You do not want to miss today’s episode I going to shop two different days at the Goodwill bins where I got tons of really good stuff it was like really lucky days and I’m also going to shop several different Goodwill stores as well so you’re going to see this super

Mega haul and I’m going to show you everything that I got at the end so stay tuned to the end and see everything I got and the prices that I spent on Everything for day one at the bins I couldn’t film because it was just way too crowded inside there I didn’t get a boatload of stuff I actually got more yesterday in 15 minutes than I got today in 30 minutes but it’s still good stuff and I only spent

$6 I don’t know how I lucked out and only spent $6 for all the stuff you’re going to see my husband and I put in the back of my trunk right now but I really did only spend $6 even amazing I can’t wait to show you all the cool stuff that

I got from these hauls at the end of the video I think you’re going to really like the majority of everything I got and also let me know if there’s anything that you see in my next shopping part that you would pick up that I didn’t

Pick up but here comes day two at the Goodwill bins and this is the day I got a lot more all right it is Friday now I went yesterday and that’s what you just saw and now I’m going to go again today and get even more stuff since yesterday

I didn’t get a whole lot although I did only spend $6 yesterday on everything that I got so I’m going to wait to show you my haul until I show you everything that I got for Thursday as well as for today on Friday and I’m really hoping

That I can find a lot of good stuff today um I just feel like maybe today’s going to be good I don’t know who knows maybe now that I said that it’s I’m totally jinxing and it’s going to be all garbage in there today who knows but

Let’s go this location for the Goodwill bins usually doesn’t open on time they’re supposed to open at 8: but they usually open up around 8:05 which is fine because traffic usually ends up making me be about that late anyways so I stood there and waited for a few toe

Taps and then we went inside a lot of people will actually run inside which I think is just crazy you’re really not making any difference in the amount of cool stuff that you find if you run because most of the time people are all looking for something different than

What you’re looking for although the people who are competing to pick out clothes maybe that’s why they need to do it I don’t know because I don’t really buy a lot of clothes from here and I don’t really know I know there’s a lot of people who resell clothing online and

Things on eBay I know there’s tons of people always in here looking for for toys in fact I was talking with a gentleman in here about how uh Scooby-Doo toys are really collectible and can make good money I guess I don’t know that’s not my thing and um if

You’re somebody who resells something from the Goodwill bins let me know what it is you resell what you’re looking for and um if what you’re doing makes you pretty good money online like if you sell it online or if you sell it in a booth just let me know what do you guys

Do when you’re shopping at the Goodwill bins with the things that you got so you can see a lot of the things that I saw were broken but I am finding a lot of really good stuff I’m actually really surprised at how much good stuff I’m

Finding and how fast I’m finding it guys I usually only spend about 30 minutes in the Goodwill bins the reason for this is that there’s not a lot of of these big bins that have home decor in it all these bins are like themed and organized

Based on like HomeGoods or all toys or all books all clothes and the home decor uh bins are few and far between but I’m like the only person shopping for this stuff here usually there’s usually maybe one other person maybe and they don’t they probably don’t have the same taste

I do who knows but the other bins that they bring out later maybe one of them might be home decor and the rest of them are going to be closed again so I don’t see a point in waiting there all day unless you’re really waiting to find

Something like if if you want to wait all day and see if you can find that one thing you really need or something like that but usually being in there for 30 minutes is all you need to find some really cool stuff and if you don’t find

Cool stuff in 30 minutes maybe you’re not going to find cool stuff if you stay there and wait so I personally did not suggest waiting for them to bring out more and more and more bins because the other bins they’re going to bring out are most likely going to be clothes or

Electronics or toys they’re not going to be a lot of Home Decor ones and you can see them kind of a preview of what they’re going to roll out soon and decide if it’s worth your time to wait or not but for me it’s not this is all

What I did in 30 minutes I was out of there by 8:30 a.m. which is really incredible that I can save that much time but the next Goodwills that I go to don’t open till 9:00 so we usually stop and grab some breakfast and um hang out

With the kids for a little bit in the car and then I’ll be ready to go to the next Goodwill at 9:00 but I’m going to let you enjoy some more of this shopping with some nice relaxing music now let me know if there’s something you see that I

Didn’t grab that you would have grabbed or if you would have grabbed the things that I did Grab Oh Oh Oh I can’t believe how much I got today and I also picked up some stuffed animals for my kiddos to give them for Valentine’s Day but it is super stacked I spent 7966 which is the most I’ve ever spent and and now it is time to load up so my

