Hey everyone,  it's "yard sale" time & my favorite past time !

by: Kat ( Mary) Carlson _ author/publisher


This Saturday,  August 1, 2015,  I will conduct my 2nd "yard sale" here in Ojai, CA.  The first was over three years ago.  However, In Glendale CA,  ( my former place of residence) I was a "yard sale guru"......................................:)  It was "loads" of FUN & I enjoyed enough profit to keep up my habit of "shopping" !!    Much of my time here in Ojai, Ca since May 2015 has been spent on other things.  Tree trimming,  raking leaves,  laying bricks,  "planting" ( mostly succulents-very little water in CA ),  , walking up-the-hill,  visiting the stables along the way and my friend Vicki my buddy Red....pic below

This dynamic duo attracts my devotion "frequently,"  Vicki & RED

 

 

In fact,  Vicki & her blue truck made a run with me to put up signs for my "YARD SALE".  Vicki and I were out & about as folks were coming home from their work places.  As we were putting up signs ( incidentally,  if you look closely, I made signs out of pillow-cases), now don't scoff,  they are perfect.  No running around looking for cardboard,  cutting them up,  or what have you).
Think I might have just started a trend.........................................:)  The "thrift stores have oodles of  pillow cases for cheap.   I had extra yard sticks and so I put one -half of one on top.
the other on the bottom  ,  making a secure way to hang/hammer them into telephone polls. " see pic.....

Finding alternatives is my forte',  I love being creative

  
 
 I make custom jewelry which includes earrings,  necklaces ( a creation of mine is a gorgeous pendant front & a back of a pretty watch combo.  The ladies are smitten by them and in Glendale they caught on with many as gifts for loved ones and themselves.  So many of my original items will be up-for-sale this Saturday,  Aug 1, 2015 !! This is only one example

Picture quality not the best,  but this necklace I made out of left-over abalone shells.   In person the colors are really vibrant. ( greens & blues)

 

 

 

 

Lots of other odds & ends for SALE in just two days.  My Fundraiser campaign is still continuing
www.giveforward.com (Transportation Golf Cart) and ends middle October.   So,  still time to make YOUR contribution.    By this Christmas,  I will be driving my new Golf cart !!!   Going up-the-hill and lots "MORE" places,  like CHRISTMAS shopping. ........................................:)


 Maybe there is "stuff" in you closets, garage or whatever you'd like to sell,  Take a chance,  it is "SO " much fun.  Folks who stop by are fabulously friendly,  that's the BEST !!!  Do yourself a favor,  get acquainted  with your "community" .

Hey,  ya think these guys will come ?
