As a part time florist, I would recommend NOT hanging a dried flower wreath on an outside door. They are very susceptible to accumulating dirt, cobwebs, etc. and are difficult to clean. Plus, any significant amount of wind or rain will just ruin them.
So true! I rented a cottage a a dried floral wreath outside one door. It accumulated dust and cobwebs, and when I went to clean it some of it fell apart xx
I'm not a florist but yes inside is better for I learned the way because all of mine attracted different birds and they all built nests! Very cool to watch though! (But then you have to throw them out for they used most of the steps for their nest!)
The cup glued to the saucer is mounted to a post and then you put bird seed in the cup and the birds can perch on the saucer. They are super cute whimsical garden art.
At 19:47, the parrot hook, place it on the wall in the shop, put your keys on the hooks every time you come to the shop. You will always know where to find them.
Miss Laurel put a stop to the dead flower conversation quick! She has a lot of pull! 🤣. When she speaks you listen! It's crazy that Goodwill prices items higher than the antique malls. 🫤
You have perfect timing for the mums as long as they have tons of buds - that's exactly what you want! Then you get to enjoy the flowers and not the garden center. ISN'T FALL THE BEST??!!

I love that first store that is only about 5 minutes from my house. 😊 FYI: You can spray your new dried wreath with hairspray to keep the small pieces from coming off.
You might remind Andrew that in addition to the "dead dry flowers" You are also paying for the talent of the crafter who made the wreath! Also, the art work you put back, looked like it might be marbled paper.
Wreaths are so easy to make! Use pins and ribbons to keep everything in place, or even a gluegun you can put flowers ,ornaments, berries, toys, candy anything goes!!!
Hey Jos’ love watching you, I’ve learned so much! I’m glad I was laying down because I would have fell down, when I saw the worth of so many items from my childhood that sold for and I gave away due to space that people bought for so much money, lol I agree with Andrew, never pay a lot of money for dried flowers, there’s fix it, and hair spray that hold them together, but storing it hem for the next season they still fall apart unless they’re in glass. You can buy a wreath from hobby lobby , or the dollar tree. Buy some fabric flowers from the same two places and make it a family project with your children. I’ve been making wreaths for years, and people always want me to make them one, but they are expensive to make or buy, and they never want to pay the price! The wreath pic’s flowers ribbon etc can add up! You making your own is easy, and you are the one that picks the colors you want. Glue guns are very, very hot, so buy a grape vine wreath base, have some wire cutters or pruning shears and all you have to do it stick your decorations in, make or buy a big bow tie it on with floral wire or twine and hang. You can make all of your seasonal wreath and they will have your family’ personal touch. The children are growing, I remember when Juliet was sitting in the shopping cart, lol they are so loving towards their baby sister and Andrew is so cute kissy dad.
I laughed and then had to listen to him again to make sure I heard correctly! $70 for dried up flowers! It looks like the black wreath is just cedar branches covered with a light spray of black paint. I've done the same thing when making Halloween wreaths but I've always add addiction details on top of the braches!
WOW - That goodwill is a million times better than the one here I normally go to in SC lately. There's one I use to go to and now its literally empty shelves like hardly anything out, You 're VERY lucky to have this kid of inventory! And little Laurel is getting so big- she's SO adorable!!
when buying mums select plants with mostly closed buds and healthy foliage. Plants that are already in full bloom will not be attractive as long. Avoid plants whose flowers have already begun to fade. Keep them well watered
Aloe is a must in the kitchen for burns,my mom always kept one there and I do too!! May I be so bold as to say that I feel that Laurel just brings your relationship with Andrew even sweeter and it is lovely to see.
I think your “acid trip” piece is a framed piece of marbled paper or even silk. Possibly made in us or looks like Ebru style marbleized venetian work. Love your sweet family!
As always, thanks for taking us along. The white divided plates @ 16:22 are actually fondue plates. And the parrot hook would be perfect hung by the shop door for your keys! *wink* Can't wait to see your completed Halloween decorations! 💙
