Well here we are at my favorite Goodwill store the new and improved Goodwill store on the corner of 39th and Pen here in Oklahoma City I am shopping for specific things on my list as always anything that is Easter Bunny inspired uh always glasswear always um this is

New category for me things that speak to the blonde um the light colored wood in my kitchen and my floors that’s kind of a new cat not really into clothing shopping today we’ll kind of Breeze through to see if there’s anything um as always anything

That might be in blue and white um maybe maybe anything that might be kind of St Patrick’s Day inspired I’m not sure about that well let’s just say we are open we are open um open for business and open for ideas so what do you say Stuart let’s do

It now as I mentioned earlier and by the way it’s really crowded in here today so we’re going to be very very careful about not disturbing anyone but another uh another item that I mentioned earlier that I’ve added to my always look for list when I go to Goodwill and that is

Anything that’s in that blonde wood or kind of stripped wood tone that is in my kitchen and I see I’m in the kind of the wood in the basket aisle because I’m also looking as I mentioned for Easter baskets so obviously if I needed this this would

Be a candidate but I don’t need it now this this would fall into the category of I need this like a hole in the head however this would be great for four small pots of herbs that you could gift to somebody oh there’s a bottom on

I couldn’t see the B yeah and this is just this is just $3.99 Naturals natural Pine storage project um okay I’m going to be I’m going to think about this I’m definitely going to be thinking about this um while I’m thinking about it I’ll put it in my

Basket okay it’s Easter but nevertheless look at this cute Nutcracker okay this guy is just $3.99 and wouldn’t this look great you guys with all of my cutting boards at Christmas time okay this is a blend right in yes he’ll blend right in and and I like homogenous things this is a

Definite yes okay have I found anything for Easter yet no look it real quick okay isn’t he cute okay now I I don’t really need this but this is kind of this is kind of fun because I love this type of of artwork um in those tonal ranges cuz obviously I’m still always

Looking for blue but I don’t need that but that’s very fun okay somebody has somebody has done a little styling here look at this adulting sign here we salt margaritas not sidewalks that’s kind of true of Oklahoma um okay that’s kind of that’s kind of fun but again hole in the hole

In the head category okay yeah this was this this little Candlestick okay now this what are these what are these These are oh you know what these would be cute for these would be darling little okay how much are they $2.99 you know how like little bowls for matches

Okay that would be really really cute no they’re just tiny little bowls Oh I thought they had a stick in the middle okay those are kind of okay that’s going to go in my maybe in my in my maybe box okay so that pretty much does this

Side um if I needed a paper towel holder I would look at that okay this is a this is a pretty good pot but I don’t need it that’s also ho in the head category okay now Stuart we’re going to do a Switcheroo because baskets are on this

Side and I do see some Easter basket candidates okay okay you guys this is a good basket and it’s free because there’s no price tag on on it um okay but I like it because it is it doesn’t have that Sheen it’s got a weathered finish and I kind of like that

So that might go in my basket and oh my goodness look at this okay you guys this is a score for $4 what a cute picnic basket that would make for somebody oh my goodness you could do a picnic Easter basket I love IDE yeah I do too you know instead of

Wrapping oh my gosh this is just $4.99 okay that that’s a oh yeah yeah yeah that’s a great that’s a great score um if I were doing more turquoise that’s that’s okay okay Leah is looking for and baskets for her The Littles in her life for Lomi so cute oh

These are pretty cute and I love the fact that they’re kind of oldfashioned looking are you doing a specific color palette this year oh look this one’s cute I love that that one’s adorable that one’s painted it is like the one we painted okay this one is

This year to get an Easter basket I think so okay this is good too but I don’t need it okay Leah you you decide that one’s very cute you need that one for entertaining like a little yeah for entertaining yeah show show the show the world okay you guys tell me what you

Think this is my question of the day do you like kind of what we’re going for and which of the ones that we have looked at would you have immediately put in your basket amen okay Stuart let’s take a break here and then go to another aisle meanwhile you

Can show them so that they can Choose okay I’m not too into any of those two sweet Easter Bunnies this is kind of a hodge podge aisle oh my gosh oh my gosh Leah move move oh oh my gosh this is not you right here did you know these were here and have you been guarding are

