My cousin is a 4 star general (he was for 30 years Brigadier General Stan Lillie), retired now... I love to see military awards being put in a place where the gentleman will still be remembered and celebrated. That sort of thing is very close to my heart. Thank you, Andrew, for recognizing the importance of honoring these men who served.
If you didn't watch the estate sale video, Andrew bought them for a friend who has a military themed bar who actually served under the gentleman whose estate it was. So Andrew bought them so they would be shared by people who knew and respected the gentleman.
@@jo-anndinardi6607 So you'd rather this stuff end up in the dump? Because that's where it would end up if it wasn't sold. Andrew is keeping these men and women alive by reselling these pieces to collectors who do honour these people. So what if he makes money doing it? Time, money and storage doesn't come freely and he needs to make a living. Drew is always respectful when discussing military items, not to mention his knowledge of the history and era surrounding it. You would know this if you watched regularly. I smell troll...
He didn’t have to say anything or recognize it at all. So, no matter what the purchase was for, I think it’s wonderful that he gave honor to the soldier’s service. Since when did we start criticizing “how” and “when” our military men and women should be recognized? Come on now.
@@jo-anndinardi6607 Why such mean-spirited comments? Weren't these items for sale? This couple DOES appreciate their beauty and value. They purchase them and make them available to collectors or others who will cherish them, but who don't have time or the opportunity to find them. The work to curate a unique collection should include profit - sourcing, cleaning, measuring, photographing, and listing are not easy or quick tasks. I love learning about all these beautiful, unusual items and their history from this fun couple.
@@HopeForUs5 she leaves nasty comments on a lot of their videos. She obviously has some personal issues and can't stand to not share them to get attention.
@@crystalrapose6405 no one will listen as we see the passion and joy they get from rescuing and passing on to others who appreciate them these unique and lovely peices!
Oh my lord look at that little sweetie, you can tell that cat totally trusts whos holding him, Drew, wether you like it or not, that is YOUR kitty now! Best part of the video!
Enjoyed you telling about your finds! My parents were antiquers. Grew up going to flea markets, sales and auctions. Does my heart good seeing young people taking up this vocation.
You guys should not worry about your videos going too long. We, your viewers, love long videos! The more we can see, the better! Actually, as I understand it, as a RUclips content provider, it’s a good practice to provide videos of varying lengths. So yay for long videos! Please don’t worry about them going too long.
Quality is key, pay more you’ll make more. The tree of life is Erica Wilson, I believe. Most of the crewel is. You would need to dry clean those pieces to CYA yourself on bleeding. The red is an acidic dye. It will deteriorate if it wasn’t well rinsed early in its life. The beaded pictures are Mill Hill.
Before you rack up a big bill with the flower painting. Give this simple trick a try. Spritz the back with warm water and lay flat to dry. I did this with a painting I bought in Paris and got creases out. Good luck!
In the early 1970’s, when my Grandmother was teaching me to stitch, I remember getting my first thread that was variegated. I loved it. It was reds and purples. Thanks for stirring up a precious memory
I like quilts when they have some worn areas. Give the piece history, softness and you know it was used. I have a couple really old ones with worn areas. My mom also makes fabulous new quilts. I love those too. She made me a HUGE Christmas quilt in reds, green and creams. It’s STUNNING! But I don’t decorate in traditional Christmas colors. I’m tempted to sell it but then my heart hurts because I know she made it for me. I asked her to make me another in blues, greys and whites. It turned out really well!!! I’m really excited to display it. I may throw the red and green one on my bed. It’s just so pretty.
You are right With the hourglass quilt, anyone that can hand quilt can place pieces over the red pieces and patch it up. This was an amazing estate haul guys
Red dye is unstable, so it does creates issues. Typically you used to soak red fabric in salt water to set the dye. And on cutter quilts, if you just collect quilts and display them, you can fold it in a stack and no one knows ( or cares) about small issues! Andrew, for all of us who have issues with chemical smells, please do not use dryer sheets to make the musty smell go away. There’s many articles online to address that issue and none of them had dryer sheets as a solution. Love, love, love your finds. That’s why my first choice of buying to resell is estate sales, you find such great pieces to resell that typically never make it to the thrift stores. Oh, I love the sheep, many people collect sheep just as a decoration.
