Amanda!!! Glad to see you. Also, I speak for so many when I say - WE LOVE YOUR PLANNING FOR LUCKETTES. Please bring on the content. Looking forward to it. You do such a great job.
Will do! Thank you Scotty! Appreciate you watching the videos ❤️
I’m so glad you’re back Amanda. I have missed watching you thrift, refinish furniture, load your booth, and just all-around being you. I really missed you and I’m so glad you’re back.
Glad to be back Mona! Thank you so much for watching the videos!
Hey Amanda-I think the consensus is for you to roll out as much content as possible!!! Love love love your thrifting, rehabbing furniture and beautiful staging. Lastly, thank you for just taking us along with you on your thrifting/selling journey. Looking forward to seeing all your amazing finds for Luckett’s-so excited for you! I agree that your male friend is a keeper!!!! Blessings to you!
He definitely is! Thank you for watching Charlotte ❤️ I really appreciate it. More content to come!
I've spent all evening watching your videos and sewing. It's so relaxing and makes me feel like I'm out there with you. Thank you!
Hello Amanda, I just want to tell you how much I enjoy your vlogs. Wow! I discovered utube last fall and watched one of your Christmas vlogs. I was hooked. I love the music, your content, your booth and its many resets. Your taste is my dream life. Sort of a cross between “Out of Africa “, a favorite movie of mine and Ralph Lauren style. I was in the antique business fOr 10 years as I was nearing retirement and everything you pick up when you are picking is everything I love. You are so photogenic, expressive and articulate, I feel like you are made for the camera. I’ve watched all your vlogs many times. Thank you for putting yourself out there🙃
Well now I need to watch “Out of Africa”! Thank you so much for watching Linda ❤️ I appreciate your kind words & compliments. Sometimes I wonder why I’m putting myself out here like this but I love that I’ve found so many people that enjoy antiques, vintage and staging as much as I do. It has been a blessing ❤️
I laughed, I cried, I almost stopped breathing....and then I subscribed!!!!!!! It's 2023....so I hope you get this!!!! Go Amanda!!!!!
We will never tire of your videos, lol.
Thank you for watching Sunny!
Post more plz!!! Your shopping videos are some of the best I’ve seen, so casual and I love that you talk through them instead of just music. Keep up the great work💚
Thank you Gus! I appreciate that. I’m trying to keep up with a video a week but sometimes life gets in the way 🤷🏻♀️😂 more to come!
I too am glad your back!!
Thank you for watching Patti!
I’ve been waiting for new videos! 👌
Sorry it took so long! Thank you for waiting & watching!
Lucketts, Lucketts, Lucketts…I’m totally up for it!!
Thank you Leah! It’s coming!!!
Love the sofa and sketches!!
Thank you Kathleen!
Please, please consider doing a video on the online auction process!!!
Thank you Susan! I will!
Your Vlogs are so inspirational. As a fellow reseller, I'm enjoying your vlogs and planning for Antique Flea Market season. Thank you.
Love just hanging with you Amanda. If that means shopping therapy...I'm in!!
Thank you Robin! ❤️
I love it when you bring your sister shopping it seems so nice and relaxing and fun and I almost wish she would say goodbye when she’s done with you so that we have sort of like closure ha ha hope that your real estate deal goes through and everything is great success.
I’ll have to make sure she says bye from now on! I appreciate you watching Shelli! Thank you for the well wishes ❤️
The bit at the end cracked me up
He’s such a good sport when it comes to my ideas 😂
I got so so happy when I realized there was a new video up YAY!!! 🎉❤🎉
Ur videos are so professional better and better
Thank you! I appreciate it
Killer auction haul!!!
Thank you for watching Marcy!
Never Ever Ever apologize for talking about Lucketts !! Ever !! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰. I love your satiny blouse that you had on in your storage unit…lol.. And yes, agreed - this tumultuous time right now makes it hard to enjoy life and stay focused. I’m trying to be grateful for the life I am privileged to live, but man….it’s tough. Good luck with your RE sale 🤞🏻🙏🏻
Thank you Cheryl! I got the blouse from Target! Trying to stay positive as well but the news is just so intrusive. Appreciate your support & watching my videos!
He's a keeper.
He definitely is 😜 thank you for watching Heather!
Thank you. I really enjoyed the video.
I think I need that hippo.
Everyone needs a studded hippo!
The goose and saddle blanket were so beautiful. 🖤🤎
Yes! Thank you Sarah!
Enjoyed the video as usual! Bring on the Lucketts!
Thank you Tammie! They’re coming!
I am glad to see you on here. Sounds like your plate is very full. Always enjoy spending time watching your channel. Take care!
Thank you Melinda! I appreciate you watching ❤️
So glad you are back!! Bring on the picking for Luckettes, I love watching that content. My very favorite are your booth resets. You do incredible work. A Super Amanda Fan
Thank you so much for watching Colleen! The booth reset videos are my favorite to make ❤️
I therapy shopped yesterday at a local antique mall here in Maryland for 3 hours. So glad to know it works for you as well. Love your aesthetic and I hope to visit your shop one day!
