i would absolutely have walter appraised… the curiosity would kill me!! i think it makes perfect sense to know the value of a find regardless of wether or not you’re keeping it
I agree about holding a book. I love the crocks and your house is coming along beautifully ❤️ I lovvveee Walter you can get it appraised it would be interesting keep us updated if you do either way it is great 😊
I’m just finding your channel and your style is almost exactly what I aim for in my home. I’m binge watching your channel. ❤ I also love thrifting and re-finishing my finds. Thank you!
I love all of your items. It’s fun to thrift with your mom. I do it too. And, of your items, I especially love the candle sconces and the two-tone pottery piece.
Wow I love all your pieces I also love the pottery pieces, every one is unique and I love being able to look into a bit of the persons thought process when making them, it really connects you to the pieces Ok Walter is amazing! I would definitely find out how much he’s worth 😍
Kerry, I love your thought process on pottery, it’s so true! It’s really incredible what people can make with their hands and I love that fact that every single handmade piece is unique. Thank you for watching and for your thoughts on Walter! I have been wavering lol 🖤🖤
Thank you!! Yes, I agree! It doesn’t really matter to me what his monetary value is, but I would just love to know if the time period is correct and what other details an expert might have!
Really loved the places you and your Mom visited for your thrifting ‘spree’…So many unique items and excellent prices….I bet you could have bought more?!…but good to be choosy…and know what you want in your home…I remember the little side table from the guest room video…it was a ‘steal’…the iron lamp was great and I recall that candlestick you showed earlier too👍…those wall sconces are ‘the Best’….I’m sure you will find others to buy.. and the two you have will be a great detail in the entry way as you suggested…As you may remember, books are a ‘passion of mine…so always love to see them used in the way you do….beautiful as well as being literary history too. Knew that you would bring back some pottery and stoneware to add to your collections… the one with the interesting colour variations, looked as if it might be ‘Raku’ pottery…(wish you had shown the base of it…)…not an expert, but it had that look???….the lidded casserole/ serving dish and cover looked mid century period..which I seriously love!!…Buying with your ‘heart’ is the best way to go 👍👍….Art and lovely frames… another favourite of yours (and mine)..very pretty leaf detail on the one you chose…As for ‘Walter’…the back of paintings are the best indication of age/history in many cases…wish we could have seen the whole of the back….anyway…If you adore him… that’s enough…You are wise to take ‘stories’ with a large pinch of salt’….’He was still quite inexpensive…’ whatever the age…(hope he might be special)…Look forward to your next area of your home you tackle…. P.S…..another lovely and intriguing gift from your Mom….what a savvy thrifter she is too…Cheers from Sue (Birmingham, England) 🇬🇧to🇺🇸
Yes, I totally could have spent all my money there, but like you said, trying to buy smart these days! The vintage books are just beautiful, I am not surprised a book lover like yourself feels that way too. I actually talked about the back of the canvas a bit and I totally messed up so I had to edit it out. 😔 The canvas is darker unlike the newer light canvases, which is another sign Walter could be quite an older piece! Thank you so much for watching and leaving me these kind words 🖤
@@thisgirlathome You have so many appreciative subscribers…because your videos are so interesting and genuine…hope all of ‘our’ comments give you pleasure and encouragement 👌👌…Sue 🇬🇧👋
Absolutely you should get it appraised. That way If you home catches fire or your home’s broke into you have that information for home owners insurance.
I love older crocks and the one you found is beautiful. I also love the frame with the green/gray color matting. Maybe a little Art Nouveau? I think I'd want to know how old Walter is, but not to sell. It has that Rembrandt type coloring, though I know it is much younger. Great finds!!!
I think you should know if Walter is old and worth a lot because you can add him to your insurance and if something happens to him they can replace the money he could be worth. Loved your haul 💗
Hi. I just found your video today. I will subscribe! I love Walter the best. I must say you found some nice pieces. Thank you. I look forward to seeing more videos 😊
I enjoy how you explain every piece. I'm more old English décor/ cottage core. Many of your pieces would go nice with vintage. My favorite was the serving casserole dish. Beautiful.
i enjoyed. i love books. i love old books too. i love to read everything. to me books make a house a home, that & art. although i go more for pastels in my decor, i admire your things as well. i subscribed.
I loved everything! But I did love the round lamp that you didn't get. And the other lamp that looked like a milk jar, I just thrifted two of those. I'm going to try and cover them to look like cement vases. My brother has no faith that I can do that...but we shall see. LOL!
You found something very special when you found 'Walter', Chelsea. It would be interesting to find out how old he is, but it can be pricey to have an appraisal done. Did you find a signature on the painting to use to research it?
I have several pieces of pottery and the dark piece of pottery in your video looks to be a small butter churn. It’s missing the paddle and the lid. It’s a great piece!
I was stoked to see a video from you! LOVE that wicker lamp. Gorgeous! I like Walter the way he is. I think it would be ok to see what he might be worth.