Gorgeous okay those those those those shall be mine those shall be mine oh my gosh those are great okay and look at these I I I don’t know I don’t know and I’m really not that much of a ball kind of person but they but they I know okay

So I I how much are those $5.99 $5.99 a piece okay I wonder what the sale color is today it’s green okay I think I think it’s green for St Patrick’s Day so cute okay that that this one’s my favorite that is worth the trip and the basket alone is cute I may

Give you the basket and I’ll keep the balls okay okay okay look at some of these are C look at these things these are really cute they be cute with little jelly beans for jelly beans you know where else this would be really cute in your

Bathroom and I would put like Q-tips and cotton balls and things like this this looks have the Shelf space for that in my bathroom well and I already have a receptacle for that but you guys don’t you think that would be a great a great idea yes your hand so dispens and this

Like anything on a stand okay you guys tell me what you’re thinking out there what you would do with some I feel like I used to not like things on stands and now that I’m around you a lot I do you elevate everything okay now if it were if it were

Halloween I would so get these and I would put one orange bloom in each one of them A vibe there’s so many I wonder I I know oh my gosh you guys these are really have potential also if you you could put candles in each one have them

All running up and down a table oh my goodness that and they’re oh wow and anything that you that’s the same in volume I’m tormented I am tormented if I if I knew for sure I was entertaining at Halloween I would get these in a heartbeat but I don’t know that I

Am um but these are these are great I know there’s good look at these you guys a little Stamper the okay these remind me of the 60s I actually like those a lot we know I love the 60s okay this is very Grandma Chic what would I do with all of them

Well the or derf plates oh good sushi plates Sushi plates m and from Oklahoma to you a okay that’s cute they’ve got good stuff today you guys my cart is already getting full now they’ve got really great Footwear you guys um and first of all I don’t need any Footwear secondly that’s

Something I’m a little peasy about getting um uh at thrift stores tell me what you think now if it was like a great pair of cowboy boots or something I might I might break that rule or that um predilection of mine but cuz I’ve got some really cute boots

But I I think our cowboy boots yeah speaking of show our Bo yes speaking of cowboy Bo we both showed up in our boots Yes mine are high Sea by the way I love those mine were my grandpas oh well yours have a lot more Providence than mine do but but still I

Like them glad I got them okay let’s go let’s go down this aisle because I’m still looking for glasswar you guys oh Leah these are cute oh those are cute these are cute they have Mar and they got these have kind of a I don’t know it looks like a Native

American Motif on them it’s more tribal yes it’s more tribal and it’s not so feminine these are really great you guys again I do not need them but if I were entertaining and I knew for sure these would make great gelato or sorbet dishes I do love that

Motif but I also love having more storage than I have and so so I’m going to have to pause that a lot of hole in the head a lot of I know my hole in the head category okay what year do we think this is from oh 60s I

Was going to say older it’s like 50s or 60s maybe they went crazy with those colors in the 0s some kid Drew on it probably love it I think that’s really very very sweet I would okay here’s what you would do with it I would put Crayolas markers art

Supplies in here and I would have it for the littles that come over to your house add it to my add it to your I think that is that would be adorable with crayons and watercolors it does look like an art tub think it’ be cute in my kitchen to

Make it feel six it would it would and it’s that kind of Grandma Chic yeah grandma she go for it okay now we’re going to hurly do this section because they are stalking while we’re here and um and we don’t want to get in the way but look at these little

Green jars would these not be darling for um jelly milkshakes but or or just you know jelly jar M uh Arrangements FL flower arrangements I can’t I can’t say that but I think those are really really cute and they’re only a dollar a19 to be

Exact and I’m always I still made a few more martini glasses in my reservoir look at this one says something stolly genuine Russian too look at that it’s not even on the outside and it’s yeah it’s on the inside and here’s a taller one oh look

Okay that is it’s a martini for those who like their martinis um stirred not shaken I am a shaken not stirred kind of gal but if you were wanting to do a gift so cute for someone you could get you could do the whole ensemble here you could do the picture with the

Stir I like this one too but you know what I kind of like this where did that go steuart that little petite one that said stoy on the inside what did I do with it left oh there it is okay I think this this is for a dollar

This is going to go in my basket you want okay now I’m sure there’s more glass where someplace this is a deal I I feel compelled to buy it even though I don’t need it but maybe I’ll ask Leah if she needs it well one of the things that I love