Husband’s pulling the car up to the front that way I don’t have to walk all this stuff on the bumpy asphalt and potentially break all the glass that I got considering it’s so rare to get glass from here that’s not already Broken Now it’s time to head to the first Goodwill store door all right I finished at the Goodwill bins and I’m heading out to all the Goodwill stores and this is the first Goodwill store stop good little baby I have a helper this time two helpers Come On Son let’s go close the

Door here we go you coming I don’t know this this store usually doesn’t have a whole lot let’s go the first store that I stopped at is this Goodwill that is geographically closer to the Goodwill bins moving more towards the more expensive neighborhoods so I go to Goodwills in the more

Expensive neighborhoods because in general they tend to have better things over there um and I just find better stuff this one used to be one that was really well priced when I first moved here to Houston about a year and a half ago but for some reason recently this has

Become one of the most expensive Goodwills that I shop at and I tend to not get much from here anyway so I think I might actually start taking this Goodwill off of my route for my Goodwill shopping and I think that maybe if I’m not shopping at it for a while and I

Come back and the prices get a little better then I might add it back on there again but for now I think I am actually going to take this off of my route for my Goodwill shopping days and I do all the Goodwill shopping usually in one day

Because of the way my work schedule works here with YouTube I have to put out two videos a week and then my husband Goes to School fulltime and his classes this semester are extremely timec consuming I didn’t expect them to be this time consuming for this semester I

Mean I should have I don’t know why I didn’t he’s taking chemistry um trigonometry and and uh government and what’s the other one oh programming fundamentals he’s actually going to college for hopefully his Bachelor of Science in computer programming computer science so he’s finally starting his actual degree classes now but they’re

Really hard this semester and he has to be doing class pretty much like 12 hours a day he’s either in class studying or doing homework and so my thrift shopping days are very limited right now for the time being but his education is really going to come first before me thrift

Shopping I have a huge stash of stuff in the garage that I can pull from especially after this day I don’t think I’m going to need to thrift shop again for about 2 weeks so my upcoming videos are going to be all about how I’m flipping all of the things that I found

Recently in this video or in my past videos that I haven’t showed you how I flip them yet I’m going to be doing a whole lot of thrift flipping so I hope that you’re excited for that and if that’s something that you like then definitely hit that subscribe button

Because I’m going to have tons of that content for you a question that I have for anyone who’s watching right now what would you rather see would you rather see a video of how I’m flipping them to sell them in my booth first or would you rather see how to decorate with thrifted

Stuff in your house and I think either one of those could come up next for my next Wednesday video instead of having a shopping video I’m going to do something with these thrip finds on that video and then this Sunday I have a Furniture flip

For you which is going to be a china hutch that I do in a French provincial look I think I got this China hutch for like $20 or maybe even free I’m not sure but it was in pretty rough shape and I turned it into something completely different than what it was originally

And I think you’re really really going to like that especially because a lot of you have been requesting French country decor recently and I want to get working on some of that French country stuff for you so would you rather see flips for my booth or flips for decorating your house

Okay I finished at that Goodwill I got a few good things I still feel like I kind of overspent on some things but I need to make sure that I have some stock for my shop um actually things are going pretty slow selling right now in my shop

But it’s good to have some some back stock just ready to go there was a plate in there that you might recognize from a past video that I did it didn’t have a price on it when I saw it the last time I shopped in here so I asked them up at

The counter if um or what the price would be and they they told me5 .99 Ricky they told me $5.99 for a plate and I said okay you can keep it and then here baby here’s some gummies and then today I saw it in there priced at

$3.99 and it was the color of the week so it was half off so ha time for the second Goodwill store this Goodwill store is Hit or Miss sometimes it has a ton of really good stuff and it’s generally pretty okay price IID say it’s kind of in the middle sometimes there’s

Things that are way too expensive like that and this or sometimes there’s things that are really affordably priced and I did get quite a few things from here when I did this trip and this is in a more expensive area so Houston has a lot of pocket areas where there’s very

Wealthy neighborhoods and this is really close by to one of those very wealthy neighborhoods so you tend to find some more high-end things there this is actually where I found that $316 concrete bowl full of moss and I ended up spending I think like $6.99 for

It or something like that but stuff like that can be found at this Goodwill and they also tend to have some pretty good Furniture here um it’s not priced well enough for me to resell it but it is priced well if you’re somebody who actually needs some secondhand furniture

So look in those super wealthy neighborhoods if you have any near you Houston has a lot of those random super wealthy neighborhoods just cuz the economy here is crazy but let’s go on to the next Goodwill store this is Goodwill store number three and this one is in an

