Purge Question !!!

casuallady — Mon, 04 Aug 2014 22:04:16 GMT

I am cleaning out a large storage space off our Master Bedroom. Way to many old sheets, pillow cases, afghan's, throws. I really don't like afghans anymore, however some hubby's Mom made and we will keep them. I keep very few sentimental items, but my Mom made a candlewick quilt, and another quilt. I will definitely keep them. I am taking old sheets and pillow cases and some blankets to charity.

Hubby is going to help with his half.

Do people buy picture frames at flea markets?

I'll buy frames anywhere I can find them for a good deal! They are so expensive otherwise. Many can be painted in colors or metallics and look like new! We often give old but cleaned towels, sheets, blankets etc to our veterinarian.

Yes, people definitely buy frames at a garage sale or flea market!

Yes, people will buy your frames.

Don't forget your animal shelter when you give away the blankets and sheets. Our shelter likes items like these and old towels.

Thrift stores will always take them as well. People come up with the best ideas to repurpose all the ""junk"" we can't wait to get rid of!

Vet's offices and shelters would love the bedding!

Yes, people buy frames at garage sales and flea markets.

Also, got rid of a ton of old sheets and stuff that didn't fit out bed anymore a few months ago. My linen closet breathed a heavy sigh of relief. I donated all of them. Only 1-2 sets were really worn. The rest of the sheets were fairly new, just didn't fit what we upgraded to.

I bought a frame at a gift shop a couple years ago, it was $17.00 for a 4x6. Ever since then I buy at thrift stores. There is huge demand for cheap frames.
