I have recently had the opportunity to clean a house in preparation for an estate sale. My friend Kathryn and I are working hard to magically transform a hoarder's mess into an organized and clean space. Who says you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear? It has been eye opening to see what someone saves. The lady of the house who used to reside here did lots of bottling fruit and vegetables. She was preparing ahead for her family. There was only one problem. They didn't eat what they stored so the food just went to waste. It's too bad. The same can be said for the "treasures" in every nook and cranny. The house is filled to the gills with things that couldn't possibly be enjoyed. The beautiful figures, glass, dishes and artwork were buried to the point of obscurity. We are bringing boxes of dishes home to wash because the water isn't on in the house. When we finish, everything in the house will be staged for a sale. There is lots to do before that can happen though. I have been enjoying taking photos of the glass as I clean it. I am loving the beautiful colors. I'm not sure when the sale will be yet but I will let you know by Instagram and Facebook. Here are some of my attempts at glass fashion photos.
Feeling a little blue
Green for a day
Crystal clear
and creative work/play.
