Does anyone else feel like we NEED to see her prom dresses!?!?
Yes!!! McKenna, that'd be really fun! Prom dress show & tell! 💗
Was just going to comment. Show the prom dress.
YES! totally came to comment that. 😂
Yes please.
YES!
I just want to say thank you for supporting a local upholsterer. The profession is a dying breed especially quality work. My mom has been doing upholstery for over 30 years and its amazing how they can breath life back into a piece of furniture
Here here, I've been upholstering 7+ years & love to do pieces with sentimental memories attached or that will be appreciated & generate memories going forward.
My cousin and his wife are upholsterers, as well. It was his wife’s parent’s business that they took over when her parents retired. I wish I lived closer to them because I have a chair my cats have destroyed that I want to get redone.
I had the same thought! My old neighbor did this for over 40 years and she really loved doing it! I wanted to get my sectional done but it was over $2000, so, I guess that might be why it's a dying profession lol but if you have a really unique piece that you can't find elsewhere it might be worth it 🤷♀️
The “paperwork" found is called the provenance of a piece & they make any piece much more valuable & easier to be appraised. Never ever toss out anything you find (even a basic receipt) with original works, no matter the material! You both scored amazing & beautiful finds & you have a great eye! Add learning as much as you can about the items you gravitate towards & the stronger your intuition will become!
I'm sure that oil painting is worth much for than $1,900 today. You should have it appraised. It's a beauty! Congrats on that find!
I did a quick google search you can see what paintings of his (John Cawse) have sold at Auction in the past and it looks like it's anywhere from $300-$6,000!
I wish I could have met the woman who’s estate sale you went to based on her style and taste. Wow. She was fabulous!!
PS: your mom’s chairs are stunning. The purple velvet was 🥰 everything!
Agreed! She seems like such an interesting woman... The stories she could have told!
When MaCenna says, "What do you think?" I always find myself nodding my head and saying "Yes! Love it there!"
Me too!
Same!
Me too! 😂
Or the “do you know what I mean???” ‘YES’ nodding my head 😂Hahaha
😂😂😂 just did that
You, Macenna, may just have figured out something fantastic here. Reaching out to the estate people to vlog, thus getting a sneak peek at what's there and where the items you like are located. teheehee lol
Brilliant idea!!
Yes but no address added 😢
@@n.p731did you miss that she did a reel/tictoc of it at the time (that she inserted) with the details, no point putting the address on this video as the sale has finished.
as I am watching this I just chuckle because I think it is hilarious how MaCenna does not want Family portraits on her wall but she will hang Random portraits of people around the house! I would rather know the person who is staring at me! lol
I was literally thinking the same thing!!!😂 Older portraits of people really worry me😬
I 100% had the same thought 😂
Same here! I don't know why but I find it super creepy to have pictures of dead people I don't know staring at me!
I agree 🤣🤣 old vintage prints are just as creepy as the dolls that people like to collect.. random face staring at me.. no thanks 🤣🤣
My 12 year old said the same thing as we were watching!
The marble head you bought is Ygeia which means Health in Greek !
Cool!!
Hummm isn’t it the Venus de Milo’s head ?
Just an observation, the price for the Regency painting is in pounds £ which is the english currency. The euro sign is € which doesn't apply to every country in Europe but most of it. ☺️
It's my mum's birthday today, she passed away in 2015. I miss her so much and I bought a house recently so watching you and your mum shopping for the house and your relationship warms my heart while simultaneously breaks it. I always look forward to watching all of your channels and inspire me to keep working on my house. Seeing what you have done is amazing. Thank you to you and your mum for making my day x
I can relate with what you are saying and feeling. My mom's birthday was April 13 she passed in 2009 and it never gets any easier.