To remove odors of all kinds: plain kitty litter. A quarter of a cup in a knee high nylon inside a shoe will absorb moisture. I once got HORRIBLE odor out of three ball gowns using a pair of panty hose filled with litter and sealed gowns inside a wedding gown bag. For Drew’s books: I would put kitty litter in hosiery and seal it into a tote or bag and it will do two things: absorb ODOR & more importantly: MOISTURE. Give it a whirl!
This haul is beyond amazing. So many beautiful, fantastic items. Between the husband and wife’s collections- I think they must have been a wonderful couple
I’m a quilter, and you guessed correctly. It’s the dyes that they use in the fabric. The darker the color the longer it must sit in the dye. Which over time will wear much faster than the lighter colors that have a tighter weave. They are all Very Beautiful. I love to find antique and vintage quilts that are not complete. When I can just buy the pieced top, that way I can go through and repair any damage and add batting and back fabric and machine quilt it myself. They are such a treasure, so much history, time, Love, ❤️ go into each one. They are remarkable, and we are so lucky to score one every once in a while. Thanks for another Awesome video 😉 I learn something every time I watch one! Thank you 😊
At 35:?? The lamp shade...Grams had one..floor lamp with two arms...one curved up with the bulb and the shade hung down over the bulb from the others arm....she called it a bird cage lamp
Kate Ann Bailey easy there, tiger. It’s alright if these little mistakes get thru. Most of us are aware of cranberries and how they grow.......... Geeze, those cranberry bog commercials use to be on 10x a day. She’s so sweet, puts herself out there and does the best she can. I appreciate that.
Good Hearts?? Seriously? Andrew is just begging for acceptance and his comments are so vague. Knowledge is null. Confused states Jocelyn... Yeah states Andrewn. Then yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah from Andrew. Let's pat him on the back for spending the viewers money. Oh the knowledge. I am Andrew. I know all!!
Jo-Ann DiNardi didn’t your momma teach you, if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all? Obviously you don’t have a good heart. I will pray for you!
Sometimes its abouts dealing with a different level of quality in goods and whilst the flea market has great prices its just nice to deal with better quality items from time to time its also good for your knowledgebase and expertise to handle these items from purchase to sale. So as long as you sell and make a profit on most things probably in this case its going to be about the experience. I think it was a valuable experience for all us as a viewer it has been really interesting seeing these higher quality pieces. I dont think you paid too much for them.
andrew talking about books the way joscelyn talks about lamps and the way sue talks about rose medallion. love this video. i needed to keep my mind busy for an hour, so this was perfect. your videos are a blessing to me.
The micro mosaic with the little girl is perfect. The donkey planter is cool, too. I hate stink bugs!! A couple of years ago we had a major infestation. Now, I am at war with them. I am winning. I am on the offensive on the OUTSIDE of my house and get them before they come in. A spray bottle with dish detergent in it is all the ammo one needs. Last year we only had two in the house in the spring....a far cry from the HUNDREDS that were in the house two years ago! Andrew's uniform book is fabulous!!
I think the prices were very good for an estate sale. There is value of things beyond intrinsic value. You value your purchases beyond the income provided and I appreciate that. I think there are a lot of people who just like to complain and be critical. At this age (72) I totally ignore them. Keep loving each other and what you do for a living. You are a joyful and interesting couple/family. 👍🏼😁👵🏻❤️
Most literature reads that after ninety days an allergic person's immune system will adjust to cats. There are, of course, exceptions to any generalization. I'm hoping that Andrew has, at least, visitation rights because he has obviously bonded with Kitty.😊
I love the micro mosaic. The very first piece of jewelry I bought at an estate/farm auction was a box lot someone else bought for something that was in the box and they sold me a small box out of it with the pin in it for $1.00. I have several nice pieces all bought about 40 years ago and I still love them and look for them. You an Drew have such great and informative videos! Thank you so much!
The needlework is reminiscent of Erika Wilson's crewel embroidery designs. She shared her designs with Creative Expressions as kits. I was a rep and actually met her in person once in the early 1980s. She was born in England in 1928 and moved to the U.S. in 1954. What you have could be her designs or the Jacobean style simply inspired her crewel designs. A Google search for images will show her style of trees with animals, etc. Great haul!
