Garage Sale, you say
I guess rich folks have garage sales just like the rest of us. My friend Toni
sent me
this link. By
the looks of the goods on sale, you won’t be finding any “2 for $1” tables
anywhere. You could probably find some good deals though for high quality
pieces at less than astronomical prices.
I’ve never been to an estate sale, though I always tell HandyMan we should drop by ones we’ve seen advertised in Rosedale or Bloor West Village or other hoity-toity areas of the city. I did score this chandelier though years ago on ebay.
Supposedly it came from an estate sale in Kentucky. It only cost me $45 so
its lofty provenance was doubtful. No matter. It looked smashing in the old
condo. But with all the renos going on in the new house (and the lack of any
progress in renovating the bedrooms), the chandelier currently sits wrapped in
blankets in my basement. What a shame. Let’s get a move on, HandyMan… I want to
hang up my pretty little light.