@@QueenChatty1 it really doesn't, it hits me at random times. I am so very sorry for your loss. X
Happy Heavenly birthday to your Mama! I lost my Mama last year - she was 65. We were best friends just like McKenna and Kathleen - my Mum is Kathleen too. Knowing my Mama is healed and happy in heaven is a great relief! As is knowing that we will be reunited one day! As Job said - The Lord gives and the Lord takes away, blessed be the Lord!
This channel is a balm to my grieving heart and reminds me of the good times!
Me to Caroline ,I miss her every day ,such precious moments Ann
I am so sorry, it is really difficult to come to terms with. My mum was 66 when she passed suddenly. I hope you are doing ok, thank you for sharing with me ❤️
A lot of studies have been done on the Mona lisa. It’s has been rumored that it was a self portrait of Leonardo Da Vinci but it’s also been said that she is a lover of his. A documentary has been done surrounding the piece if you are interested in watching it I can try and find it for you. I was an art history major so I love talking about art. Love all the pieces you and mom picked up.
Hanging those 2 portraits on either side of the entry to the kitchen/living is such a good idea. I think it adds so much character and subtle grand feeling.
I started burning up the estate sales after I saw your videos. You are right, it’s always older folks attending them! I even take my 5 year old, he loves exploring with me.
Greetings again from Waterford, Ireland 🇮🇪 Delighted to see all of the Waterford Crystal at the Estate sale. Love going on trips with you and your Mom 🥰
I'm from Waterford too.
There’s another RUclipsr Lady Marybeth who used to work at Waterford and thrifts in and around Houston TX. She’s a fountain of knowledge for all thrifters.
You and mom are so adorable. Makes me miss my mom so much. 💜💜
You will treasure these moments with your mom
My mom's not in the best health but I know she would of loved to do this with me. You're so lucky to have this special time with your mom.
You and your Mum always makes me happy . I lost my Mum in Nov 2018 and I miss her so much . Please hug your Mum for me . She is precious ❤❤
Those chairs are spectacular in purple velvet.
Beautiful shade of purple too!
I love watching videos of you and your mom. She is so sweet. reminds me how much I miss my mom. She was the best.
I would 1000% watch you clean up and restore thrifts!! I never know where to start on deep cleaning old frames, dishwater, cloth
Great haul! The little dog trinket box looks just like Kinsley! Cute!💜👍
Love the Kinsley trinket box. It looks just like her! I would have loved to go to that estate sale. The woman had brilliant taste. I’m so happy for you, you found so many amazing pieces. ❤
Macenna, the religious picture that you purchased with the intricate frame is a beautiful painting of Mary, Mother of Jesus. If you made that available to someone I would imagine they would take it off your hands rather than it being discarded.
You found an amazing estate sale-wow the art was beautiful!!
Look at the angels flying around her in the beginning - I knew something was different when I seen that... then I saw the image and I was like ...AHHH.. makes sense.
Coffee table something about it I don’t like… but that doesn’t matter it’s not my house, yes!!! The picture frames would look so good there ❤️❤️
I think your beautiful lady portrait should go in where your vanity is going in the primary suite. Having her company and inspiration while you do your self care and beauty routine would be so lovely
The mini Kinsley is everything!!!
I want to say I love the relationship you have with your mom . My mom and I both love antiques but we don’t have a good relationship so I go alone . You guys are so cute ☺️
I love the dates you have with your mom. I need a sale buddy. It's so much more fun.
That is a picture of a saint & Our Lord that your mother held up they are stunning & precious 🙏 amazing art
OMG! I didn’t know you grew up in Houston! I work two blocks from High Fashion Home on Elgin and Fannin. And been to the fabric store across the street! I’ve bought my living room couch, silk pillows and a painting from that store. What a coincidence! I live near U/H Central! Also lived in Baton Rouge. Love, love, love your channel and your Mom!
Oh my goodness! That little Kinsley trinket box - *PERFECT* !!!
Loved the mother and child surrounded by flowers picture.
I love it when you do videos with your momma. Cherish that!
