New Stuff for Sale

I have a full box of new, never used, (most in original unopened packaging) stuff for sale. It includes complete stamp sets, embellishments, and goodies. Some of it is duplicates, some were purchased as gifts and I forgot I had them stored, etc. Paid about $130 for the lot and will sell for $45 plus $12 shipping. Email me if interested. rubyslippers@neofast.net
Prefer PayPal, but if I know you I will work with you. No pictures, but I promise it is very good stuff.

Merry Christmas from Our House!

Note: I have had several e-mails. Yes, the walls are a very pale yellow, nearly cream colored. Yes, the tree is artificial. Yes, the floor is Pergo and we totally love it--so easy to keep clean. No, the sofa is not an antique but is a custom made set that is a replica of an antique set. We purchased it in Portland years ago with a matching love seat and 2 wing back chairs. The area rug is from an online store called A Touch of Class. I have purchased 4 area rugs from them and love them all. The merganzers on the beams are ones I made years ago when I was doing a lot of wood carving/painting. Click on the photo if you wish to enlarge it. Thanks for all the compliments. We built this house ourselves (and did much of our own designing) 28 years ago.
