    I only wish I lived closer Bambi was so cute. I now will be on the hunt for one. I just have a feeling that it is a one in million find. Have fun shopping for new props!

    Congratulations Jeanine! The sale looked awesome! I wish I could have come. :( You should consider doing a tutorial on booth selling and all that you could teach a lot of us. Putting something like that on your blog would be so helpful to others maybe considering garage sales, etc. for getting rid of a lot of our "stuff". Think about it. You really are an expert at it and have a lot to offer.
    Thanks for the pics!
    Best~

    OMG!! Why, oh why do I have to live so dang far from Wisconsin?!? Looks like a "must-do" event and I'm just as green as I can be looking at your lovely pictures! So glad you sold so much of your pretties, but I'm not surprised! (sigh.....)
