    Kiki’s delivery service is animated film by Hayao Miyazaki and people LOVE his work.

      Studio Ghibli print highly collectible. Kiki’s delivery service is one of their films ( anime)

      It's one of my favorites!

  • @sheryllangdon2110

    The one you left behind is the better of the 2 fish paintings and colorful. Pastels need to be hung or laid flat to prevent pastel dust (or sprayed lightly with fixative or hairspray to set.) You can replace the mat very inexpensively. Metal frames unscrew so easy to do.

    • @susanfernandez7475
      @susanfernandez7475 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      yes! I loved the 2nd fish painting and would have reframed/rematted it for that low price!!!!

    • @donnalemon5880
      @donnalemon5880 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Agreed, those metal frames are easy to remove and put back together.

  • @DisWish

    The fish artwork you picked up is EVERYTHING. I would have a hard time parting with it. Would go straight up on my walls 😅

    • @debbiestyer453
      @debbiestyer453 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes the fish charcoal is wonderful.

    • @cheryldavis8776
      @cheryldavis8776 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      If the smutz is only on the mat of the fish pastel, that could be replaced easily enough.
      If it had been me, I would have taken it.

  • @laurelvance5533
    @laurelvance5533 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    I LOVE your down to earth way of vocalizing your thoughts. And, I'm learning from you. I plan to get involved in thrifting and flipping. 👍🏻

    The pastel angel fish artwork was also beautiful. The matte could have been changed easily. Wish I lived in PA- I would have bought it😊🐠

  • @bonniehickey9978
    @bonniehickey9978 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    The fish pictures are so cool! I wonder if the pastel one could be re-matted?

  • @yasssqueen3063
    @yasssqueen3063 ปีที่แล้ว +26

    💕Hello Ms. Karen. I’m a minimalist, but I LOVE the adventure of exploring thrift stores. There is so much history and so many treasures everywhere. I love watching your videos because I feel like I’m right there with you. Your daughter and Roger are delightful. Thank you for being so sweet and so informative. You’re definitely my TH-cam friend 💕

  • @robynboegel5375
    @robynboegel5375 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I love watching your videos! So much fun. I gasped at the peacock sculpture! They are my favorite. I agree they wouldn’t be a great seller, but MAN, if I’d found them they’d be coming home with me. Fun to see!

    • @user-on7zd8yi8g
      @user-on7zd8yi8g ปีที่แล้ว

      I know, I love the peacocks, too, for some reason

    Love your videos- you pick up things that I would have walked past- I'm learning so much and I think it is making me a better reseller. Thanks so much.

  • @karenkernell9405
    @karenkernell9405 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    That pastel fish picture just needed to be removed from frame, sprayed with a fixative and put in a new mat. It was gorgeous original art.

    • @lavenderclothesline

      Unfortunately with a full time ebay business and full time youtube, I don’t have time 😊

    I was told by an employee at the Bins that they sell unsold items per pound to other countries. She said unsold merchandise does not go to the landfill. I was glad to hear that, if it’s true. My Bins is in New Castle DE, so not sure if Keystone Goodwill is the same.

  • @marybrannan8961
    @marybrannan8961 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Hi Karen! That iron thread box is super cute and may appeal to multiple audiences. Sewing, people who collect vintage irons, people who like folk art. Just my thoughts. Good luck selling it!

  • @bluegirl777
    @bluegirl777 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    You were excited about the fish prints and missed the beautiful autumn painting on the right. 😍 Loved this video - so many goodies! Shopping Goodwill in January is always fun as people are cleaning out their homes!!

  • @firstimpressions3592
    @firstimpressions3592 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Kiki’s Delivery Service is from a Japanese film. I think it would be desirable!

  • @donnabrooks7783
    @donnabrooks7783 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    Hi Karen! I am a pastel artist and the fish piece is beautiful! It can be taken out of the frame and re-matted with spacers between the art and mat. Do not ever touch or have any pastel unframed to ship, it could ruin the artwork! Pastel is pure pigment and will last forever if cared for properly. Love to you and happy thrifting!

    • @johnandersen8998
      @johnandersen8998 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I don’t see any problem rematting if the artists signature isn’t on it and it matches.

    • @cheryldavis8776
      @cheryldavis8776 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Aren't art works done in pastels usually sprayed with a fixative to keep the pigments from rubbing off and/or smearing?

  • @plaidpaisley5918

    I swear I saw the shoe!😂..just after the fun fringe boots, & about when you say " I wish I could hear you guys"..the bottom shelf, next to the white shoe, was the match!😏. This was fun Karen!💞..also, BEST Kiki's Delivery Service poster I've ever seen!💞

  • @solj3322
    @solj3322 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Not sure if anyone commented on the Kiki's Delivery service poster, it is an anime, by Hayao Miyazaki. Let me know if you ended up picking it up, I would be interested in purchasing it. 😆

    Hey Hon, that Kiki's delivery service is on HBO. The poster you have looks prettier than most of them; if that is what the poster is about.

  • @margiemarion9437

    Love your channel. You gave me a chuckle watching you trying to open the Santa stocking holder. I didn't know what it was either.

  • @LindaKayHolevas
    @LindaKayHolevas ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Love, love, LOVE the fish pics. I loved the pastel & personally would’ve taken it, and just reframed it. I have large fish tanks though, so I am a “fish” person, lol. The large gold fans were also amazing! You are so fortunate to have such amazing thrifting near you! I am super happy for you 😊 xo

  • @savorit11
    @savorit11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    You could just flip the mat around on the fish picture..most likely white on the other side...great finds!

  • @elizabethwagner6516
    @elizabethwagner6516 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The geode piece was probably citrine, which is quite desirable. If a piece like that was red or blue it would be dyed, not natural. Natural colors for something like that would mostly be amethyst or citrine, or a clear or smoky gray quartz.

    The print at the beginning of your thrift was sold at a Seattle art boutique shop in the 80's or 90's. I had to have it because it was so unusual. It was an unnumbered print with a cheap gold plastic frame. I paid $60 back then and it was very expensive at that time when my monthly rent was $110 per month.

    @seaside2001 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Too much stuff - it is sad so much stuff goes to the landfill, but I think the real problem is people buying cheap junk in the first place that breaks or they get tired of rather than buying less and buying quality that lasts.
    Apparently Judy & Mike got sick of fish pictures. lol
