Auction Fever

2/23/2013

In order to fill an entire store with things I've altered or found interesting, I have been hitting a LOT of auctions.  I'm still learning a few things about leaving an auction feeling successful but the hardest lesson is not to get caught up in the fever and start bidding just to compete!  In the past few weeks I know I've failed at that on more than one occasion! lol   It's just so harrrddd! When I want something so bad and it's right there but these other idiots...errr people want it too! How dare they!  And then I become determined to "win".  Not a good idea ! haha   Oops!  I'm learning the hard way and lets just say that I can't wait for warmer weather to return so I can go back to my favorite junking place... the flea markets!  There it's just all about the hunt and my competitive side stays put.

    Who Am I?

      I've tried it all...hair stylist/faux painter/stay at home mom/jewelry artist/late in life college student/retail shop owner/design consultant/home stager.  Through it all my favorite things to do have been sharing DIY ideas, thrifting, and making something out of nothing.
       Combine some of those and you get the perfect storm; Owning, renovating, styling and hosting in an airbnb!  Chris and I put our own touches to the structure, then I thrift and build most of what I need to create a unique and special environment for guests to enjoy.  Being an Airbnb host is so fulfilling for me!   Connecting guests with the communities and all they have to offer  as well as creating great memories is just the best!
