we got about 1/3 of the building priced today - but that was mostly the tables of smalls at the front - the rest should go fairly smooth - at one point my pricing gun got stuck on $1.00 - so a lot of small cheap things got priced $1.00 - lol! - i ran across a whole box of new fashion jewelry that will be going for 50 cents each..
photo below - this is the view from the back corner looking across to the entrance at the far right -if you like something and it is hanging from the ceiling, don't be afraid to ask for help in getting it down ..
photo below- that spot of light at the back is the back entrance - this photo was taken from the far front corner.
photo above - far front corner...
photo above - middle section looking across the Christmas tables ... the fabric table is underneath those lampshades ... on the other side of the Christmas tables -

photo above - back corner - looking up towards the front ..
tomorrow, i am going to try to remember to get some pics of the artwork walls - seems i heard someone ask about blue bonnet paintings - i do have several that will be in the sale -
you know how you get to the point and it seems like there is so much that still needs to be done? i am at that point - wishing it was tomorrow - and wishing i had two more weeks - wanting it to be perfect - i guess - my middle sis is coming wednesday to help with the final preps - like cleaning off the counter and sweeping the dust and paper bits up -
placing the ads in the papers tomorrow -
off to answer some questions - i am excited that some people are coming in on wednesday night and staying in hotels around -
also, i am going to be posting some pics of the exterior - so you can get your bearings on the place - it's a little run down looking - it is in a fenced lot - we plan on opening the gates at 6:00am on thursday morning - the sale will start at 7:00am - maybe a little earlier, if it gets real crowded outside ..
laterz,

If you should ever decide to move to the West coast and bring all of your goodies with you; I will be the first in line : )