Oh wow I had that pop up book as a kid. Fran the lady who illustrated it was a mum at my infant school in south England went for play dates at her house lovely and very talented lady! Cannot believe it’s over in the US too !
What a magnificent home full of fabulous treasures!❤
you should hang your valuable paintings somwhere dark like your guest room, uv rays do an incredible amount of damage to old paintings
Good point!
Tell your mom those chairs she got are a steal , no matter how much she paid for them. I have reupholstered two and a couch up my way, and got paid a pretty good penny, I must say to reupholster them so she got some in Great shape.
Great buys. The £ is British pounds (pounds sterling). A Euro is like an E (€). If it says which auction house it was sold by you can probably find it in the catalogue.
I gasped & giggled at the “city pups” pillow moment because I actually own it 😅
This was a fun trip. Thank you for taking us along with you and your mama. You found some absolutely stunning things at that estate sale. 😊
After watching all your estate sale shopping videos I want to go to estate sales 🥰
16:16 Shadowboxes are great for baby rooms because you can put pair of choose their 1st item from the hospital schedule Box pitcher frames are great for baby
That was an incredible estate sale, worth all the effort I’m sure, amazing. Love all the treasures you found💖
Love the Chintz plates and the frames. Your Mom is a trooper. Love her
I was hyperventilating at that estate sale!♥️♥️♥️
Oh wow if I could find an estate sale like that one😯 I would have had to take out a loan and then rent a small u haul😄 And all those designer bags and clothes on top of all the gorgeous antiques and beautiful things... Goodness!! And yes those portraits will look great where you're planning to hand them! And love the one you got with the paper work in the back, she's gorge❤
The cottage is coming along so nicely.
The painting of wallabies is exactly like the countryside in Queensland. I live in a suburb but I have kangaroo in the reserve across from my house. Often see them on my way home and have roo poo on my lawn. I love it.
Roo poo 😂
FYI the floral plates you bought are all chintzware, very collectible and pricey depending where you come across them. Been around for many decades, Queen
Victoria helped to make the first pieces made popular, so the frenzy started and went home for many decades. Good eye, I once had a chintz teapot that I sold on line for $599.00. Great estate sale, good for you and your mom being first in!
,
those chairs!!!! dying over them. Such great finds :)
A friend and I drove to Del Rio to visit her parents. Our route took us through Houston. These two NC country gals were not prepared for the 5 pm Houston traffic.
You two ladies are so much fun!! Glad you had a nice visit with your brother and family ❤ The paintings and frames you found are stunning!
I think they only “visited “ Robbie!
@@kathy5216 lol, true!
I think the frames would look better together. Maybe stacked or one on each wall on that corner.
That MAY be the provenance for that painting. If you can find the seller/gallery the owner got it from you need to do that. In the event you ever sell it you’ll need that. Depending on who it is in that painting it could be valued way more than $1500. Could even fund your LA kitchen Reno 👀
I was blown away with the light fixture at the estate sale boutique. Just wow❤ Thanks McKenna for yet again another great vid ❤
Knowing the the owner had a passion for children’s books illustrations, stories, etc, I’m betting it’s original and quite a treasure!
Since you love thrifting so much, would you ever consider doing a road trip across the US, hitting up thrift shops & just looking at things? Of course after the house is done, but before kids? I think it'd be interesting to see the different styles - I feel like Texas has a lot of the french provincial style available & whatnot, etc.
MaCenna - I was wondering in the beginning of your video did you notice all the angels around you. Then it made sense after watching your video - The chunky image you have is of the Blessed Virgin Mary and she is Queen of the Angels. I love Mary - I have a great devotion to her. I knew something was different when I seen the beginning of your video. You found a gem!
Did she just said the Mona Lisa was made by Picasso? Im speechless.....
😂😂😂 it was a long road trip.
Likely made a mistake without realising
I love the haul this time!
