What a beautiful quilt, someone really put time and thought into the arrangement of the colors.!!!
Love, love, love the Grandmother’s Garden quilt! What a treasure!
I’m so happy with it!
The quilts were well worth the price, the rest of what I saw …… not so much. Ten miles further down I75 is the small town of Corbin, Ky. The Peddler’s Mart prices there are much more reasonable and the same general quality. When the word ‘antique’ is inserted in verbiage, it’s automatically a third higher than it should be. However, just my opinion. Btw, I have the same large white glazed bowl that you paid 12.99 for that I bought at the Corbin store I mentioned for $2.00. No cracks, no chips, same excellent condition. And no, I’m not affiliated with that Peddlers. I don’t even live in the London/Corbin area. I’m from Somerset. We also have a Peddlers but I would not recommend it for many reasons.
Linda that’s awesome. What a great deal on the bowl! ❤️ last time I was at the Corbin Peddler’s Mall most of the booths were empty unless you’re talking about a different one. I live in Harlan, Kentucky so we’re practically neighbors! Thanks so much for watching!
@@Melissa.Ringstaff You’re welcome. Thanks for posting!
@@OrangeySky11❤️❤️❤️
So happy u got it. ❤❤❤
Thank you Rita! It’s such a happy, cheerful quilt! ❤️
Hey Gf! I love that beautiful handstitched piece right at the beginning❤ And the rest of the doilies & hankies in that little pile.. good prices too. I really want to find some more old hankies. I like to hang hankies out of little drawers, tuck them in my old apron pockets that i have hanging on a peg rack, hang out of a bible or a basket.. so many cute ways to use them!😊 They seem to have reasonable prices there. OMGGG the quilt is gorgeous.. love it, beautiful colors❤ You know my love for an old handmade quilt! I knew it was going home with you when you were showing it.. Awesome find! I'm going to have A little collection eventually😉 I loved the old lamp on that piece where you waved at us in the mirror..i'm obsessed with old lamps & collect them when i find good deals😉 Mmmm love the quilt scraps too..i could find plenty of places to put/use them for sure! You're so right, the fabric in the quilt is really paired perfectly! Couldn't get much better! I think its one if the prettiest ones I've seen in that pattern & well worth the price! Enjoyed the video, Always love spending time with you sweet friend! Pray you have A very blessed weekend🙏🏻
Hi Tammy! I hope you’re having a good week! I know we’re kindred spirits! So many good ideas for hankies! I may have to steal some of them! 😅 I would love to see your house! Thanks so much for hanging out with me. ❤️
Hi Melissa If we did not live in WV we would live in Kentucky. Some of our best memories are there. When we get to London Kentucky we know we are close to Cumberland Lake. We love Barren River Lake too. Kentucky has so so many beautiful areas and the best state parks. Would I buy that quilt for ninety five dollars…ABSOLUTELY!!!! I love the colors and everything about it. The lady that did that spent so much time on it. It is a piece of history and a piece of art. The other side would not bother me a bit. I think I told you I rescued a little long quilt from an estate sale. I put it on the bottom of our bed. It was so old and had holes. I patched it up and I think it adds something pretty to our plain blue comforter a young neighbor bought me for Mother’s Day. I loved all of your purchases. I rescue doilies from estate sales…love them. I have bowls in my kitchen , but there’s some in the attic too. We could be thrifting sisters from different misters…lol 😂😂😂😂 Love seeing you picking out things you love. Do your daughters like thrifting and old stuff ? I need a bigger house! Take care . ❤❤❤❤
We’re definitely kindred spirits! Do you live in the west part of West Virginia near Kentucky? I’m about 2 hours south east of London Kentucky. I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought the quilt was lovely. I’m so happy with it. 😊 I love that you rescued a sweet quilt and repaired it. What a great idea!
@@Melissa.Ringstaff Yes Have you heard of Marshall University? We live about thirty minutes from Huntington. I watched another video today . Yes, I have trouble with magazine racks doing that too. I have lots of albums piled up in the dining room. I am going to find a magazine rack like that to hold at least part of them, but need to find a record player at an estate sale. That was a great idea. You are going to be busy for your daughter’s wedding…sounds wonderful seeing everyone and I am sure it will be a beautiful wedding. Take time off and enjoy it all. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love the quilt
Thank you Jo Ann! I appreciate you being here with me today! ❤️
Your haul is beautiful. Quilt is amazing was worth 95.00
Thank you Karen! I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought so!
Melissa!!!! You was in the town over from where I live!!!! Love your videos! I watch them when you have a new one! I like the London Peddlers Mall. I went back earlier in the summer! I love the quilt, mixing bowls and doilles!