Love what you and Andrew bought at the estate sale. Loved to see the military documents and books too. All of the objects you picked were interesting and beautiful. Big difference from the GW bins. When I would scream or yell about a bug or mouse in the house my husband would snicker at me too. Men love to see women react that way. Then we lived in Ecuador in Quito and all sorts of varmints crawled into the house under my big heavy doors...now mice and bugs don't bother me so much. I would yell about snakes though. Love you two...glad you found each other!!! 😍😍😍
I was hoping you would pick up the rest of the crewel pillows as they are amazing. The sampler was still there when Andrew was on the "make an offer" day. I hope you got it. Oh well, I think you did well! I know te yarn used was from kits from Eric Wilson out of Nantucket. I have her book and have done lots of her pieces. This crewel is exceptional and a lot better than the small pictures I wee you pick up at thrift stores. I still want that rectangular pillow on the white sofa. Keep on doing what you're doing. I have watched you for a long time and wish you well.
I love the way you both appreciate the things the other gets that isn't your kind of thing, but your partner is passionate about. PS: that's one contented kitty 😊🍁🥰
You Both are such a lovely couple, it makes my heart smile and renews my faith..the Biggest treat is finding out from recent vids that you have a growing family!! May The Most High keep you Both, your children and loved ones, Always! Holler of yall ever wanna visit San Antonio, we will give the tour!
Hiya Jocelyn & Andrew, I’m in *love* w/ those art nouveau pins they’re gorgeous! I’m sure you’ll make at least 2-3x what you paid total; as you said it’ll level out between what sells high & what doesn’t but you’re off to a great start. Kitty is so adorable! She lets you do what you want because you guys rescued her. Andrew she looked so sweet in your arms but my eyes started tearing & itching knowing you’re highly allergic (bloody empathy bites🙁), wash well! Have a lovely day! Jet 🧡🎸🎶⚡️
What a great haul I think my favourite ones were the mini mosaic and the little donkey, I also liked the painting. Andrew is rocking the purring kitten ☺☺
Maybe I’m missing the videos, but I LOVE how the two of you sit and examine the pieces you purchased and share your knowledge! I learned SO MUCH from you both doing this!! Thank You…
The cameo reminds me of when I was about 8 Metal detecting with my late father he found one on a gold chain I was hooked forever :) no way Drew holding the cat it looks so cute with its leg up in the air . Those tuppaware trays make for a good picnic is what I had when my son was little. Love how you keep all the military history my Grandfather was in Burma in ww2 , he never spoke about it only skirted around it , I believe he was awarded the Burma star but did not take his medals, all of our family drifted apart when he passed.
Jocelyn and Andrew, you both are very business savvy. It seems like the textiles and unusual smaller pieces draw the most interest and money for you. Less shipping hassles too! Wouldn’t be surprised to see your business model and focus change over time. You might really benefit from an annual Crazy Lamp Lady gathering in your area. Something to consider. Good way yearly to clear out inventory. Cha-Ching!
The pieces can be replaced in the quit. My mom made one for my daughter and she used it so much it got a couple of holes. She found a fabric to replace it and fixed it.
If I am not mistaken the Bee was a favorite of Napoleon. He used it as a very important symbol of the power and prestige of his empire. So the it might have been a nod to that
You are right about Napoleon and the bee but this has nothing to do with this brooch since the brooch is much later. I think this must be early 20 th century.
