I didn’t know you were a special Ed teacher but I’m not surprised! You’re so gentle speaking! I’m guessing that going through these bags must be therapeutic for you! I love watching your videos. It makes me want to go thrifting! Thanks!

[@ThelmaThrift]

Oh thank you!

[@carlyncraig4554]

Thelma, you find the most wonderful things. What a fabulous video. You are a joy to watch.

Pearls strung on a chain...YAY!

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thanks for watching.

[@juneeastwood8391]

Thanks for another great video with some beautiful jewelry. The peridot, amethyst, and blue topaz cross was just lovely, and it’s being sterling was a bonus! One of my favorite color combinations!

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thank you so much!

[@tamabogert9494]

The long dangling butterfly earring is long enough it could be made into two earrings.

[@ThelmaThrift]

What a fab idea♥️

Hi Thelma,beautiful jewelery bag;the pieces of glass may be knives holder("porte couteaux" in french );here ,whe put them near the plates and so the knives blades don't stain the party tablecloth (mines are in Baccarat cristal and i use them for Christmas meal)

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thanks so much for the information

[@swissuz]

Great idea...even if that isn't their original intent, it's a brilliant idea!

[@mariek9221]

@@swissuz It's not my idea,it's real,if you search on wikipedia "cristal or glass knife holders",you will find many of them , Baccarat,St Louis,Daum,etc...! Have a good day!Marie from France!

Jewellery Bag Therapy. Just the antidote for one very bored Kiwi. Too many days of rain. I have no idea what has happened to our summer! My fav was that red necklace that looked like carnelian. Just loved the colour! Oh and also the little peridot and amethyst cross was very pretty. Wish I lived in the States. 😀 Thank you Thelma 😊🇳🇿😘

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thanks- I hope the gloomy weather turns bright soon.

[@roxanneharrow6486]

Yay! I just saw the 1975 Easter bunny!

[@ThelmaThrift]

Lol. Right!

[@kerriesmith666]

I think that pink donut is a napkin holder. But it could be used as a pendant especially on that black glass necklace. ❤

[@ThelmaThrift]

Great idea.

[@compeansasmrboutique4094]

Good morning Thelma. Did classes get canceled for your district? Happy to see a video from you on this cold day.

[@ThelmaThrift]

No. We’ve not had icy roads in Houston. Hopefully the week will fare as good. Thanks so much ❤️

[@jacquiemagdin7325]

That hallmark bunny!! I had that way back when they came out. Too cool!and that cross with the multi-colored stones, I had one just like it, but it was lost in a house fire. It is just as beautiful as I remember it being.

[@ThelmaThrift]

Oh wow! Thanks so much for sharing.

Thanks for the clarification 🐼

[@anniegarcia828]

I wish I had known the the value of the jewelry I bought from goodwills when I use to buy their jars I wouldn’t have thrown away stuff I found ugly but didn’t realized what I was doing. Like bakealight i think it’s called, but now I know better and am trying to sell some of the stuff, I learn a lot from your videos thank you.

[@UlricaRunsvik]

The clock marked Orrefors, it is from à maker of swedish crystal.

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thanks for the info💞💎💞

[@bonniezimlich1403]

Some really wonderful finds. I wonder if the glass pieces you found would fit in that one you found you said would be good for resin. Sometimes single earrings can be repurposed and made into pendants. Stay safe and warm hugs.

[@ThelmaThrift]

That's what I was thinking.

[@kelleyrancher]

When I have really nice earrings and there's only one I use them either to put as a pin cuz you can put the thing on the back you know to Anchor it to like a collar of a Blazer or is it for a hat decoration I wear a lot of hats

[@karenbatten1683]

Hi Thelma! I'm a Leo also!

[@ThelmaThrift]

Super! So good to have you here Ms. Karen

[@jacquiemagdin7325]

The jade slate necklace looks like it had something on the middle piece. Like attached with the 5 holes maybe.

[@ThelmaThrift]

I’ll check it. Thanks.

[@wizphotogirl]

I would double check the earrings. The one broken and not broken at 36:25. Look up Ruby rock, it might be that or it could be Goodletite which is very expensive! It is from New Zealand. This stone is only found in one place!

