Dolly wants to share her lucky day with you all

Today, I woke up to head to my art class when the phone rang. I answered it and it was a friend of mine who I used to see at the auctions I loved to go to. We stopped going a couple of year ago. She wanted to tell me that she was at an auction and there was tons of dollhouse items there, not dollhouses but littles, and roomboxes.
Well, I took off and got there and almost fainted when I saw how much stuff there was. Naturally, I bid on it and the prices were to die for. I got most of the lots for $10, 20 dollars and it was all great stuff. When I went to go home I realized I had filled up my car to the brim. Thank God my girlfriend didn't answer her phone when I called to see if she wanted to come with me. I have boxes and boxes of stuff to go through and it will take me dayss to complete the task.
I am so excited, I just wanted to share my good luck. I will take some pictures to show you what I got. Naturally, I will have to list some of this stuff to get some of my money back but I will just enjoy myself in the mean time. Dolly

Hi Toni, thanks for responding to my post. Your right the dollhouse fairies really blessed me with this haul. I took some pictures of my dinning room table and livingroom just to show you how much stuff there was. My table was piled high. It took me 2 days to sort through everything and I found some real treasures. The woman who owned these items belonged to NAME and I think she used to do shows.
I didn't bid on everything there because I knew I couldn't afford to get everything so I did miss out on a few lots that were really nice. There was several boxes of Petite Princess items and they went higher then I wanted to spend. there was also a lot of 1/4" furniture that was really lovely and I wish now that I had gotten them. I was a shame that things were going so cheap compared to what they are worth. I will be listing some stuff as soon as I figure out where I am going to put all this stuff. I took some pictures last night and will try to put then on. Dolly

Darn it I still can't remember how to post the picture. If you go to that site using those words except for the number at the end you can go to my photobucket site. I uploaded tons of pictures last night. Now I have to go back and delete a bunch because for some reason I had copies of copies. Frustating. Dolly

Thanks so much for posting the picture. If you look closely at it you will see that it is 1" scale with a 1/2" scale and then a 1/8" scale. Amazing. Dolly

Hi Toni, the womans name is Sharon Krauss. I was told that the auction before the one I went to, they auctioned off quite a few of her roomboxes that had won awards. They were in cases and went very low. Sad, because she was a wonderful artist. Dolly

As you can see I am still having trouble posting pictures but as least I can get this on. This is really neat. The top comes off and inside there is a long counter and 12 stools, also a toaster, coffee maker. It also has a roll of silver tape. I have never seen anything like this before and will be listing it probably. Please let me know if you know about this. It is called a Trolley Diner. Dolly

WooHoo Dolly! I am SOOOooooohappy for you! It looks like you had a great day, and got some wonderful stuff. I am so excited to see more. The ME room box is so beautiful, and when I realized it incorporated 3 sizes I was blown away. Amazing! Yay for you girl!

WOWZA!!!! You hit the Mother Lode!!!!
What fun!! I love the roombox; rather fond of the Mary Engelbreit look myself.. what a blast!
I tried looking in your PB album but it said (gasp) "forbidden" and that I did not have permission to look.
:::sad puppy eyes::::
I'm sorry I didn't see this until now.. just been busy and hadn't popped in...

Hi Choca, I think if you go to the post that says" I will try to post pictures if I can remember" and click on one of the pictures I posted it may take you to my photobucket site. It did it for me at least, I went right into my pictures. Try that if your interested in seeing some more of what I got. There is also another album titled items I got at a auction and there are more of what I bought that day. Good to see your still with us.
If you know anything about the trollly diner I would appreciate it. I have done some research on it but can't seem to find anything. It's really nice, but I want to list it. Dolly

No Dolly, photobucket is doing a good job of protecting your privacy, and the albums show to US as forbidden. 
When you've got time, post a few photo links at a time.
We're patient

Yep, what BMD said.
YOU can see your OWN albums, but we can't.
It IS possible to change the privacy setting on ONE album, and that's an option....
If you want me to write out the instructions for posting with the HTML link...let me know and I'll do it for you.
It's not hard...
(See ^^^^^^^^ up there where it says HTML! clicking on that gives you an option. There are a couple of ways to do it, too)

Hi Choca, your a sweetheart for offering to post the instructions again, I hated to ask. The last time you posted the instructions I wrote it all down and that is what I have been using to try to post. I am using a different computer now because my son gave me a laptop for Christmas. I followed your instructions, but just as I am going to finish the deal a page pops up says something like I need administration approval. I don't know what they are telling me and it is driving me crazy. This afternoon my son is coming and I am going to pick his brain and see if he can help me post some pictures. If now I will put me Photobucked site on here so anyone can get into it. thanks for the offer, you are so kind. Dolly

Hi everyone. I was wondering if you all could help with one of the items I got at the auction. I have done some research on this Trolly diner but I can't seem to come up with anything. I want to list it on Ebay but first want to know what I am talking about. It really is unique. Made beautifully, but its not finished. I have a idea what I want to start it at but first wanted to see what anyone would know about it.
