Yes, there is a (somewhat) happy ending to my Vera story. I was able to sell or return almost every last piece of my Vera excess. Yes, you read that correctly. With the exception of what I took into this Vera mess (some Country French in blue and yellow, my beloved Chanticleer) I am down to one pattern - yellow bird. I have a super tote, cool keeper, wristlet, lunch bag, zip id and a cosmetic bag. I recently purchased a NWT super tote in Pirouette through craig's list (a bargain at $20 - even more of a bargain as I will use it).
Unfortunately I fell in love with Loves Me and purchased two items from the Crabtree outlet in Kenosha. Not so bad considering my former binges at the outlets (purchasing upwards of $200 or items at one time). I am on the hunt for one or two more LM and YB items.
And there were a few slip-ups like buying a microfiber tote on eBay that arrived damaged. But overall I"m doing really, really well.
I also sold off all of my vintage Gucci and most of my vintage Coach bags to finance the purchase of two Louis Vuitton bags. Happily those are too expensive to become a real habit.

Goodbye Pyrex collection
Selling almost all of my Pyrex antique and not-so-antique mixing bowl, refrigerator dishes and the like. What has come over me?
