07 28 08_1266, originally uploaded by The Chateau.

I am not sure what it is but I seem to do very well with Ebay!.. I have tried several other venues and it just doesn't seem the same. So I have been going threw a few of my things and I just decided to list this beautiful Westmoreland Panel Grape Milk glass Pedestal Cake Plate! Very pretty..huh. Starting price of $29.99.

So if you would like to see my store I am working feel free, I would love your feed back on how you sell your wares!.
