Back in Colonial days, where we get what we call primitive decor, the pineapple was a symbol of welcome.

I knew you would get the snowflake for a peg rail. I loved the crystal angel & bell. That bonded cup & saucer would have been great to make a candle in.

On that dangling Santa thing you would say “look how adorable this little wall hanging is y’all!” ❤❤❤😊

Love it!!

I would have gotten that vintage Santa Boot!

Now that I'm retired, I'm actually in the kitchen, baking (doing pretty well controlling my anxiety attacks, thank goodness!), for gift giving to my retired nurse's out-to-lunch bunch, and my neighbors. At Thanksgiving, I dropped off tubs of red licorice to the police station & 3 fire stations in the Valley, so for Christmas, the trash collectors will get a tub to share (gotta watch for one of 3 trucks that make the run!), & I'll deliver one to the post office because my mail carrier can't carry one while delivering!---I envy you your energy, uff da, all that you've got going this season. I'm hoping to step up my game now that school is out & I'm off duty shuttling Granddaughters. Plus our winter rains have arrived, which ALWAYS energizes ME!

WOW JULIE!!! 😮❤❤❤❤❤

Pineapple is the sign of welcome to your home. I love the punch tin candle holders and they’re awesome for small prim Christmas trees! I wish we had Goodwill stores here, you find so many things and prices are really good. Love the snowman pewter tray! The little Santa boot would be cute holding bottle brush tree🌲. Fun thrifting trip, thank you❤

I am crazy, I thought they were little chunky angels….

For the Santa hanging sign you'd describe it as "primitive"

"That santa is precious!" -Julie

So many pretty things!

I have no idea where I would put this in my home decor, so I will leave it here and let someone else enjoy it😂😂

Julie coffee mugs are my weakness..I love the prices..here in Las Vegas you never find anything under 3.99.. And you would say “How adorable is this primitive Santa wall hanging piece..stayed tuned at the end to show you how I styled it in my home” 🥰

I love your Holly and Ivy plate ..classic❤

Love that little plate

Perfect little holly plate and multi purpose just as you like it! Displays perfectly on the shelf with the little reindeer with holly collars. See? Don’t worry about a dollar 29😅! You can barely but a candy bar for that amount nowadays!❤

Hello Julie. I love the Santa plate from Susan Winget. I am number #942 like on your Thriftmas18 video. I love the Snowflake tea light metal box. The plate is beautiful. Great finds. I hope you are feeling better. Blessings. 💝💖💝

*In a bygone era, pineapple 🍍 images were a sign of hospitality, Julie. 😊 Some people still use it as a symbol of hospitality when hosting a party or gathering.* *The holly plate is beautiful; I was hoping you would purchase it. The pattern on the plate closely resembles the holly and berries pattern on Lefton china, FYI. 🎄❤️🎍⚪️⛸️☃️*

Ok you would say.. I love this it's so primitive.❤

That punched tin pineapple item is so prim. Loved it.

I would have bought those vintage looking three 99 cent Santas to add to my collection. How cute!

Love how you styled the holly plate. It looks so cute with the tumbling reindeer.

Your tumbling reindeer are adorable!! Blessings Always

Love what you picked up. The dangelling Santa was so adorable. That's what you would say.❤

You would have said about the sign, "Look how primitive country this is." It's adorable.

Julie, I liked the idea of buying little craft kits for someone or other creative gift ideas.. We used to do a family dinner at Christmas and the highlight of our get together was BINGO! We would go through during the year and save things we no longer wanted or had thrifted for prizes. We displayed all of the things on long tables so people could see all the loot. We also would hit up Dollar tree for coloring books, crayons and candy for the kid prizes, it would get pretty competitive, also my family are BIG movie buffs so one of the most popular prizes were dvds....

My mom did the same as our family got bigger and bigger,... sisters got married and it became a super fun family game night. I've only done it once, three years ago (when my 4 mostly adult children's dad had just recently passed away and it was a hard time for all) and they had a such fun. I honestly had forgotten about it until your comment, so thank you! I will plan it again for next year, and start thrifting now.

I can't believe you didn't get the snowman platter. That was beautiful.

