Day 1, Mapping Out The Hunt

8/2/2015

Starting our road trip four days before the Worlds Longest Yard Sale technically starts means less traffic and first pick... YAY!
But it also means about 50% of the venues aren't set up just yet. Each day will get busier,  but today was not much about buying. We drove the sale through part of Ohio and most of Kentucky and hit a few of our favorite venues that we knew would already be setting up, but mostly we sweat! Clear skies and 94 degrees!

We weren't even 2 miles out of Ohio when we spotted a vintage car show. It was great timing to grab lunch and make hubby happy.  I spotted the perfect truck in the perfect color, if only I had LOTS of money!
We did manage to find some great stops today, and map out more for out trip back home later this week.

This is the type of thing you watch for while cruising route 127.  Lots of farmers rent out their fields for the larger venues.  You see a group of tents ahead and slam on the brakes! Each day this week the traffic will get heavier with shoppers, so long
before you see the field you see the line of cars pulled off the road,
and THATS when you hit the brakes!

Leaving earlier tomorrow to beat some of the heat and fill the trailer
a bit more.  Wish us luck!

Hello. I see all the great posts and finds...but how does one actually purchase items from you? I went to your opening in canal Fulton last month..and nothing that you have posted (or at least what I was interested in) was there. Can you point me in the right direction of where to come see your items and purchase? I think I am missing something. And I am rather new to all of this...so, please, any feedback is welcome. And I just love to read your posts.

Thank you for your time.

You are only able to purchase during our Show & Sell Openings. Items I post prior to an opening weekend are available that weekend, plus many more. Many things do sell quickly so getting there early is best if you are looking for a specific item that was posted to be available for that sale weekend.
Thanks for asking!

    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!