Thank you so much! Good to know that others do antique & vintage therapy shopping as well 😂
Those end comments though...LOL! "I want to be chill...but God has other plans for me." You had me laughing, so relatable.
Love, love, love watching your videos. You are one of my favorite TH-camrs!!
I love that you keep it real - and classy! Keep going Amanda and bring on Lucketts. So wish I could come and see it but am in England! ;-)
Oh my gosh! Across the pond. Thank you for watching Susan & the kind words ❤️ much appreciated
The couch is my DREAM COUCH! and I love the pillow case you saw too!
Thank you Lindsay! Might go back for the pillow case ❤️
Thank you for this video,it has been awhile. I hope to see more. Be blessed.
Thank you for watching Anita!
Wuuuu. I like the painting and the women sculpture. 🥰
Thank you Claudia!
The chamber pots are great for styling with succulents or ivy in them ! I have at least 4 of them and put plants in them !
I think plants & potting might be the best use for them!
Hi Amanda when things calm down for you would you consider doing a video on all about auction ? I know nothing about auction and I would like to learn.
That hippo! 😍😍😍
That clock from minute 7:42 is EVERYTHING!!!! Love the carved wooden box and the tin blue and white jar for $5! Ugh, this kind of stress shopping, minus the stress, looks fabulous. GOSH I could use a few of those carved boxes for my shelves at home 😍 They would fit in with so many different decor styles.
-- Official Lauren Brown
The couch and chairs are EVERYTHING! I would keep those. 🙃
Ooooh I’m debating with myself about it!
Hi there.... regarding the chamber pots... sell them as outdoor planter pots!!! Perfect!
I think that might be the best use for them!
Thank you for taking her shopping! I love seeing what you catches your eye. I agree, that pillow case is so cute! Tell Mike and Torie “hi”.
Thank youuuu
Yes ! Amanda's back!! So love your style & look forward to seeing your booth .... show all your picking for Luckett's .. we rookies will tag along ! Also , your relaxed style of presentation & humor is drawing us in and... love that Electrician !!
Thank you Kai! He’s really is the best. Excited to share the Lucketts Process!
That HIPPO! I love weird stuff.
Love shopping with you and your sister! Just love your finds. Hoping your big real estate sale went thru!!
Thank you K! Hopefully that will be closed here in the next week!
We've missed you
Thank you for watching Melissa!
I just recently found your channel and am really enjoying it. Love the shopping content!
Thank you so much for watching!
Great finds Amanda‼️ OH how I would love for more tent from you, even if it is Luckettes 😁❣️
Thank you for watching Amber! More content coming!
Love every second! Thanks for taking us along!
Thank you for watching Rhiannon!
I saw 60s glass mannequin heads/hat displays at 6:47 and omg those always sell so well for me down here. I need to get more again lol
Oh my GOD!!!
L🟡🟡🟡🟡🟡🟡🟡VE the furniture!!! 😍😍😍
Thank you Patty!
I see a lot of tubers grabbing those wood boxes thinking there something. They are stash boxes from the 80's. we use to keep pot, papers and clips in them. you could get them everywhere from head shops to K-mart for a couple of dollars. cheap made, by cheap labor from Asia. Why does no one remember this or were we all just stoned. O, and not meaning to be a buzz-kill, but I think you clock is missing all it's long bits. looks like the one my mom had in 1977. Might want to check before you go to sale on.
Hahaha! Thanks Billy. I’ll definitely make sure the clock works first before I sell it. Sounds like I need to get one of these boxes for myself!
Amanda, take a road trip to SW, Missouri! You would find all the deals and kill it in your booth!
Amanda, thanks for sharing with us. I love shopping with you and Tori. You find the coolest things. The couch and chairs were a BIG WIN!
Can’t wait to see what you take to Lucketts! Mike is a great find as well 😉. 💖
He’s the BEST find 😜 thank you so much for watching Linda!
As a fellow reseller who does markets it was be widely helpful to see how you prep and to take away a few things to help calm the storm that is a few day pop up market
I can show my planning process! Thank you for watching Matt!
can i live in your storage unit?? I am so glad I discovered your channel, loving it!
Thank you for watching Gretchen! Thinking about putting the storage unit on AirBnB 😂
Well if you need a house hippo I think you just found him!
Pleasant video- again…Virginia antiques are so different than the northern Midwest offerings. That 2500. Cupboard was a stunner, those kind things turn my mind back to historical settings. Hey, coming to Virginia late spring to see my family, may try to get coffee where your sister works to say hi- you 2 are sweet together. Elizabeth
Thank you so much Elizabeth! It’s crazy how different the markets are across the US
Love that female form piece and the mirror from the first store you showed us!
Thank you! I love them both too. I shouldn’t have passed on that mirror 🪞
Love the sofa and chair!
