What a weekend! Our estate sale in Los Altos Hills was a big hit, thank you all who stopped by and said hello! There was such a big turnout and lines started forming at 7am on Friday and 7:45am on Saturday. My assistant Matt was in Hawaii on vacation so he missed the action but Jennalynn, last summer’s intern, was on winter break from school and was able to help me with the pricing work as the cashier. It was a big change to be around a chatty teenage girl compared to Matt who rarely talks. Another big thank you to my husband Chris for helping me set up at the crack of dawn on Friday and working all day Saturday. I keep telling him that he doesn’t have to work for me but I think he likes it!
In most cases my clients and their families do not want to watch strangers stop by and shop but in this case my client Ron loved meeting all of the customers and sharing the history of the available items. It was fun to have him apart of it and at the end of the sale he was excited that most of the items sold and everything went to great homes.
In the spirit of this weekend’s estate sale I thought I would fun to share some of the items I have sold recently how much they sold for. Whether it’s holding an Estate Sale or listing items on Craigslist and eBay, I am always selling something. The back of my truck is always full of treasures that I bring home from my organizing sessions and I love that it puts money back in my client’s pockets.