I so enjoyed the way this video started out with you and Andrew and Laurel shopping together. I was cracking up when you tried to get Laurel to back you up when Andrew was giving you a hard time about the dry flower wreath. 😂
Well, maybe not a lot of Goodwills have begun new pricing structures but mine certainly has gotten pricier. Vera Bradley's are about 30.00, glassware is up to 7. A piece, I saw a fossil wallet for about 40.00. At my stores absolutely nothing exists under 2.00 _ even if it's an empty box. It's a fun hobby, but increasingly unaffordable. I no longer pick up every day items "since I'm there", and increasingly just browse for "finds". Not a reseller so only speaking as a non resell consumer. Maybe it still works as a shopping source for resellers or for specific items such as clothing or certain hard goods, but not all.
I totally agree.. I like to shop but if you are not a reseller it is cheaper for me to go to estate sales. We have three to four every weekend and the prices are getting lower than rummage sales. Our GW will sell a sheet set or comforter set higher than a department store...no thanks. I did find a beautiful Lands End cotton and cashmere cardigan...like new for 3.99.
As a reseller, I can tell you they have priced a lot of us out. There is an entire group of resellers that I know and shop together with, and we all spend much less money there now. So I question how this has all worked out for them. They've priced out the resellers, and the people who actually need the goods at a discount for personal use who now can't afford to shop there anymore. They have gone completely overboard with greed. So I'm not sure exactly how this is a winning strategy for them. It's just creating a lot of people that won't shop there anymore and more goods that don't sell and end up at the Goodwill by the pound outlets. As a reseller, I can find items at a good price elsewhere, but what concerns me is the people who can't afford to shop anywhere else. So much for the Goodwill mission. 🤷♀️
Jocelyn I think the glasses & matching shot glasses are quarts made by( Durobor 0342/07 Quartz A3420007 2.5 Oz Shot Glass) this is the site description. Hope this helps.
The 8 salad plates would dress up a table. Solid plates and bowls to coordinate. I have salad and/or appetizer plates for every occasion to change up the table. Its hard to do anything with the 5bowls
You talking about decorating your porch reminds me of when my kids were little. I bought 2 huge corn stalks, multicolored dry corn on the cob, and hay bales. I spent about an hour setting it up. Within 20 minutes the squirrels had stripped the bunches of dried corn down to the cobs. 6 total. Then they tore the corn stalks apart and scattered them across the porch. The mice had moved into the hay bales by the next day. I gave up and put plastic pumpkins out there after that.🤣😂🤣
🌸 tend to agree with Florist comment,dried flower wreaths should not be used outside and there are So many ways to spray paint a “used “wreath black or orange, (in your spare time 😂) maybe Juliet and Ashton would have fun helping 💕2 ALL
I walked in to my local Lowe's the other day and BAM! there's their Christmas display with a lit snowman arch, 2 full sized Santas and all the Christmas trees. You cannot miss it! Plus the employees were bringing out huge boxes on carts of more Christmas items. No supply chain issues here! Halloween was right across the aisle. Lots and lots of Halloween inflatables and other decor.
I loved the dried flower wreath I had. But have to say it was delicate and didn’t last as long as I wanted it to. Just an FYI 😊 Laurel is so adorable ♥️ Fast exit when Laurel started crying 😂
The little shell dishes are Cambridge Glass. I'm sure you already knew that! I researched it after finding a light blue one at a garage sale. Nut, candy, or salt dishes? They're so darling.
Right at the end. You said you loved the moon and stars, when you really meant sun and moon. We know you love your glass so moon and stars just naturally rolled off the tongue. (Good will is one of my favs to watch(
OMG that opening!!!! My flower beds are nice and colorful still but the echinacea are done and I am letting them dry where they are because their cones are cool for winter-interest. My daughter and her grandma go to look at the flowers Grandma: ohhhhh the flowers look so beautiful!! (About the living ones) Daughter: ummm they’re dead. (Focusing on the echinacea) It was so funny. Just like the wreath. Actually wreath prices are what for me into watching Garden Answer videos.
The best thing about buying mums that doesn't have all the buds open yet is that the plants will last much longer & you will enjoy them well into November.
Have to say, I'm with Andrew and baby Laurel on the wreath. I make them to sell and to me, that one was about 20.00 too much. Live 5he things you found in Goodwill. Now to see a sold video!!!! 🙌🙏

