Didn't sell ANY cloth, fabric or upholstered items. There are some beautiful hand-knit comforters, pillow shams and blankets.

Did you sell all the boxes.. jugs and Dishes ? .. you're working really hard now Deb, ..super job...thus far!!

 

[debodun]

Just one crate and a couple of jugs. No dishes. I had a few complaints that my prices were high for moving sale. I did sell some vintage cookie jars.

 

[Aunt Bea]

Deb, It amazes me to see all of the hard work that you put into your sales!!!

 

[bingo]

you have a beautiful layout and i hope the weather is good

 

[Jules]

You sure have a lot of items. You were well organized. Glad a few sold.

Sometimes you can have too much stuff and people don’t ‘see’ stuff.

I’d put a free sign on that TV. No one buys those anymore and you sure don’t want to pay to move it. Does it work?

 

[debodun]

As far as I know it does. I have 4 CRT TVs. I do have them for free, but nobody even looks at them.

 

[squatting dog]

I often wonder if everyone in the north east had that picture. We did, and I know of at least 7 others that did. Cool.

With the exception of electronics saw most of this stuff on an old Canadian series Murdock Mysteries.

I am SO SICK of this sale. It started raining about a quarter-past 1 pm and had to rush to get the water sensitive items up onto the porch. As soon as I was done, the sun came out. I am being meteorologically tortured.

 

[Pepper]

Are you planning on doing outdoor sales at your New Home?

 

[debodun]

Maybe after I'm settled in for a while. No stairs from the driveway into the garage.

 

[debodun]

Looks like that shower was just a precursor. A line of heavy rain is approaching, not I'll have to go out and put tarps over the tables on the porch. If there's wind with the rain, it can blow in and make everything wet. I'm where the red dot is above Albany.

 

[SmoothSeas]

I absolutely LOVE yard sales - the addiction is why I've managed to accumulate way too much stuff. Just how many mixing bowls does one need,,,?

 

[debodun]

How come people that LOVE yard sales always live thousands of miles away from me?

I was drooling while viewing your album...

I recently moved from St Petersburg. In Florida you have yard sales 52 weeks a year. I sure am missing that.

 

[debodun]

I couldn't do it that much. My back is killing me now. I must have twisted something setting up the sale.

 

[Lee]

Deb, it must be hard to part with some of that stuff. I love that lamp in the bedroom with the blue base, maybe you should hang on to that. Sometimes when we move and get rid of stuff we regret it later, I know I did.

Those cookie jars are awesome!

 

[Marie5656]

OK, I am oddly drawn to that squirrel on the the pine cone. Is it a cookie jar? Knowing me, if I were thee, I'd buy it.

 

[debodun]

Yes, the squirrel on the pine cone cookie jar is a Metlox product.

 

[PamfromTx]

It is so cute.

 

[debodun]

I still have these cookie jars that I am keeping for now:

 

[debodun]

The red one with the floral motif is the one I remember from my childhood.

 

[debodun]

I didn't sell these cookie jars:

 

[Aunt Bea]

I like the Lefton's Miss Priss cookie jar. Lefton made or had made for them a variety of kitchen items in the Miss Priss pattern from the mid-60s to the mid-70s.
