These pieces are gorgeous and cool. A mix of metal, industrial, & lighting. As Julie Andrews would say, “These are a few of my favorite things.”

Looking at this regal beast makes you sit up a little straighter, no? He’s a vintage latch hook wall hanging and has me howling at the moon.

These computers sold a couple of weeks ago & as I These computers sold a couple of weeks ago & as I was packaging them, I had a mini thought, "I MAY be going a bit overboard" ๐Ÿคญ 

The feedback I saw today made me laugh & confirms, in my mind, I MAY have gone a bit overboard ๐Ÿ˜‚ 
 
Shipping is definitely my "overdo it" area. What's yours?

As the years go by since my brother died, I can't As the years go by since my brother died, I can't help but think of time. I'm sure, even if he was still here, I'd wonder what I'm doing here & what the point or what my purpose is. I think of this often too.

I don't have much that belonged to him but, I'd created a binder some years ago of a small grouping of his things. When he was little, he loved everything about space & wanted to be an astronaut. He'd collected photos, newspaper clippings, etc.

Last year, I'd posted about how I wish I saw photos of us I'd never seen before & while this is not a photo of us, it might as well be. 

If I saw this before, I don't remember. I got chills as I read it as it's fitting in so many ways. He obviously connected with this even as a kid. 

He was a bad ass ๐Ÿ’™

I completely forgot I had some random Caterpillar I completely forgot I had some random Caterpillar parts I'd received quite a while ago from a guy who ended up not needing them. I remember when I first got them, I sold some almost immediately.

I took an offer of $35 on these parts & what are they you ask? I have no idea. Whatever it said on the bag, is what I put in the title ๐Ÿ˜†

I sold the little jewelry parts on the FB group for just over $10. I truly do like this way of selling ๐Ÿ’™ 

Do you have a favorite platform or way of selling your inventory?

This is how equipped I am to deal with selling jew This is how equipped I am to deal with selling jewelry. OH, I'm in no way equipped ๐Ÿฅด 

While some are from my mother, most came from my Great Aunt upon her death years ago. I've pushed it off for quite a while & recently did a bit of research & listed a few things on eBay & Etsy. We'll see ๐Ÿ‘€ 

Anything I found that sold for probably under $20, I decided to list in my FB group for less & while I've sold quite a few items, there's still a bunch listed no one wants so, I'm sure I'll be donating those pieces eventually. 

This isn't even everything but, at least I've started, right?

Lol, look at this mess of sales. I haven't had thi Lol, look at this mess of sales. I haven't had this many packages, 7 total, & items to ship in one day in a looong time. It's a mix of eBay, Etsy & a FB group. 

I actually got another sale, of a small lamp shade, after I'd dropped these off. 

What. Is. Happening? ๐Ÿ˜‚ 

Sales do seem to come in waves though. Do you notice a pattern at times?

I posted Friday how I sold this shade & was commun I posted Friday how I sold this shade & was communicating between 2 people about 2 different items. 

While the conversations were long, the placement of the order to the delivery on the shade was very short.

It was purchased & shipped on Friday & I'll be damned, it was delivered Saturday. I don't care if it's only 1 state away ๐Ÿคฏ 

While shipping can be problematic sometimes, can we also appreciate that anything gets anywhere ever? ๐Ÿคฃ 

I love it when customers share how the items they purchased looks in their world ๐Ÿ’™

Don't you like how the pool noodles match the art so well? ๐Ÿคฃ

I worked pretty hard to ensure everyone had their questions answered. I was going back & forth between the two & I must've worked REALLY hard because I was pooped after all was said & shipped ๐Ÿคช 

Don't you love it when you're tired but, in a good way?

Well, out of the items I picked up over the weeken Well, out of the items I picked up over the weekend, I got one listed yesterday & it sold within a few hours. I priced it at $200 & accepted an offer of $150.

The customer told me they were very disappointed in eBay. The frustrations they shared with me were valid & in the end I focused on thanking them for their offer & purchase & basically for being a buyer on eBay. 

I do wish some platforms could keep things a bit more simple but, regardless, for me to have the opportunity to save items from the past & offer them up in the present to be brought forward into the future by someone who either needs it, wants it, or maybe in this case, who will marry it back to an original lamp, is quite amazing. 

Let's keep it going shall we?

The large wicker chair & the heavy, hanging wine r The large wicker chair & the heavy, hanging wine rack will be listed on both Facebook & eBay for local pick up. I spent more than I normally would at around $30 each but, I couldn't pass them up. They're amazing & sturdy & cool.. I also picked up a really nice wicker lamp I'm going to rewire.

The estate sale I purchased these from was amazing. It was in an older part of town, had 3 floors with the 3rd having a kitchen, & dining nook. Incredible I tell ya ๐Ÿคฏ 

The buffet or sideboard was originally priced at $10,000 but, I went on 1/2 off day making it still too much ๐Ÿ˜† It was absolutely gorgeous!

Outside of cars, the sideboard was the most expensive thing I've ever seen at an estate sale. What's the most expensive thing you've seen while sourcing?

Haven't had any sales since the weekend but, I als Haven't had any sales since the weekend but, I also haven't listed a darn thing. I've been focusing on making my bookkeeping software work for me, organizing spreadsheets, my inventory, & anything else I can organize. 

It MIGHT be a way for me not to do other things but, I accept it right now & will continue to do so. At least we got our taxes done so, I'm happy about that ๐Ÿ‘ 

I'm still listing on Facebook groups albeit not aggressively. The most recent sales consisted of hats, lacey vintage nighties, & some crocheted items. 

