Work Has Begun!


Today is my first full day off school, and work has begun on my garage sale.  I thought that this year I would try something different.  Each day I am going to post a photo of something that will be in the sale. That should also encourage me to work more on the sale and not sit around the house watching HGTV!  




Here is the first "gem" that's going into the sale.  Originally I had grand plans for this piece.  I envisioned  painting it some interesting color and rubbing the paint off the edges.  Obviously, that didn't happen.  Instead, I've been using it to display my collection of Vera Bradley bags, but that's a post for another day.  (Hint!  Hint!)

Anyway, this sturdy piece could be used in a multitude of ways.  Of course, it is first and foremost, a China cabinet and would be fine for that.  I think it would look adorable in a baby's room, especially if someone did paint it.  Stuffed animals and collectibles could be displayed behind the glass doors, and diapers, wipes, etc., could be stored out of sight behind the lower doors.  At one point, I considered removing all my Vera Bradleys and using it as a craft cabinet where I could store all my Cricut cartridges.  If you are interested, it will be $25 on garage sale day.


I know that many of you are interested in the date for the sale.  The official day is Friday, June 17, 7:00 to 11:00 in the morning.
