JENNY LIND DAYBED...A TREASURE FOUND

 Our Hob Nobber sales will be held once this year instead of three times. The date will be Labor Day weekend but we'll give you the exact dates as the time gets closer. The reason for this change in part is that it's a LOT OF WORK ( especially the hauling of furniture ) but also because I'm busy with my NEW VENTURE....Renew. Check out the blog here or the web site here. We're offering a NOW FREE workshop entitled, HAPPY RENEW YEAR. Go to our blog and check out the flyer on an earlier post for more information. Though the flyer says it costs $15, we've decided to offer it FREE as it's our first RENEW WORKSHOP and we want to offer it as a gift. So check it out as we'd love to see you there. The workshop will show you  how to live your BEST LIFE in 2012! So sign up now!

Now back to Hob Nobbers...One of my latest purchases is something I absolutely LOVE! This might be a keeper! It's an antique Jenny Lind Daybed! Here is a photo of it without all the pillows:

Here's photo of it with pillows that were included.

 

 

I can't decide if I like it WITH the pillows or WITHOUT. Here's another photo where you can see a bit more detail:

Since we will be offering only one sale this year, I will be selling some larger items on Craigslist. If I decide to sell this daybed, for example, before our next event it will be going on Craigslist. I'm still trying to find a place for it! So keep reading to see what will be offered! I'm keeping the daybed for now but the nice thing about these sales is that I can buy beautiful things and if I see something I like better, I just sell something and buy the next thing!

I've also been finding many vintage linens and fun shabby chic items. Our event over Labor Day will also include a Christmas room with lots of vintage Christmas decor! You will LOVE what we have!

It would also help us to have some feedback on things YOU might be looking for so we can keep our eyes open for the treasures that YOU want. So write a comment about what you'd like. We can't make any promises but we'll do our best! Also if you would REALLY like us to have three sales per year, I would like to know that also!  You MIGHT be able to change my mind. : ) So give us your feedback! Please leave your comments on the blog here. Also sign in as a follower and subscribe. That way you will receive notices when a new post is up so you don't miss any items that will go on Craigslist.

We have had many offers of items people would like to sell to us to resell at our events. While we appreciate you offering, we usually have to decline. The reason is that we find items at their lowest prices in order to pass our great prices on to you. We do not want to offend you in asking you to sell your treasure for a very low price so for that reason we have to decline. We spend a lot of time hunting for DEALS so we can give you our best prices.

So send us your comments! I'll keep you informed of our upcoming sale and will have some items listed here. So keep reading the blog and sign up so you don't miss anything!

Have a great weekend!

MY NEW BUSINESS...

A while back I mentioned that I was working on a NEW BUSINESS. So here's the information on it that I promised...  The new business is called...

                                                                 

We sell natural Spa products for the body and home as well as products  for the mind and spirit that help you live with less stress and more joy in your life. I am really excited about this new venture that I began with another friend and our son and daughter-in-law.

We sell our products through in-home Spa Parties and we're looking for consultants to help us because another one of our passions is to help women earn an income from the home! We provide our consultants with FREE LIFE COACHING along with business coaching, the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of others, as well as earning an income.

Right now we're only offering this opportunity to those living in the SE Minnesota area ( sorry, folks ).

We know how stressful  and busy life can be and we wanted to help women live with LESS STRESS and MORE JOY in their lives! So we developed this business to address those issues. And we do it through having Spa parties that will relax, inspire, and RENEW you in body, mind, and spirit. Then you can purchase products in order to have the same experience at home.

For more information, go to our website here. Or go to our blog here for articles that will inspire and help you in finding MORE JOY AND LESS STRESS for your life. We'll also help with goal setting and reaching your goals!
We're just beginning so you can go back and read through  ALL our past blog posts in a short amount of time and gain a lot of helpful information. Then sign up to be notified every time we write a new post for MORE INSPIRATION AND HELPFUL INFORMATION! We'll also be adding FREE e-books in the future, FREE telephone conference minnie workshops, and MORE!

OK,  I know this is totally different than our occasional  Hob Nobber vintage sales. So how does it all fit in? Well, one of our workshops will be about how to make money doing what you love. That is what I found out is possible through my love of hunting vintage treasures and then decorating with them and finally making money while having fun at the same time! I have MANY passions and I have  "designed my life" keeping in mind my values of family and faith, while staying refreshed and renewed  all while maintaining balance and finding joy in life... AND making some money in the process! And now I'm excited to share  with YOU, how you can do the same thing!

So stay in touch with my Renew blog as well as my Hob Nobber blog. I have a few larger Hob Nobber items I'll be selling on Craigslist for those living nearby. I'll be posting about them in future posts so check back to see what will be offered.
