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.
💕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 💕
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!
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.
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!
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!!
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 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.
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
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
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!💞
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! ❤️
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.
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.
I agree when us resellers start to think about all the stuff going to landfills not sure about you but it stresses me out a bit. I'm glad reselling has that charm of saving our earth in the same respect. We save ALOT. Yay for us!
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.
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!
Love your channel , thanks for taking all of us subscriber’s on the journey . You know the products ,have great advice and your sense of humor is the best !
I live close to Gap, PA so I love your adventures and am learning where to stop during my travels around the area. I don’t sell or flip, but love to browse. Also loved your Barnyard Boys video. That sale is a hoot!
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.
Such fun,I remember those Amish figures were expensive back in the 1990's,those might have been the cheaper painted type,so many great finds,love it all.
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.
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 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!
Oh Yeah!!!another evening with Lavender clothesline before I head to bed. I love your channel Karen and I still find myself saying Get that Karen! I pitcher was so cute. Was there more canisters inside the green stripped? The fish pictures were a fabulous find. If the mat was stained it wouldnt devalue the picture, would it? Love the shopping trip. Have a great day!
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!

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.

Ohhhh how sweet!! Hello friend 💜
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.

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?
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. 👍🏻
I absolutely LOVE your channel, you have such an eye for what might sell!
The fish pictures are so cool! I wonder if the pastel one could be re-matted?
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!
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.
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 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
I would hang the poster with the frame as it is because it is awesome!
Those nesting baskets didn't come with tops hun. I have them Walmart brand! Super cute still for a bathroom
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 💜
You could just flip the mat around on the fish picture..most likely white on the other side...great finds!
You can take the fish drawing out of there…it is a nice picture .
You have an amazing gift for finding quality items! In a sea of “trash” you find the gems 😂 ❤
Random resells well! The Burwood MCM fans were an excellent find! Hope you had a fabulous vacation!
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!
Learning a lot about what sells and what doesn’t - thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!
An awesome price on the boho Lucky Brand patchwork purse
Man I wish we had a good will around here that had nice stuff like this
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.
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 !
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
Karen, you just make me smile! Love thrifting with you!
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

I agree...22:06.
Thank u for explaining things! Love ur channel!
Oooh, I would have snagged the green Whitehall glass in a heartbeat. I’m on the lookout for green ones.
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.
Oh I would have definitely taken the 2nd Fish picture !!
Oh i love th e fish...it would look great in your new bathroom❤
Good haul Miss Karen!
I love your taste as well your enthusiasm
Hi Karen. I would have taken both fish pastels, easy fix replace matting.
Love watching you shop.
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! ❤️
I love the way you shop.
Yes to the fish drawing. Great finds!
18:07…. Pretty sure you missed a green Viking Stockholm 5 petal/lotus bowl. Middle of the screen, 2nd from the bottom shelf.
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.
The charcoal artwork of the fish is AMAZING!!! Go back for the pastel... Now!
Watching you try to open the silver Santa is hysterical. Its a stocking hangar😃😃
Yes, someone would want the iron box.
Yes! Take it out of the glass. Can easily get a new matte.
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.
Hello fr the Alamo City. Glad I came across your site!
Kiki’s Delivery Service is from a Japanese film. I think it would be desirable!
I agree when us resellers start to think about all the stuff going to landfills not sure about you but it stresses me out a bit. I'm glad reselling has that charm of saving our earth in the same respect. We save ALOT. Yay for us!
Kiki was a '89 movie
Picture mats can be spray painted, to freshen them up, or change their color. It's fast and easy.
Hi Karen loved some of your buys ,hope you had a good rest on your holiday lv Ann 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️
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.

I love the places you go to, wish I could find something good by me.

Your voice is so soothing. I love watching your shopping adventures. We share a love for shopping 🛍 ❤️
I agree!

Yay, Karen. Love your videos.
Yall have the best GW stores! I have not found good ones in N. Florida like yours.
“Baskets with no tops and shoes with no pair”!!! I love your thrifting style! You make it fun and a treasure hunt! 🎉👏🏽💗
I had those big fans. Got them in the late 80’s from Home Interiors home party company. Wish I still had them.
The thread holding decorative iron is adorable.
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.

Those fans are fantastic! You found some great items today.
LOVE THIS
You have such a good eye! I really liked the purse and the fans! Am looking forward to hearing more about "flipcon".
Love the fish pic ❤
That little sewing iron box would be great for the laundry room for mending prior to washing. Just a thought.
Nice stuff loved it
i am surprised at the high prices. thanks for taking us with you virtually.
What rare finds today.
Loved the peacocks and fruit bowl
I would be very interested in the iron shaped thread box. Thanks!
I had that fan hanging on my wall for 10 years 😮😂❤
Wow Karen you had to work your biceps 💪 today! Glad you’re home from your fun vacay!
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.
Such fun,I remember those Amish figures were expensive back in the 1990's,those might have been the cheaper painted type,so many great finds,love it all.
Those fans are fantastic! All the MOODY MAXIMALIST love!
Hi,
That first painting looks like a rendition of Heironymous Bosch painting. Interesting...love your videos.
The fish art is epic! 🐟🐠🐡 💗
Can’t wait for that sewing box iron to be in your eBay store!
The fish is awesome
The fans were fabulous.... great find.
I think i would hsve taken both of those fosh paintings 😊
oooh that GW is so quiet I love it
You can easily and cheaply replace matting inside of artwork frames.
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.
Good afternoon. Watching you while laying on a heating pad.

Good luck with your project!!
i want the iron shaped thread box for my sewing room and i agree that the black and white fish art is very good.
We missed you Karen, welcome back!!!
at 28:41...did you look at the pic just under the window with the blue matting? Looked like the same type frame....
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!
Oh Yeah!!!another evening with Lavender clothesline before I head to bed. I love your channel Karen and I still find myself saying Get that Karen! I pitcher was so cute. Was there more canisters inside the green stripped? The fish pictures were a fabulous find. If the mat was stained it wouldnt devalue the picture, would it? Love the shopping trip. Have a great day!
Wow..great haul Karen...fans, fish, woven basket, blue NC ugly face pottery, iron sewing basket.🐱🐱♥️♥️♥️
Check battery compartment...been burned too many times at Goodwill. We take a small Phillip head screwdriver to open compartment if need be.
I really enjoy watching you, you have the most soothing voice!
Thanks so much!