Last but, not least, sold a large wicker basket on Facebook & had another great transaction. Flynn was sad to see it go ๐Ÿ•โ€๐Ÿฆบ 

I, of course, was happy to see it go ๐Ÿ˜ 

What's the best thing you've sold whether because of the money you made or the space you gained?

I've not felt like doing much of anything lately, I've not felt like doing much of anything lately, for weeks now. I continue to do the things just slower & with a lot less enthusiasm. It's just a phase & I know it will pass & while I'm being all down in the dumps...

- I still ship like a boss ๐Ÿ˜
- Our neighbor still likes to bring me flowers from her garden
- The dog still likes to lay on his bed while I'm trying to put it back together ๐Ÿคจ 
- Spring will return as it always has & our garden still grows 
- Putting a new coat of paint on a wall (no matter how boring) still makes things feel new

What things are still going on around you?

About a week ago, I listed my 1st items & made my About a week ago, I listed my 1st items & made my 1st sale using a FB group & I've fallen in love with the process. It's pretty fast paced & you need to be organized. I like the immediacy of it all along with the equally immediate communication with buyers.

When I started my first sale post, I did it ALL wrong. I read the rules, felt confident but, I ended up hitting all the wrong reply buttons & instead of being an orderly post, it was a dumpster fire. I can say it's simple now that I've done it a few times. 

Anywho, all of these items went to one person. I can tell you the prices are lower but, the customers are RIGHT there & active. This whole lot of individual purchases went for $34, plus shipping. 

The amount of work I'm putting in right now may not be a great return BUT, I enjoy doing it, & I'm learning. Plus, this is stuff I've had forever & would like gone ๐Ÿ™ƒ 

Have you sold on FB groups? How did you like it? Did you stick with it? Do tell ๐Ÿค”

I've sold all different kinds of electronics, work I've sold all different kinds of electronics, working, not working, broken & in need of repair. Some with batteries, some without. 

This computer recently sold & thanks to a video shared by @annaestheticmiscellany some time ago, I knew I needed to mark it Hazardous due to the lithium battery.

I'd already known to add the appropriate stickers but, before seeing her video, I had no idea I needed to mark it hazardous. The fact I didn't know has me shaking my head. HOW did I not know this? Thanks Anna!

Well, this went out this morning & I'm happy to know I shipped it as it should be. I took an offer on eBay for $100 & I'm ecstatic about it ๐ŸŽ‰

For months I've had pain in the lower left side of For months I've had pain in the lower left side of my back which won't go away. I took about a month off from training & it didn't get any better. I've gotten massages, I stretch, go to the chiro, I've used heating pads, ice, & decompression (hanging from a bar) which feels amazing but, also hurts SOOO bad ๐Ÿ˜‚ 

Chiro believes it could either be an annular tear or it's stemming from a hip issue so he's referred me to an Orthopedic doc.

I'm not progressing at all in my weightlifting & quite honestly, I'm loosing any traction I had. I feel like my "career" ended before it even began ๐Ÿ˜‚

I'm not squatting because they hurt too bad. I deadlift 135 but, no more. This morning, I did finally bench 90 lbs so I'm grateful for that.

I'm just happy I started a few years ago & having recently turned 46, that I'm sticking with it. 
 
How are YOU feeling these days? I hope all is well ๐Ÿ’™

I've checked multiple times for months at Dollar T I've checked multiple times for months at Dollar Trees & Dollar Generals for pool noodles to no avail. Recently, hubby sends me a picture of this receipt. 

He was in a nearby town & found them at Dollar General. I ran into the DG near us just to check & they still had nothing.

When I got them from DT, I'd buy a whole box of 80. It stinks now though with each costing $1.25. What's nice is, the DG price was $1 ๐Ÿ‘ 

My guy sure knows his way to my heart ๐Ÿฅฐ

If you use pool noodles, where do you get yours?

I picked 'em up last month at an estate sale & I've been thinking about what I want to do. I'll tell you what I don't want to do. If you guessed shipping, you'd be right. 

You know I'm not afraid of shipping & I really do love this part but, when I'm leery about something, I tend to listen to myself. Although, if you saw my post on the Stiffel lamp, I should have NEVER listened to myself the 1st time around ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿคฃ 

I certainly won't ship the 2 together so, I'll either list individually or separate everything out. Too bad I don't have a brick & mortar like I've always dreamed ๐Ÿค” 

Are you yelling at me right now to keep them together? ๐Ÿ˜‰

They say it's the little things but, I'm gonna say They say it's the little things but, I'm gonna say it's the bigger things. This isn't the heaviest box I've shipped but, It's the tallest; coming in at 59". 

It's a beautiful Stiffel tension pole lamp in need of repair. I knew I'd have no problem selling it. The only thing is...I never listed it. I've had it for YEARS. My inability to tackle certain things scares me sometimes. 

I finally decided to list it for local pick up on various platforms. A couple people showed interest but, wanted shipping. Apparently this is what I needed to just make a friggin' box. 

I bought the largest I could find at Uhaul: 24 x 24 x 48. I was able to turn it into a 59" x 22" x 12" box which worked perfectly.

So, I packaged it up, raised my price, reached out to the 2 who inquired which never responded & today, just a few days after offering shipping, it sold for an offer of $225. A great offer considering I was asking $250.
 
I had @mozzwald take a pic of me holding the box before taking it to UPS & we couldn't stop laughing at how big it was. 

While I don't let much build up to list, I do have some stragglers I seem to "refuse" to work on for some reason. 

What's one thing you're holding off on that you know would sell if you just listed it?
