THE BIG SALE

 

big sale

I am so excited about November!!  The Nester and I have two fun and exciting weekends that we would like to share with you!      Nester and I are cleaning out our homes, our closets, our garages, our offices, and having a BIG SALE.   The Sale will have tons of home stuff, tons of clothes, jewelry, art work, home stuff, furniture, books, and did I mention home stuff!!! It’s nicer than a yard sale but not as new as retail.  You do not want to miss this!  I went over to Nester’s house last week and let’s just say it was complete and total torture to leave without begging her to let me buy everything right then.  That would kinda defeat the point of me getting rid of everything in my house!!  The best part about the Big Sale is that a portion of the sales will go to Compassion.  So feel good about getting some of that Christmas shopping done for loved ones or yourself, while supporting a good cause.

When:  Saturday November 17th  11:00am to 3:00pm

Where:  Wynfield Forest Clubhouse, 15722 Wynfield Creek Parkway Huntersville, NC  28078

Here is a very small sampling of some of the things I will be selling.  Check out The Nester’s site to see some of her sale items!

Yes it pains me to get rid of this.  It will only go to someone who will ride it everyday, love it and take care of it.

November 10,  The Nester and I will be at the 3rd annual Marketplace put on by The Kilgoris Project for Kenya.

Marketplace is an annual fundraiser where local and international artisans gather to promote their work while supporting a worthy cause. All proceeds from Marketplace events help fund The Kilgoris Project, an organization that educates, feeds, and provides medical care for hundreds of Maasai children in rural Kenya. (from the website)

Marketplace is a handmade marketplace featuring vendors and artist who sell everything handmade.  I will be there selling my Button Bird Designs goodies!  Come on out and support artists, buy handmade for Christmas, and support a worthy cause.

Will I see you there!?!

P.S.  If you have a second will you like Button Bird Designs on Face Book!?  Right over there top right?  If you are interested you can also sign up to receive these blog posts by email!

Thank you!  xoxoxo Angela

I Heart Thrifting Party


Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens



Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

Brown paper packages tied up with strings



These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels

Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles



Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs

These are a few of my favorite things



When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I’m feeling sad

I simply remember my favorite things



 
And then I don’t feel so baddddddddddddd!!!



Happy Thrifting to you, and to you a good night.
