i think i have finally recovered from the barn sale over the weekend.
it is
a lot of work getting ready for it, but it is always
worth it.
this is what my booth looked like.
you can't miss it, it's pretty colorful....i just need to figure out how to get my tent canvas turquoise or red or something fun like that. can you spray paint those things?? hmm, maybe i could dye it. :)
the countdown chalkboards were pretty popular.
i love the "my friends" saying...it is so true!
i had such a good time meeting new people, seeing familiar faces, and friends i haven't seen in years!
initial estimates are that there were between 1100 and 1200 people that came out for the sale!
it was definitely a busy day!
...and once again, i couldn't have done it without my awesome neighbor
amy j. she has helped me from the beginning and i really appreciate her help!!! THANKS AMY!!
i was very pleased with the turnout and how much i sold...which made getting up at 5 am totally worth it.
i was surprised at how many people came from far away!
everyone i talked to loved it, they said it just felt so warm and homey, and they thought it was neat how it was just smack dab in the middle of the country.
country folk are just so dang friendly!
everywhere you looked, there were moms,dads, kids, grandparents, and even a couple sweet hounds.
everyone was smiling and just out enjoying the beautiful weather that God provided.
2 men and a baby. :)
those mennonite girls baked up some wonderful, yummy food.
