I love going to garage sales. Last summer, a lady on the street next to ours had a wonderful sale. This past weekend, I went out garage sailing just for fun. My Mother-in-law broke up her household of 50+ years in 2009. These things now live in our garage, taking up space that we don’t have!

Whether you are browsing at a local thrift shop, flea market, garage sale, or just perusing your own garage or basement, we all seem to have an abundance of them! Place them on your fridge to frame snapshots, receipts, or turn anything else into instant art. Your keys will look like art hanging!

C with Finn, my parents’ dog Our daughter is 12, and very into the arts and science. We had to sell it less than 3 years after buying it, and between that and the market timing (bought in 2009, sold in 2012), we were lucky to come out of the whole situation with our original mortgage paid off completely by the sale!
