I’ll be up bright and early this a.m. putting all of this outside for the shoppers…..

Looks like I might be meeting a few new blog friends in person today.
See anything you like?

This ALL needs to go!


Wish me luck! Of course I’ll give you all an update too on how it all went. Looks like a good day for it weather-wise.

    oh I wish I could have come! I think MI is too far:) I went to one today and she had beautiful things, just priced too much for a garage sale IMO. I think more like a resale shop.

    I have one of those heavy pineapple or artichoke thingys.

    Hope you had better luck that I had today. This was the worst turn out for a yard sale that I have ever had. There were lots in the area and several local events, so maybe all their money was gone by the time they reached my neighborhood. Oh well, it all went to the thrift store. Once it is out of my house, it is NOT allowed to reenter.

    Looks like you had lots of pretties, though. I’m sure your sale was a smashing success.

    For some strange reason, dh wasn’t agreeable to driving 300 miles for your sale. Maybe if he’d seen the palm print. 8-] I can’t imagine anything being left. Like many others, I’ve rarely seen such wonderful goodies at a yard sale.

    Be sure to announce your yard sale at a free online yard sale and you can post your left-over valuables in your own online sale.

    Good Luck

    Oh, I can’t wait to hear how it turned out. I hit the bomb of a yard sale, and I was thinking of all my crafty friends that can sew. A daughter was cleaning out storage from her mom after she passed away this year. An entire storage shed of fabric, FRINGE, crafting things. I got a BOX of all different gorgeous fringe. It smells like storage but is all new, so I hope I can wash it in the washing machine.

    I’m sure that your sale went amazingly well! You had some gorgeous things! I spied a good old Trivial Pursuit game – I used to love to play that game back in the day. LOL.
    I have found quite a bit of “stuff” around here that I need to sell, but to get organized. Perhaps I’ll have a blog-sale. : )

    I hope it went well. Yard sales are a lot of work, but it’s such a nice feeling once it’s over.

    I hope some blog friends were able to come.

    Hugs!

    Wishing we lived a bit closer, you had way too much temptation on offer there.

    Best of all by moving along things that no longer sing for you gives you more room for new toys.