Area that is very um I would say maybe upper middle class if I had to guess and this is my favorite one to go to they’re usually the best priced of all the ones that I went to today and they usually have a pretty good selection of stuff

Although I have to say recently all the Goodwills I’ve been shopping at have really limited merchandise there’s not a whole lot that they have out for some reason I don’t know why cuz I know they’re getting tons of donations right now with the spring cleaning fever everybody’s got but there’s a lot of

Really cute stuff here also at this location I really like the people who work here they are fun they laugh together they’re very nice and I think that they do a good job of making everybody feel comfortable shopping at this location and just that right there

Is worth it for me to shop here because of the people that are there they’re great and I did find some cool stuff for some reason I was on like a coffee cup binge today buying tons of coffee cups I don’t know what it was I just buy what I

Think um will sell instinctively in my gut and those were things that I thought were going to sell this little canister thing I thought was really cool but I really I just went crazy with the coffee cups today I don’t I I just guess there was a

Lot of really cool ones in there I normally never buy it I also bought myself a pull-up bar because my husband and I are trying to get in shape then it is time for the hall you guys are going to love this okay so it is the next day

And I apologize for the background noise we live in a neighborhood now instead of out in the country so somebody is leaf blowing right now I don’t know if you can hear it or not but we’ll find out when I’m editing the video but anyway I

Want to show you all the amazing stuff that I got I completely filled my entire trunk and we also today picked up this beautiful Hutch my neighbor’s daughter was getting a new Hutch that my neighbor painted for her daughter we took it from my neighbor’s house into a different

City to deliver it to them because they didn’t have a truck and then as uh thank you for doing that they gave us this Hutch and so we took this Hutch home I’m not really sure what I’m going to do to it give me some ideas in the comments

Section down below I’m thinking that you can see on this side the tops of the cabinets here are a little bit outdated and they do um tend to look outdated it even painted so I’m thinking of doing a painting uh technique where we paint the inset part a different color and kind of

Distress it and make it look French country or French presential provintial so I think that would look well or go really well with this I guess I just can’t talk today but I think this would look good French provential and I did do a French provential Hutch already that I’m going

To be showing you next time I have my video out on Sunday so the the first item I want to show you is this clock right here if it looks backwards it’s just because my camera is flipped but I don’t know if it works I thought it was

Really unique it has a metal detail on here and distressed white wood very cute let’s see I don’t see um it kind of does look like a Hobby Lobby tag but it doesn’t say Hobby Lobby on it so I don’t know don’t know where this one came from maybe HomeGoods or

Something but it I think it’ll look really cool I just need to put a battery in there and see if it works my next item is this literally brand new probably from Walmart basket the liner is a little bit dirty from probably just from being at the bins and then I also

Found this cute little lavender which I have an idea for what I’m going to use it for in the future video next items are these candle holders I believe they came from Kohl’s yep originally the larger L one was $24.99 and the smaller one was $19.99 and I got them for $2.99 a

Piece they are brown with kind of like a hammered metal finish and I think I’ll probably leave them as is and maybe um add a wooden tray to the top what do you think next I got this really cute plate I love the cute traditional look that it has it says Butler’s Pantry

Gourmet by Lennox and it was $1.99 but blue was half off so a dollar this would go great on a candle holder as you probably already noticed in my shopping video I bought a boatload of coffee mugs this one I bought oh gosh it’s so bright

There we go this one I bought actually with my neighbor in mind let me turn my light down oh I just made it yellow man I’m not good with technology so this I bought for my neighbor I knew she would love it they were $1.99 a piece and I

Got a set of three of them I think she’s going to really like it same one again oh here’s a different one this one I thought would be really good for Valentine’s Day Decor or just spring Easter kind of has a little bit of an Easter egg Vibe speckly pink cute pastel

And this one was 9 cents I got two of these cuties these were 9 cents a piece this was like ripped off so they got the price from the other one there they are very cute and cottagey would go with anybody’s Decor look at my hair this next thing I wasn’t

Really sure about but I had bought something else I thought would go great on this it’s the base to something it was $2.99 which I think was kind of overpriced for a broken base on something but I mean they got me I still bought it so I’m I’m going to put a

Glass vase on here and glue it on there I think it’ll look really pretty and it’ll be a fun DIY now I have this Croc right here was 19.99 it’s kind of like a corning wear oh it is Corning wear wooden J can you see it it’s backwards but it say Corning