I bet she knows that. Maybe it's going on the door in the sunroom door .that goes into the house. Or behind a storm door.
Hi fellow florist. I've been a florist for 43 years now.
You are absolutely correct about the dry wreath. It needs to stay inside.
I'm not a florist but yes inside is better for I learned the way because all of mine attracted different birds and they all built nests! Very cool to watch though! (But then you have to throw them out for they used most of the steps for their nest!)
I bought a sealant recommended for my moss cornucopia. It was getting everywhere before I could make something, was doing to use it as a nome hat.

Love Andrew - $70 for dead flowers??? - laughed out loud! Laurel is getting so big. Your family is precious.
I feel the same way as Andrew.
Spray paint an old Christmas wreath black 🤓
I would rather spend that kind of money on a wreath that will last for YEARS rather than $70 on real flowers that will die within a week or two!
@@sewsusieque Or any old wreath for that matter.
She works really hard. She deserves a reward
You want to buy mums just before they're blooming, so you can enjoy them through the whole blooming period.
Miss Laurel put a stop to the dead flower conversation quick! She has a lot of pull! 🤣. When she speaks you listen!
It's crazy that Goodwill prices items higher than the antique malls. 🫤
You have perfect timing for the mums as long as they have tons of buds - that's exactly what you want! Then you get to enjoy the flowers and not the garden center. ISN'T FALL THE BEST??!!
Exactly
Don’t forget to water everyday!
I got a cup glued to the saucer as a planter by glueing it makes it more stable ..
At 9:19, they are Cambridge Caprice nut dishes, they came in a set of 4 with a covered box. They are seashells, not leaves. They were in blue, pink, green, yellow, clear.
Wow you sound so harsh 😮
@@kelliwillis417 Facts, just the facts. That way she can look them up.
@@kelliwillis417 text has no tone. It didn't strike me as harsh.
I’ve already seen Xmas things in stores & it’s not even October! When I was growing up you never saw it before Thanksgiving.😮
Baby Laurel is so precious & so healthy & a happy baby!!
Oh you wanna buy mums BEFORE they flower. They really only have one flush of blooms and then they’re done. Ornamental Kale is very colorful for fall
I purposely look for Mums that still have the closed buds. My Mom (who has a very bright green thumb lol) taught me that because they last longer.

I’m with Andrew on the dead flowers 😮
That artwork was marbleized paper. It is used for endpapers in bookbinding.
that is the kind of mum you want that way they last through the season
The praying hands were arthritic. You get a whole point...🙏
Yea!!! You had your light...good for you!
I love that first store that is only about 5 minutes from my house. 😊
FYI: You can spray your new dried wreath with hairspray to keep the small pieces from coming off.
They’re praying hands lol, just old arthritic hands as I can relate to. Thank you for all your great videos!
I love to watch you shop! It’s so interesting in what you like and what you find valuable and good for resale. Your Goodwills are really nice there!
Plastic wreaths cost that much and the dried are much more charming!
You might remind Andrew that in addition to the "dead dry flowers" You are also paying for the talent of the crafter who made the wreath! Also, the art work you put back, looked like it might be marbled paper.
If you want the wreath get it.you work hard for what you have. You don’t buy that much for yourself.
Baby Laurel was soooo NOT having those dried flowers 😂 ❤
takes after Dad!
😆 That was my thought too!!
Wreaths are so easy to make! Use pins and ribbons to keep everything in place, or even a gluegun you can put flowers ,ornaments, berries, toys, candy anything goes!!!
The Dandelion pattern bowl is Taylor Smith & Taylor.
The frame with the "acid trip"... that is marbled paper, once commonly used as end papers in books. :)
I never saw anything like that tripping in the 70's lol.
It looks like a pathology slide lol

Enjoyed your video live the dried flowered wreath Andrews comment is exactly what my husband would say I love seeing Laurel she is getting so big
The Acid Trip looks like Neurographic Art

