Well...not right away, anyway.
But I thought you'd like a peek at some of what you can expect
when I have the Mutha of All Garage Sales
this Summer...
This is one of our barns, currently being used as
The Mutha of All Storage Units.
You remember what it looked like before we did
a massive cleaning of it, right?
Lots of potential underneath all the yuck and grime.
Well, we came, we saw, we got it all cleaned up!
And now it's filled to the rafters with
a plethora of my vintage goodies
acquired at some of the most fabulous
spots in the state of Texas and beyond!
And most of what you see here will be sold!
Not sure about the dress forms...struggling with the idea of letting those go.
Anyhoo...
Oh yeah, lots more room to fill.
And believe me, I've got TONS more crap treasures!
So the message to be gleaned from this post would be....
WATCH THIS SPACE!
Sale to be announced sometime this Summer.
And if you are semi-local and would be
interested in participating in an
occasional sale / MOAGS (Mutha of All Garage Sales)
let me know!
Everything is still in the planning stages,
but once I get this barn cleaned up and decked out,
it's going to be AMAZING.
I can only DREAM of having my sale look this good!
But it's nice to have an incredible fairy blogmama like Sweet T
to model myself after.
Off for now, I hope you have a beautiful week ahead!
{ disclaimer: absolutely no pre-sales of any items seen here before sale is announced }

Oh to be closer to you. I need some of those suitcases and the dress forms are wonderful.
Your sale sounds like a wonderful idea but I really don't know if I could part with some of that stuff.
OH Man! That's one amazing stash you've got there. How economic would it be to fly in from NJ to get a deal on some of those goodies?...not so much huh?...oh well I'll just have sit and drool on my laptop....good luck Anne looks like a great space with tons of potential.
hugs,
Beth
I can only DREAM of living closer and being able to come shop!!! How can you part with that super cool tall black scrolly shelf thingy? Love that!!
Happy week!
Polly
Ha! You got me with the last line........NO presale! I was going to ask about the black manny! She would be perfect in my Charlotte booth. I did a post on it, you will have to tell me what ya think! Up early heading out to my packed garage to wash a farmtable down with some mineral spirits! Have a great day! Hugs, Janna
Anne, that barn is going to be all decked out with all your wonderful things and they'll be talking about your wonderful sale for months to come. You are always the sweetest and I will surely miss seeing you in Warrenton this time. No pics with Anne just won't seem right! I'll be thinking of ya :)
Oh what a wonderful space, I could fill it too:) Looks like a bunch of good stuff and oh my what a wonderful SALE it will be!
Enjoy your day my friend, HUGS!
oh anne. it looks like it will be an amazing sale. i saw a few treasures in there that i like. what a great little barn. i have lots of ideas for it. have a great day.
And what's wrong with this post???? I don't live close so I can come, Not a happy camper Looks like this is going to be so much fun... You will do well.
Pattie
What a lovely barn filled with so much light!!! I WANT that brown manequin, ALL the vintage suitcases, some of those sweet chairs......
I wish I could come down and check all these treasures out in person. How fun it would be to meet you and mr. twig!!!!
Enjoy your week!
Just name the date and time!
I'll be missing my hug this coming weekend.
Deb
P.S. I must be tired. You would have laughed at the oops in the first comment I tried to leave!
*giggle*
I saw a roll of duct tape...
xoxoxoxoxo
LOL robelyn
Hi Anne-that's exactly what I want to do with my barn. I've been saying it for years, but THIS IS GOING TO BE THE YEAR. It's filled to the rafters with junk...I mean treasures....so I have to empty it out and get is organized and then I want to have sales periodically.
Can't wait to see yours and I can't wait to get started on mine!
Thanks for the inspiration....
gail
wish i could have a sale. i have at least that much stuff to get rid of. it's either donate or toss at this point. good for you selling and making some dough. wish i was around to rummage through it;)
anne, don't sell the dress forms! they are so hard to find these days. best of luck with the sale, and sure will miss you at the shows.
hugs,
shelley
Boy, I wish I lived close by, I already spotted something. Way to heavy to ship.
I do hope your sale is a huge success.
God bless your day.
OMG!! I wish I lived closer! And that I owned a large truck to haul stuff home!! WOW!! About those dress forms, I would keep them and put them around the house dressed in vintage or antique clothing. I have one in my bedroom that has on three long vintage petticoats (I call them prairie skirts), a beautiful lace collar and a crown. I bought some vintage clothing this weekend and plan to put the blouse on her instead of the collar and add another petticoat. Just like playing with dolls only very large dolls! LOL!!! Have fun! Wish I could join you!
I agree with Shelley ~ don't sell the dress forms! Or the little boy mannequin...I have the parents...remember?!! One can never have too many barn girls to help at a big sale!
Love that barn! Too bad you were not going to have that sale in October when I will be in Texas! I saw some treasures that would come back home with me! Most especially what appears to be a wrought iron shelf and plant hanger each with scroll work on them. Yeah, those two items would definitely come home with me!
~ Tracy
Dear Anne,
thank you so much for your lovely words! I´m so glad about it!
I wish I could travel to Texas and visit your garage, with this beautiful things!!!!
Hugs,
Yvonne

What an amazing space you have! I'm sure you will put on a amazing sale. You are right, your Zapp. Hall friend has a very inspiring booth area!

I love your armless, sexless, mannequin the best! That storage area must have had such appeal for you. All of us in this biz have too much "stuff" that we just can't part with.
Take care, Sue

Hello Anne I have missed coming by here. Does this mean your not going to be at Warrenton this week or next.
I am excited that they are already out there again and was wondering if you were going to set up.
It will be my chance to finally get to meet you
You have a really neat place now to hold a sale.
Love
Maggie
Dang it, I can only see a couple of pics on my iPad...why??? I love that rusty hangin thing tho. I'm planning one of my own soon, I have a huge unit i'm paying a ton for & I do have mannuins for sale. Wonder if I could talk k into loading it into a u-haul & bringing up there? Did you ever get my text you bum? I'm looking everyday for the mag in my mailbox, have you seen it? Lisa