Like about this Goodwill since they’ve redone some things is that they have color coordinated a lot of things so that makes it easier if I’m looking for blue and anything kind of in that color palette now I don’t need that bowl I do think this is kind of fun though this is more

Turquoise but I like this a lot okay I love this what a great find okay 289 it’s that kind of yes it’s very oldfashioned looking and this would be really really cute for my Easter table I think really like how it goes so this is going to go in my cart and

Okay this is a cute Bowl does it have oh Johnson Brothers made in England for a dollar I think I think it will go in my cart as well if even if I don’t get this little crate thing look how nicely it’s holding all of my stuff

Um now if my mother-in-law were still alive she loved ele elephant she loved giraffe she loved all kind of African animals and I would definitely actually this is very cute this is very very cute but again I don’t need it but if I were if I knew a little kiddo that

Really liked Elephants or something I think that could make a cute gift now wait a second Leah must have put this back because I see it here she added it to to the Green Into the Blue okay now here this is this is a

Kind of thing that if you’re if is a one shot and it’s done so if you’re entertaining for St Patrick’s Day or something okay now this would be really cute for an Easter basket for somebody you could make an Easter it would be very cute it be cute with flowers in it

It would be cute with all sorts of stuff in it this reminds me of my mom can you picture me watering my plants with that in the morning uh no I kind of can’t okay I think we’re getting a little loopy here let’s go to another

Aisle I don’t know if I were a teacher and I got this as a teacher gift if I would be a little offended if if that’s what the child thought I looked like um it reminds me of some story but it’s kind of cute well it’s got It’s got by

Marcy on the back actually it’s kind of that’s kind of sweet as a little teacher’s gift I guess she said okay this this is fun I saw that one we saw that that is so there’s another one over there there’s two are you supposed to

Eat popcorn out of it for sure my hand’s too big to get in and out of that thing well then for the lady maybe that’s a sign that you shouldn’t be getting into it party okay I don’t know but this is so cute if you had um you know a lot of

People in the summertime they do the Outdoor Theater thing and they put up a sheet and they watch so cute that would be so so cute it would also be very cute filled with zenas with nothing but zenas red zenas all for 2.99 I don’t but I can your garden is

Basically always open but yes it kind of is always open at this to you guys out there anyway I’m not sure what that is okay I actually love this got to wipe everybody in the reflection yeah that’s very retro it now if it said Poker Room vintage

1973 lucd lines love the name I always love the’ 60s and 70s I do not need this it will not come home with me but if you were in an apartment and you didn’t have a dishwasher it would be great to display really fun Pottery um I can even see it maybe

Temporarily it’s it’s a little too wobbly but I can see this used in a lot of really really cool ways um but especially if you if you lived in an apartment didn’t have a dishwasher or something ooh um that’d be a cool stand for 45 vinyl records it would maybe

That’s what is it’s purpose was okay look at these These are great they’re they’re trivets so that it protects the counter from something that’s hot oh okay these are really cool okay I found this Easter basket oh that’s cute I like it that’s very cute look at these that I found these trivets

See yes yes but you know but you could also put potted plants on these to protect your surfaces these also spray paint them gold and then it would match your kitchen yes but I also have this in my kitchen as well because this is the my faucet is this is this

Brushed be cute the back yeah it would be cute kind of like that M do I need these you could even little napkins over them you could you could do I need these or do I not it’s one more thing that I would have to

Store in my house do you and I hate it when there’s something like this if there was just one I would get it and then there’s two and I think do I need two and then I I hate to break up a brother and a sister okay these might have to come

Home with me just for for family’s sake okay Leah found this we are perplexed we are perplexed we need your help what is this I mean it definitely has an Easter Theme it’s pretty heavy um yeah and it’s got these bolts on the bottom something my dad would make for something random

Um and I’m sure okay so here’s our question what is it and what would you do with it even if it’s not the original purpose cuz that’s that’s kind of fun okay something that I’m also always looking for is anything that’s got kind of a marble finish um but this is the

Wrong color of marble but these are what caught my eye these are the things I’ve been looking for these can be so expensive yep excuse me these can be so expensive but I love using these for a variety of different things and right now I love using them as cookie jars so this

