seller's remorse

I definitely had it - seller's remorse, that is!
My husband took a $2 (or was it $4) find
and found this incredible design under the brown paint 
which he then proceeded to carefully remove.
He crafted a door to replace the missing one.
I listed it on a facebook garage sale at a rather high price (I thought)
thinking it wouldn't sell
and then I could keep it.
It didn't happen that way.  Maybe I should have asked more for it!

  3. Well, at least you listed it at a higher price then you might have ordinarily. I'd be mourning the loss of that one too!

  5. Your husband does have the magic touch! He would have a blast here in The Netherlands shopping with us at Dutch thrift stores. Linda@Wetcreek Blog and Wetcreek Museum Blog

  6. Oh my goodness, I would have sellers remorse too for that lovely piece.

    Can't keep it all or sell it at the right price either. We live and learn, hopefully.
