Oh gosh, if anyone remembers our “Best Sale on the Planet” sale on Bailey in Naperville back a couple of months ago, you’ll know that this sale will give that one a run for its money!!  This is an absolutely TERRIFIC sale that you will not want to miss, in an enormous rambling home in Downers.  While we don't typically schedule sales on holiday weekends, this one deserves a special 4 day event...so save some time for this awesome sale…you won’t regret it.

The homeowner is downsizing and selling most of her wonderful house full of treasures.  Some people have a knack for finding fabulous antiques and collectibles and others put together a mish mosh of stuff...this gal had the EYE!  You walk into the home and think you wouldn't change a thing.  There are absolutely fabulous antique pieces, interspersed with gorgeous lamps, fixtures, linens, quilts, furniture, art - it's an eclectic paradise, and lucky you, you get to shop it.  There is a three car garage, with a second floor to the garage and you won't want to miss anything there.  Then, inside, we have three floors of wonder.
