Same. When I was a little girl, every few months I'd take my mom's button jar and spill all the buttons out onto a jelly roll pan and play Button Beauty Pageant.
Love that your partner was supportive of your (tasteful and thought out) purchases. It's those little things that matter so much to make a relationship truly feel safe and supportive
Ahhhh! A black sheep named Poe? I’m dead. Those art pieces you found are amazing; I feel like so much of thrift store art is just blah… (or the really good ones get sold right before I see them!) So fun seeing what you found!
I love your button review! I have a big box of buttons that I like to go through every now and then. I use them to fix things and for eyes for plush frogs (I fill them with dried kidney beans for sensory goodness)
Kathleen I can't stop watching your videos, you're so entertaining! I'm now also addicted to thrifting and committed to exploring my wacky side style-wise thanks to you. I think it's definitely the Thrift God who prices things with magical writing. I have an image of him looking like Zeus, kind of angry in the clouds with a beard but also benevolent to those who have faith in the thrift.
Be still my beating heart! Buttons! My Mom had an old fruitcake (ugh) tin full of buttons that she let me go through when I was a kid and it instilled an obsession for buttons.
I've been binging the Adventure Zone like nobody's business and trying to come up with character inspiration everywhere, so I say yes to the bugbear. 🐞🐻
@@KathleenIllustrated I've been a MBMBAM listener for a long while, but just haven't picked up TAZ before. Uh no idea why!!! I'm a freakin' fantasy freak. Haha so I am now spending my time obsessively drawing characters. 🤙😎
I know I'm watching this 1 1/4yr too late, but I waaaaaant that perfect little shamrock pin! I hope you've worn and enjoyed it or gifted it to someone who finds it delightful.
I'm a new subscriber and I've been binging all your videos. I'm a minute and a half in and I don't know how I'll continue because I have such the urge to click away and savour this video a little longer. I love the content, congratulations on one year, wishing you big success for the future!
@@KathleenIllustrated ok i maaaaaaaaaybe went to goodwill and i miiiiiight have come back with a cute chunky spring colored sweater, a little western style plaid button up (bright colors and shiny snaps), a floaty light pink skirt with the cutest little gold hearts on the outer layer, and a phone case i've had in my amazon cart for 2 months ! ....and also some matching hand painted ceramic frames that will turn into a mother's day gift.... all for 18$
Late to the party here, but I'm having a cosy binge watch evening of your back catalogue (why does that sound so creepy I'm sorry). Earlier I watched a video where you briefly brought up ranking your button collection but I didn't know which video it was from, and now here I am unsuspectingly watching this video when BAM surprise button ranking and I audibly whispered "yess" to myself cos I'm that cool.
Your face looked like you thought it was weird to show us the best buttons, but I would literally sit and sort buttons during a movie or something, just for fun. Weird. 😁
That thrift store seemed amazing. Loved the two art prints. Are you planning on doing something with all those buttons like art work or just display In something? I have to say I always look forward to watching your channel!
Hi Jenn!! So glad you're enjoying the vids :) I think it'll be great to have the buttons on hand for thrift-flips and little updates I want to do down the line!
Jesus, would ya look at the time. I’m waiting for a new video, in the mean I’ve watching older videos, I love seeing you try on stuff I already know you bought because I see them in later videos. They’re like Easter eggs 😂
i gotta start hiding more easter eggs for ya >:) (also sorry for the video delay - it's waiting on sponsorship approval so it may be tomorrow, may be next week
@@KathleenIllustrated goodness! No need to apologize. That “Jesus look at the time” comment was in relation to the saviour clock, not for you, btw 😂 You can’t rush art, life, or perfection. I’m happy to have old videos to look through.
Little Buddy's name caught me so off guard. I go by Po irl, on every platform ever, etc. And I always use Mr Edgar Allan sir to explain my name when people think I call myself "Hoe".
I literally always notice how similar the handwriting is for every thrift store price tag... seriously why are all thrift store employees writing with the same hand? Lol
As someone who also loves getting big bags of buttons, I could honestly watch a whole video of you just sorting/ranking buttons.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who actually would enjoy looking at a bunch of random buttons! xD
Same.

