Yard Sale….at Eddie Ross

Yes, it was Yard Sale Weekend chez Eddie and Jaithan! They live in upstate New York, in the Hudson Valley. And this was their much anticipated yard sale…I was there within an hour of its opening. Lots of goodies! Of all kinds. Silver, fabric, furniture, dinnerware, bone-handled knives, lampshades, books and the list goes on. True to form, they were gracious hosts! Not only was it a sale: it was an “event”, drawing people from near and far. What a perfect way to start the long weekend… and I went on to Millerton for lunch with a friend and discovered lots of great shops and restaurants.

I’m still kicking myself for not buying that great DIY table….but I did buy the sel et poivre grinders… here they are all cleaned up:
