Item #82
I was kind of sad to get rid of these curtains. I made them for the blue house and when we were so kindly evicted, we took them with us. But I'm sure I'll never have windows like that again...so I finally sent them off to the thrift store.
Item #80
We were given this as a gift when we were renting...you have to drill a HUGE hole in the ceiling to hang it and you have to find a beam. Yeah, our landlord would have loved that. Plus, wine isn't supposed to be exposed to light. And now that we're not renting, we don't want to make a huge hole the ceiling that we'll have to patch when it comes time to sell...yeah...

This old-school sewing machine lives with my friend Heather now…she’s still trying to figure out how to work it, but I found it a nice home. This was my grandmother-in-law’s machine. I would have kept it but I already had my mother-in-law’s Husqvarna and I figured I didn’t need two sewing machines.

Item #50
These curtains were our closet door at the blue house.
Item #43
J received this book one Christmas when it seemed that everything she got made too much noise. This book DROVE ME NUTS...the batteries started failing and J was happy to give it away.
Item #39
I loved my wallet, but the seams had all burst and stuff didn't say inside it, so it was time to get a new wallet and bid this one farewell :(
Item #38
J got this awesome tricycle from her grandparents...it was second hand and it was great, but the wheels were balding and it was hard to ride on the sidewalks around our house. When J got a balance bike for her birthday, we gave the tricycle to her old daycare. We'd been taking it there almost everyday anyway and it worked way better on their paths than on the sidewalk. It's nice to know it's still being used and that when we were done with it we could give it to someone who would be able to use it.