Thanks so much my friend!! My mom also loved the wicker lamp a lot! Thank you, too, for the thoughts on what to do with Walter. I have been so stuck! 🖤
Just fyi. Amazon sells taper candles (flickering flame with a timer) that would fit in those beautiful sconces. Love the haul and Walter. It would be a fun adventure to get an opinion as to the era & history surrounding the piece. Your call.🖼
See how much Walter is worth for sure! Also what if you switched your lamp shades from the two lamps you bought? Just thought it might be really nice switched but also like it as is.
The pottery piece you spent the most on is a butter churn. It’s missing the lid and the dash. Keep Walter out of direct or bright sunlight he will fade much faster.
I loved everything you picked up! We have very similar styles. The two stores you went to were amazing! Do you mind sharing the name of the antique stores?
Hey Girlfriend 👋 Love everything as usual! Can't wait to see everything styled! Your so lucky with your thrift stores, mine aren't that great, but I have found some good things
Hiiii! I definitely intend to make a video on styling my thrifts, just have to plan it! Sometimes I have to travel a bit to find the good ones, so don’t feel down!
What a great haul!!! The pottery you found is incredible and I can't believe how inexpensive it was! When I find pottery like that is usually at least double that so that is amazing! But I'm esssppppecially obsessed with that table you found, it's gorgeous! Oh and I love that you brought your momma along, I also go thrifting with my momma and it's the best! 😊 I'm so happy I found your channel! P.S. I TOTALLY relate to the whole content schedule struggle with my channel too haha... The struggle is real! 😅 But thanks for sharing the great haul, I can't wait to watch more of your videos!
My favorite pieces from today's haul are the pottery crocks. I really think you should learn more about "Walter". Please let us know what you discover:)
I found some water color paintings and the artist seems to be really famous. I don’t know how to go about getting them looked at so I would love for you to do that and share.
I use Dr. Lori (also a UA-camr) when I need help. You can try to hop onto one of her live events or I think it’s like $49 for three verbal appraisals through her website. She’s my go to. Love your finds by the way!
I have actually found her since my video! I learned a lot about the back of a painting from one of her videos, she is so informative. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with her, Kasey! 🖤
I don't know if you know or not but you can buy taper candles that are buy luminara are they have a flame on them that look like a real flame has a timer that you just set the timer to go off and on at the same time that would be cool to go in there and you wouldn't have to keep taking the globe off and worried about burning the house down with the real candle
Hmm good question. That’s a hard one for me, because honestly I love him the way he is, even though there is damage. I think I’d maybe ask the expert some questions about that.
He is lovely . He is in poor condition which is sad but you saved him which is great. I do know it is hard to repair given his condition . But if anything a professional can tell you the age and I wished I could have seen the back that can tell a lot . Beautiful enjoy 💜
This haul is amazing! Walter is a gorgeous piece. It would be interesting to have it appraised. My hubby and I just saw on tv that a woman bought a piece of art at a Goodwill for $35 and it was worth $1.5 million. Imagine that!
Hello my lovely friends! Thank you so much for watching! Which piece from today is your favorite?! 🖤
The sconces
@@annemariealvarez4289 I love them so much too!
i would absolutely have walter appraised… the curiosity would kill me!! i think it makes perfect sense to know the value of a find regardless of wether or not you’re keeping it
I agree about holding a book. I love the crocks and your house is coming along beautifully ❤️ I lovvveee Walter you can get it appraised it would be interesting keep us updated if you do either way it is great 😊
Thank you! Holding a book just feels differently to me. ☺️ I will absolutely update you if I decide to take Walter to an expert!
Again, great classic choices. LOVE Walter-what an amazing find! Very fun video.
I’m just finding your channel and your style is almost exactly what I aim for in my home. I’m binge watching your channel. ❤ I also love thrifting and re-finishing my finds. Thank you!
Your mom is just as beautiful as you. Love the pieces that you thrifted. Love to know how you used them to decorate. Always love your videos.
Oh that’s so sweet, thank you! I am going to work a video into my schedule to show how I style my thrifted pieces ☺️
I love that white casserole dish, too. The lid has a little MCM vibe going on. Fun video with your mom!
Great finds, love the table, crock and oh my goodness the painting is amazing! I love it.
Robin, thanks so much! It was definitely a successful thrifting trip ☺️☺️
Love all your finds! I would get Walter appraised for sure
Debbie, thanks so much! I am definitely leaning towards finding out more about Walter ☺️
Walter is absolutely gorgeous!!! So many beautiful finds! Love the crocks too!
Thanks so much lady! It was definitely a great thrifting day 🖤
Definitely my favorite haul!! That moody brown/black vessel is absolutely breathtaking!!
Thanks Taylor! I probably say the same every time, but this one was definitely special ☺️
LOVE your videos and please keep them coming! Just discovered your channel today and loved everything you picked up. You have great taste. 💕

