Attention Decorators....a Few Items of Interest...LAST DAY
OK, as many of you know now, my family is moving to Seattle, so I have a lot of things to clear out of the shop. I have to condense, condense and condense some more if I expect to relocate without spending a fortune doing so, so I have quite a few items I'm trying to unload if anyone is interested. Right now I have a couple of items that I'm looking to sell off. I have a full 50 yd bolt of sapphire blue 52" gossamer that has never been used (bought it for an event as extra and never needed it) as well as two (2) RMS heart sets and an RMS-2 banner kit. I'm looking for offers on these three items, and best offer gets the goods. I'll be happy to sell them off individually or as a group, depending on the offer. Please note that the buyer will have to cover shipping as well if applicable. Email me at aeradeco@aol.com to make an offer. Last bids will be accepted on Friday, March 19. Thanks!
