This pretty little needlework sampler has been hanging on our kitchen wall for years. Lately, I find myself eyeing our beloved possessions to see what I can weed out and sell. So, during dinner last night, I said to the family, "Would anyone mind if I sell that Home Sweet Home cross stitch?"The husband: "I never liked it."
The daughter: "It's pretty ugly."
The son: "I hate that thing!"
Just goes to show you...If you don't ask, you'll never know!
I'll slap a price tag on it, and sell it in time for Thanksgiving.

Oh that's funny! Yep sell that thing! One man's trash is another man's treasure...words we all live by!
Great for Fall decor!!!
I told my son, I was having a living estate sale. I do not need anything, but a bed and bath.
Love the family's reaction -- at least it wasn't something you loved!
I think I would paint the frame it's in first and I'm sure it would look a lot prettier! Then if you still don't like it, sell it!
If it was up to my family, they'd say get rid of everything, so I don't ask. Surely someone will love that little needlework piece. Best wishes, Tammy
Um, I totally bought this today at a Vintage Gathering. I plan to paint the frame, hang it and wait to hear the hubs say "that's ugly." I actually have the perfect little wall space for it.
wonderful!!! {{hugs}} Michelle
