Ebay

With baby on the way we've been trying to declutter since early summer. If you'll remember we had the 2 bunk yard sales which ultimately resulted in a large drop off at a local thrift store. I kept a few items out of the thrift store pile to try to sell on Ebay: a Vera Bradley purse that is now retired but in good condition, my beading collection from my days of making my own jewelry and some white wedding envelopes with a pearlescent lining.

I have one bid on my purse so far and 2 more days of auction. The beads are sold I'm just waiting for the buyer to come and pick them up. The envelopes are still just hanging out there which makes me sad. When I got married I some how screwed up and didn't order enough invitations. So I had to make 5 or so that looked SOMEWHAT similar and send them to people I knew wouldn't notice or care (distant family and a drunk bachelor friend). When I did this I had to follow through with the whole two-envelope tradition and it made buying the envelopes the most difficult part. Anyway -- I was hoping I could help out any brides out there that had a similar situation. If not, maybe someone who is in to card making? Worst case I throw them away and move on with my life. THey really are pretty but since they're square and require extra postage I can't really use them for sending notes and cards.
