Happy Thursday!  We got in some great new arrivals this week!  But before we get to that, I have to tell you about our crazy day on Monday.

After Fit Buddha, Sandy, Marc and I headed over to Lure for lunch and Martini Monday.  As we were sitting there, the most dapper man walked in wearing a three piece suit.

I said, “Aren’t you snappily dressed?” and we began chatting.  Sandy was in the restroom and when she came back she said “Who is this?” and Marc said “Lynn’s next ex-husband.”  Hahaha.

He worked as a Butler for a very famous film producer in Beverly Hills (I won’t drop any names) but his stories were a hoot!  I actually called him a Cad.  I guess I was channeling my grandmother on Monday with all those old school terms.  LOL.

We ended up having a blast and at one point the restaurant manager came over and asked us to quite down.  Always a fun time to be had!

Before I get to the rest of my fun week, I am excited to announce that Lynn’s is offering  a design service to give any room in your home a new look!.  After all, our logo is Decorate with Heart.   This is a test program and we will see how it goes.

Do you have a space in your home that needs a refresh or a bit of rearranging?  Some ideas….

Under the stairs
A focal wall (amazing how one wall redo can change a room)
The wall behind your bed…we even have heaboards
Unused space
A corner
A Kitchen nook
A small office area

Susan Wheelan and I will come out for a 30 minute consult for a flat $50 fee within Ventura.  We will design a plan and will return and stage your project with items from your home, the store and others we source.  You get to live with the design for 24 hours and may purchase what works for you at the item price plus a 20% service fee.  You are under no obligation to purchase anything.

In addition to utilizing some of your existing decor, imagine how amazing some new throw pillows, throw blankets, art, decor, rugs and lamps can do to refresh a tired area of your home.

This is a service designed to be fun for all with the end result being a refreshed and beautiful space!  Let me know if you are interested in being be our “guinea pig”.  Please email, call or come in the store to schedule your consultation!  Remember this is a trial and we are only taking one client!

Then on Tuesday, I had Kevin (who has been helping around the store) and Sandy come over to my house to help move my office.

I have a separate office behind my house and it is darling, but I never go in there because there is no entrance directly from the main house.

I asked Indy if I could use 1/2 her bedroom for my office and she agreed.  We got most of my stuff moved in and her room re-arranged and I actually think it looks way better!  I am thrilled with the way it turned out and even stayed working until 9 pm last night.  Which I would never do in the outer office.

I think it is a win win for everyone.  Check it out.

The only down side to Tuesday’s hard work was that I dropped an antique barbell from my grandmother’s antique store on my glass floor mat and it broke into a 1,000 pieces.  Oh well!

In super sad news, I am sorry to share that Val’s husband, Ron, passed away last month.  We lost a good one…..  We are all heartbroken for Val and her family.  Here is a link to his obituary.

The service will be next Wednesday, April 17th at 10 am at the Camarillo St. Mary’s Catholic Church.  We hope to see some of you there to support Val & her family.

Sorry to have to share that sad news.  Many of you were there during his cancer battle and for that we are so grateful.

Back to store news, The eBay in person course for this Sunday has been rescheduled to Sunday, April 28th from 2 to 6 pm.

This is a short 4 hour class and you will leave with an item or 2  listed on eBay.  You will also learn some of the most important things to know and do when selling on eBay.

I will be sending some lessons to you by email in the days leading up to the course so that we are all on the same page.

To be eligible to take this class, you must be computer savvy and own a laptop which you will bring to the class.  You will also bring several items to list!

Space is limited and the price is $297 and you will receive a goodie bag.  Fun Fun!

It will be a blast and I am so excited to get back into teaching others how to make extra money from home. Please email me with any questions. Space is limited so here is a link to sign up.

It will be modeled after my 6 week on-line Six Step Course, but since it is in person you will still get the same benefits. And yes, that is a really OLD photo of me!

Here is a testimonial from Val that she posted on Insta…..”Thanks for the great class, Lynn!!  I came in feeling totally intimidated about eBay and left with a feeling of accomplishment and a path forward.  Love the swag bag with all those great tools for success”

And then one from Nicole, “Good Morning Lynn!  I had such a great time at the class yesterday!!  Thank you so much for helping us get started with eBay!  You are a wealth of knowledge!!”  And Nicole has already sold 4 items!

I hope you all had an amazing Easter. Mine turned out a bit different than expected, but it was still super fun.

I did not get to see my kids, so instead I shipped them their Easter Baskets/Gift Bags yesterday.

Even though I  didn’t get to see my kids….I did find this darling letter that Indy wrote to the Easter Bunny when she was like 6 or 7.  Makes me smile!

“Dear Easter Bunny,
These are the things I would like for Easter. ( by the way they are just the things I would like to get for Easter) IM Me, the Webkinz Schnauzer, the Webkinz Himalyan Cat, a cute swimsuit, two walkie talkie, Hannah Montana curly extensions, (pink and brown) Hannah Montana guitar bag, Hannah Montana PJs, Hannah Montana shirts, Andrew Clements books, ( I don’t need any of Mommy’s books because she’s my Mommy) and some good Peeps. ( marshmallow candies if you didn’t know)    Love, Indy”

And there were some peeps in those gift bags I shipped yesterday, but no Webkinz or Hannah Montana stuff!  LOL!

Happy Thursday! We got in some great new arrivals this week!

I am so excited to announce that our next in person eBay class will take place on Tuesday, April 9th from noon to 4pm. This is a short 4 hour class and you will leave with an item or 2 listed on eBay. You will also learn some of the most important things to know and do when selling on eBay.

I will be sending some lessons to you by email in the days leading up to the course so that we are all on the same page.

To be eligible to take this class, you must be computer savvy and own a laptop which you will bring to the class. You will also bring several items to list!

Space is limited and the price is $297 and you will receive a goodie bag.  Fun Fun!

It will be a blast and I am so excited to get back into teaching others how to make extra money from home. Please email me with any questions. Space is limited so here is a link to sign up.

It will be modeled after my 6 week on-line Six Step Course, but since it is in person you will still get the same benefits.  And yes, that is a really OLD photo of me!

Here is more info about the course……

Maybe you need to earn some extra cash; maybe you just want to clean out your garage but don’t want the hassle of a garage sale. Maybe you inherited some antiques and don’t know how to turn them into money, or you need to supplement a fixed income. Whatever the reason for needing some extra CASH, Lynn Dralle has the solution! AND she is going to share her tips and tricks so you can make that solution work for you!

Lynn is offering her second ever live in Ventura course to teach you the basics of selling on eBay. Even if you have been selling on eBay for a while, this course will still teach you more than enough to make it worth your while.

In most classes, the teacher lectures while the students listen. Not in Lynn’s course! Lynn actually expects you to list something in front of her :).

What has been keeping you from making a go of selling on eBay? Maybe you found the listing process overwhelming. Maybe you couldn’t find the time to acquire all the technical knowledge eBay seems to require. Maybe you just found the whole prospect intimidating. Maybe you have sold things on eBay, but didn’t have much success getting the prices you hoped for. If so, then this is just the course for you. Lynn Dralle will show you just how easy and profitable selling on eBay can be.

Here is what some of Lynn’s recent graduates have to say about her course:  Keep in mind that these testimonials are about my ecourse….but you will be getting this knowledge in PERSON.  Even better!

“I enrolled in Lynn’s eCourse and turned my business around completely. By following Lynn’s carefully written instructions and applying them to my eBay site I now have over 1100 listings and continue to grow both in sales and knowledge.

Let me share with you one of my sales – I found a dinnerware set – Villeroy and Boch, Riviera pattern at a local resale shop. I paid $12.00 for the entire set, including lots of serving pieces. To date I have sold over $700.00 of this pattern and still have some pieces available. This was truly a remarkable experience.

Lynn’s eCourse showed me how to enhance my listings, how to take better pictures, where to look for merchandise, how to pack and ship to prevent breakages and much, much more. And now, the Queen of Auctions has her own binder on my bookshelf. I constantly refer back to the materials that I printed and I count her as one of my friends. She is always there to help.

Without this course it would have taken me years to learn what I now know. I am so very grateful. Time = Money and that’s what I got from this course – more sales, sales, sales!!!

– Auntie Suzi”

“I cannot tell you how much I appreciate the work you have put into this course. I taught at the College Level and you are one of a very few who knows how to transfer knowledge into learning -hallelujah!!!

– Cauleen Viscoff, Canada”

“My goodness, what a home run you hit with this lesson! It is so full of great information that I had to go over it several times. You are an outstanding teacher; I have put some of your lessons to use this week and that saved me a few costly mistakes. Thanks again for giving us such valuable information.

– Margaret (Peggy) McIlvain Texas”

“Just wanted to let you know I am really enjoying the lessons. As the Young people would say, you have really ‘turned me on’ to this eBay thing.

-Shirley Jones, Texas”

Here is a photo of me and my students from the first in person Ventura class that was held on March 19th.

Here is a testimonial from Val that she posted on Insta…..”Thanks for the great class, Lynn!! I came in feeling totally intimidated about eBay and left with a feeling of accomplishment and a path forward. Love the swag bag with all those great tools for success”

And then one from Nicole, “Good Morning Lynn! I had such a great time at the class yesterday!! Thank you so much for helping us get started with eBay! You are a wealth of knowledge!!” And Nicole has already sold 2 items!
I was in Orange County this past weekend for a celebration of life for Greg Summers (he and his wife Cyndee are eBay friends from years ago). The celebration was held at their home on what should have been his 62nd birthday. It was incredible!

Cyndee and her boys got up in front of us and gave amazing memorials for Greg. Talk about a tear jerker. Ughhhh.

The next morning we went out to breakfast with my great eBay friends Jason Tiki and Staci who were in town from Vegas…They show up in a lot of my newsletters and we hadn’t seen each other in a while.  Great to reconnect and catch up even though it was for a sad reason.  And then breakfast was at a wonky restaurant called the Popping Yoke….hmmmm.

Here is what we are looking for in the main store.  Remember, larger pieces of furniture must be approved by me first, please text to 760-880-3535 or email to lynnsventura@gmail.com
