hands – lifestyle gift & homewares store :- I don’t know if I’m going to be able to sell this because honestly look at that it’s gorgeous good morning everybody I am super excited about today’s episode and here is why I am a full-time vintage reseller and typically my episodes are very design based even though I’m going out thrifting for things for my online vintage shop I like to show them to you in more of a design setting and I like to style up all of my finds but I know that so many of you are also vintage
resellers so today’s episode is going to be a little bit different than normal we are going to hit as many thrift stores as we can in one day and we are going to be tallying up how much money we are spending and what the retail value of each individual item is and at the end of the day we are going to see how much profit we can make with all of our fines for one day I’m hoping to hit at least six to ten shops today the Pacific Northwest is an amazing place to find second-hand Treasures so we are going to hit the road and we are headed to Vancouver Washington foreign
this candle holder is a vintage Nasco Japan piece it is all hand painted and although it’s a little bit dirty I think it will clean up beautifully it is 2.99 with a retail value of around 28 dollars foreign this is a crystal Swedish candle holder and it’s kind of cool because it has the 1984 Olympic symbol on it it is only 5.

99 and this is worth around forty dollars okay now this just looks like a turned piece of wood it’s a little bit rustic it doesn’t have a price tag on it they ended up selling it for 99 cents and although the value might not be incredibly High I think it’s a really fun piece and we’re gonna get it today I think if I stage it right I could probably get around 18 for it this is a very interesting teapot it is 7.
99 and although it is not my style I know a lot of people collect Pottery by this artist Barb hartel I’ve seen her figural pieces sell for between fifty and a hundred dollars I think this is a really unique one and since I know people do collect her work I’m going to go ahead and value this at 75 these plates are red wing Greenwich Stone from 1964 and it has this kind of greenish yellowish swirl color to it and these typically sell for around fifteen dollars per plate on replacements.
com since we are not selling them on replacements.com but on my own independent website I’m going to go ahead and value the smaller plates at eight dollars per plate and the full-size dinner plates at ten dollars per plate there are seven of the smaller plates and eight of the larger plates this is a nice little piece of vintage stoneware Pottery it is only a dollar ninety nine and this is something that I would typically list in my shop for around eighteen dollars foreign set of four brass goblets these are adorable because they’re extra tiny so they are the perfect
amount for just a little shot of alcohol they are 1.99 each and I would expect to get around 28 dollars for the set of four this is such a fun mid-century costume necklace it is 7.99 and even though it is a costume piece it is not a designer piece it has such a fun dramatic classic mid-century design to it I should expect to be able to get about 75 dollars for this necklace thank you this piece of pottery is a little bit tempting but for 6.
99 I think we’re gonna pass on this we’ve got a long day of shopping ahead of us so I’m gonna try to be somewhat picky this is a fun little vintage bell it is a handmade Pottery piece it is only 3.99 and this is just not something that you come across every day I would place the retail value at a piece like this around 36 dollars handmade studio pottery always does incredibly well in my shop this is a beautiful neutral colored picture probably made in the 70s it is artist signed on the bottom it is 6.99 this is a picture I would expect to get around 48 dollars
for don’t forget to check and make sure there are not any cracks or chips when you buy things from Goodwill you never know so you’ve really gotta double check foreign this is a fantastic mid-century Italian leather wrapped decanter and these sell online for somewhere around 75 dollars it looks like there are two of them here at a 75 dollar value each 9.
99 is not a bad price to pay this pair is especially cool because they are mixed and matched and they’ve got roaring Lions on them thank you foreign here are some more brass goblets these are really heavy in fact these might actually be cast bronze they are 6.
99 each which is a little bit on the Steep side that’s 14 for the pair but these are very high quality made pieces so I’m thinking that I can probably get around 32 dollars for this pair and they’re absolutely gorgeous sometimes I buy things just because I love them I am freaking out in Goodwill right now if only you could see my face this is a piece by the artist Robert Sperry I always dreamed I would find a piece of his pottery and today is the day this is an incredibly valuable piece of pottery I know some of his Pottery can go upwards of a thousand dollars online I’ve got to do a little bit more research to find out the actual value
