Thanks!! It was a great sale! See you in the spring!

 
The weather was fabulous all week! How lucky can you get? We had another wonderful sale, furniture and smalls going out the door right up to the last hour on Saturday!
 
It was a very busy week, with many changes in the decor of the barn as we constantly filled in the empty spaces. It was great to see many familiar faces and many new that were so excited on their first trip to the Red Barn Sale!
 
Have a great winter! We will see you at the Spring Sale, sometime at the end or May or beginning of June 2013.  If you want to be notified of the sale when the time is near, email to theredbarn@shaw.ca for your name to be added to our email list.
Next spring, we'll  try and do better with posting pictures of the new additions to the barn, this year we kind of fell behind in doing so.
 
 Happy Trails to You.........See you in the Spring!!

The Weather Was Perfect At The Barn Today!

This morning, before opening....blue, blue sky, the slightest breeze, bright sunshine! We sure picked a good week for our sale!
A couple of early customers stop along the way to say hello to a couple of beautiful horses!
 We had a nice steady stream of visitors on this beautiful day. They didn't bother Breezy, the little white mare, at all.

 As per usual, we've added more stock, big and small. Have a look at the slide show, you may find your special "must have" that wasn't even in the barn until today!


You should really come out again before the sale ends. Last day is Saturday, September 29th, then you'll have to wait until the spring to visit the Red Barn once more!!

Beautiful weather for our opening at 3:00 p.m.
Sales were brisk!
 
But don't worry!!
We have more!! We were filling up the empty spots and emptying more boxes of smalls as we winded up the day!
 
The slide show below shows opening day pictures. As we add every day, it's hard to keep up with what's coming and going, so just come out for a drive! The weather is going to be great all week!!
 

 

The turtle was not for sale! Found hiding in the Red Shed!!

 
 
The horse is not for sale either, but makes a pretty picture!!
See you at the sale!!

See you on Monday!

It's coming together! There's still work to do, but it's looking good! Such a variety! We always seem to find some really unique items inbetween the two sales!  A few more pictures for you, but you aren't seeing it all, we're not quite done yet, and of course, we want you to come out and see for yourself the great assortment of antique, vintage and collectible items.
 
 
 
 
I spooked the ducks in the pond, but snuck up and caught a shot of this guy!! A woodchuck!
 
SEE YOU ON MONDAY, DOORS OPEN AT 3:00 P.M.

At the Barn today

On the way over to the barn, I had to take another look at these goodies at the Red Shed
 
 I am in LOVE with this old street sign!!! But I promise it will still be there on Monday!
A bushel and a peck? Great for gathering those leaves!
 
Meanwhile back at the barn...
Boxes and more boxes!

 
 Here we go again, move, place, rearrange,move it somewhere else, keep at it until it has just the look we are striving for!
 

 
A few pictures to look at, we have lots of work to do yet, more pictures to come on the weekend....and you're still not going to see it all!!

Lift, move, place....

That's what we do best!! Moving furniture in and around at the barn today.  Setting up is a big job!! Some of the furniture is in, more to come, and we have started on some of the smalls. Here is a little peek into the very beginning of the sale.
More furniture ready to come in, and more stashed away to replace what will be sold.


 
Meanwhile, across the yard at the Red Shed, John has been busy setting up there.
 
Lots more to come!
here's a peek inside of the Red Shed
 
 
More pictures coming as we progress.

Something looks different!

Wow!!
Can you tell from here?
Have a closer look!

 
A brand new roof and a new paint job! Much as we love the rustic look of a weathered old barn, there comes a time....
The work has meant a minor delay in getting the barn ready for our fall sale, but we're finally starting and we'll be loaded and ready for the fun to begin on Monday, September 24th, at 3:00 p.m.
 
A few pictures tomorrow, with more to be added before the sale.
