Goodwill needs to calm down. Seriously!! They are pricing DONATED products barely under "new" prices. All of the ones within miles of me (with the exception of 1, right now, near me) have priced me out of their stores. BUT...I have discovered multiple thrift stores I never knew about, and some that are new to our area. Their prices are still in a good range AND I would rather support the small "mom & pop" shops any day!! Goodwill is getting really, really greedy. Sad.

Yes but Goodwill is committed to employment of those with disabilities. I do still see the trend upwards in price with them.

Yes it was. I was wondering why I didn't see it in her basket

When I kids were small I always had a Valentine Tea Party. We had it at night, I put candles on the table, bought cute heart shaped plates, napkins. I used regular cups & saucers and made cute finger foods, heart shaped cookies/cupcakes. I had 2 boys and a girl. The boys acted liked they hated it, slurped their tea loudly. But I know they enjoyed it and it gave them special memories You should try it w/your family, a special time. I mean my kids were sm. about 3&4. They are never too young and I kept it up. No one does a tea party. I do it now w/my Bible study ladies and my granddaughters. You will never be sorry if you do one. My husband even enjoyed it. A special time to show how much you love them!

This sounds so special!! I love the idea so much 🥰 Thank you!

"Definately don't need anymore baskets" ...adds basket to cart. 😂😂😂 SO me!!

I appreciate your quiet disposition, the pretty back ground music, and that you don't make us dizzy in filming. Thank you. ✝️❤️🌍👑

Your style seems more vintage than antique. You seem to love all the stuff that was so common when I was growing up in the 60's/70's. It's wierd how trends come back around again.

Beautifully put together. Love the music , and special touch of the Bible verse.

Btw, Salvation Army near me has different sales on different days. In fact, our store has 50% off for seniors, another day, 25% off furniture, and then 50% off anything in the store except furniture. Ask at the desk. Happy shopping.

Our Goodwill (actually several in our area) on the West Coast of FL have gotten so much junkier and more expensive- such a bummer! When we moved here they were tidy and organized with fair prices. Not sure what has happened! That ruffled table cloth is beautiful and such a great find! Love that basket, too! Thrifting is so much fun!

So I had in my stash probably for 20 years an old wooden frame that had the rail for a plate like a plate rail so I just decided to paint it black and then sand it to give it some texture and it is beautiful but I just painted my dining room white and the trim is black but only the facing of the trim, but it sure looks beautiful that and then my accent color is greenso I will be hanging up that shelf soon. Something that I’ve had for like 20 years brought it back to life.

Love watching ou thrift and then style with the things you find. The swirly stand you pulled off the top shelf is a cupcake stand. Great for party’s.

I love Salvation Army. Great haul. Love that Bible Verse.

You passed on the white Fenton glass when you grabbed the milk glass. I would have bought both. The Fenton glass with the clear rippled edge is a great find

What an awesome trip and haul I squealed when I saw a couple of things 😂 My fave this trip was the gold pic frames, 2 gold baskets, fabrics and milk glass basket (my grandmother had one of those always thought it was so beautiful as a child) thanks for taking us along. I hope you have a blessed weekend. 💕

Hi from Australia Elizabeth, new subscriber, I love vintage styling and I must say you have a beutiful home and channel one of the best I have seen, I am binge watching 🙋‍♀️👌

That squirley metal thing is a cupcake display holder. The tablecloth was perfect and oval frames look great on your wall. I think my favorite was the white basket.. you just are so intentional where you put things which makes everything so beautiful…like you..beautiful ❤

Ohhh wow you really had A great thrift day.. If only I could have been there in person i would have REALLY enjoyed lol😄 You totally scored some awesome pieces! I collect the milk glass, especially hobnail and that piece was gorgeous! Love the little basket, i have a few of those, we get them in at our thrift store pretty often so I've grabbed a few😉 And i love picking up the shelves too, can't go wrong with those. I especially loved those 3 little ceramic pictures..and that gingerbread pan was just adorable! Yup great finds!!

Elizabeth, you found so many really nice pieces. I love the little gold baskets that you use as ornaments. The blue and white dishes and the milk glass are beautiful

Elizabeth that thing you didn’t know what it was was a cupcake stand. I have one I used to use when my grandkids were little.

Elizabeth, you sure did score big time! Only thrift store close to me is a Goodwill. So overpriced and I rarely ever find anything I’m looking for. Glad I found your channel. First video I watched was your Christmas house tour. So beautiful!❤️

You have such a gift for decorating your home so beautifully, I wish you could decorate mine! Do you have any recommendations for what you look for for your style home and decor?

I think now the Goodwills and Salvation Army price their stuff so that they get their desired bottom dollar price when they have the 50% off sales. Your stores are so big and full of stuff! You have a good eye for finding things that I would pass on, but you definitely seem to have a way of making them look so much more desirable! I Love your idea of using the little gold finish flat baskets as ornaments.😮 I love using things in non-traditional ways. The red/white table runner would have been pretty for valentines and Fourth of July decor. It wouldn’t go with placemats you got though for valentines, but maybe in another area. I just love to see how you decorate and I love your home!

I think the metal tiered piece is a cupcake stand. You got some really cute items.

You found some great treasures. The prices at your Goodwill seemed quite good, too. Goodwill stores where I live would have charged double for those items. They are quite pricey here. Thanks for taking us along today.

Oh my gosh what great things you found. I love them all. 😊🇨🇦.

You found some great fines...love your collections, it's so much fun thrifting.

Always think it's funny when I see things on the shelves/racks that I've donated. Your local Goodwill is so well stocked and organized...wish MINE was...lol. Great video!

At 7:02 that is a very sellable basket. What I do is give it an all over coat of thinned down bull's eye yellow shellac and it looks like a museum piece.

That was a lovely tour. Elizabeth and your coordination in your home is beautiful how you put everything together so well. Thank you for sharing Diane Australia❤❤

Love your videos-thanks for taking us along! The red and white runner would have been perfect not only for Christmas but for Valentines day!

You styled everyone of your new pieces just perfectly and I love the music you inserted just at the right time! I especially liked the place mats. Continued Blessings!

dont need anymore baskets...puts the next basket in your cart. lol! I do the exact same thing. I cant help it. I like to think that I'm saving for a huge wall shelf display of baskets showcasing all the beautiful ones I've found or they always come in handy for storage.

I swear I've seen that little ironstone sugar and creamer on just about every thrift video I've watched lately. They must have made a gazillion of them. What's funny is that I have them and the entire set of plates, cups, saucers and bowls. They were my mother's.

You got a lot of gems! Mostly all my style too.

I live the plates and the turkey platter. I want one now. You got me thinking of that vase. It was pretty, I don't really use vases but I probably would have gotten it. I liked the first milk glass item you had. Great haul, now I'm in a thrify mood. 😅
