Oh, how we do love a good yard sale. Henry can vouch for that (and our penny filled snail bank, too). We’re holding a bigger than big yard sale in the windy city this Saturday, and the excitement is mounting. For once, we’re the ones purging our once-treasures and hopefully sneaking in a first peek at our neighbors goods. Yup, it’s a multi unit sale. Our little yellow brick building is home to over fifteen units, and more than ten of us are sharing the wealth.
Scott has taken the reigns on this one, including buying out the fuschia posterboard from Target. Stay tuned as we flip this home upside down and sniff out every last hidden gem. Our office is slowly beginning to overflow with trinkets aplenty, and we haven’t even looked past our bursting closets yet. Or the brimming basement storage unit. Heck, we’ve barely just scraped the surface.
I’ll be dishing all the dirty details after I find my sanity (those who know me well know that I don’t do well with a messy abode). Any good tips, suggestions, or just plain ol’ motherly wisdom to share? We’d love to hear the 4-1-1 on being the most successful yardies yet.
The posterboard isn’t fuschia. It’s neon radioactive pink!!
Kim,
Scott is color blind!
^not our sign, pops!
