Nice People at garage sales

Hi Everybody.
We attend a lot of garage sales in our Saturday life and find most people are pleasant however,some don't like dealers (many with good reason).
We met a really nice group of people who were running a garage sale from a group of units in my home town.

Not only were they nice,helpful and provided some beautiful home made sausage rolls they happily looked after Miss Grace while we were Loading the truck.
 They also understood that going to garage sales was part of how we make our living and we were not just there as rip off merchants.
It was like a party and we were all made welcome a great experience for all.
Thanks guys from a world weary bunch of dealers.
Cheers Lyn

Getting Things Sorted

Hi Everyone,
Since I now have Just two centres instead of four, things are starting to really work well at both centres.
 I have had more time for merchandising, pricing, sewing and actually spending time with family and friends.
So Ive had some great things going into my stalls and out just as fast with out getting there portrait taken.

Miss Grace and her new Vintage Overalls

Hi Everyone,

The lovely Vanessa from the vintage emporium gave Miss Grace the most beautiful pair of 1950s overalls. 

I have found some Vintage Children's clothes over the years but not a lot  that have actually fitted Miss Grace, many have been baby clothes that have been lovingly kept by Mothers as there children have grown out of them.

These overalls have a lovely beach scene and are made from Bark cloth they have been patched and repaired many times and still had a few holes which I repaired with orange felt stars Hopefully they will last many more wears with there new owner.

The above said model at try on stage

Ready for school in new outfit

Dad in on the act with his star ship pants

Enjoy your day ! 

Cheers Lyn