Wear needs to be cleaned and then I will put it in my booth next I got this eil from Hobby Lobby it says but this I got out of the bins and I could use these in my booth or at home for all sorts of

Decor I got this which I think is a picture frame it is from the design house I don’t know I’ve never heard of that but it’s like a trifold thing I just need to reattach the third door but I thought that was unique pretty cool and I think it’s something

That doesn’t really go out of style I don’t know what I don’t know what this is called but they’re something nautical and really cute and I’ve always wanted one if you know what these are called let me know in the comment section but it’s a birdhouse it looks

Like I don’t know honestly I don’t know I’m gonna have to figure out a way to clean the inside too oh my gosh I didn’t know this this is from anthropology wow look at me anthropology 24.95 on clearance what maybe I have to keep it just to say I have one item from

Anthropology in my house all right you can never get enough of these silver coffee pots this actually wasn’t closing when I first got it but my husband bent it for me and made it so I could close again recently I saw um what is her name Natalie from vintage porch on Instagram

She turned this into a lamp isn’t that a cute idea I don’t know if I’ll do that but I think I am going to shine it up isn’t it so pretty great condition look at how silver the inside is so if I can shine it up to look like that that’s

Going to be cool I don’t know where this one is from but it’s massive and super cool and I actually have another massive candle stand that is like four three three feet tall maybe that would go really well with this but it’s got a distressed finish to it and I really

Want to keep it because it’s so wellmade super great solid wood it says this item has been made and finished by hand by the finest Craftsmen each piece is unique and may have individual characteristics that will add charm to your home well isn’t that the truth it’s

So pretty I got this faux Fern Dusty a little bit but I got this for 6.99 kind of a lot for something at Goodwill I usually try and stick to like 3.99 below but it’s great quality and I might keep this one actually I’m supposed to be making money

Here and I just keep keeping all these things but anyway it’s a great heavy quality plant I don’t know where it came from no um brand or anything on it but look at how realistic it looks major score still I think another piece that I’m going to keep a turkey

Platter I have been looking for a turkey platter since like August last year this one was $6.99 also since I’m not reselling it I’m okay with that price because these when you try and buy them anywhere just anywhere um they’re like 30 to 40 50 bucks so the brand is called

Gibson and it is dishwasher safe and oven safe hello look at how perfect it is excellent condition I love how it has that kind of a handmade look to it this is kind of unique and I’m not sure if it’ll sell but it just seemed really

Cool to me it was $1.99 and it says Long Island New York container made in England wait designed what designed by d a h r dar dar how do you pronounce that is it like a cookie tin or something I don’t know but I way I just

Thought it was really cool and it would look cool on a shelf hopefully somebody sees this and sees how cool it is like I did look at that and these are like 3D another cute coffee mug this one has little daisies on it and then the inside is like an

Orangey yeah pretty orangey color kind of coral this will go in the booth and it was $1.99 this little cute pot it is referred to as a stew pot or a Soup pot and I know that because the cashier at Goodwill asked me what in the world this

Was and I said I don’t actually know I just think it’s cute and I thought that it was like a individual um like individual serving size for if you’re making like small casser rolls or something I I had no idea but Google search said that this

Was called a stew pot so if you were wondering this is called a stew pot and this will be going in my booth this kind of goes along the same style oh I forgot to tell you how much that cost hold on it was $1.99 this kind of goes along with that

Same style it’s got the brown handle the beautiful speckled finish in here and this was a $1.99 for a pretty coffee mug I know somebody’s going to love this and it’s going to be somebody who loves indoor plants I just already know I can just I sense it speaking of somebody who

Has indoor plants I think that they would also like like these mugs I got a set of eight and they were 9 cents a piece let’s find out who the maker is B Au u m bomb I don’t know anything about that but they have a cute speckled finish and

Every one of them is a little bit different than the other and I have a set of eight this is from 1948 and it is a mall needle work knitting crochet and Home Decorating magazine originally was 35 summer 1948 and look at how big the magazines were this is really

Massive yeah magazines are not that big anymore but it’s beautiful and it has really beautiful images inside and I have a second one that was Winter 1948 to 49 same stuff on there but come on how cool I thought this would be cool to frame certain

Images in there look at this hold on hold on I ripped it even a child can do it how fun now you can make this quilt press flower pictures oh this is my kind of magazine if I was around back then I’d have been reading this hands

Down but I don’t know what kind of images I’ll find in here I just saw it and grabbed it because they’re 50 cents a piece and it’s just super cool look at these beautiful women so classy making up their own clothes we don’t do that anymore I

