Currently wading through old sheet music, which I'm adding to the "Music Related" category (which is under the Miscellaneous menu). Also a Fred Astaire ballroom dancing guide, and other bits and pieces. Also wondering if I should introduce an "Imperfect" category for all those items too good to bin, but not generally instantly saleable. Maybe put this under the Miscellaneous menu as the website format doesn't allow for me to have any more than 6 major categories along the top of the home page. Lots of jewellery coming up too, and some beautiful silverware.

Because of the need to clear space and my reluctance to throw anything away, I'm adding some items that have faults. They will all be very cheap! It just seems such a pity to bin them, when they still look attractive - and you can always turn the little chip on the side to the back when displaying them.

Currently, I'm still trying to clear the contents of our old stockroom - a very large room, in which many things had lain hidden for 20 years or more. A lot of the items were put aside because they were not perfect, or were part of left-over items from clearances, or part lots from auctions, or had gone into the "gonna clean" basket. Once I wouldn't have loaded them up to the website, as they didn't fit through age or style. Now I'm ruthless - if it's here, up it goes. So... if you see some strange items, things not...

Having been thoroughly lazy, I'm still sorting out cartons of stock, and bits and pieces of miscellanea. I had a lot of new jewellery made in silver with semi-precious stones which we used to sell in the summer season. Now I am uploading these at clearance prices. You'll find them in the sub-category of Jewellery: New Jewellery.

As I am clearing out our storage areas after our move, I have come across items I wouldn't normally list, but feel they deserve a chance. Mainly costume jewellery, some slightly damaged items, some contemporary items that are not antique or vintage, but good pre-owned or old new stock. Quite a few are sterling silver rings mounted with cubic zirconias, or crystals. All are going cheap in the Great Clean-out!
