it has been a long while since I have wrote anything in my blog

I am finally feeling somewhat normal. I had a huge operation in Jan of this year and it took quite some time to re-coop but I am up and going at 80% of my old self. There was so much to get caught up on and now my days are so full I have to make list of what to do first.

So recently I have been selling a lot of the stuff that I have collected over the years of garage sailing. So far I have been selling at least 2 to 3 items a week. With the summer here and lots of garage sales happening, people seem to buy less on line. I am saving the money to re do my studio, maybe buy myself a new desk. There are a couple that I have looked at but nothing has called to me and said this is the one yet. I have only been to 2 garage sales myself but have found a wonderful little second hand store not far from my daughters new home which has amazing prices.

So my post to today is to put the pictures of the items that I have bought and sold.



These excellent Fournier suitcases were in mint condition and I sold the pair for $40.00 on VarageSale.


This purse I sold too cheap, only $10.00 and I am kicking myself in the but for this still.



























 these are patent leather purses that I bought at an estate sale. All these purses were in mint condition and very well maintained. They were probably from the 60's into the 70's.




 This is a Dooney and Bourke from my sister in law. I love it but the handle is a bit awkward for me.
 My daughter Sam took this blue purse. It is coming back in style and very sturdy for her needs

 This is a Danier leather purse from another source.
