Two of them are halloween costumes Wizard of Oz and some kind of ninja that has a nice cloak in it. front porch pick up

fabric fat quarters 38d - I have six cotton fat quarters for quilt piecing and crafts. There are two different ones. One has music symbols and the other is cute doggy paws. I have no use for them. front porch pick up

nice childrens fabric 38d - I have two lengths of what is called "baby wale" corduroy from back when fabric was still nice. Each is about a yard of 45" wide and is cotton. One is a cream background with pretty little pink flowers The other is a pretty red background with multi colored little hearts on it. If you sew, these will make the most adorable little baby pants, overalls or little overall dress for a little girl! This is the finer and softer corduroy that is nice for childrens clothes. This is the old school nice, cotton corduroy! All of my girls are way past this now and I can't see myself holding on to it for any good reason. What a shame to let it just languish in the sewing room! Hoping some talented mom can use them to sew something sweet for her wee one! And, if you sew well enough to sew for gifts, this would make the most unique baby gift, to sew a little vintage corduroy outfit. I probably even have a pattern, or two, that might do well with it. front porch pick up

toddler stroller Expired 134d - I am the grandma who still has the stroller at my house and all the grands have out grown it. I would love to pass it on for another happy kid to use. It is an older one, but it is a very good one. It is a Jeep stroller and is built about as sturdy as a real Jeep! It strolls so nicely, is all terrain, has rubber air tires, lots of room for everybody's stuff and a comfortable shady place for little one to sleep. Just a wonderful one it is! We took it to pick apples in the orchard, to walk the tow path at the river and downtown to the museums, and anywhere else. It folds up, of course and you can set the front wheel to either go straight or to swivel and you put the brake on so that it does not roll down hill. The seat back reclines nicely for a nap. It is pretty much washable, like a Jeep. It even comes with a tire pump. We enjoyed it so much and this Jeep is still ready for a couple more kids. Your little one and you will really enjoy this stroller! You can carry all the other stuff that you need as well as the little one. It is for one who is starting to sit up, not for a small baby. But, once little one wants to sit up and watch here is the place to do that! I used to put water in the tray and let the babies splash. This is big enough for a 4 year old and we all know how much easier it is to have a four year old contained and. on wheels when you are trying to go somewhere. It also has nice zippered pouches and closed place for your phone and a drink. And it has a cargo area in the back

vintage 70s boys toys Expired 1y - I have a Masters of the Universe lap tray from 1982. It belonged to my now grown son. It is is pretty good shape with a bit of cleaning. I have his permission to pass it on. Also I have a genuine and original Transformers thermos jug. It was also my son's. If you have a guy in your life who remembers these with nostalgia and his mom threw his all out, give it to hi for Christmas. What a unique gift! He would never have been expecting...............this. The thermos is clean and is in pretty good shape. Certainly still usable. front porch pick up

A really cute and simple little dress. Make to match. Pattern for making a slipcover for a folding chair, McCalls. 4404 A pretty blouse, 14-20 Nice Burda mens pants pattern and a Project runway mens vest pattern. Lynn Mizono designer pattern from Vogue. Very nice and classy but simple 16-24 These are all nice patterns that I just dont need anymore. Fun stuff! Front porch pick up. As soon as possible would be appreciated, but it doesn't have to be today.

ceramic tiles Expired 1y - I have a small assortment of white ceramic tiles from a couple of projects. I have 12 4"x4" white tiles that I had used on a side kitchen cabinet top. They were only used for light duty and a bit of the mastic on the back is still there, but still they would be good for some kind of fun summer project . And there are 3 tiles that are 6x6 . They are white and never used. Then there are a couple of other little shaped tiles. All together it would make a great craft project, make stepping stones, or cover a small tabletop. I had been using the white ones along with some "broken pottery" mosaic. It is not hard to do and can be a fun project. These tiles are still good for something like this. front porch pick up

