41. Have a garage sale. Check. Just closed shop on the first day of our 3-day garage sale. Almost nonstop traffic between 6:45am - 3:45pm. Sold A LOT. And of course hardly any of the junk that was outside that had to be moved back in. We got lucky, too. They had been forecasting storms for today during the week. We were blessed with beautiful sunny, 80-degree weather. Hopefully that'll continue.
I promised pictures of the chair I bought at a garage sale. I finally reupholstered it. It looks great. The fabric that was on the seat was this hideous mauve quilted fabric. Totally didn't go with the deco-ish style. While taking that crappy excuse for fabric off the seat I noticed the original fabric was still attached. And the colors and texture were an EXACT match to the fabric I picked out!!!! The pattern was different, but man, the resemblance was eery. I must have accurate taste. Below are pictures of 1) the chair and 2) an attempted close-up of the fabric.