What are you 28 years old. And Andrew what 30. What did you guys do in high school. Study art, pottery, military, & glassware. You know everything. And it makes me mad cause I know nothing. ☹️ Wait; I do know how to shoot a gun, shoot a bow & arrow. Very good at both. I know Fenton, Fred Bear , & coffee. I know about the war of 1812 and how it impacted Mackinaw Island, Michigan. My favorite flower are lilacs. My name is Sandy Foor. I 65 years old and you guys are so much smarter than I was at that age. So keep enlightening me on stuff. I love it. And both of you 🥰
Love watching you guys. I antiqued for close to 40 years. Things change so much over the years as I’m sure you know, as taste in decor. I bought any antique reference book I could find. The prices of course change due to popularity of the times and items. When glassware and all kinds of items go out of style sometimes they are not listed and don’t get the attention they should. So even older reference books may have a piece you are scratching your head over because it is no longer important ( to some publishers) . I’ve found obscure vintage pieces in older collector reference books that many people discard saying the price is no longer correct -but they are invaluable as far as I’m concerned because of the photos and information of origins of forgotten valuables. Even with all the websites available there are treasures in the old reference books and booklets. Hope you don’t mind the old lady ideas. 🙂 I still have close to 400 reference books- old antique lovers 💛never say die-
Hi guys from London UK 🇬🇧❤️ epic video 😍😍....errrr Drew, you know that beautiful kitty loves you right? & Despite allergies you love her too!! Admit it you love how she loves you ❤️❤️❤️
Keep the kitten. Andrew, those with asthma shouldn't smoke. Please, for your health. I smoked two packs a day, and quit many years ago...I swear. The patch is the answer.
I have asthma real bad. This year has been awful. I thought I was going to die. Please don't smoke. They say most of my problems is from 2nd hand smoke.
Becky Miller mine sure was! Never smoked a day in my life. My parents did. Now l have COPD! Yaaa! Not!!! Please don’t smoke around yours or any children.
The patch AND the will. You have to want to quit, very badly in order for anything to work. I smoked for many years, it took the gum, the patches, a ton of candy and a ton of will power. 11 years now.
Oh, oh ,oh! That lacey dish from Hungary. My mother was a ceramicist in the 70s through the 90s and she made me a set of kitchen accessories with that forget me not decal on them in the 90s. The same exact decal. Definitely modern, but beautiful.
Also... the first time I heard of eBay was when a friend told me she received a gift from her husband that was a mid-century branded giveaway for her family's long-defunct popcorn business. Someone saved that item and it ended up in a family member's grateful hands. Your respect for the items you save, preserve, and pass on to others is wonderful.
Good Morning everyone. :) Whoa!! One hour!! :D ! You both keep spoiling us!! Thank you for the hard work you put into all the videos!! All the jewerly is beautiful. You are right, the costume jewerly can be worth money, especially the very detailed stuff. I love costume jewerly, i just have a bad habit of keeping it for myself . Lol
Holy cow that was an amazing estate sale and the prices were awesome. I absolutely love the quilts ,the beautiful glass and the military stuff is so cool. So how much meds did you have to ingest after you held the adorable kitten Drew?
Andrew couldn't possibly be more fake in these videos. Ahh yes. Oh I grabbed this. I grabbed a bunch of stuff. I saw something and grabbed the whole box. Yeah ok?? I saw this I knew it was of value. I grabbed these I saw them and knew. Seriously?? Fake. Fake. Fake
Art is the best! Think of the time someone spent. Ultimately someone will buy something they feel moved by, so just enjoy the process and get stuff you wouldn't mind hanging in your house. Just have fun
Red is one color that deteriorates more quickly. I believe it is iron oxide in the dye that makes this happen. Also love Eldreth pottery. Have 10 of their Santas.
My cousin is a 4 star general (he was for 30 years Brigadier General Stan Lillie), retired now... I love to see military awards being put in a place where the gentleman will still be remembered and celebrated. That sort of thing is very close to my heart.

Love you two...glad you found each other!!! 😍😍😍
I LOVE the longer video! I always look for your video first thing in the morning to start my day.
I was hoping you would pick up the rest of the crewel pillows as they are amazing. The sampler was still there when Andrew was on the "make an offer" day. I hope you got it. Oh well, I think you did well! I know te yarn used was from kits from Eric Wilson out of Nantucket. I have her book and have done lots of her pieces. This crewel is exceptional and a lot better than the small pictures I wee you pick up at thrift stores. I still want that rectangular pillow on the white sofa. Keep on doing what you're doing. I have watched you for a long time and wish you well.
I love the way you both appreciate the things the other gets that isn't your kind of thing, but your partner is passionate about. PS: that's one contented kitty 😊🍁🥰
You Both are such a lovely couple, it makes my heart smile and renews my faith..the Biggest treat is finding out from recent vids that you have a growing family!! May The Most High keep you Both, your children and loved ones, Always! Holler of yall ever wanna visit San Antonio, we will give the tour!