Hi Katie! That’s so cool! Where are you from? I live in Harlan, Kentucky! Thanks so much for watching. I appreciate you being here! ❤️
Absolutely would have spent $95 on the quilt. I ❤️ it! I’m a sucker for bowls too!
Yay! I’m glad you liked the quilt too! And there’s just something about a good bowl lol. 😅
Awesome episode Melissa. I love all of your purchases. The quilt is beautiful and I agree with you about the gorgeous colors and the price was very reasonable.
Thank you! I appreciate you saying that. Thanks so much for watching and visiting with me today! ❤️❤️❤️
I am a quilter...The ninety-five dollars price tag is very fair. The work that went into that piece is very tedious. I would have spent that amount in a heartbeat! Enjoy!!!
Thank you Sandra! I love that you’re a quilter. What a special hobby. My mom has made me a couple of quilts too. I treasure them. This quilt makes me so happy! 🥰 Glad I’m not the only one who thought it was worth the price!
Absolutely would have purchased that quilt!! I loved it when you showed it off in the store. The colors, design and handmade quilt are so great!!❤. I was hoping you snatched it up!!
Thank you Carla! It’s definitely one of my favorites! Just such a cheerful quilt! I love that there are others like me who love old quilts too. 😊 I haven’t seen any other thrifting or antiquing TH-camrs buy them (of course I could totally be just missing them). Thank so much for watching!
Love the quilt. Definitely worth it.
I’m glad you like it! Thanks so much for watching!
Has to be done, no matter how tired. Make such a difference to your day when you can start with a clean kitchen.
Yes!! 🙌
Glad you bought the quilt. It’s beautiful. I was hoping you would.
Awww thank you! It makes my heart happy! 🥰 Thanks so much for watching, Eunice! It’s nice to see you again. I hope you are well!
Live the magazine rack its very nice
Thank you! I thought it was a great deal!
Yes, I have the same issue with my magazine rack. If you discover a "fix" to prevent magazines from folding over on themselves, please share! Hope your daughter's wedding is spectacular!!
Glad to know I’m not the only one struggling with magazines in my magazine racks! 😅 And Thank you! The wedding was perfect. I’ll have to share a couple photos!
Hi Melissa I so agree. No matter how late it is or how tired I am I get my kitchen in order and dishes washed and put up. I don’t remember my mom ever leaving the dishes for the next day. A nice clean kitchen makes your coffee or tea tastes better in the morning 😂. My kitchen is more old fashioned than yours because it is a forties house with white painted cabinets and I wish my cabinets went all the way up to the ceiling. I put my Blenko glass pitchers there and they are a pain to take down and wash. I love your green bottom cabinets . I have a large window above the sink too. I love your kitchen isn’t sparse. I love all of your kitchen decor. I love love love the floor. We paint our floor . There was awful kitchen carpet when we moved in. Iwould love to put in wood floors but the kitchen is really big and would be quite pricey. The rest of the house is small. Enjoy the rest of the week. ❤❤❤
Oh thank you Rita! We actually renovated the kitchen in 2018 after living with it in bad shape for 15 years. It was a 1940’s kitchen and falling apart. It really needed help. I miss the old custom cabinets and I had shelves on each side of the window that I loved. But we couldn’t find a cabinet maker to fix the doors and new hinges didn’t fit (the wood was thicker than newer cabinets and standard hinges didn’t fit) among other problems. I am very happy with the new kitchen though! I bet your kitchen is so cozy! I would love to see it!
@@Melissa.Ringstaff Hi Melissa People either love my kitchen or hate it. My friends are all pretty much into modern. They tell me I have a grandma’s kitchen and I say thank you. When we first married we had an apartment and we wanted modern, then a rented house and with older foster sons and we did not even try to decorate much. They were wild and things got broken . When we inherited this forties house that was originally my husband’s grandmother we suddenly switched gears. My husband had gotten a lot of old stuff from his other grandmother who lived way in the country and out it in storage . I never thought we would use any of it. Anyhow after I got used to this house I did everything in my power to make it look like a fifties kitchen because that is when his grandparents turned it from a fisherman’s cabin to a home. I love doilies, old wooden spoons, all the old red handled spoons and utensils they used then and rolling pins, and crocks. I have a whole set of salt and pepper shakers. I heard that is when you know you are getting older when you have a collection of them..lol I don’t care. I just found a number 2 crock like the one in your video today in London, Kentucky in our old dirt basement. I put it in the kitchen with canes and walking sticks. I try to quit collecting , because my family are all minimalists ….I am a maxamalist. I tell them to have an estate sale when we are boneless I love your kitchen and yes would not not mind upgrading one day. I love your kitchen . ❤️
Yes! So important! ❤
❤️❤️❤️
I have great memories of our county fair when I was young. My big brothers always took me. ❤
Oh what sweet memories! I bet that was fun!