Thanks so much, Angie!! We had a really good time together ☺️
As far as "Walter" goes.. I would have him appraised.. add it to your homeowners insurance if he's costly.. 😊
Literally one of the, if not THE BEST HAUL.. I’ve ever seen...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
😯 thank you so so much! Wow! That is awesome to hear ☺️🖤
Nice to have your mom! That’s what I use to do with my mom I miss those days I miss her! Cherish it❤️
Susan, you are absolutely right! I’m so sorry you don’t get to do that anymore 🖤
Love your haul! Great prices too
@@susanguzzo3643 these were definitely great prices, thank you!
Looove the patina of Walter!
You have the most amazing finds!!! I say take the painting in! I also think it's amazing to learn the details on those kinds of things!

Wonderful finds. You found so many amazing items but my favorite is for sure Walter. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks Penny! I love that you love Walter too! ☺️
I like Walter best. I would have it appraised, just for for my own knowledge. Really like your channel.
Thank you so much, Judy! I hear you, it would feel good to know for sure either way!
love your haul - get Walter appraised it would be very interesting to his history x
Thank you! I agree, I’d love to know more about his age 🖤
This video was great. Love the woven /wicker lamp.. Walter looks like he was an intelligent, wise soul . Would love to find out more about Walter .
Thank you! My mom loved the wicker lamp when she saw it and convinced me lol. I totally agree about Walter, he just seems sweet lol.
I love the smell of books.
I love older crocks and the one you found is beautiful. I also love the frame with the green/gray color matting. Maybe a little Art Nouveau? I think I'd want to know how old Walter is, but not to sell. It has that Rembrandt type coloring, though I know it is much younger. Great finds!!!

Thanks Deb! It was a lot of fun hunting with my mom ☺️

Love everything--I think we must be style soul sisters--but I especially love the the last two pottery pieces and the antique painting.
Oh thank you so much Darina!
I loved everything! But I did love the round lamp that you didn't get. And the other lamp that looked like a milk jar, I just thrifted two of those. I'm going to try and cover them to look like cement vases. My brother has no faith that I can do that...but we shall see. LOL!
He definitely looks like a Walter and those pottery pieces!! Love the serving dish too!
We thought so too! I’m glad someone else loves the serving dish ☺️☺️ Thank you so much for watching!
Ok, the white crock is so pretty, Chelsea!🤍😍 I also like the black mug.🖤✨🥰
Thanks Sarah!! My mom spoiled me with the black mug surprise ☺️☺️
Everything is beautiful 😍 👍🏼🙏😘
Thank you so much, Silvia!!
The painting has to be at least 400 years old. The ratan lamp is pure love!
I am so happy that you aren’t a reseller ❤ love you video ! Subscribed 😊😊😊
Thank you so much! ☺️🤗
Love the old photo, books and lamp
Thank you so much 🖤🖤

