The wooden piece you thought was a bird house was actually a butterfly house. Vertical slits give it away. Nice door in back to add food to entice them and then to clean out. Hope that helps!

The piece of wrapped candy would look cute in a valentine display. You could tie like the red and white twine on each end. It would look cute. Or even on tiered tray. Also could be used in a Christmas display for those people that decorate in a gingerbread or candy theme Christmas display. Just an idea or two. Thanks for taking us shopping with us.

Hi! Thrifters! I went today to 3 Goodwill 's I I loved every minute of it! It was so much fun! I only spent 50 dollars! I even got a antique! And paid 66 cents for it it was the color of the day! I'm going to another tomorrow! Watch out for me I'm on a roll!! Take care and God bless you and your family! "D" Tidwell

That wicker birdhouse for 10.00 is for Butterflies. But hornets can also make a home in the same house. Good thing you put it back.

Anyone who collects art glass would want the candy

I had a butterfly house with slots like that.Thanks for sharing

That student pottery with the green and yellow was right up my alley,I don’t think I could have left it behind. ♥️

I’m also drawn to color! Thrifting is one of my favorite past times! I’ve shared several videos myself. It’s nice to see others enjoying finding “new” treasures as much as me! 😊👏🏽☀️

The blue and white angel was so cute

How chip- and crack-prone dishes are depends on the type of ceramic mostly. Earthenware and stoneware cracks easily. Real porcelain consists of finer materials and is burned at higher temperatures. Therefore it's a lot more durable. It's usually thinner and a little translucent. I'd never use stoneware items on an everyday basis but just as decoration. Those two porcelain plates with the cheese decor (2:20) were made in the factory I had my professional education at. Nice to see them again. The design might be outdated but they are so-called "German hard porcelain" and a good quality.

The round Covington dish did not come with a lid. I had the whole set in blue when I got married and kept that dish and the gravy boat and saucer. I use that round dish for dipping french toast and sometimes as a serving dish. The set was purchased through a grocery store promotion where they offered certain pieces each week for a few months. I really like it in the pink! They only had it in blue when I bought mine.

Johnson’s little teacup set ...cute!☕️

I love the greenwarw also. My grandparents had all that and they raised us from 8th grade on. I love the old glass. Choose what you like. There are those who want the same. Everyone has a story. Keep on and be safe.

I saw so many beautiful things in this store! I love that first set of china. I wish I knew who the maker is. I also loved the Johnson Bros. tea cup and saucers and sugar, creamer set. There were a stack of desert plates under the cup as well. That was a great find! The candle sticks were amazing as well. I can't wait to watch the haul!!!

That white cup with the man's face that you could've planted something that would've grown to look like hair was such a miss! I would have snatched that up in a second and bought it! That was so cool.

Anyone else see the yellow nesting bowls?....Drool, I would've jumped on those.

So many earth colors items I would love!

Nesting Haven - the plastic-wrapped, round, green platter with all the separate dishes on top that you asked about (13:30) is typical Mexican pottery used for serving all the salsas and such. The one you came across was not high quality or anything special. $15 may actually have been on the high side for that in a Goodwill... A quality piece would be signed, Talavera, and have much more refined painted details with possibly some raised elements like a paint dot - like you sometimes see on Lenox china for example.

I do...have a few of those "candy" pieces...looks nice as part of my dining table Christmas Décor.

I've seen glass candy decorations for the kitchen dinning or even coffee table with similar food items in a big bowl.

I have glass candies scattered on a white tray with candle holders and some other decor on my livingroom table. My candies are smaller and more colour full and I love the pop of colour they provide.

When you’re talking about putting gold rimmed dish in microwave as a no-no, right at that point in video, there’s a bowl with green rim and painted in bottom of bowl it looks like a vegetable with a face. Is that vintage? I love fruits and vegetables that are humanized....so many vintage card table cloths have humanized food. So funny.

The glass candy could be added to Christmas decor.

You made me laugh with the yellow purse.

The candy glass may be murano. My grandma always had a display at Christmas time. We had an open house Christmas as long as I could remember. Murano glass is still very desirable. One of my favorites. I am 52. Gram and gramp are gone now. I would buy a peice like that. Enjoy your show. Cali.

I hope you picked up the Flintstones record but thinking you got the Muppets. I really liked this store and can't wait to see the haul video. Thanks 😊

You know how many people would have bought those wooden pieces, highly collectable!

We have three Goodwill in a 15 mile radius. Norman Rockwell! Fiesta ware! Milk glass! Was surprised to see that you understood it. Look for milk glass lamps, rare. Glass wrapped candy--combine a few on a small clear plate or candy 🍬 dish.

Shopping at Goodwill you have to be very cautious. We have a goodwill here in Minnesota and I don't really go to it as things are priced so high for used items. Think that the good stuff goes towards staff first and what is left over goes on shelves. Its best to be cautious.

Love your video. Personally, I can't stand breaking up sets, unless something in the set is damaged to the point of no return. Buying the sugar and creamer away from an existing set? The horror!

The candy is used at Christmas time. Usually a bowl of them.

Just picked up that same milk glass vase at the Portsmouth ,NH Goodwill this week for $2.00. I would definitely have passed for $6.00. I think your glass wrapped candy was a paperweight. I have some of the smaller ones that are made by Murano. There are cheap imitations from China though. Jeffrey at Real Nifty Vintage has some of the small Murano ones as well. They are just pretty in a crystal bowl. So, yes, some people do like to decorate with wrapped glass candy pieces, lol !

Sometimes the glassware can be cleaned up with a bit of sandpaper. A finer grit and a little water ...perhaps 1000 grit or 1500 as a final touch. Ceramics ...?

the odd tear dropped shaped item with three slots may have been dispenser for ribbon or thread

It's a butterfly/ladybug house. It is good to attract and house beneficial insects and pollinators.
