November 6, 2009 - 5:00pm

So I start to unpack my auction wins with anticipation of what I should do. I will carefully unwrap the items and place them on a shelf.

The Loft Antiques: Thanks for the MemoriesNovember 3, 2009 - 4:10pmI've always said I wasn't very sentimental.....and for the most part, that's probably true. However, the older I get and the more friends and families I see losing loved ones, the more I find myself thinking twice about what I have that someone else "may" want, rather than me selling it.
