to you and happy thrifting!
I don’t see any problem rematting if the artists signature isn’t on it and it matches.
Aren't art works done in pastels usually sprayed with a fixative to keep the pigments from rubbing off and/or smearing?
Kiki was a '89 movie
Kiki’s Delivery Service is from a Japanese film. I think it would be desirable!
That green glass near the Colombia cup… I have those. Just thought you’d all want to know. 😂
Lots of fun and wonderful, unique finds Karen...as a non-reseller, I just love going "window shoppng" with you! :)
Me too !
Not sure if anyone commented on the Kiki's Delivery service poster, it is an anime, by Hayao Miyazaki. Let me know if you ended up picking it up, I would be interested in purchasing it. 😆
FYI Karen
They have already started yellow ticket markdown at Tjmaxx Maxx, second markdown will be week after next probably.
I saw! 😁😁😁👍
The geode piece was probably citrine, which is quite desirable. If a piece like that was red or blue it would be dyed, not natural. Natural colors for something like that would mostly be amethyst or citrine, or a clear or smoky gray quartz.
Love your channel. You gave me a chuckle watching you trying to open the Santa stocking holder. I didn't know what it was either.
You could just flip the mat around on the fish picture..most likely white on the other side...great finds!
Learning a lot about what sells and what doesn’t - thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!
Proverbidiom: what I ypthik you found there is a piece of art consisting of Proverbs and Idiom, hence the paintings name. I think it has hundreds placed inside the art.
300!
You can take the fish drawing out of there…it is a nice picture .
I would hang the poster with the frame as it is because it is awesome!
If you could go hand's free with your camera it would help.
I have a chest mount which when worn puts the screen against your body… so you can’t see what you’re filming
I had that fan hanging on my wall for 10 years 😮😂❤
Hi Karen. I would have taken both fish pastels, easy fix replace matting.
Love watching you shop.
How could they nest if they all had tops?
Good point!
Take the fish!
I have those exact fans and I picked one up by the handle like you did and snapped it so I was so worried you were going to break it when you were holding it like that so glad it didn't break on you like it did on me
What did you do for a career before you were a full time reseller?
I managed a fitness studio
Oh I would have definitely taken the 2nd Fish picture !!
Hi dear, lov ur videos, u have 1645 views so far only an hour in, that's about 27 views a minute....great content ur voice is so soothing, thanks...
The fans are Home Interior over 30 yrs.
Yes, someone would want the iron box.
Everyone agrees on how great the fish art is. Karen. You can rematt the 2nd one. I would've bought them both. So good to have you back. All recharged after Florida! ❤️
You can easily and cheaply replace matting inside of artwork frames.
Yall have the best GW stores! I have not found good ones in N. Florida like yours.
Too much stuff - it is sad so much stuff goes to the landfill, but I think the real problem is people buying cheap junk in the first place that breaks or they get tired of rather than buying less and buying quality that lasts.
Apparently Judy & Mike got sick of fish pictures. lol
Noooo.....you left the Agate bookend!! I 3.99 is less that 10% of it's value. I'd kill to find that beautiful amber for 3.99. Kiki's is anime....
What a fun trip, so much right off the bat!!! The large charcoal fish is just amazing!!!! Thank you for a great trip to the thrift Karen💜Lavender
Hi dear, did u sell those big fans u found in goodwill yet? I just found one today, 17 feb, 23... I'm so happy.. u really are helping us out. Thanks
Those fans are fantastic! All the MOODY MAXIMALIST love!
18:07…. Pretty sure you missed a green Viking Stockholm 5 petal/lotus bowl. Middle of the screen, 2nd from the bottom shelf.
I have just found your channel. I appreciate your calm voice and I enjoy shopping with with you. I think you have a great eye for good art. I hope you have assistants that help you. They could hold your camera and help you put stuff in your car and you can have them put things away in your organized warehouse. Anyway, I will be a new subscriber.
I can’t believe the fish prints you found! Quality! I’m an addict to paintings and prints, as well! I wanted to tell you that the Goodwills in PA (I lived in Strasburg as a kid) are amazing compared to the ones we have here in AZ. Love your channel, Karen!
You have an amazing gift for finding quality items! In a sea of “trash” you find the gems 😂 ❤
