The Bottomless Ebay Shelf

Good news on the Ebay-a-Thon!!  My items have been selling and after Ebay and Paypal are done with a sale,  and I pack up and label each package and then schlep them to the post office and discover how I undercharged for shipping.... a little bit o' money trickles my way!

Its just a few bucks here and there, but its a nice back-up for putting gas in the ol' wagon or buying some groceries or heaven sakes....some gifts!

Thanks to the window painting gig, I was also able to finally purchase my plane tix back to Ohio for the lofty sum of $525!!  That folks, is 1.5 times more money than I make in a week at my day job!  Gak!  Oh well, it'll be worth it to get felt up by a TSA agent and be x-rayed and have all my belongings rifled through and be charged for any extra baggage I have and....oh wait...am I sounding Bah-Humbuggy?  OK, OK, lets get back in the mood here...Let me just put on some tunes...


Ah yeahh.....I feel better already!!

Here are some more of my Ebay offerings...Some are Christmas...some are just plain neat.  If you see something you like, please check out the auction or pass it on to your Vintage Lovin' Buddies.  Don't forget to tell Santa too.  Thanks folk's and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Vintage Frosted Glass Ceiling Light Fixture Covers
I had picked these up to go in my own apartment but they didn't retro-fit to my newer light fixtures, and since I rent, I'm not gonna go rewiring the place.  I hope someone out there will need them :-)

Song Book for the Musical Play "Kentucky" c.1948 

Now, this is a rare find...probably one of a kind.  It is a Chorus song and costume direction book for the singers of this play based on the crazy antics of a town of Hillbillies!  Its pretty darn funny to read the music and costume descriptions!  Just look at that cover, those Hillbillies are going hog wild!

Now that I have my plane tickets, I can't wait to visit my own Hillbilly family! 
Merry Christmas Everyone :-)

  1. Cool stuff! It seems like we're all trying to sell things, though, which is why sales aren't what they should be. I finally sold something out of my Etsy store but it has been major slow going. Oh well, something's better than nothing, right? Merry Xmas to you, too!

  2. I'm so glad you were able to get your ticket! I'd love to see the windows you did. :) I didn't see that the super-cute candy dish sold...did you get to keep it, I hope? If I hadn't already spent some Christmas money on myself (for shame!), I woulda loved to snatch that up. Enjoy your time with famimly- have a Merry Christmas!
