I have a room full of left-over unused art supplies and a room full of art
books.

I have a room full of left-over quilting supplies and quilting books.

I have a room full of music instruments and music books (now relegated to
the attic).

3 decades of collecting, hoping for a decade for a few more roomfulls of
kitchen stuff.

Now with news this morning of new hope for Alzheimer's, maybe I'll be able
to enjoy the kitchen stuff.

Anything new and shiny,
Dee Dee

Same here, sweetums.
Although I don't think you're completely without sin. ;-))

You've told me about some of your 'collections.'
Although I don't know if you're into the new stuff like I am.

I mis-wrote. I meant to say, Although I don't think you're into the new
......."

I'll bet you have some selections of furniture stores in that area -- Geez,
I've not seen any good furniture stores since the 70's in Seattle, the Bon
Marche -- if anyone remembers. Even a good furniture store doesn't seem to
have what I'm looking for anymore.

We have some nice shops and design studios here, but 90% of what I buy is
from NYC where I still know dealers.

That's fantastic!

When we lived in Hawaii, we lived the last months in a high rise. A guy
moved in adjacent and immediately started remodeling. When he went to buy
his furniture, he took a trip to North Carolina and had it all shipped to
Oahu. He invited me in to see it after it was completed, I was interested
in the furniture he had picked.

What he had chosen was mostly a mixture of French Provincial and Ethan Allen
type furniture, but he had put a fake fireplace in the living room. The
condo was wall-to-wall furniture. Guess he had over-bought - :-)) The
prices ARE good in NC, I've heard.

Good luck,
Dee Dee

Speaking of baubles, bangles and beads.....I have boxes of beading
supplies, tools, threads etc. that I no longer use. Can't find a buyer for
them so they just sit in storage. I think I'll package them up for
donation. Someone is going to get a bargain..... My kitchen stuff, that I
buy at yard sales to try out, get given to my son's fiance when I find they
don't fit in my kitchen. Sharon

You might offer them up to a Girl Scout troop, elementary school or a
nursing home or some place that could use them in arts and crafts, y'know?

It's difficult to find buyers for anything one treasures.

I've had people see my piano sitting there and ask me if I use it and when I
say no, they'll wonder if I will take less-than-a-thousand for it. A guy
recently tried to 'argue' the point that it wasn't bought at what I paid for
it and a whole bunch of stuff. I reckoned he must've wanted it and thought
I was an stupid-old-lady hard up to sell it. He did everything he could to
make a buy. I would've rather burned it than sell it to him ;-)) I don't
know what will ever happen to it. But as long as I live, it'll stay in my
house.

The only thing I think about is - how will DH get rid of all this stuff, if
I check out before him. (We have no heirs.)

I don't understand this.

If it works well for me I'll consider getting one for either son or
daughter, if it is iffy I chuck it out.

I only give them condoments I dislike that they might like. On the
understanding that it gets chucked if they don't like it.

To my way of thinking...Crud shared is still crud.
And giving loved one my castoffs isn't done. But maybe that's the way I
was raised.
