I am having a yard sale this weekend, and have made quirky sales tags to increase interest..here's one.."Antiques Roadshow said I ruined this! Don't use oven cleaner on fine antiques, folks.. cup, appraised before cleaning, $75.00..today .50" and, I have a golden blanket with the label, "made by Rumplestiltskin's employee".....another blanket says"may cause drowsiness"...I have a big coffee table with"If the house is burning, take this last, AFTER the piano-it's heavy"..I have vintage aprons with"worn by Elizabeth Taylor's housekeeper, perhaps". Does it seem loony to you? Have a great day!

Hi rushfanatic,

That sounds great! There's nothing like a little humour. I admire your quirkiness!

Good luck with the yard sale and stay quirky!

Uhmm, this just might backfire in case there are many aspies in the customer clientelle. If I was looking around that stuff and found a few of those stickers, the whole operation would for me turn in to a hunt for more "wise words" around and about, rather than finding something I might want to have... :D