One is going to go into my cart and this one look at how large and Majestic this is this would look great on the corner of my um of my Island and I’m going to fill it with nothing but lies at Easter time just nothing but really beautiful

Lies so I’ve got these two yeah I’ve lost my cart though okay if I had a really modern office I think that’s kind of fun work for it more than you hope for it in a dorm that might be kind of fun um and I always like to check out just in case

They have good frames Or I’m not seeing anything today that stri makes my fancy okay now if you had a kid oh wow for a little boy’s room that would be incredible they’re all little girls in your circle look okay that is so it’s so it’s true it’s true it’s so retro like

My boys when they were little they would have loved that because this is all the oldfashioned characters this is yeah this is back in our in my vintage not your guys vintage but look at the penguin this is the very original stuff okay this would be a score for

Somebody look at the Joker up here yeah this would be a score for somebody into this kind of stuff okay now these things would fall into the category of Primitives and something my mom would really really look at I love blanket racks like this this would even be great in your laundry

Room or something if you put some kind of waterproof um coating on it uh to hang your delicates to dry after they were laundered but these are really very practical and a guest bedroom for extra blankets um but also just to hang your clothing on if you need some additional

Storage and I don’t but that’s kind of fun and look at this look at this old it’s a singer wow an old yeah Singer sewing machine $45 and what is this it’s a top it’s a cover for the top it’s a cover for the top yeah I don’t remember wow seems

Wow yeah this is cool and I I’ve never seen one with a cover for the top how do this not money I don’t know probably cuz it really needs to be restored and somebody just wanted to get it out of their attic but for $45 it can be yours look at

This that’s like every baby well Stuart I say we do maybe just a quick Breeze through the books and maybe uh through some of the tablecloths and stuff and then I think we’ll get out of here because it’s really getting crowded okay their their book their Library section

Here is greatly expanded from what it used to be and I like to look at the cookbooks not so much for myself but maybe for my kids to see if there’s something that might make a good gift for them like this one uh Gwyneth ptro this would be something that maybe my

Kids would be interested in and then Leah has a really good tip Leah share your tip okay I love books and when I’m in the book section at the thrift store I always pull out my app called Goodreads and it’s an app that stores all the books you’ve been reading but

You can also look up different books and look at the ratings on the app cuz sometimes at the bookstore you’ll see or at the thrift store you’ll see something that you’re like I might like this but I don’t know if it’s going to be good idea

Yeah so this will tell you and you can read reviews really quick so I just have my app out and while I’m looking at books that I might like I look up to see if they’re actually a good book I I like that because even a book that’s $2 if

You just spent a lot of time coing books out of your bookshelf then you obviously don’t want to repopulate them with books that aren’t any Good

  1. I so need to adopt your "hole in the head" mantra when thrifting! Sometimes it is so hard to pass by an item. This was another great video. Thanks for taking us along with you and have a very Happy Easter 🐰

  2. Thanks for this fun adventure to Goodwill today!!! You are much better at editing than I!!! The green metal wall hanger is a hose mount..my guess. Cheers to St. Paddy's Day approaching, and Palm Sunday, then EASTER! Looking forward to more of your creative ideas, Linda!

  3. مسيىة مزفقة🎍🎍🎍🎍🫱🏻‍🫲🏾🫱🏻‍🫲🏾🫱🏻‍🫲🏾🫱🏻‍🫲🏾🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻⚘️⚘️⚘️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💔💔💔💔

  4. I LOVE these thrifting videos!!! Stewart chuckling at your finds and excitement is darling!!! I could watch all day long!!

  5. I would have chosen the Longaberger Basket on the top shelf with teal liner. Not sure what the metal bunny was for but maybe a mailbox topper?

  6. I love 💕 you thrifting videos. You have so many great ideas on things that I never would have thought of. I just wish there were the quality of thrift stores in Arkansas that you have in Oklahoma. I’ve been to two in different cities and all they have is true junk. Your tips are great.

  7. I think the green metal rabbit item is missing another rabbit at the other end- hence the holes- which would make it a book holder maybe?

  8. Oh my goodness…love 🌹thrift shopping..especially with you. ♥️I wish my Mom was alive. She would love it toooooo. Sending love hugs prayers and kindness with positive thoughts ♥️🙏🏼🌹👍🏼🦋
