I got pulled into collecting by working my brother's estate sales and buying items that were left after the sale. Those that were too pretty to let go, so I would buy them and then started selling at a flea market. But this was a poor summer for doing fleas for me. In June alone I had my trip to Ireland, the next weekend taking a bus load of women to Chicago for the international quilt show and then the next week my niece's wedding. But that hasn't stopped me from buying at area estate sales.
So push has come to shove for both of us. So this weekend we went to the Mega Mall and rented a show case. We are hoping for a pretty reasonable monthly rent and secure space, maybe we can start getting rid of things.
Ann loaded in some items on Sunday. I went and took measurements for the spaces to make a couple of display boards for smalls that might be in bags. I hope this weekend to take a few things in as well. We will see how this goes. We have a 3 month contract and after that it is month by month.
