People leave the best stuff behind! My late husband was a commercial painter for a large company that leased apartments. He always found the best stuff left by tenants who had moved out! He brought home something pretty for me every night! Sometimes, it was a piece of jewelry he had found in a vent, often costume but occasionally good pieces. The company held it for 30 days before he could keep it. One time he brought home two antique quilts! It was like Christmas every day! After he died, many years ago, his coworker asked me what to do with my husband's stash of stuff. It seems he had a closet full of things he had found, so that he could always bring something home to me! I cried when I realized that he went to such trouble, just to make me smile. It's been fifteen years, now, but I still miss him so much (and the 'gifts' he brought me every day). I look at one of them every now and then and I smile through my tears. RIP Bear!
My husbands a maintenance man at an apartment building. He's always bringing home really nice stuff. Im sorry for your loss. My husband has a terminal illness so I'm bracing myself.
I wish we knew more about those letters.---And I wish I had the figure of most of those women! (I did, for one day, the day I found out I was pregnant with my second baby!)
They are safe. All commercial makers and would be glazed over the paint. Be careful with handmade vintage pottery...that can be a problem. The plates shown don't appear to be hand painted anyway.

I think that they all got great deals 😊
The gold ring with the "secret compartment" is from Avon. It had creme' perfume inside
2:55 - My mom had one exactly like it!
$1.50 for the shoes❤❤
Who do you think got the best deal? I like the wedding dresses, the love letters, and the trunk, but my favorite were the gargoyles.

All items are amazing finds. However i wouldn't eat hot food of the plates. Handpainted plates tend to be lead paint😬