CDs Expired 1y - I have a stack of music CDs out of the cases They range from rockabilly, to New Orleans music, some country, singer songwriter Janis Joplin Gypsy Kings Maria Muldar Muddy Water Susy Boggus Dar Williams Rory Block Dolly Partomn Otis Redding I used to work in a venue where we got a lot of free CDs all the time! front porch pick up

knitting stuff Expired 1y - Let the kids learn to knit this summer. I have a tote bag of straight knitting needles and some assorted yarn. front porch pick up

Jeep stroller Expired 1y - I have still here a nice older model Jeep Urban Terraine Limited stroller. I got this from another grandma and we used it for our grandson, then the other who came to visit. This is the greatest thing, ever! I am convinced of it! We put lots of miles on it along the parks and playgrounds and this thing has lots of miles still left to give. It holds the small child, everyone's water bottle, snacks and packs and folds up easily. There is nice little tray that goes on or take off. It has real air tires and the front wheel will lock in a straight point like a jogging stroller, or it will unlock and make it move real nicely. It reclines nicely and little one has nice umbrella over their head. Such a great piece of stuff it is. But mine have all grown out of it. It would be great for anyone needing a stroller, good to keep at grandmas, or good to have this summer when family with little ones come to visit and everyone has to go and see the dinosaurs at the Smith downtown. It has been to the Natural History Museum a couple of times. Really so many good memories in this and it is still good to go! It is very easy to clean, just like a Jeep. It is black and blue. Hose it down. Greatest thing we ever had for doing things with the grandson! front porch pick up

propane torch Expired 1y - I have two solid old school propane torches. They look the Benzomatic ones that you can still buy. These had been in my dads tools and he was a welder, and a builder. Such solid old tools!!! I have no use for them. front porch pick up

Outer dimensions are 33x327 , inside is 24x30. I had been enjoying a nice framed poster of a piece by Diego Rivera and it is still here along with it mat that I had cut for it. I have enjoyed having this over the years and it has held a number of different pieces, but time to let it go. It is a stained oak, not a light oak. Old school stuff. front porch pick up

vintage tinker toy Expired 1y - I have a can of Tinkertoys that belonged to my own kids, late 70s. It is still in pretty good condition. For all you toy people out there, this is the real deal.

music cds Expired 1y - I have probably about 30 of them and they range from singer songwriter, Dolly Parton, Suzy Boggus, many female vocals. I have no use for them anymore. They are not in the cases anymore. But all seem to be just fine. I used to work for a company that got free promotional music and I brought home all manner of things. You may fall in love with some of these. There are lots of different things.

antique drawer hardware Expired 1y - I have three metal drawer pulls that came off of some antique furniture somewhere along the way. They are great old antique probably over 100 years old. They measure about 2 1/2" high and wide with nice engraved ring pulls on them. You mount them on your drawer fronts the same as you do the modern ones. The threaded stem on the backs of them look to be about 1/2" deep. They have a nice patina of time, but they are not corroded. Then, there are a couple of more mundane globe ceramic ones. I dont think they old, but still quite nice.

holiday ornaments Expired 1y - I have a Hallmark ornament from the movie (?) Civil War, Team Captain America, it says. He is still in the box. There is a Cabbage Patch kid, a Mr Potatohead and a little Tweety bird with baseball bats. I know the holidays are over,, but maybe next year........................

faux soft leather Expired 1y - I have a piece of faux leather that would be perfect for those who sew cosplay costumes . It is brown in color, 45" wide and looks to be somewhere about a yard. I had intended to sew my little grandson a little bomber jacket, but never got around to it. It is interesting stuff and it sews easy on the machine with a regular needle. I do believe that it is gentle machine wash, too. Might be good for those who do ren faire, too. front porch pick up

piping for home dec Expired 1y - I have some 1/4"piping that is left over from a home dec workroom. It is good stuff. It is white, in good and clean condition and I think that there is maybe at least a few yards of it. It has many craft and sewing possibilities. I just dont need it anymore.

books Expired 1y - I have three nice books for maybe about pre teen ages.

The first one is "Chomp", and takes place in the Everglades. The second one takes place in a swamp and it is entitled "Scat".

It is a hardback and all three books are in very good condition. Must be gone within a reasonable time or the will go to the library book sale. Front porch pick up