Always feel like where did those skills go I wish we still had those skills the next big heavy box let’s see what’s in here I think I know what it is this is a cute little bunny frck that was $2.99 this is great for spring and um and motorcycles and it came

From gift or gift craft I don’t know don’t know where it came from but I just thought it’d be cute for spring or Easter this was my baby’s favorite thing I bought she is really into colors right now this one was $1.99 and it has an adorable weave pattern on there but she

Just kept saying yellow yellow the whole time and holding it and I thought for sure she was going to break it but she didn’t and this is absolutely perfect to go with all my lemon stuff it’s from Bath & Body Works man I’m finding a lot

Of Bath & Body Works stuff but really adorable super adorable these are my favorite mugs that I found look at how adorable it is a cornflower blue color if you can’t tell on camera it’s actually not as vibrant blue as it’s showing up on camera in real life

So absolutely cute it’s from the at home store I might have to keep these I don’t know we’re going to find out I have a story about these and I’m really sorry about how crazy my hair looks because every time I’m bending over and coming

Back up my hair is like woo okay but two of them were $2.99 and one of them was $1.99 so whoever priced the1 199 cup were friends whoever priced the 2.99 cups bring it down bring it down $3 really but anyway when I got to the register they at first weren’t going to

Price match them all three with the 19.99 and there was a fourth one in the store but it had a big chip in it so I didn’t get it but um finally a manager came out and she was okay with it so they changed the price for me to all

Three of them being $1.99 each and I love that scalloped Edge that it has kind of reminds me of like a tulip but in a p powder blue oh it’s gorgeous I imagine those would look really pretty on a mug rack which I also bought I’ll

Show you later I have two Pottery Barn plates I actually had a set of five of these um the bigger ones though these are kind of like the medium plates they’re not like the the little bread what are they call those bread and butter plates or something I don’t know

The smaller ones this is like a medium one in between and they were $1.99 a piece Pottery Barn I don’t know if you can see Pottery Barn take my word for it do you remember in my last haul I got smaller versions of these plates well the bigger versions were on sale half

Off so these were $2.99 so $150 and I thought these would look good on anything or by themselves they’re just absolutely beautiful the color is to die for I love it do look really pretty hanging on the wall too now this doesn’t this remind you of a Waverly pattern let’s see what it

Says not food safe okay um Toyo designed by Raymond weights never heard of it 3.99 half off this was the plate I had wanted a while ago and I went up to ask for the price because there was no sticker on it and they were like yeah

$5.99 and I was like yeah no you can have it I don’t want it by 99 for one plate no so they kept it and I checked out with all the rest of my stuff and then when I went back and saw it there it was

$3.99 so kind of weird that they told me $5.99 and then marked it 3.99 don’t know what that’s about I had somebody comment saying that they worked at Goodwill and they said that for them I guess just maybe it’s just their store but they used to um give a really big price to

Somebody who said oh there’s ‘s no price on it because they blamed that person for removing the sticker in order to get a better deal well I don’t remove the stickers in the store so I remove them at home after I paid for them so I don’t know if

That’s why they gave me the big price maybe all Goodwills think that people are just being scam artists but I was not and this time I got it for half off of four bucks so $2 which is what I would have paid the first day I would

Have paid $1.99 or $2.99 for this the first day first thing is I have this kitchen conversions little thing it’s probably from Hobby Lobby yep Hobby Lobby but it was 199 it has a little bit of a scratch on the top so I’ll probably distress the whole thing so that it

Looks like it’s supposed to be that way and I might keep this or I might sell this I don’t know this cute copper bin I thought was adorable with this diamond pattern on it it is from Ashland which I believe is a Michaels brand and I got it for $2.99 I

Have a whole copper section in my booth usually and that stuff sells pretty quickly so I need to fill in some more copper stuff and I thought this would be pretty good okay so this basket was from Goodwill for $2.99 or maybe I got at the

Bins and it already had I don’t even remember which store I got this from but this was in really great shape I love the little handles on there and it’s kind of dainty and unique looking this basket was $2.99 also and I think this would look pretty painted so I’m going

To be painting this in an eastery color should I do pink should I do purple should I do a minty green should I do a light yellow let me know in the comments section what color screams Easter to you now I have this box which I should have

Asked for a separate price for but I was too lazy to dig it out of my cart inside this box is all the glass stuff that I got from the bins that was not broken I mean I should have got a lottery ticket that day but I don’t know what what I’m

Going to do with these I’m just starting to collect them now apparently and um I was amazed that they didn’t break and I even bumped it in my car and thought I was going to break it in my carart and it didn’t break so these are really

