Awesome Give Away!

I was on Craigslist today and came across an ad... There is a guy named "Mr. Woody" and he makes the wooden cut outs for the stacked crosses that I make! I am going to check and see if his prices are better than what I get at First Monday... Anyway, here is the link to the giveaway! This lady's blog is pretty cool too... She does crafty stuff like me :)

Things are looking up!

I have sold a lot of the junk that I had... wanting to sell more! I had a lady ask me if I would be interested in setting up a booth at her shop... I would LOVE to but I am so afraid that the price per month for the booth would exceed the amount that I would actually make.  :(  Oh well... I will keep doing what I'm doing and maybe one day I can get enough income to open a booth.

On the brighter side-- The Pow Wow is coming up soon! I have made over 100 bottle cap necklaces! YAY! I need to get to work on my crosses... its soo hard to paint with all these kids everywhere! I pray I do good at the Pow Wow or my husband is going to kill me! LOL I am so thankful he is so supportive of my adventures.

Making Sales!! :)

I made my first sale!! I sold a desk to a photographer!! I saw her pic and it is sooo cute. It was a great idea for her to use it for 'back to school' pics. I also sold all 3 of my overhead projectors! I love FB! I'm wanting to start selling on Ebay or etsy but I am nervous about getting into that. It would be awesome to find an antique store that I can rent a booth from... the ones I have found are so expensive that I would have to raise the prices of everything just to cover the cost of the booth! No wonder everything in those places are so high! I will figure something out I'm sure. I may just use my FB page that I set up for Thrift Shop Junkie and go from there. :)

I'm not weird... I promise ;)

Closing Old School

I came across an old school that was closing. Its sad to see but I know they have upgraded and are moving into a new school. I love the history of old buildings and old furnishings. I guess I'm just an old soul. So I decided to save some history... as much as I could afford, anyway!! I am selling all that my hubby won't let me keep. I hope someone else loves these remnants of history as much as I do!!
