YARD SALE SATURDAY

As I mentioned, I am getting together with some of my neighbours to have a great multi-family yard sale on Saturday, September 22, from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

My friends Terry and Rick are great collectors, and we’ve gone to some auctions together. They’re doing a bit of a clear out and have some really wonderful things for sale. Here’s how they so eloquently phrased it:

Clearing out 25+ years of collecting. Kitchenware, dishes (including a great set of "India Tree", Russel Wright etc.), glassware, furniture (including chairs, a Mitchell-Gold Sofa, & more), lamps, artwork, 100s of cookbooks, art books, a huge collection of religious/kitsch items, and many other items you may not need, but must have! Several other houses on the street will be participating also! (it's also a great reason for early morning cocktails!)

I have my eye on this Indian Tree china. It’s a great classic pattern, isn’t it?

Both they and I have Russel Wright pottery, although they have much more than I do… since I only have one piece.

I am selling some of my fun glassware, and funnily enough, I saw these exact glasses on OKL today!However, I can ASSURE you that mine are much less expensive and I think I have six of them!

I am selling some of my silverplate serving pieces, just in time for the holiday entertaining season.

And of course, I am selling off a significant amount of my fabric collection. I am just not finding the time for much sewing these days. I have some great Schumacher prints in linen, like this favourite, Shantung Silhouette. Wake up your inner Junque Whisperer© and come on over to shop. I hope to see you bright and early! The address is 1012 Roland Heights Avenue (between Falls Road and Evans Chapel) in the Ham/Rol neighbourhood – that’s just to the north of Hampden and just to the south of Roland Park. Hon.