Love small fairs.
Me too!
Fun times!🎡🎪
Yes! 👏
Hi Melissa That’s a great morning routine . I am not a morning person, because I have a very problematic back and it gets better later in the day. Yum, home made biscuits. Your house is exactly my style…looks so pretty but comfy. ❤❤❤
Thank you Rita! These days I have a slower start to my mornings than I did when my kids were still at home. I don’t have to get up with the sun as often anymore 😅
One of my former clients died. She always sent me Mornings with Jesus . It is a devotional that comes from Guideposts. Her husband is in a nursing home, but I think he renewed that, Guideposts and Real Simple magazine. We have never met a better couple than them, and I miss her so much. We went to the nursing home to see him, but he was a shell of the man we knew before. ❤❤❤
I love that quilt.❤❤❤
Isn’t it so cheerful? Thank you! ❤️
I love your haircut! It’s a great length for you! What a great shop! So many pretty quilts. I especially like the first one you looked at. You brought home some great finds. The magazine rack has a pretty shape, and I love the idea of using it to display albums. ❤
Thank you! ❤️ The quilts were really nice! And the prices weren’t bad on most of them. I really liked that first one too!
I LOVE the green planter too!!
Thank you! 😊 I appreciate you being here!
I love vintage planters, too. ❤ You've found some nice ones recently
Ahh yes! I’ve had some good luck with them! I think I’ve been consciously looking for them. That helps 😅 thanks for watching Carla! I’m so glad you’re here! ❤️❤️❤️
Your hair looks so good!
Aww thanks Janet!! I appreciate you being here!
Chuck Wagon Gang record I spotted....I would cringe when my dad would play them...I now have the records and cherish them along with my Andre' Crouch and Dino. I was thinking about finding a rack to put serving trays in...just another function. Happy wedding week...we loved our time with that.
We love the old classics! We actually went and saw the Chuck Wagon Gang in concert a few years ago right here in Harlan, Kentucky. So much fun! They were super nice and my husband LOVED chatting with them. Serving trays in a rack is a great idea too! I might have to find another one and put it to use that way!
Love your haircut. My favorites from the haul were the green planter and juice pitcher.
Thank you! I really do love the planter and pitcher. I’m glad you liked them. Thanks for watching!! ❤️
What a great idea for displaying old records. I recently saw a YT thrifters put cookbooks in a old magazine rack.
Oh I love that idea too! I have a huge collection of vintage cookbooks!
❤ GREAT HAIRCUT.....IT LOOKS GREAT!!
Awww thank you! How are you Donna?
Your hair looks lovely. I like the length.
Thank you, Eunice! It’s nice to see you again! I hope you are well! ❤️
Hey my dear friend! Sorry I'm late seeing this.. life has been a bit crazy🥴 But Excited to watch😁 I hate we never go to meet up & shop together in Chattanooga.🫤 You know my love tho wood & old things made of wood.. the spool is so cool, very unique shape. Oh Goodness I love anything hand stitched.. and things with the Victorian or French country look. The little cross stitched picture is just super sweet! Again with the wood.. the shelf outs precious! And green is my Fav color.. love it!💚 You had the sweetest haul😊 Thanks for sharing & it was great to see you! Hope you have A blessed weekend.. love & hugs 🙏🏻❤🤗
So glad you’re here, Tammy! I hope you’re doing okay and your family is well!
Hi Melissa..such beautiful things. I can never afford the real nice quilts but ypu showed some nice ones. I was saying Melissa get the chair pads. I am so glad they fit. I love the squatty pitcher. I love old books. I collect church cookbooks...so many good recipes. I also have some really old hardbook cook books. I would have had a hard time too, leaving some of those items. Take care Melissa.. I told you I hate to drive. You amaze me going state to state. It has been one hundred degrees in our part of WV. We are in a drought and its not pretty.❤❤❤
Quilts can be so expensive!! I get excited when I find a good deal! Old church cookbooks are just so good. I have so many vintage cookbooks I love. A couple years ago as my kids got older and my youngest child moved to college I found myself with more time and no one to travel with (my husband doesn’t usually want to go or he’s working) so I just decided to be brave. It was so hard at first to travel alone. I felt vulnerable and anxious but it’s gotten easier! I’m more confident now. It just takes practice (if it’s something one wants to do). Did y’all get rain this week? I hope so!