Incredibly made this is kind of what I was thinking would go good on that stand it’s just small oh my goodness look at it looks so silly but something like this on here I think would look really cute and then I have a medium and an extra large

One I really don’t know what I’m going to do with these when it comes to the bins I normally would say just stay away from stuffed animals but these looked brand spanking new like never even been played with once but I will wash them thoroughly in my washing machine look at the sparkly

Hands my baby loves Sparkles and anything pink she’s just born that way look at me I look like I look like I’m one of them right now but she also likes frogs she thinks they’re silly and I thought this would be something she’d really like to get for Valentine’s Day

So these are for my little ones for Valentine’s Day and I don’t they were so lightweight I probably paid maybe a dollar for all three of them this is one of my favorite things that I got so I’m G have a really hard time not keeping it it is let’s see where it’s

From H it doesn’t say but it was $6.99 and the scalloped edges just they’re so cute I really want to keep this one it could be used for anything your coffee station you put your coffee maker in here with your extra coffee stuff in there also there’s so many things you

Can do with a cute scalloped tray some more Greenery this is a bunch of faux indoor plants and I will use these probably outdoors in my garden since I don’t want to water plants in the middle of a drought when it’s five bajillion degrees outside and 1 million per

Humidity so faked plants are my friend here in Houston this little cutie I thought was perfect for spring and it’s from Target says threshold $5 so it’s in the dollar spot but I actually got it for like a dollar so technically the bins is like the dollar spot for me

Because it’s like dollar dollar dollar of all these really lightweight things this I got from the bins as well such a wonderful painting and it’s signed by Fay 1979 really incredibly talented whoever did this I find lots of really talented painters here in Texas and it’s so sad

To see it thrown away at a Goodwill in a Goodwill bins even it actually has an old Goodwill price on it and so that to me shows that somebody bought it out of Goodwill and then didn’t use it and gave it away and then Goodwill just had it

Took get straight to a bins but I got this I’m guessing I probably by the weight I probably spent about $2 for it and it was priced $3.99 at a Goodwill a long time ago so I’m definitely going to try and find a frame this size and frame

It before I sell it this I thought was really adorable I’m gonna I’m GNA guess it’s from Hobby Lobby although there’s no tag yeah it doesn’t have a tag but it says gather together although I think I’m going to sand that off and put something like Garden on there

Because I just think that would work better for the season right now and it just looks a little too hard to read here’s a piece that’s ready to go as is it says French market number three adorable in a million different ways and in perfect condition just needs a wipe

Down that’ll go straight to the booth this appears to be something that somebody bought from an antique mall because it has a price on it as though it were priced in a booth $10 and it’s gorgeous it’s a wild Lupine which is funny because wild lopine grows here but

It also Grows Where we’re from in Arizona and they would grow in our yard when we lived out in the country and they’re beautiful like real short flowers I’ll say they’re about this tall but I thought this would look really pretty once I get to do my faux painting

Texture on there and put it into a nice frame this goes really well with that same floral print and it has a beautiful frame on it as well the brand is uttermost and this is just ready to go I’ll just clean it with some Windex maybe make the frame a little more

Gold here is another one that was a matching um piece the matching pair to the one I just showed you and it is a nsty I can’t even say what that flower is here here is one of my other favorites from this haul a copper

Heart look at how cute it is and it’s heavy but it’s meant to hang on the wall and just be a copper heart on the wall this is the most unique Valentine’s Day Decor that I could possibly think of how awesome and it’ll go great with all my

Copper stuff in my booth here’s another probably Hobby Lobby picture frame that I think is really unique it would look good as a background to stuff in my booth and uh once it sells that’s cool too but it’ll make my booth look prettier while it’s there okay so here’s

A mirror I can’t really show it to you because it’s just going to reflect the camera back at you but it has a shelf on it and there’s no oh here we go it was from Colombia frame Inc I don’t know but it’s great and it’s especially awesome

For right now when it’s about to be gardening time Springtime and I got this at the bins this painting is phenomenally beautiful the detail in it up close is breathtaking I love it it’s a print but man is it a good print the frame is gorgeous I think this will sell quickly

But now that I’ve said that it’s probably never going to sell because I jinxed myself but I hope it does because somebody can really enjoy a beautiful painting like that here’s a little bird cage um it’s a little bit too shiny and new looking for me so I think I’m going

To just like Spritz it with some maybe some tan colored paint I’m not sure but I do want to make it appear a little older and maybe add some um of my Greenery inside there that would be great garden decor isn’t this just the most homey sweet thing you’ve