I’m cheering! The 70s LSD artwork didn’t make the cart check! Hooray!
That’s how you want to buy the mums, that way they will last longer this way.
For the black wreath, get a green one and spray paint it black.
The black wreath is arborvitae’s spray painted black!
I agree with Dad. Dried up dead flowers. Just a little pricey
That’s honestly what wreath go for today. They can be really pricey
I love them and buy them often. Everything is pricey. Lol.
when buying mums select plants with mostly closed buds and healthy foliage. Plants that are already in full bloom will not be attractive as long. Avoid plants whose flowers have already begun to fade. Keep them well watered
Just a tip I learned about oil lamps... The maker and patent date are often on the wick adjustment know thingy.
Nice video, good idea to do a cart review before checkout, I like that you’ve started doing that as part of your routine, good job!
Aloe is a must in the kitchen for burns,my mom always kept one there and I do too!!
May I be so bold as to say that I feel that Laurel just brings your relationship with Andrew even sweeter and it is lovely to see.
RUFFIAN was a famous FEMALE Racehorse who left a huge legacy after her tragic death in 1975. Her stuff is VALUABLE!
I just bought that same spider plant Love it the shoots grow up instead of down
I would send you a picture of mine but they are so cool right now I have a shoot/baby wrapping around the whole planter
I think your “acid trip” piece is a framed piece of marbled paper or even silk. Possibly made in us or looks like Ebru style marbleized venetian work. Love your sweet family!
Andrew: we have plenty of dried up dead flowers in our yard 😂🤣😆
Love seeing Baby Laurel.
As always, thanks for taking us along. The white divided plates @ 16:22 are actually fondue plates. And the parrot hook would be perfect hung by the shop door for your keys! *wink* Can't wait to see your completed Halloween decorations! 💙
I am so glad you told us what those are. I always thought maybe they were for olives, pickles etc.
Laurel is so cute !!! Love her smile.
Picture is called a pour paint. A relatively new craft. You put layers of paint in a cup and dump it.
Laurel is so precious! I love your channel. You and Andrew are so happy together! Your followers love you!
People make planters out of those big cups and saucers, gluing them together.
I love your black light when I saw in one of your last videos. So I went to go find one on Amazon I love the fact that you can recharge it.
What a gorgeous colour the sunset orange mums is!!
OMG!! She is so beautiful! You guys crack me up so hard lol I love your family!
Nice find on the BONNIE SPIDER PLANT!
Dagny picked up the ' God bless our camper ' thingee too . 😉😊
Spray paint cheap wreath black for Halloween. Good quality dried flowers can cost more.
That little tiny gray owl is Otagiri. I bought one just like it with an owl cup from Dagny's ebay store!
I would have loved those divided plates! I am one of those….
Your videos are the highlight of my day. Enjoy so much seeing your family .
Those divided plates are for fondue, very big in the 50-70’s. I have an orange melamine set. I’d love ceramic ones.
The pink might glow, I've seen claer, green, blue, red and pink uranium glass. I'm so jealous of the pieces you find.
Be sure you keep the mums watered. If they dry out, the blooms won’t open.
I love decorating for fall! Enjoy! Laurel is precious!

So true but so funny!!!
Little lady needs sunglasses.what does she think about the birds.i know she gets prettier each time I see her,and trying to talk. Give hug for me.
Did you get the wreath after all that? Maybe I missed something. Andrew is pretty funny with his comments and Laurel is getting so big!!
The white plates with divided sections are fondue plates.
That was so funny,in both shops they had “thriller” from Michael Jackson playing..😄
Love Laurel’s eyes!💜 I simply too love the Sun and Moon .😍😍😍
The serving bowl with the blue flowers is Taylor-Smith Blue Lace and I sell platters and that size serving bowl in my booth for about $29.
That’s good that they are not flowering yet they last longer

I think the planter with the glasses was supposed to be Ruth Bader Ginsberg. She had lipstick on.

I think Dagney looked at that camper wooden sign recently.
LOVE the dried flower wreath Dried flowers are not the same as dead. 🌺
The best thing about buying mums that doesn't have all the buds open yet is that the plants will last much longer & you will enjoy them well into November.
The dried wreath place it where wind doesn't doesn't blow .
Great stuff love that sun and moon
Very cool