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thanks for the information

[@stacybjork1228]

What did you learn to clean Brighton?? I have so many pieces I never wear anymore because they are just so tarnished. Such a shame as they were beautiful when I got them and definitely not cheap.

[@ThelmaThrift]

Indeed. They are very expensive. A white pencil eraser worked wonderfully for me.

[@normaloza3373]

Your always lucky❤❤❤

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thanks for watching. Crossed fingers always.

[@jonahischillin7796]

I know this is over a year old but those glass rectangles would look nice wrapped in wire and mad into a nice wire wrapped necklace chain with them

[@ThelmaThrift]

What a great idea! I have them in a plant saucer they look lovely as they reflect sunlight at the windowsill.

[@tania145]

Thelma! The clock with the text "Orrefors" is a swedish brand, famous for jewelry and glass! Don't throw it away!

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thanks so much for the information. ♥️

[@rhondawolfgangbelluscio2548]

Hello
New subscriber from Pa. I am a lover of sterling silver or white gold. I have 5 holes in one ear and 7 in the other. I wear different earrings in my piercings. I rarely match my earrings!! Greatly enjoyed watching your video. TFS.

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thanks for the sub!❤️😍❤️

[@vickiporter4804]

I have started wearing a lot of leather cord necklaces due to metal allergies

[@ThelmaThrift]

love leather cords.

[@denisevaz4501]

The long glass pieces are cabochons. And the oval metal pieces are bezels. Yes you could place a photo or picture in the bezel and use mod modge or glue a cabochon on top of them. The piece I think you said was a impressionist piece was a piece using the cabochon and bezel you already found in the jar and it has an acrylic paint pour skin under the cab. That is what I do with them. The pink pendent appears do be a paint pour skin under the cab.

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thanks for the information ♥️

My Cousin owns a Backerlight bracelet big and smal Roses and leaves…..we do not know it’s value, it was her Great Grandmother.

Thank you for the information.

[@barbaraheed3509]

I know it's late in the game but if still have the little cross with the peridot and amethyst I'd really like to find out if you are selling it. I had one almost just like this one when I graduated from high school in 1976. Yea I'm getting to be kind of old now. But I sure do like that little cross if your interested in selling it. I'll look for your comment. Thanks so much.

[@ThelmaThrift]

Let me look around I don't remember if I sold it or not. Please email me at [e-mail]. I will let you know ASAP. Thank you for your interest.

Gorgeous jewelry! You might be able to get a replacement stone from a jewelry maker, maybe a native american jewelry maker. They can at least steer you in thevright direction. It would be worth replacing.

[@swissuz]

I have a question for you and your viewers. I'm in Texas, and a lot of people pronounce bakelite "bake-lite"...but I've noticed several people online that pronounce it "bake-a-lite". Does anyone know the original pronunciation? It was developed by a man from Germany whose name is spelled similarly to bakelite, but it doesn't look like his name would be pronounced either way.

[@swissuz]

OK...I found the answer! This is from Wikipedia. Looks like I have to get used to the correct way to pronounce it! LOL!
Bakelite (/ˈbeɪkəlaɪt/ BAY-kə-lyte), formally Polyoxybenzylmethylenglycolanhydride, is a thermosetting phenol formaldehyde resin, formed from a condensation reaction of phenol with formaldehyde. The first plastic made from synthetic components, it was developed by Leo Baekeland in Yonkers, New York in 1907, and patented on December 7, 1909 (U.S. Patent 942699A).

[@ThelmaThrift]

Yes. That’s correct. Thanks for watching and your question ♥️

[@johnnymac3211]

WRAP THE GLASS WITH COPPER WIRE!

[@ThelmaThrift]

Great idea!

[@JewelsNcrime]

My locations don't have much for treasures, anything of any value gets removed or the clerk is head to toe with jewels. Any sterling or gold gets put in the display case for pretty much retail prices. I stopped being a sucka for these jars after pulling out Mardi gras beads, bandaids, napkin rings, teeth, bottle caps,screws barrettes and press on nails.

[@ThelmaThrift]

I hear ya.
