...are 2 'empty nesters' enjoying the fun of "clearing out the clutter" we've accumulated over the years and thru our travels, and in the process - "meeting" so many nice people here on eBay.
Now that our beautiful daughter is grown & out on her own (and recently added a wonderful son-in-law to the family) it's just the two of us, with our 2 little dogs, our cat, and our clutter!
UPDATE: On 9/11/2007, Our dear, special friend and companion, our littlest Yorkie "Max" went to doggie heaven after a long & happy life. Maxwell - we'll never forget you, little pal.
...what are we hoping to do here?
Well, it all started innocently enough with just a little yard-saleing on the weekends. Just for fun, no real mission in mind.
We admire antiques, but never collected much of anything aside from seashells on the beach. (those were free!)
The yard-saleing became somewhat of a habit, (cheap thrills)
and almost seemed like a treasure hunt.
The occasional gem we found just kept us getting up early on the weekends to see what else might be out there.
One thing led to another,
and before we knew it we were flea marketing, auctioning, estate-saleing, and avidly collecting all sorts of wacky things.
From there,
it (the collecting, I mean) has just become insane,
but also insanely fun!
The absolute very best thing we found was a wonderful old refrigerator;
a near-mint condition 1940 General Electric Deluxe - that WORKS!!!
We paid only $5.00 for it, (!!!) loaded it into our truck
& it now chills zillions of green Coke bottles
(hubby's favorite drink) and holds extra food when we have barbeques.
It has such a fun art deco feel
we didn't have the heart to hide it downstairs in the basement,
so we made a little 1940's nook in the corner of our family room.
It's a bit untraditional, I know -
but then, so are we.
As you can probably guess - the more we collected,
the more we 'cluttered',
and that translates into looking for ways to cycle out
some of our miscellaneous accumulations.
eBay seems like a great way to do that!
Anyway - while collecting has been great fun, we truly don't need yet another old typewriter, clock, or antique fan,
and I really do have enough vintage buttons, advertising pencils, cigar labels,
vintage office supplies, and old photos.
(ours is a quirky collection.)