Hiya Jocelyn & Andrew, I’m in *love* w/ those art nouveau pins they’re gorgeous! I’m sure you’ll make at least 2-3x what you paid total; as you said it’ll level out between what sells high & what doesn’t but you’re off to a great start. Kitty is so adorable! She lets you do what you want because you guys rescued her. Andrew she looked so sweet in your arms but my eyes started tearing & itching knowing you’re highly allergic (bloody empathy bites🙁), wash well! Have a lovely day! Jet 🧡🎸🎶⚡️
What a great haul I think my favourite ones were the mini mosaic and the little donkey, I also liked the painting. Andrew is rocking the purring kitten ☺☺
Maybe I’m missing the videos, but I LOVE how the two of you sit and examine the pieces you purchased and share your knowledge! I learned SO MUCH from you both doing this!! Thank You…
Andrew, the kitten looks right at home in your arm! So sweet!
Awww the Kitty loves you Drew! It has adopted you. You need to keep it!
Your green "snail trail" quilt is also called "drunkard's path" in quilt books that talk about 1800s to early 1900s popular American quilt designs.
I feel you guys are great together and are meant to be.
The cameo reminds me of when I was about 8 Metal detecting with my late father he found one on a gold chain I was hooked forever :) no way Drew holding the cat it looks so cute with its leg up in the air . Those tuppaware trays make for a good picnic is what I had when my son was little. Love how you keep all the military history my Grandfather was in Burma in ww2 , he never spoke about it only skirted around it , I believe he was awarded the Burma star but did not take his medals, all of our family drifted apart when he passed.
Jocelyn and Andrew, you both are very business savvy. It seems like the textiles and unusual smaller pieces draw the most interest and money for you. Less shipping hassles too! Wouldn’t be surprised to see your business model and focus change over time. You might really benefit from an annual Crazy Lamp Lady gathering in your area. Something to consider. Good way yearly to clear out inventory. Cha-Ching!
The pieces can be replaced in the quit. My mom made one for my daughter and she used it so much it got a couple of holes. She found a fabric to replace it and fixed it.
If I am not mistaken the Bee was a favorite of Napoleon. He used it as a very important symbol of the power and prestige of his empire. So the it might have been a nod to that
You are right about Napoleon and the bee but this has nothing to do with this brooch since the brooch is much later. I think this must be early 20 th century.
@@nicolethijs5428 True, I just thought how neat it was to see the bee and throw out a random fact.
Interesting.
You are correct. And regardless of vintage, we don't know what the designer had in mind. Nice call.
What are you 28 years old. And Andrew what 30. What did you guys do in high school. Study art, pottery, military, & glassware. You know everything. And it makes me mad cause I know nothing.
☹️ Wait; I do know how to shoot a gun, shoot a bow & arrow. Very good at both. I know Fenton, Fred Bear , & coffee. I know about the war of 1812 and how it impacted Mackinaw Island, Michigan. My favorite flower are lilacs. My name is Sandy Foor. I 65 years old and you guys are so much smarter than I was at that age. So keep enlightening me on stuff. I love it. And both of you 🥰
The sterling silver bowl with a handle is called a porringer, they're very collectable
Ha. They rely on your knowledge to benefit their pockets. Success has certainly changed the content of the videos on this page.
The sign of good cross stitch is that the back is as neat as the front.
Andrew seems to really like the kitten! :)
Love watching you guys. I antiqued for close to 40 years. Things change so much over the years as I’m sure you know, as taste in decor. I bought any antique reference book I could find. The prices of course change due to popularity of the times and items. When glassware and all kinds of items go out of style sometimes they are not listed and don’t get the attention they should. So even older reference books may have a piece you are scratching your head over because it is no longer important ( to some publishers) . I’ve found obscure vintage pieces in older collector reference books that many people discard saying the price is no longer correct -but they are invaluable as far as I’m concerned because of the photos and information of origins of forgotten valuables. Even with all the websites available there are treasures in the old reference books and booklets. Hope you don’t mind the old lady ideas. 🙂 I still have close to 400 reference books- old antique lovers 💛never say die-
Hi guys from London UK 🇬🇧❤️ epic video 😍😍....errrr Drew, you know that beautiful kitty loves you right? & Despite allergies you love her too!! Admit it you love how she loves you ❤️❤️❤️
Keep the kitten. Andrew, those with asthma shouldn't smoke. Please, for your health. I smoked two packs a day, and quit many years ago...I swear. The patch is the answer.
