We know that I love the chase of the find, there is no denying that. But for whatever reason most of us have very different reasons for going and buying at estate sales, whether it be www.nymes.net or a more traditional route.
   One of my very favorite things is when a buyer comes back with the before and after pictures. This one today is so inspiring I had to post it! On November 1, 2013 we did a Barn Sale and #1058 purchased this chair
It was nice but no one was interested in it, so # 1058 bought it for $4.00. Twenty four hours later this is the picture I was sent. A fresh coat of paint and new seat cover and this chair was ready to start a new and purposeful life.

To Celebrate this new beginning, we at NYMES have started a once a month contest for our "Do It Yourself Folks", Send us a pictures of your before and after and you may win a lot of attention and twenty dollar credit towards your next sale purchase.

Have a picture send it to info@notyourmothersestatesale.com and we will post it on our facebook page for feedback. Contest will run from the first of the month through the end of each month. Just list the sale you made your purchase at, how much you paid for the item, and a little information such as did you keep it, give it away or sell it. If an interesting technique was used pass that on to, so we can share!

Again Congratulations # 1058!!

Thanks for seeing the wonderful bones of the chair.