@@Melissa.Ringstaff How kind of you to respond. We did get rain , but too late for our garden . I went out this evening, right before dark and pulled up all of our plants in the garden. We really enjoyed the tomatoes this year . Melissa, I do wish I liked driving better. First of all my dad scared my sister and me about driving on busy roads and we call a freeway..not really an interstate. He would scare us about driving it. Then when I was seventeen a friend and I got hit by a drunk driver and she had a broken pinkie and I had a rather large skull fracture above my left ear. I was in the hospital a week. My husband and I were hit head on by a very drunk and high on cocaine young guy when we were younger. My husband was not hurt, but I tore all the tendons or ligaments where the chest plate is ( if I do too much there is a hernia that pops out still, and hurts ) and I had nerve damage in my elbows and wrists…two surgeries there. So, sure that has not helped my dislike of driving.. When I had the skull fracture I heard the nurse say “ Oh my gosh …look at that skull fracture.” I was delirious and laughed and laughed. My dad was a big heck of a man, but when the hospital called him he cried. I was fine, but was told to eat jello with gelatin to heal. I remember my work called and told my mom said she is in the hospital with a skull fracture. They said we don’t care where she is , we need her to come back to work. As soon as summer came I quit that job with the lovely employers🤣. Anyhow, I don’t know if I will ever feel comfortable driving long distances. Luckily, my husband loves going to estate sales as long as there are plenty of manly stuff, especially tools. He also looks for useful household items like lightbulbs, cleaning stuff etc. We both like old stuff. I think your hair looks gorgeous. It is so thick. My hair has been cut by my hairstylist shorter than I like sometimes, but since I am married to him, I usually forgive him and it grows fast. We both are stylists…I think I told you that, but now he cuts grass on a seventy five acre farm and he has not been working because the grass is dead. Hopefully, we will get more rain. Take care my adventuresome friend. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@ritastutler1470oh wow! I’ve never been in an accident. I’m not sure how would feel about driving if I had been through everything you’ve been through. That’s scary! Your husband sounds like a wonderful man! And he cuts hair! Hope he’s able to get some work before winter. We need our grass mowed right now 😅 I’m scared to do it because we’re on a mountain hill and my husband hasn’t had time this week. Hope things get better. God bless!
also for crafty girlies, you can use blankets, clothes, etc. as fabric for sewing, patchwork and other crafts!
Yes!! Great ideas!
You always find the best stuff!
I do get lucky a lot!
Gorgeous❤
❤️❤️❤️
Hi Melissa I always love all of your finds. I especially love the beautiful cross-stitch. I love red too. I have lots of red in our kitchen, but little red pieces scattered around the rest of the house. Red is a happy color. I rescued a beautiful floral cross-stitch from an estate sale. I never find shelves like that. I love the green with the cross-stitch. I love the yellow planter too. Yes, you need to get a little plant in it. It has been close to one hundred or one hundred for days. We are in a drought and our garden dried up, even though we watered. I hope you and your family are doing ok. Sending virtual hugs ❤❤❤
Hi Rita! So nice to see you! Red really is a happy color. It cheers me up. I’m glad to know others collect cross stitch too. I don’t see a lot of folks online use cross stitch in their decorations but maybe I’m not finding the right people. I just LOVE IT! 😊 Hope it’s cooling off there!
Congratulations 🎉🎉
Ha thanks!! 😊
❤I LOVE YOUR HAUL...YOU ALWAYS FIND VERY UNIQUE ITEMS...HAVE A GOOD LABOR DAY...STAY COOL IF POSSIBLE...GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!
Thank you Donna. I love finding unique pieces to decorate with. I love making a cozy space with things that you can’t find just anywhere 😅 thanks so much for watching. It’s actually chilling here in Kentucky today which has been nice. We’re in the mountains and the climate is usually pretty good. What are temperatures where you are at?
Great finds 👏
Thank you Elaine! ❤️❤️
The green shelf is amazing !!
Oh thank you Melanie! I can’t wait to hang it! ❤️
The shelf and the cross stitch would look great in the laundry room. Love both pieces!
Thank you! I can’t wait to get my laundry room done. Everything has been on stand still for months now since our contractor passed away. I do love these pieces! ❤️
Beautifull cross -stitch, my favourite! ❤
Thank you Maya! I’m glad to know others enjoy vintage cross stitch too!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love the spool. I have a few tall wood ones. Love the green shelf. I am going to the Hawkinsville Antique Mall tomorrow where you visited a while back. I only live 11 miles from there. Have a great day. I really enjoy your videos and your beautiful home. God Bless. Lynn from GA
Oh wow! Have fun!! Let me know if you find anything! ❤️❤️ Thank you for your sweet words!
Pretty finds! I love the spool - I’ve never seen one so short. The yellow planter is darling!
I wonder if it was a ribbon spool maybe? I have no idea!
Looks like that spool could be a candle holder, too. Like you said, very basic yet versatile piece. ❤. I loved the heart and yellow planter, too!!
Yes!! I can just imagine so many ways to use it. Thanks so much for watching today Carla!
I like all of the things that you bought.
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