Thank you Eva!
Love your videos. Glad I found you. Love your music choice...who is the artist?
Love your channel 🦋
Thank you for watching Debbie ❤️
Wow. That couch and chairs! You should keep them.
I’m tempted Kelly!!!
Amanda have you seen prices going up in your area, at the Goodwills, Savers etc. They seem to be here in Arkansas
Definitely! They have gone WAY up
Amanda, you’re so much fun to watch. I had an antique store in Petaluma, CA just north of San Francisco. I moved to Myrtle Beach 4 yrs ago & there are hardly any shops here. So bummed. But I keep looking!
Oh no!!! You would think a costal town would be great for antiques and vintage shops. Maybe too seasonal of a market? But your not far from GA. Some good shopping in GA!
I would LOVE to have that Couch and chairs!!!! Adore them!!! We use to own two different gold velvet sofas (at two different times), back in the seventies and early eighties. Both were so flipping comfortable . I could just smack my young self for selling them. 😥😅 We haven't had a comfortable sofa since... Hubby thinks that all these leather sofas that we've bought (about 4 of them), are going to be comfortable, but they ain't....🤣 TFS, I so enjoy your videos!!!!, Lori
Thank you so much for watching Lori! I’m sooo picky when it comes to leather couches. Chairs aren’t bad but leather couches are either a hit or a miss.
I love this videos 🥰🥰
Great finds. 👍
Thanks Jeff!
Yay for a new video!! 🥳 The head you saw in the antique store reminded me of American Horror Story season 1 😅
Oh my gosh it does! Thank you for watching Kat!
Prayers for you, Amanda!
Thank you Sunny! I really appreciate it
@@amandasmercantile you're so welcome!
I’m pretty sure your Turkish rug is hand tied…..nice rug! I love shopping with you!
I’ll investigate further! Thanks Lori!
Great video but I have so many questions about auctions. We don't have anything like that around here. I know you don't share prices but next time you do an auction pick up can you elaborate on how it works. Do you only see the pictures online, is the whole process online, where they get there stuff from?
Yup! I can. I need to do a “how to” auction video I general
Don’t forget to checkout the Valley Mission store on North Coalter. It’s much better than GW and cheaper! We browse the same haunts. Love your videos!
I always forget about the Valley Mission! Thanks for the reminder Catharine & thank you for watching!
Go back and get the pair of Chinese Bronze Vases for 65.00! They are perfection and will sell at Luckets! Love your videos thanks for the great content.
Oh no! Should I? Did it miss something amazing??? Thank you Cheryl!
Great haul
Thank you Lisa!
Thank you!
Thank you watching Karherine!
I was wondering if you come across a China pattern called Crestwood by Grovesnor. Please say in a video where you found it. My sister is looking for it. She having trouble finding replacement pieces.
Hahahahah I want to be chill 😂 but God has other plans for me! Peace ✌🏼 love it
Keep doing what the good Lord gave you talent for
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Marina!
I wish ill go there
OMG!! I can’t do the Ironstone or any chamber pots for that matter!! Can you imagine….i collect toilets??!!! 🤮
But back to Ironstone…umm hmmm….you have me to buy all of it!! Lol
Haha! Yup! When I found out what they were I stayed far away!!!
Is it confortable? Go away🤣🤣🤣
He’s such a diva! 😂
Umm, if I didn’t love my leather couch, I would buy your gold one with chairs and drive out there!
Thank you Wendy!
That Eastlake mirror goes with that dresser with the replaced knobs….I think! The wood looks the same. Way to high priced in the condition it’s in for $225.00…..even with the mirror!!
Agreed!
Finally🙂👍
Thank you watching Beve!
Good morning, you have a refined taste in choosing antiques, and you are really beautiful, but you look internally sad or irritable, and in general, I like your channel.
Haha! Thank you Mako. Unfortunately that’s just my face. A bad case of RBF. Takes a lot to move my face muscles around.
I can go shopping with you in my p.j.s
Haha! Thank you for watching Nancy!
I would suggest that the WORST time to shop is when u are stressed out lol
I don’t think that cute “cut mirror” for $45.00 was old…. Maybe from 2015 to 2019
It’s hard to tell with those! I’ve seen the ooold one & the newer ones. I agree though, the older ones tend to have some chipping to the back & patina.
@@amandasmercantilethe older ones are usually connected to the wall with metal brackets around the edge & are quite thick…. This mirror is a cutie for $45
Thank you for the video and best of luck with your big real estate sale. By the way, I don't think any of these booths look as nice as yours.
Thank you! I appreciate it ❤️ the deal will be done soon!
Poor cat!
It is impossible to sell mirrors where I live. I don't understand it. I have a really beautiful one in my booth for like 3 years. for 49.00 no takers. Itmight be because of theopen concept trend the last few years new houses have no frigging walls here in California.
Don't you pick estate and garage seems prices would be better than picking retail
