Is it a cross section of a log, then sort of dug out...with a dark orange glass ashtray placed into the dug out?Mr. Modtomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16804031065414619749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-44058969536027478362010-12-14T01:51:25.288-06:002010-12-14T01:51:25.288-06:00Sue - I go when ever the urge strikes me.

I usually get to the stores around here about once a week but I keep forgetting that the SalvArmy store isn't open on Sunday so I might miss that one. The Sofa is super long and did stick out the back of Frank but otherwise fit no problem. I didn't even go straight home! I went to the Value Village up the street first and when I didn't find much there, I hit the other one before going home....with a big ol' couch hanging out the back.<br /><br /><br />Heidi - One of the employees helped me get it out of the store and then into the car. It's not too heavy. The Girlfriend helped me get it out of the car and into the house. I have used a delivery company before but only a few times. It's often easier to do it myself than to become a control freak when someone else is looking like they might scratch or damage something. Once, after a buyer bought and paid for a dresser, she had a guy with a truck come by and he really didn't seem to care if the dresser got damaged in moving. I went all control freak and was giving orders and telling everybody how to load and wrap and tie down, doing a lot of it myself. I almost said wait...I'll just deliver it myself!Mr. Modtomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16804031065414619749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-6410226666688996832010-12-13T21:04:24.221-06:002010-12-13T21:04:24.221-06:00I love Starglow, actually.

Would have snapped that up instantly if I saw it at one of my locals.<br />My only interesting decor find recently was a strange (and huge) ashtray made out of a log section.bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09822563017410447051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-22440264193509015382010-12-11T18:20:36.512-06:002010-12-11T18:20:36.512-06:00The "star glow" pattern always looked li...The "star glow" pattern always looked like snow to me.mooboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12754457491865032141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-51550191335375378832010-12-11T16:53:50.182-06:002010-12-11T16:53:50.182-06:00How do you get things moved?

I was just at the Goodwill and Value Village yesterday. Only walked away with a vintage glass to add to a set of 2 others I already have and a handmade vintage Christmas ceramic decoration, made by someone named Rosemary in 1986. Spent a whopping 1 dollar!<br /><br />Just curious, how often you do go in those stores? I used to go 1x a week, but haven't been able to go that often lately.<br /><br />Oh yeah, did that sofa fit in Frank?????<br /><br />SueAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
