New subscriber, binging my way through your charity shopping haha! There's so many cute things I see on the shelves that I never find here in Australia. Looking forward to moving to the UK soon so I can buy it all when I get over there 🤣
When you were in the Willow shop,near the Pyrex you picked up there was a piece of glass I collect. It's quite hard to find and is 1960s modernist glass made in Italy by Joe Colombo!.
Lovely glasses especially the wine glasses. The top really suits you. Welwyn Garden City has fond memories for me as I went to school there. The school was in Park Way some 15 minutes walk from were you were charity shopping. It was called 'Mater Dei' it was pulled down about 25 years ago replaced by housing.
Hi Andrea, that top looks great on you. The smoked glass and glasses are nice, we got a set with an F on them the glasses were whisky glasses. And both my sons have three each witch they still use today. My boys are getting on to fifty but I don’t see them that way as older men. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💞💚🥰🤗
i went to a where house in silver town E16 is called thrift factory where you can get shoes handbags and clothes of your own choice just in 10pound per kilo.
Love the wine glasses, we have a jug like the one you are now going to sell, but it’s clear and shorter and fatter but such a lovely style people always remark on it. Unfortunately I have 6 jugs and when you said ‘you only need one jug’ I thought whoops, she’s right, but some get used for flowers
Thankyou for supporting charity shops. Fast-fashion is built upon the suffering of millions of workers (90% women, many children) in China, Bangladesh, India, Cambodia... workers who have to endure endless shifts for wages below the poverty line. And let's not mention the sexual harassment the young female workers suffer in those sweatshops. We all know about this: the exploitation, the pollution of the air and the waterways, the dissapearance of the Aral sea, the child cotton-pickers in Uzbekistan, the cambodian police beating up textile workers asking for a living wage, the mountains of clothes piling up in land-fills all over the world.... Let's boycott fast-fashion. Let's share, swap, buy second hand, support fairtrade brands... and above all, do we still need more clothes?

Thanks for the comment. I whole heartedly agree with you. I promote shopping second hand and vintage, and personally quit buying fast fashion a few years ago. My husband and I have been passionate about this for many years which is why we chose to rehome and repurpose items as our jobs and now we have UA-cam channels.. this one and our main channel (Nic & Andrea Hills) where we talk about what we do and the low impact/second hand lifestyle we have.
@@andreahills74 I totally agree with you. I think that fast fashion is one of the worst things in our society and I think that most people are totally unaware about the social and environmental implications of it. Fashion brings to mind images of blond beautiful women and not of children sewing 16h in Bangladesh. It is going to be hard to change this.
@@javicaballero99 It’s not going to happen overnight that’s for sure, but I think overall we’re moving in a positive direction. It was good to see Love Island working with eBay this year.
@@andreahills74 Yes, things are definitely changing but all of us are going to have to work together a lot to move things even more. By the way, congratulations on your videos.
I love how you're connecting with the community and bringing joy to others!

I appreciate that you take time to really show us the items. Too many buzz through and wave the camera around til I feel ill.
Great video Andrea! The top looks beautiful on and I love the jug and glasses 😍

Ah, you see, still so much to learn! I’ll take a look back and try to remember if I see it again. Thanks 🙂

Oh wow, you know it very well then 🙂
Those wine glasses are stunning. And, i really like that shirt on you. Really pretty.
Thanks Jane 🙂

Our kids are always our ‘kids’ aren’t they? ☺️
The glasses were a bargain! Top looks lovely!
Glad I found your channel again , really enjoying. have managed to bag myself some bargains already
Good to hear you’ve been enjoying the videos 😃
Pretty top looks lovely on you. I stayed in WGC when I came up for the first Hitchin meet up. Really enjoyed looking around there.
Thank you 🙂 It’s lovely there. Nic and I used to work in the Our Price in the Howard Centre years ago.

Lol i live nearby .....so many charity shops 😂😂

I have a couple of jugs I use as vases too, but I don’t like using them for drinking water after, so just keep them for flowers 🙂
The top looks lovely on you Andrea x
Ebenezer Howard was una stubbs grandfather
Oh really! 😃
Hi Angela! I love your videos, but because of so many cuts they do not flow naturally, so much potential if kept raw and natural!
Thanks for the comment. If kept raw it would be 3 hours long as I’m not a natural orator. Glad you’ve enjoyed the videos as they are though, Andrea.
@@andreahills74 The whole point of editing seems to pass some people by…😮