Fabulous finds love the video and it would be cool to see how old Walter is.
Thanks Becky! I think I have been convinced to take Walter to someone ☺️
Where is this antique shop located? Lots of beautiful pieces.
Wow that crock is wonderful and price amazing!!
Thanks Kathleen! I definitely felt lucky getting such a large crock at that price ☺️
I was stoked to see a video from you! LOVE that wicker lamp. Gorgeous! I like Walter the way he is. I think it would be ok to see what he might be worth.
Thanks so much my friend!! My mom also loved the wicker lamp a lot! Thank you, too, for the thoughts on what to do with Walter. I have been so stuck! 🖤
Your style is so beautiful. Rustic/primitive but still somehow sophisticated.
Thanks so much! I definitely love vintage pieces 🖤
Oh wow such great finds. Hard to pick a favorite but those scones were georgious.and the pottery pieces
Thanks so much, Ruth! I am in love with the sconces too! I still haven’t decided for sure where I want to put them 🙈
@@thisgirlathome 😊
You got some great stuff antiquing! Love Walter!
Thanks, Libby!! He is such a special guy ☺️
Just found your channel and love your hauls
I love Walter! Get him valued! Might want to list in your insurance. Protect him regardless.
Thanks Bobbi! If I end up getting information on him that recommends that, I absolutely will ☺️🖤
My favorite has to be the lamp and the second to last frame 😍
Thank you! I am obsessed with lamps for some reason 🙈🙈.
Just fyi. Amazon sells taper candles (flickering flame with a timer) that would fit in those beautiful sconces. Love the haul and Walter. It would be a fun adventure to get an opinion as to the era & history surrounding the piece. Your call.🖼
That’s a great idea, Eleanor! I also think it could be fun to find out more about Walter, especially the history! Thanks for watching ☺️
You need to know about Walter for insurance purposes. I love thrifting and adore your videos!
That’s a good thought! I didn’t consider that, thank you! 🖤
Oh my goodness I love your style!! Just subscribed 💛 excited to follow and learn from you!
Thanks so much girlfriend! I appreciate it 🖤

Thank you! I knew with that inside rim it had to be something else, so I learned something new! Walter is in my office for that exact reason! ☺️☺️
Favorite is nWalter and the 1 dollar cup thing.

I have started looking into professionals for Walter! Thank you for watching 🖤
Lovely 🥰 video!
The crock with the inner ring was used to preserve food. The top was sealed with a piece of cloth dipped in wax.
Get Walter appraised. You never know…it could be so valuable that it may need to be insured if you’re not selling…☺️
Hey there, just found you. Love your finds.
Yay! Thanks Lisa! Much appreciated ☺️
I found some water color paintings and the artist seems to be really famous. I don’t know how to go about getting them looked at so I would love for you to do that and share.
Please take Walter and find out how old he is, inquiry minds love to know. My favorite is wall sconces.
Great finds
Thank you, Ramona!!
You and your Mom have the most beautiful eyes!
Great stuff

That piece you weren't sure about looks like a churn. The rim looks like it could hold a wooden lid with the dasher in the middle of it.
I believe someone else said the same thing, so I think you guys are right! Thank you 🖤
Walter picture looks haunted 😮
Great stuff loved it
Thank you so much!!
Wonderful finds!
Thank you so much!
good haul chelsea i think you should take walter to an expert depending on what they say you may want to insure him
I am definitely thinking I will at some point. Thank you Linda!
Love everything!
Thank you!!
I don't know if you know or not but you can buy taper candles that are buy luminara are they have a flame on them that look like a real flame has a timer that you just set the timer to go off and on at the same time that would be cool to go in there and you wouldn't have to keep taking the globe off and worried about burning the house down with the real candle
Great haul!
Thank you so much!
Girl those prices were amazing! Where do you live? Jelly!
I bought a painting at a thrift store last year, I just happened to look up the gal who painted it, it auctioned in 2014 for 7000.00 I was shocked.
It is amazing what you can find! That sounds like a great piece 😀
If “Walter” is indeed old would you consider having him restored?
Hmm good question. That’s a hard one for me, because honestly I love him the way he is, even though there is damage. I think I’d maybe ask the expert some questions about that.
He is lovely . He is in poor condition which is sad but you saved him which is great. I do know it is hard to repair given his condition . But if anything a professional can tell you the age and I wished I could have seen the back that can tell a lot . Beautiful enjoy 💜
Is Walter coming for Thanksgiving?
You should by the battery operated taper that flicker.
Where are you finding these pictures?!
You have amazing taste..!!!!
Where do you go thrifting?
This haul is amazing! Walter is a gorgeous piece. It would be interesting to have it appraised. My hubby and I just saw on tv that a woman bought a piece of art at a Goodwill for $35 and it was worth $1.5 million. Imagine that!
Omg I saw that! The piece of the sculpture right? Thank you so much, I definitely am starting to think it would be a good idea ☺️
👏👏👏👏
Thank you Myrtle 🖤
Do you still use Walter in your home?
Yes! He is in my office/guest room ☺️
