KW... How about posting some prices? I'd be interested in the rolltop, depending on age/era and the patio furniture, depending on type. So, I'd need to bring enough cash. You can e me at rhodenccc at yahoo.com.
Thanks, Cheryl

Here are a few more details on some of the items for sale - I can't remember all the prices, everything is at the house and I'm here in Wrightwood. If you want specific pricing on something, send me a message and I'll check when I go down to the house on Tuesday.

This list is only the beginning - every room in the house, plus the garage, has tables full of stuff.

- Vintage (anywhere from early 1900's to 1960's):
Items include linens and hand made crocheted items, jewelry, records, ornaments, lamps, souvenirs, dolls, wash tub, child's rocking chair, child's doll crib, toys, silver set, knife set, salt and pepper shakers, figurines (No Hummels), war ration book, glassware and dishes, bread maker, newspaper from when Kennedy was assassinated, pink depression glass, Disneyland coupons, Royal typewriter, old red wagon, snow sled, tea cups and saucers, etc, etc.

Furniture Info:
 - Couch is a smaller one in a blue print, good for a cabin or spare room. There is a matching rocking chair, will sell together or separate.
 - Book case, dressers (3), hutches (2), bedroom set (full), are all in maple, nice hard solid wood in great condition - not the boxed furniture you buy and put together from WalMart.
 - Roll top desk is small, not the kind you sit at and not an antique - but great storage for a small space.
 - TV Cabinet - oak, with lots of drawers and storage
 - Filing Cabinets - two metal, one is nice and one is clunky. Also one unique wood one on a metal stand.
 - Computer desk is only a couple years old and rarely used, very nice with storage and a hutch.
 - Occasional tables - at least 6 of these in a variety of styles.
 - Day bed with trundle and pink floral bedding
 - Singer sewing machine in cabinet with chair
 - Vintage Secretary tall desk, dovetailed drawers, etc
 - Maybe more stuff, doing this from memory

Housewares:
 - Includes microwave, pots and pans, toasters (3), coffee makers/pots, food processor, mixer, pie plates, dishes, glassware, plates, tablecloths, ice cream makers (2), indoor grill, tall freezer, tupperware, utensils, salad spinner, Princess House glasses, dessert sets, punch bowl, sprout dryer, humidifier, sheet sets (full and queen), laundry hamper, lots of wall hangings, and the list goes on.

Garage and Outdoor:
Most of the garage tools and such were sold 2 years ago. What's left includes storage shelves, work chairs, Craftsman 10" table saw, a few hand tools, Sears Shredder/Chipper, white iron oval patio table with 4 chairs, 2 white high back plastic chairs, 2 low back plastic chairs, black wrought iron patio side tables, wonderful weather vane for your roof or outdoor post, staple gun, nail gun, stud finder, etc, etc.

Art Supplies and Crafts:
 - Drafting table, several easels, light table, large white wood flat file cabinet, watercolor paper and boards, mats and backing, canvas, frames, framing supplies, cut howlite stone, ceramics to pain on, goose eggs to paint on, egg blower, embroidery thread, sewing kits, etc, etc.

Art Work for Sale:
Original art by Maxine Taylor, as well as prints. Some framed, some just on canvas, some started but never completed. Most of her art is of birds, quail, nature, flowers, hummingbirds, as well as local scenes like Vincent's Cabin.

Other Stuff:
 - Office supplies, paper cutter, Guitar Hero guitar with CD, Rock Band drum set - no CD, bird feeders, lamps, canvas firewood bag, collectible plates, lots of bird and quail figurines and decorations, old Coke bottles, mason canning jars, etc, etc....

Oh my goodness...Just a lifetime of wonderful memories. I hope your sale is a big success!! A collection like this should be advertised in multiple papers. But, you do get the 'early birds' if you do that. Best of luck and good fortune with your sale. cheryl o7o

Are there lots of canning jars, or just a handful?

There are three boxes of canning jars, some have lids, some have rings, some are just the jars. When you come, they are in the garage section of the sale under a table of sale items.

UPDATE:

A family member has taken the white patio table and chairs, the weather vane, and I'm afraid I lied - there is no nail gun. Sorry!

Other than that, we're still on for Friday and Saturday, rain or shine! All items for sale are inside in the house and garage.

Our sale was a great success! I just wanted to thank everyone who loaned us tables, and all the others that stopped by and shopped. I got to meet so many people from Wrightwood - that was cool. I had offers of help from folks I had never met before, so thanks to everyone! Gotta love this forum and this town....