Welcome to the family, Poe! What.a.find with those paintings 😳 and.. can we.. uh.. have more tier lists please? That was amazing.
Be careful what you wish for 🕕w🕕
@@KathleenIllustrated I agree with Gus. More tier lists.
Love that your partner was supportive of your (tasteful and thought out) purchases. It's those little things that matter so much to make a relationship truly feel safe and supportive
I'm here to defend that teal button!
It's okay, little guy. You're not F tier, you're beautiful ❤
That skirt is adorable. Also I'm not gonna lie. I'm here for button sorting content too.
hahahahaha thank you!! Don’t tempt me to do more unnecessary tier lists because I’ll DO IT!!!!

He's so perfectly Poe!! and I totally feel you. I'm usually just looking at the artwork to poach some big frames but this time I got LUCKY 😳
That button tier list is so random I love it so much 😭😭😭

omg CUTE Helen!!! Those froggies sound wonderful. 🐸💚
I only discovered you like a week ago, but I'm excited about the anniversary 🥳 that longer leather jacket looked so good on you!
Woohoo you arrived just in time!!! Thanks so much for watchin' my friend!
Wait- did Pinocchio accidentally donate his tie?
😂 the real boy became a real man with his grown up wooden tie! Haha
@@KathleenIllustrated 😆😆😆
What was your favorite find? I'm still thinking about the leather trench I left behind (even though... I already have one 🙃)
The wooden tie was funny actually😛
But my fave was the art!
The art is hard to beat! @melmolecule

Love the wavy frame!! I left one just like it at the thrift store last year and I still think about it!
oh no!!!! it would be so sick to find some BIG versions 😻
Loving the art you thrifted and that skirt is gorgeous! Glad lil buddy was able to find his true name 🎉 ✨
Thanks Nicole! I'd say it was a very successful trip and I'm honestly excited to go back to the same spot hehe. hope you have a great week!
When I saw this hit my feed, I was like, “heck yeah, this is gonna be a BLAST!” And it was - thanks for such a fun view after work!
Aw aspen!!!! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a nice comment 🥲💕 have a lovely week!
Some of those salt and pepper sets were BIG money. Gotta love a new thrift store overly stocked with the goods!
I've been binging the Adventure Zone like nobody's business and trying to come up with character inspiration everywhere, so I say yes to the bugbear. 🐞🐻
Omg…. This little figurine is now my Klarg head cannon 🥺 🥺. Also!!! Is this your first time listening?! That’s so fun!!!!!

Such a fun excursion! Oh, I'm all about unusual ties. I currently have a rubber tie, a leather tie, and a feather tie. Oh, yeah.
Ooo what a COLLECTION! Feather?! Thanks for watchin friend :)

@@KathleenIllustrated Thank you for responding! I look forward to your tour. I LOVE houses! Have a great week!
Button tier ranking is the content I never knew I needed, but I SURE did 🤌🏻
The audience may be niche but it is LOYAL. haha thanks so much for watchin', pal
so excited to watch!
Hey friend! Thanks so much for watching!!!
I got a bag of buttons on September 6th (I was on holidays & HAD to check out the local thrift scene)....
Yes!!!!!!!!! Gotta do what ya gotta do!!!

Hi hi! Thank you I'm SO pumped about them!!!
Love the paintings ! And the tie xx
thanks for watchin' nicola :) and I really hope someone gets that tie and just rocks it SO HARD
LIL BUDDY 4 EVAH! I would watch a whole video of button ranking (red clown nose button was ROBBED).
hahaha you're right I think it deserved A-rank!!! Thanks for watching my friend :)
3:34 I don't know why but my brain immediately sang that 90s song...
🎶 What if God was one o' clock? 🎶
LOL 🎵 just a slob like one o clocckkkk 🎵
I did a button collection video but deleated it.. Big mistake. I love buttons!
One thing about masks is how it kind of amplifies the eye expressions in a really funny way
So true 👁️ 👁️ lol!
If you still have that shamrock pin may I have it???😁
lol sure! Email me your address! 💋

What are button ratings? Ha! Ha?
Will u sell or keep the paintings
Gonna keep ‘em! Thanks for watching :)
that button section was not nearly long enough. show me the buttins.
I'm glad you're pro-button!!!❤❤❤

HA. I can imagine you reallllllllly enunciating that "p" right in their faces so they don't mistake you for Hoe 😆. "It's P👄💦 OE!"