Ever seen it says home is where the heart is beautiful cross stitch I got this galvanized pot and it has a really cute um what is is that a b okay it kind of looks like a wasp but I’m going to say it’s a b because wasps are evil and bees are cute

But this is cool I’m just going to clean it up and put it in my booth I might put a fake arrangement in there too I don’t know and then this also going to my booth it’s vintage and it’s from Georgia here’s a galvanized pot that has a liner

In it for an actual plant and I also got some Greenery that was just floating around in the bins and this might even look good in here if I arrange it right I think it’s cute I love purple and yellow flowers together and then this I boxwood I guess you

Would call it is classic you can use it with anything this wooden cup or Bowl it looks like a mortar and pestl but it’s missing the mortar would that be the mortar is this the pestl what’s missing the thing yeah but um I’m going to have to sand the name

Off the bottom here and oil it up and then I’ll sell it just as a decorative little wooden thing these galvanized bins are brand spanking new from Walmart and these are great for plants or for drinks when you’re having a party and I’m probably going to keep these because

They’re a little pricey to buy new this I bought from the pained Tre where my store is at so there is a couple other Home Decor booths that are in the painted tree and there’s one in particular called like Hill Forest Co I think I think

That’s what it’s called and I love their stuff in there and this was one of the things that was in there it was for 12 bucks these tulip wreaths are very expensive to make on your own because just picture like every little spot is like $3 or $43.99 so like two three four

Five You’ end up spending like 30 bucks to make it yourself and then it has a nice wreath form to it here’s a nice wooden frame that I think would work for one of those prints that I’ve picked up lately maybe that floral print will fit

Nicely in here and I will paint it out in probably a distressed white finish or maybe I can make it gold or maybe green I don’t know we’ll see what the mood decides when I go to do it this Frame is gorgeous I love the blue on it and the

Distressed that’s wood with distressed blue paint over it this is going to look great with any kind of print inside it and I bought book it is a book of all the Botanicals that you can dream of that are beautiful and it has amazing illustrations in it well the book was

Like 20 bucks or something like that but I can fill like 300 frames with that book so that’s something to think about when you are um a person who flips and has a booth getting frames and putting those beautiful Botanical prints in them is a really coste effective way to have some

Smalls in your booth that can change out for the seasons or be for for all your round Decor this is something I picked up from the bins and it’s in perfect condition it’s pretty clean actually I’ll probably just disinfect it but I think this would look really pretty on

The dining table underneath that um really expensive um what would you call that thing that big heavy bowl that had the moss inside it if you haven’t seen that yet I found at Goodwill a 300 and something $316 big heavy concrete bowl of moss and this would look good underneath it I

Know I just got a mug rck from the bins but I couldn’t help myself and I had to get this one I feel like I’m living out my dreams of all the Farmhouse things that I wanted when they were new that I couldn’t afford and now that they’re

Cheap and being thrown away I’m like yay I get to have all these amazing things that used to be really expensive and it makes me feel happy so it makes me happy let me do it but anyway this was 10 bucks and I think that’s a fair price

For this mug rck consum considering it was probably around 20 new so that’s fair I think for sure when you’re selling used you should at least consider selling it for half of what it was new I think that’s just fair to do you can never have too many wooden

Checker boards and this has a whatever this game is called on the back and this will go in my booth as a background I feel like my whole Booth background is going to turn out to be a bunch of Checker boards at this point but people like Checker everything right now so

Even if they don’t buy it it’ll draw their eyes in at least this purse I got from the bins is is I think Universal thread brand they were trying to sell it at Goodwill for $19.99 and it did not sell yeah here we go Universal thread so this

Target bag was probably a good 40 bucks new and I like that it has the three dividers and it is literally like new like there’s hardly even a speck of dust inside this bag and this is going to make a really great diaper bag for me something else I’ve heard is that people

Find money inside purses so if you’re going to the Goodwill bins or Goodwill in general check all those zipper Pockets look all up in there and see if somebody forgot there5 $10 in there and you can go get yourself a free Starbucks last but not least this is a

Crate and Barrel wooden serving dish definitely needs to be cleaned up and you know maybe giv some oil on there but I found anthropology I found Crate and Barrel and I found Pottery Barn in one Hall I can hardly stand here now because there’s so much stuff on the floor but I

Think I spent around $150 for everything the first day at the Goodwill bins I only spent $6 and got quite a bit of stuff I just got hooked up they um I don’t know how they charged me only $6 but she just gave me she was

