I made that exact crewel, "Life is Fragile Handle with Care" for my mom around 1980. The kit came from a company called, Creative Circle. At the time, it was one of those home party type things. I got it back after my mom passed and it's hanging in my home now. Very fun to see how excited you were to find it.
That is awesome! I love it and would love one as well. Love the sentiment andctgat it looks like the South Carolina state bird, the Carolina Wren. How sweet that your mother kept it all those years and it returned to you. Be sure it is passed along to a family member who will appreciate it with a note pinned to the back! I have a few of my Grandmother's pieces I have been repairing, cleaning, and passing along to my cousin's child. She's the only GreatGrand. She may decide later what to do. Your story was very special! I'll be looking at piece up!
I love this story!! Thank you for sharing. :) I come from a long line of women that loved to clear house every season, so we don't have as many family keepsakes as I would like! So interesting to learn that the kits were sold at home parties - I wish they would revive those business instead of cooking utensils and leggings! ;)
Fun fact, on framed paintings, the inner frame (usually made of wood and sometimes covered in velvet like yours) is called a Marie-Louise in French. :) The origin of the term is debated but I find it so pretty and quirky!
Showstopper = that candelabra for that price! The small painting is precious. I have a ton of local artists' (South Carolina) that I've collected and must hang. But, I love other pieces like that tossed in! Love the eagle - I collect Americana: eagles, flags, 1776 commemoratives, smaller classics like that! I have those cranes! I'm planning to add them to a couple of birdbaths for fun! The large bird and yellow crewl piece pulls at my heartstrings from my childhood. Great shopping the event with you! I just found you two weeks ago, so I am enjoying old videos. You are a lovely lady. I really love that you dress well and present yourself so nicely. I know it's not required. But, in sales, and in presentations, it is very much a plus!
Aww thank you for your sweet comments and for watching some of my old videos - it really helps grow my channel! I'm totally going to add some Americana keywords to my eagle listing - thanks for the tip!
Im a sucker for tree, or mountain paintings (and both together). Love the size of of that gorgeous painting you picked up too. The lamp is so unique... def a keeper. Thanks for taking us along with you Andi... you're always fun to shop with :D
Thank you for sharing don't know if you notice that your haul had the sam palette love everything in the haul especially the lamp I say keep it not often you find one so until you find another then you can part with it so it's a keeper. Have a wonderful blessed Saturday and weekend.
You're so right - it's funny when that happens. Sometimes I wonder if it's by chance or if my eye starts to curate without me even knowing it and I end up with similar things!
I’ve recently found your channel. I’m a retired teacher, thrifting lover, newbie eBay reseller in Central Oregon. I’m binging your videos and appreciate all of the information. Thank you. Now I’m thinking 🤔🤔🤔🤔maybe an Etsy Shop? Hmmmmm.
Yay! Welcome to reselling! There are a few tools out there that will actually cross post your eBay listings on other sites/apps. You could look into doing that. Etsy works well for me, but it can be involved to set up. Not hard, just lots of steps. Thanks for binging my channel! :)
I love pottery too - but totally stopped picking it up because it slowed down for me on Etsy. BUT it does sell well in my booth, so I'm going to start picking it up again! :)
Hi Andi, I'm interested in the candelabra. I went to the sale, but not the early bird. OMG, so many people & so many treasures! It was kind of overwhelming! Love that lamp too!
Those clamshell baskets are awesome! I don't like feeling like I'm competing with other people at these sorts of things so I like to go towards the end. Better deals and I figure if I find something good then it was meant to be!
Hey Andi I really love that lamp and like you I wouldn’t been able to pass up, and the brass candle labra I love love love to me that was your best find in this haul😁 thank you for sharing🙏🏻 maybe you could do a video where you take us to your booth again and tell us what you sold and how you style again. 🙋🏼♀️😊
It made me shudder to think of cutting the cord. I thought requiring a lamp was something easy to do- but of course I’ve never tried. Anyhow that lamp is life!! Nice haul Lady!!❤
Yes!!!! That lamp is THAT GOOD!!!! And for only $10!!!! Score!!!
It’s still one of my fav scores.

Update: Oh, those kits are out there! Lots! LOL! I want the one here that is completed if I am able to afford it! Just precious!

How cool! Thanks for sharing that info!
Andi ☀️ Please keep the brass lamp 🛋️ but I have to say the candelabra was the best $5 you've ever spent. Thanks for sharing ❤️

OMG I love that it's called that! I'm def going to have to remember that for a future video. ;)
Yes, definitely the candelabra and the little lamp!!! Lovvvvvvvve!
The lamp is Everything 😊
Right?! :)
Wow, that candelabra for $5! Such great items, thanks for taking us along!
So many good steals!

