Bought Vintage Lamp Fixers Estate!

I just bought the vintage lamps and parts from a lamp fixers estate!  I've been sorting and cleaning and took my first load to our 2 window booths (2nd Floor) at Touch of Class (Sherman TX).  There are some pretty globes ranging in size to a huge white one from a bank (would look great in an industrial setting) plus some pretty vintage table lamps.  I'll be working on the floor lamps (chippy fixers) when the weather cools off. 

When it cools off some, I plan on having a yard sale and do a little flea marketing.  If you would like on our list, just follow our blog as I post any upcoming sales, etc.  

I LOVE the painted Gypsy Chicks sign my daughter surprised me with on our trailer!  She's also reworking a flower bed (in addition to listing tons of action figures on Ebay) and it is looking so nice!!

Too Darn Hot!

While this summer hasn't been as hot as last summer, we are still in those hottest of Texas days. It's too hot for us to get out and do flea marketing, antique shows, or even just havin' a garage sale like we like so much. So right now mom and I are ebayin' some things we've been savin' up for a rainy (or any kind of bad weather) day.

Mom's sellin' some jeans, formal gowns, and vintage quilt patterns and she will be listing some of her bed spring wreaths, crosses, and stars. You can see older blog entries for examples. These are really gorgeous.

I'm ebayin' some Spawn comic book action figures this week and will also have some various other comic book, anime, Hello Kitty, and Star Wars figures comin' up too.

It's not too early to start your Christmas shopping and it's not too late to just buy stuff for yourself. ^_~ We have a LOT of other things we will be offering soon, so be sure to follow both of us and check back regularly to see what we have on eBay. We're startin' out light and will be addin' more of those things you come to our booth and flea market sales for as we get the hang of things.

XOXOX,
Angela
