TGIF: Virtual Yard Sale

Y'all ready to kick off the weekend early with some bargain shopping?  :)

Below you'll find the offerings--keep scrolling because there's nearly 40 listings. Hope you see something that strikes your fancy!

If you have any questions, or if you'd like to purchase anything, email me directly at carolinacountryliving@gmail.com. 

I'll mark the item(s) ON HOLD for (Your Name) on this page when they're spoken for. I'll then go to the P.O. for shipping quotes the first of the week (let me know if you'd like insurance or delivery confirmation) and I'll email folks with their totals.

Payment is preferred via Paypal, but USPS money orders are accepted, as are personal checks. Items paid for with checks will be held until the check clears.

Once payment is made for a given item, it will be marked as SOLD.

Of course, if you're local and don't need to bother with shipping, we can make arrangements for pick-up instead!

Who's Ready to Shop?

After the positive feedback from Tuesday's post, I've decided to go ahead and hold a virtual sale here on the blog starting at 2 p.m. EDT tomorrow, Friday the 29th. 

Sorry for the sort-of weird time, but I have errands to run part of the day, then dinner to go to in the evening, and I want to be home when the sale kicks off!

I've photographed all the goodies and just need to take some measurements so you'll have an idea of how big (or little) some of this stuff is.

The offerings will include:
-pillows
-reproduction and vintage tins
-milk glass
-enamelware
-shabby painted wood items
-glassware
-vintage wood hangers
-soy candles
-and more!

And prices will be good!  I want all this stuff to find new homes...

Well, I better call it a night, but I will leave you with this photo I took back in June, when we weren't roasting *and* boiling in all this summer heat, and I still had access to beautiful, unwithered hydrangeas. 

Aren't I nice to make this an online sale instead of an in-person one with the peak heat and humidity central North Carolina offers this time of year?  :)


Hope to "see" you tomorrow!
