Oh My goodnes what a fabulous Estate sale ad. I wish I was closer...we do not have any and if there are they are of modern day mostly toys and tapes...Enjoy I am sure there will be lots of wonderful things Grace
I think my estate sale ad would say "This woman tried every craft on the planet, and bought all the tools and supplies to go with it!" :)
Ooooh I would go just for the holiday stuff...how fabulous!
What a great ad! Have a wonderful time tomorrow!!

There is a new antique shop that opened in big downtown Hull...$$I can't stop shopping!
xxoo Denise Nantasket Beach,Mass.
That's an interesting idea; I'll have to start thinking about what my own estate sale ad would say. I'm sure it would say something about an obsession for paper and books.
I would love to give you a run for your money at that estate sale, :)! My husband would have the paper say "This woman had a corner for every craft imaginable, couldn't possibly tell you what it was but please come buy the junk!" He calls me Fred(as in Sanford) at least once a day. Happy shopping and I can't wait to drool over what you find.
What gorgeous photos of fluff! I think the crafter would say when they walked into the door of my estate sale is "I hit the jackpot of craft goodness".
Can't wait to meet you at Ashland!
What an amazing ad-I can't wait to hear all about the sale! Have a great time in Ashland! xo-Mel
have a giveaway over on my blog.....garage sale bliss/torture. xoC
Geeesh--I think mine would say something about the ridiculous amounts of crafty type ingredients--a CRAFTER'S DREAM would be the title!! It's an interesting thing to think about.
That sounds like a fantastic sale--I know if I were closer, there would be no way I could resist hitting that one!
Smiles, Karen
ROFLOL Angela, my husband would call me Fred too!! He would be more than happy for me to have an estate sale today...
Now all the stuff listed in that estate sale Kari found would be awesome... we do not have any like that around my area... but i think i would come home with more... but the question would be... where do i put it??? I try to only get things i REALLY want now.. as there is nowhere to put anymore.