The opening between the kitchen and living room, imagine if you hung a Beautiful vintage garland at Christmas….omg 🥰😱❤️
Love the sneak peek to the estate sale! Those chairs...and your woman!! ❤ I have to tell you... at about 1:04-1:05 of the video, you are talking in your kitchen and an orb can be seen from the roof and it shoots to the right... your left. 😮 I guess it's expected with such a beautiful old house and vintage items. That was cool! Love your videos😊
1500 pounds is like 1900 dollars. Prices on John Cawse paintings range from 150 USD to 5,810 USD, depending on the size and medium of the artwork.
When you started talking about the fabric store I KNEW you were going to High Fashion! Funny story, that home store used to be a mortgage company and I worked there for six years. When our company was bought out and closed it became High Fashion. I have several pieces from there and it was always funny to me to be there to shop and think “my office used to be right here”.
Didn’t know you grew up in Houston. I’m a Houston native. Grew up in Pasadena. Well if you are near Seabrook/galveston. Come to the keels and wheels event it’s open to the public. Y’all have a safe drive back. Love the Kinsley trinket so precious.
🤍
Can't believe you don't know £ sign, you've been to UK!
I noticed she kept saying 1800 dollars euro. 😅
I mean Mona Lisa was painted by Picasso apparently so what do we really expect? 😂😂😂
OMG! The Kinsley trinket box is everything!
I do miss the old High Fashion when it was 4 floors of 90% fabric. 😕 I always knew i could find what I wanted for my clients there. Love all the goodies from the estate sale and congrats on the "find" on the portrait!
I love watching your videos they inspire me to revamp my furnishings and home... love it ❤
Love watching you and your mom and of course kinsley xxx
Loved everything you got! The Woman's portrait is gorgeous!
So early!! Love when you hang out with your momma!!
That was a beautiful home, so many great paintings. The bed with the toile headboard was gorgeous
I ❤ when your mom is in your videos
love how vibrantly you do your things
Hey macenna!! I love watching you ❤
My brother lives in Houston in a community called The Woodlands.
Amazing atea.
❤️the chairs your mom got !!
Yay, these videos are apart of my weekly routine and they make me so happy! ❤
It's always the best moment of my week when i get my youtube notification !!!
Those two chairs are gorgeous !! Such a fun estate sale..
I'm moving in my first appartement and i feel soooo inspired because of you
I LOVE that jewelry box!
Yay I'm so happy you're back!! I missed your videos so much! They are the only ones I actually look for and think "oh it's Tuesday, that means a new video!"
I'm so so glad you gave yourself a couple weeks off though!
When I was pregnant with my first I felt AWESOME in my second trimester. I got so much done!
I'm not on Instagram or TikTok, so I would still love to hear some pregnancy/mom stuff on these channels, but I understand wanting to split them up a bit. I'm hoping your vlogs will kind of encompass everything since they're a little more casual.
Love your pictures, and the frames are beautiful.
Fantastic finds 👏 👌 👍 🙌 ❤️
LOVE the brass trim for the coffee table ❤
I love the relationship you have with your mom. It warms my heart! Very clever idea to partner with the estate sales in that way.
Love...fun..
Wish we could have seen
Robbie...
Your Mom has fabulous hair! I am so envious!
That was fabric paradise!!! I’ve never seen a sea of fabric. MaCenna there are going to be people who are going to go there!!!
Good afternoon MaCenna..nice way to end my day watching my favorite..I love your estate sale finds.. perfect place for those two pictures on each side of kitchen entrance wall.
She had great taste. Her purses and luggage and clothes are amazing…
I feel like that lady was my soul sister 😂❤
I NEED to see your prom dresses!!!
The Kingsley trinket is so stinkin' cuuuute ♥
The chairs are beautiful! Block heels are in style this year.
That estate sale looked so dreamy! That person has really great taste. Beautiful things everywhere.
THOSE CHAIRS?! I loooove ❤❤❤