That floral painting in the beginning is so pretty
I know! I dont know why I didnt get it - totally regretted it when I rewatched the footage.
The lamp is sooooooooo beautiful!!!!!
I will cherish it forever!
I’m obsessed with that lamp⭐️⭐️⭐️. I think lamps are a perfectly reasonable thing to collect❤
Haha thank you for validating my new collection. ;)
Love the lamp. The painting was my second favorite. Such fun to virtually go on the shopping trip with you. Thanks.
Thank you for coming along!
I love lamp!
:)
THE LAMP IS EVERYTHING!!! Great score! You have to keep it!🤩
Agree!! I love it too much!
Keep the lamp!!! You are so funny!!
Thanks! ;)
My Grandma had one of those calendars
They are so cool and I love how they function.
Very fine haul!!! The cranes a great score!!! And Yes the brass little lamp is epic, and toooo sweet!!!💞💞🙃💞💞
Thank you! 🤗
I love that lamp keep it woman
100% I will!! ;)
Those brass cranes are a good seller for me too.
Love the art nouveau lamp - gotta keep it!
I keep waiting for the cranes to slow down, kinda like how brass pineapples did, but so far so good!
@@AllPutTogether ooo I think I missed the brass pineapple trend 😂
I love the little lamp 💕
The lamp is my favorite thing you got! It is stunning
Made the whole trip worth it! Thanks for watching!
The 1st lamp is a keeper! ❤❤
100%!!
Lamp is great,
I love lamp (too). And, I agree...a couple bucks is 2 BUCKS. He'd have had more negotiating power with "a few bucks". Another fab haul!!
Im a sucker for tree, or mountain paintings (and both together). Love the size of of that gorgeous painting you picked up too.
The lamp is so unique... def a keeper.
Thanks for taking us along with you Andi... you're always fun to shop with :D
Thank you for always coming along!! ;)
The lamp is beautiful , keep it !
Totally! I could never part with it!
I also love lamp!! It is everything a solid brass lamp should be ...love love
i’m so glad someone else appreciates brass animals!! p.s. i think the butterfly counts as a brass animal
The prices are so great...so much fun thrifting with you! Oh my goodness...love all the brass!
I still can't believe I got so much brass! It's so hard to find in the thrifts anymore.
I love the lamp!! And life is fragile handle with prayer crewel is so pretty! I would be displaying them both in my own home!
If I had a place for that crewel I would totally keep it!

What a great event!
I love lamp too 😂. My weakness though is studio pottery. Love the Japanese vase near beginning of the video. Also love the cranes.
I love pottery too - but totally stopped picking it up because it slowed down for me on Etsy. BUT it does sell well in my booth, so I'm going to start picking it up again! :)
I love the shell baskets, the horse and lamp!!!
Hi Andi, I'm interested in the candelabra. I went to the sale, but not the early bird. OMG, so many people & so many treasures! It was kind of overwhelming! Love that lamp too!
Insects are animals and the lamp is gorgeous.
Haha thank you for the info! :)
Freaking love the lamp! I love lamp!!! ❤
I look at it with glee every single day!
I go crazy over those metal lamps too!
Keep the lamps. They are amazing. Love all your other stuff too.
Those clamshell baskets are awesome! I don't like feeling like I'm competing with other people at these sorts of things so I like to go towards the end. Better deals and I figure if I find something good then it was meant to be!
Nice haul! Keep the lamp; it’s great! 🇨🇦
It's def a forever piece!
Lamp is adorable!
I love the crewel piece & all that brass! Drool!
Hey Andi I really love that lamp and like you I wouldn’t been able to pass up, and the brass candle labra I love love love to me that was your best find in this haul😁 thank you for sharing🙏🏻 maybe you could do a video where you take us to your booth again and tell us what you sold and how you style again. 🙋🏼♀️😊
Andi, the lamp is fab. Keep it and get it working.
I can never part with it - it brings me too much joy! ;)
Love everything!!! Definitely love lamp 😁!!!

I loooooooove the lamp!!!

I'm so glad others feel the same and I'm not a weirdo in love with a lamp. ;)
Great finds! Oh those lamps! You must keep them! ☺
Love lamps, too!
Love both lamps but really love the aller one💕
The lamp is great x
Thanks for watching!
Love the lamps and candelabra great video thanks xx😊
Love the new lamp!
Thanks for watching!
Love the lamp!!!
Great video! I'd love to go to an event like this. Anyway we can get more thrifting videos; I love watching the actual shopping portion so much!
Having lamps around that don't work and with a cut cord is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. I really like lamps as well and those are great.
Haha it's def something only a designer would do! ;) But agree, it's a very unusual concept.
@@AllPutTogether A bad designer. I have a degree in interior design/architecture myself.
It made me shudder to think of cutting the cord. I thought requiring a lamp was something easy to do- but of course I’ve never tried.
Anyhow that lamp is life!! Nice haul Lady!!❤
@@anniecampbell6406 Rewiring is as easy as falling off of a log.
Where in Washington is this fabulous yard sale????
It’s at the Clark county fairgrounds.
Thank you so much!!!!!
“Anyways” and “expecially” - really? You’re darling but that mispronounciation thing has got to go!
This comment is certainly NOT darling.