Hi Julie, so very glad to see you on the channel. I've been watching all the old shows and I am so glad this is a resent one. Hope you and your family are well.from Tennessee

The dangling santa thing..."look at this adorable piece. It's not exactly my style...a little more country than primitive, but still so cute"

Both pieces cute additions.like how the little reindeers have the holly like prints around their necks like the plate

Those 4 white deer are so cute.😊😊😊

As soon as you picked up the little snowflake tea light holder I said to myself I would buy that. It’s so cute.

Julie..this is my comment on video from Dec. 20th. 2023.sending my photo of spoon holder that I remade. Removed lower spoon holder piece..painted black and distressed it. It now holds some of my vintage wooden pieces.

Love your music play list. Fun shopping with you!

That santa boot was an old vintage one.

I am a huge sucker for Christmas stuff.

Thank you for taking us. Cute little plate. I'd go home with that too. 👍💕

That plate is so sweet. Could just be me,but I saw brownies or fudge sitting on it (if food safe ). I think Julie,would have liked the wooden sign but needed a lil sprucing up, like some new raffia. 🎄

The plate looks so pretty in your Christmas decor. Our Goodwills in Central Arizona never discount Christmas or seasonal items. They are exempt from the half off color tag of the week or the 20% off coupon. You’d think they would mark down the prices to move the items, but they don’t!

Thank you! And oh wow!

The container in front with the belll in it you should get it and have the grand kids watch the polar Express with them and then give it to them

I would have the best time digging through those bins. We just don't have anything like that. I have gotten where I go to the goodwill bins and find some vintage things.

That thing you said to describe I would call tacky Christmas. I love the plate

Hi Julie, Yeah! shopping trip so fun! Thank you. "The Santa hanging is adorable and very 80's country". I would hand picked up the window glass cube to add string lights. The tea light holder is vert sweet, Love the holly plate, so glad you picked it up.

Per google In some cultures, the pineapple is considered a symbol of hospitality, welcome, and good luck. Its spiky exterior additionally conveys a sense of protection. As it spread throughout Europe, the pineapple's exotic nature and rarity led to its association with good fortune. I love your plate. Great finds.

I just knew you would get the tin with the snowflake on it. Love the way you decorated with the Christmas plate too and that wooden piece with the dangling Santa’s, i think maybe you would say it is cute but not for me! 😉

If it was up to my family they would have me turn in tubs filled to Goodwill like the one that was full you were looking through

Love thrift store gifts ❤

That little plate goes with your little spreaders.. could be great together!!

I saw angels, not pineapples on the tin punch thing. Am I the only one? 😛

So many great Christmas mugs at your location ! To answer your question ; I think you’d remove the wooden Santa’s from the basic piece and style some other way ??? Love the snowflake tea candle holder. Love the plate options. And how you styled it all . ❤ Marilyn xx

Adorable and primitive

Primitive and country style

I have watch all of your videos and am enjoying what you do. I get really inspired to decorate after seeing what you have done in your home. You do a good job of videoing and showing not only what you buy but showing how you decorate with the items. Keep up the good work. I envy the Goodwill or Goodwill's in your area that you can go to. Mine have so much overpriced and I really don't think they have half the good stuff your's do. Can I ask, I am in San Antonio, what town or towns do you shop in? And is there more than one in each town? In San Antonio I have no idea how many stores there are. Oh, to answer a question you asked in this video, the wall or door hanger you picked up you asked what would you be saying? Well the first thing is, it's rustic, then maybe, it's vintage. Then it would be I think this is the kind of item I look for and would put in my home. I wish I could shop with you sometimes because of things you uncover but are not interested in are things I would love to have. I do enjoy your channel and look forward to continuing watching the rest of this seasons Thriftmas. Please have a wonderful Christmas with your family and a great New Year!!

love this

Sort of primitive but probably take the hanging Santa’s off.

👵💜

Be careful. Your lovely plate says not for food use, it's just for decoration

Some thrift stores are charging 10.00 a ton

Primitive and u love it?

I don’t know that my Goodwill will mark Christmas decor down after the holidays.

Yep. My Goodwill's have no sales and they never mark down anything. I honestly think they trash all the stuff after Christmas or maybe they ship it to another state that has "bins".
