Going Through People’s Stuff…

strange wire flowers

Check out these crafty flowers. I've never seen flowers made with

these wire things.

Occasionally I'm asked to come look at people's stuff either to sell it for them or tell them what to do with their stuff. I was called last week to do this very thing. I didn't know what to expect.. and unfortunatly I didn't take very many photos.

The Man went with me.. and he snapped a couple of photos in the kitchen….

Here it is from another view.. I bet they had over

  • 500 salt and pepper shakers..
  • 200 cookie jars
  • 300 pinbacks or buttons
  • 500 magnets
  • 3 rooms she hadn't even gone through yet.

I wish I would have taken photos of all of the rooms…

What should I Sell on eBay? Cookie Jar Edition

I’ve always liked cookie jars, and not just for the obvious reasons.. that they hold cookies.  When I first started selling on eBay I bought a black cat cookie jar for $8.00 at an auction.  I was so excited when it sold 158.00!

Cookie jars can be tricky to pack, but easy to sell if you do your research.  Here are a few cookie jars that sell great on eBay.

The pattern and shape make this cookie jar rare.


This cookie jar is new, but they had to stop production of it..

which made it pretty rare.

This Casper the ghost cookie jar came with the original box.  I thought

that would add more value to it.. turns out it only sold for 20.00 more

than one without a box.

There are a few car cookie jars on eBay.. but this Tucker sold

for the most money.

How cute is a Hippo cookie jar?

This is a newer cookie jar.
