The images in this collage are but a few of the 'finds' I had last week. They're all great candidates for resale but some of them will not be resold. Can you guess which items I want to keep and which items will be placed on eBay for resale?
The large pictures of the Eiffel Tower and Notre Drame in Paris, France are signed prints by Ortiz Alfau and quite sellable on eBay.
The stained glass window is very, very nice. So nice, in fact, that it was gathering comments as I was headed for the checkout with it.
The hat is unlike any I have seen before. It is a LEATHER baseball cap from the Toronto Maple Leafs. How cool is that?
The skates are actually a wall hanging designed to hold keys or whatever else you might need to hang up. It's an unusual piece and the cashier chuckled after realizing that these flat Montreal Canadiens 'skates' were not really skates at all.
The red Cars jacket is an adorable item from the second Cars movie, Cars 2, by Disney-Pixar. It's a winter coat done in a leather-like fabric designed to make it look like a real racing jacket and it is new.
So, have you guessed which items I will keep and which I will part with?
Friends and family will know that I love travelling and have been to Paris, France, which makes letting go of those pictures difficult for me even though I have a number of paintings and pictures that I have yet to hang.
Friends might also know that one of my favorite colors, as evidenced by the walls in my kitchen and family room, is a warm, ochre or amber yellow, which is much like the color in this handsome piece of stained glass, making it another difficult piece to part with.
The bottom three items that is the leather hockey hat, the Montreal Canadiens wall hanging and the Disney jacket are nice items but definitely not subject matter that I am interested in and, therefore, will be sold on eBay.
Of course it is probably a good thing that I am interested in keeping the LARGE items, since they would definitely pose a challenge for shipping from within Canada.
Would you be tempted to keep any of my treasures?

I have a very similar stained glass window that i picked up at a garage sale which never got listed on ebay. It hangs in my stairwell window. :-). I should post a photo for you. Ha!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like the perfect place to hang it, Linda and I would love to see a picture. I am still working on where I will hang mine as I don't seem to have a natural place. It is going to take some imagination but it will likely be awhile before my husband gets to refinishing the frame so I have time to figure it out.
