MY EGA chapter has an annual "garage sale" - raises money for the chapter and lets everyone get "cheap" new projects.<br />I store my stretcher bars in an old wine bag (which I put in a box) - each opening has a couple of sizes in them. Makes it fairly easy to find the right size assuming they aren't on a "current" project.<br />Hope the rest of packing goes well.<br />Jackiejhmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04303312317141412783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-16900746471656696092017-05-29T13:11:55.521-04:002017-05-29T13:11:55.521-04:00Oh my I could never, ever leave two closets full o...Oh my I could never, ever leave two closets full of stuff without finding out what was in there!dianneohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04405084934874581997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-18374066582371511012017-05-28T12:05:44.152-04:002017-05-28T12:05:44.152-04:00You are doing a wonderful job!!

By the way, be sure they shrink wrap all the plastic drawer thingies. Movers are not as careful as you'd like and those drawers will come open! I speak from recent experience! I even bought cheap plastic wrap and did my own shrink wrapping of smaller items that went in boxes. <br />LIZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16049381517212388842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-3909858996074722462017-05-28T11:13:07.756-04:002017-05-28T11:13:07.756-04:00Wondering if selling your misfits could help pay f...Wondering if selling your misfits could help pay for the move? Quickly making "mystery boxes" that would be uniformly priced at $10, $20, etc. and use flat rate boxes would cut down on time involved. Maybe after the move would be better timewise?Ms Peppercornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12734921664386422403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-35998739341784251042017-05-28T10:02:42.121-04:002017-05-28T10:02:42.121-04:00Wow, Coni, you are really moving along, haha.
