<p>[QUOTE="Ally330, post: 3153239, member: 17683"]Also one last question(s) about shipping. You said you wrap with tissue paper first. Would you also stuff the inside of these pieces with tissue paper? If so how full? Like a little or packed tight? Also do you pack the individual boxes tight with bubble wrap or news paper? Packing supplies here (northeast Ohio) are cheap. Also we have some great glass in my area.</p><p>The hideous "carnival glass" (sorry carnival glass lovers <3 its just my personal taste) is a huge seller around here. Its so over saturated but it just keeps selling. Im not sure why I'm telling you that. I guess to show I have been paying attention to values and trends, especially in my area. We have a great flea market here called Hartville, lots of Amish, very "country" themed antiques. I grew up in Southern VA and the emphasis was on colonial. Here its glass, especially depression and carnival.</p><p>I myself love european and American porcelain, china, ironware, and pottery. Juengstil (spelling??) , arts and crafts, decorative tiles, and the optimism of the pre ww1 years. The dawning of ideas. That sort of thing.</p><p><br /></p><p>And because there is so much glass here, lovely French pottery feels more special. Bumpkin decorated limoges is <i>still</i> limoges to me. I can take my time selling it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry for rambling.
