A big THANKYOU  to all of our regular patrons and the new collectors that made their way to our Fall Sale.

We will be out there, gathering again for another fabulous sale in the spring, the end of May or beginning of June. Watch this site, and make sure you get on our email list for a notice of the sale by emailing theredbarn@shaw.ca and requesting to be added to our email list.

And so we begin the setup

The collage of pictures below is what we were looking at this morning! ...and that wasn't all of the boxes Click to enlarge


Yes, there's lots of work to do! Today we unloaded lots and lots of boxes and got a good start. Our previous slide show host is not available as I just found out when going to upload the pictures, so we are now hosted by Flickr.....we'll try them out.
Below is the slide show of a few areas where I could take pictures of "the beginning".
Don't forget there's the loft of the barn, the Red Shed, and the Garden Shed too! We'll be loading them all up. Lots of really great items.

FALL SALE DATES

Here we go, we've scheduled the Fall Sale. Our Monday late day opening was a huge success in the spring so we have decided to do it again!! We won't be open for the whole evening due to the short daylight hours in the fall, but we are again giving the working people a chance to shop early, although as you know we keep on restocking with lots of new furniture and smalls throughout the sale!

Monday September 26th from 3:00 p.m - 7:00 p.m.

We're still adding more!!

We are enjoying a fabulous turnout for this sale and have been very busy filling in the empty spots.
Some furniture items are being sold before we can get them into the barn and placed!
We are still bringing in boxes of smalls as well.... we still have a great array of items and you may find just what you are looking for that was not in the barn previously this week! 
I was not at the barn yesterday, and am not there today, so I missed taking pictures to post.
Inbetween moving furniture in and out, John found a moment to take a few, so I will post them and I'll take plenty of pictures tomorrow and get them up here before our last day which is Saturday!
.....sometimes the best things are coming in last, so make sure you get out to the sale.
Our next sale will be in the fall.

We've been busy adding MORE!!

We were busy beavers this morning before opening at 11:00. Empty spots from furniture sold last night were being filled up and boxes and boxes of smalls were added to the sale, filling in empty spaces in cupboards and on shelves.
While the sales were great last night, at our first time opening evening, we keep to our word and have lots more to add. We will be adding all week, so make sure you come back if you've been already, and if you haven't made it to the sale yet, you won't be disappointed, there's lots more to come in yet to the sale.
Here are some pictures taken today.

OUR OPENING EVENING! A HUGE SUCCESS!

Wow! Our 5:00 to 9:00 opening was a HUGE success! The weather co-operated and we were kept very busy! 
The pictures below were taken just before we opened. As you know, we are continually bringing in new stock from our various treasure troves, so don't worry, we still have plenty of  great items to put out each day! Right up to the end of the sale!
Enjoy the pictures!

Sunday - the day before the BIG day (the sale starts at 5:00 pm. so don't forget)

A lazy day for this resident turtle over at the Red Barn site, but inside the Red Barn there's lots
going on, no time for lazing!



 Lots to be hung on the walls.. (now where's that hammer?)
We will be ready !
and we have lots more boxes left and more furniture, etc for the rest of the week!


I will leave you with the peaceful picture above, taken today on the property, and an album I've uploaded with some pictures taken today.
There will be much more than what you see as Leslie keeps unpacking and stocking available space with really great items! ...did I not mention that we also have the best prices in town??

SALE STARTS MONDAY 5:00 P.M.!

It's almost here! We'll be opening the doors at 5:00 p.m. on Monday, June 6th!
You won't have to book off work to get to the opening of the sale!! The long spring daylight hours make this possible  so drop in on your way home from work! 

We are constantly restocking throughout the sale so don't worry if you don't get there for the opening evening!

We're still filling the barn, garden shed and the red shed, and have lots of work to do over the next couple of days. 
Pictures will be posted at some point over the weekend.
We know you're as anxious as this family of geese that wanted a sneak preview! They quickly scurried away from the barn entrance when they heard our voices from the inside!

If you're a first time visitor, (or not) scroll down for pictures from previous sales  for an idea of the fabulous selection that we offer each spring and fall.
