A few months back, I must have told you about me going to management and asking them about continuing some of the community oriented traditions of our past property managers. In case you don't remember, I spoke to the current staff about my idea for a building yard sale.
Well, about a week ago the elevators had notices alerting residents of the opportunity to participate in a yard sale!! Yesterday, I joined others on the first floor atrium for our first sale! There was free food and ice cream and an opportunity to donate clothing and other items.
Initially, a neighbor and I were going to share a table and participate in the event, but we both discovered that we preferred to just donate the items we had.
I perused the tables of others and saw some pretty cool items. There were collectible cameras and shoes and baked goods. People were definitely in the thrifting spirit. I did find some great, antique looking lamps which I badly needed for my living room! It was a win-win for me.
More than anything, as I walked around, I really was excited by seeing how this whole thing came together from an idea and a conversation. Just. Like. That.
Just a cool reminder that, from nothing, you really can masterfully create and bring a vision to life.