Like six bucks even and I was like cool you betcha and then the next day I went was 78 and then that day I did a bunch of different Goodwill stores and each time it was like $20 $30 so I’m guessing I spent around $150 total for all of this

Stuff which I’m hoping that I can double or triple through selling in my booth or at least double and then keep stuff that I want to keep and it covers the cost of what I wanted to keep somebody commented on my video the other day saying that PE people who are flippers

Um NE we never keep anything we just borrow it until we’re ready to sell it and I think that is so me I decorate with new stuff all the time and then just sell my other stuff and it’s like I can never just stop decorating so I always get something new

And then sell the other thing and so I guess I was just meant to have a resale Booth because how else would I be selling all this stuff and redecorating it and getting away with it because I couldn’t afford to do that otherwise if I wasn’t

Selling it it so if you’re somebody like me who has to constantly redecorate maybe you can consider reselling in some kind of way maybe at going to um antique markets or craft fairs or whatever it may be and reselling and buy used because if you buy new and then resell

You’re going to lose half the value of what you spent if you buy used and resell you’ll get your money right back so something to consider here we go oh gosh up and over up and over up and over oh God there we go okay it’s like Christmas I’m like unwrapping

It oh hello there I didn’t see you there I’m just kidding so my microphone still on okay I just want to keep everything also or no that wasn’t from the vents I don’t know what I’m saying my brain all right this is not from the bins either this is something else that I

Picked up from the booth or from the from the booth if you got this far in the video I want to tell you from the bottom of my heart that I am so thankful that you are here to support our Channel and I hope you have a wonderful day I’ll see you

Next time bye

  1. Do you guys understand why price our going up in these thrift stores because of the ones who buy it all and then flip it to sale and give the prices, it hurts the ones who can't shop anywhere else, i don't mind people making money but they shouldn't air it how much they will make off it, these thrift stores are watching and are starting to price accordingly, you are hurting the poor

  2. Thrift stores have raised prices as so much demand for flipping and resale. I love reusing, repurposing and such for my life! Heck, I haven't bought "NEW" jeans in years, that's how I budget for kids stuff. Love your ideas

  3. I am new to setting up a booth, and new to following you. I never make requests for help, I just sit back and learn from all you amazing people who are brave and get on YouTube and share your talent. Now that I have said all that. I would love to see you set up your booth. Thank you for all your time. Prayers for your husband's studies.

  4. Love all your newer content and thanks for the extra at the end with the mistakes..your the sweetest human! Congrats on your new business.

  5. Watching replay. Love those flying geese! And your Oliso ♥️ so pretty! Had a good chuckle when you spotted your bras. 😆 Safe travels Robin!

  6. I love that painting with the church and bluebonnets. I lived in on Ft Hood, Texas in 1988 & 1989. Do you ship to Kansas?

  7. Wow you got some really good stuff! I love watching you redo stuff to sell in your booth!

  8. I'd really like to you show thrift flips before you show the styling videos. I also still like farmhouse/cottage style as well as french country, While others are showing French country it is frequently much fancier style rather than the actual country French styling that I truly love, I've followed you for a long time now and have always loved how you flipped things and I'm hoping you don't change that drastically. You really found some amazing things when thrifting in this video and I'm truly amazed to see all of it because those types of things are very rarely ever found in the Lubbock area, and the prices here are absolutely ridiculous.

  9. Another idea for the china cabinet you were given is separating the 2 pieces, then putting legs on that upper piece and turning it int a beautiful, glass doored bookshelf. The ones I've seen done got pretty legs they resulted in beautiful pieces of furniture that could be used in many different rooms/settings.

  10. You have amazing instincts. Or an eye. I’d love to see what you do with stuff to resell it first, then how to decorate with upcycled thrift items.

  11. I love the way you felt so justified finding the expensive plate that wasn't priced. Found out the price, said no, then later you got it at the lower price it should have been plus 1/2 off! 😁❤So, Ha!❤😁
    Coffee cups are definitely my weakness too! I can usually find them for under a dollar each. I sold a very collectible one for $95!
    Just found your channel, will be your newest sub. You're doing great, you are a natural!!

  12. I have one of those little brown pots. When I got it the ads on TV said it was an egg cooker for the microwave. That's why I got mine.

  13. I just found you and I'm going to watch some more for sure. I do have one remark. There is a southern artist named Paula Vaughn. She is very popular. I saw you look at 2 framed prints of hers while at the bins. She is loved by Southern women, so maybe they might sell in your booth. I would like to see you decorate. 😊