Yes, I was thinking the same thing.
I have asthma real bad. This year has been awful. I thought I was going to die. Please don't smoke. They say most of my problems is from 2nd hand smoke.
Becky Miller mine sure was! Never smoked a day in my life. My parents did. Now l have COPD! Yaaa! Not!!! Please don’t smoke around yours or any children.
The patch AND the will. You have to want to quit, very badly in order for anything to work. I smoked for many years, it took the gum, the patches, a ton of candy and a ton of will power. 11 years now.
I had to quit cold turkey.
Awesome haul! So many items that others would never have access to if, you hadn't purchased them. Thank you for sharing. Blessings from Michigan!
I love books and I’m really glad you saved them.
I found like 5 vintage macrame handbags with wooden handles at the Haven of Rest thrift store . I am excited. They are $3 each
Sweet, Charlotte! That's awesome!
Light looks like a pendant light missing the electrical fixtures. We had several lights like that in my family home.
Drew, I so admire your respect for history!
That book with the color illustrations of uniforms is really a find!
Oh, oh ,oh! That lacey dish from Hungary. My mother was a ceramicist in the 70s through the 90s and she made me a set of kitchen accessories with that forget me not decal on them in the 90s. The same exact decal. Definitely modern, but beautiful.
Also... the first time I heard of eBay was when a friend told me she received a gift from her husband that was a mid-century branded giveaway for her family's long-defunct popcorn business. Someone saved that item and it ended up in a family member's grateful hands. Your respect for the items you save, preserve, and pass on to others is wonderful.
Andrew, the cat chose you. You belong to the cat.
That's just the way it works.
Mary Legan they have to keep the kitty she has been shuffled around too many times let her stay.
A dog, a lion, and a deer...The Peaceable Kingdom.♡
Yes
Good Morning everyone. :) Whoa!! One hour!! :D ! You both keep spoiling us!! Thank you for the hard work you put into all the videos!!
All the jewerly is beautiful. You are right, the costume jewerly can be worth money, especially the very detailed stuff. I love costume jewerly, i just have a bad habit of keeping it for myself . Lol
Love a man holding a cat! 🐱
I believe the first needlework piece is called Garden of Eden.
Love that micro mosaic, so sweet.
I LOVE that green embroidered quilt.
Holy cow that was an amazing estate sale and the prices were awesome. I absolutely love the quilts ,the beautiful glass and the military stuff is so cool. So how much meds did you have to ingest after you held the adorable kitten Drew?
They did do variegated years ago, by dipping the spools of thread in vegetable dyes, it's beautiful.
OMG! Thank you for the bonus Kittah cuddle footage!
Thanks for helping out kitty. She is so sweet all snuggled up. ❤
I am DYING over the stinkbug. LOL! My daughter always shrieks at those and ladybugs.
I had a friend that made a jacket out of a older quilt. It was beautiful.
My favourite bit was the cute kitten, I thought Andrew was allergic. She looks very happy in his arms. He has a tender heart.🐨🇦🇺
Andrew couldn't possibly be more fake in these videos. Ahh yes. Oh I grabbed this. I grabbed a bunch of stuff. I saw something and grabbed the whole box. Yeah ok?? I saw this I knew it was of value. I grabbed these I saw them and knew. Seriously?? Fake. Fake. Fake
Andrew holding the cat was priceless! That is what I needed today!
My jaw dropped when I saw Andrew holding a cat! With his allergies, I can not believe he is not allergic to cats! It was so sweet though!!
Outstanding Vid. Drew, the cat loves you.
Art is the best! Think of the time someone spent. Ultimately someone will buy something they feel moved by, so just enjoy the process and get stuff you wouldn't mind hanging in your house. Just have fun
Red is one color that deteriorates more quickly. I believe it is iron oxide in the dye that makes this happen. Also love Eldreth pottery. Have 10 of their Santas.
