Local blogger now offering estate and tag sale services in the New York City area

One of my favorite blogs is Reclaimed Home, which is about "low impact housing and renovation options for thrifty New Yorkers." The author, who includes witty pieces about her personal life, always seems to be up to a LOT: renovating her own homes (yes, plural) in Bed Stuy and Beacon, selling at the Brooklyn Flea, scouting out cheapo property in the region (I like this post on aesthetically pleasing mobile homes) . . . and now moving into the tag and estate sale business. This weekend she's putting on her second effort this Saturday, March 14, up in Beacon. The sale is a mix of antiques and vintage items left over from other sales, clean-outs, and shop inventory reductions, plus some consignments from local dealers. Get a preview of the weekend's goodies on Reclaimed Homes' Flickr page, and then check it out. The address is 69 Verplanck Avenue, Beacon, New York, and the sale runs 8:30am-4:30pm.I know no one wants to say the "S" word anymore, but this isn't shopping, it's recycling!

Thanks for spreading the word!

You left out one thing....I'm restoring a home in Beacon as well as the one in Brooklyn. And NOTHING is getting done on either one!

Okay, it's corrected. Even if nothing's getting done, just the thought of your "to-do" list exhausts me. : ) --kristi

The thought of it exhausts me too. Which is why I'm not doing it!
