We did it! Last night’s show resulted in three sales — and our Vaseline glass finds are going to new homes where they’ll be truly treasured. As we went through box after box of our collection, we knew it was time to make a decision: if we’re not going to hang it up, display it, or use it ourselves, it’s time to let someone else enjoy it. Our treasures deserve a chance to bring happiness to someone new.
We learned a lot last night, too. A kind community member shared some helpful suggestions about what sells well — heavy items can be a challenge to ship — and we’re taking that to heart. This weekend, we’ll be adding some of our finds to Etsy, TikTok, and eBay. We appreciate all the support and guidance.
Looking ahead, we’re excited for Christmas in July! But tonight, we’re having a PJ night with snacks, drinks, and a game — a chance to connect, have fun, and appreciate each moment. It’s a special Friday the 13th, which happens to be my dad’s birthday. He’s gone now, but I still celebrate him by calling or thinking of him each time Friday the 13th rolls around. It’s a tradition that brings a smile, even through the tears.
Tonight’s sale will feature vintage and new clothes, shoes, and accessories. Even if we sell nothing, last night filled me with hope. I’m looking forward to whatever this new chapter brings.
I do want to say a prayer of praise.
Dear God, Thank you for our success last night, for I know Your hand was on us. I have cried out to you lately about our tough financial situation because I could not see the end of the tunnel. I believe you brought us there last night. Thank you, gracious Father! Forgive me when I doubted and let the dark clouds fill my mind. I lost my focus on You! In Jesus’ Holy Name, Amen!
God Bless You!
