October 2020

It’s fall and so almost time for one of Loudoun County’s traditions:  the Purcellville Tag Sale!  This year the sale will be held on October 10th from 8 A.M. until 6 P.M., rain or shine.  Since the event draws thousands of people every year, recommend coming out early.  It would also be prudent to bring your bargaining skills, cash, a large vehicle, and your imagination!  You’ve seen some of the before and after photos posted in the newsletter and on our Facebook page.  Sometimes it takes a little imagination to see what an object can become.  For example, a chair seat can be made from contrasting (or coordinating!) colors to match a room or display school colors like the one shown below.

 

 

Alternatively, items can be restored to their original condition with new caning, paint, or upholstery.  Check out these before and after examples.

We look forward to helping you with your new “treasures!”  See you soon . . .
