June 7th, 2010

You guys spoke and I tried to listen. We are going to go ahead and do a big sale!

Mark your calendars, gas up your cars, put on clean underwear because we are having an all out ESTATE SALE at the Brick House. All of this and MORE will be available for your shopping pleasure on Saturday, June 12th from 9am till 4pm.

Yeah, you want this!

OMG. So much crap for your house!

I got too much stuff, and it’s overwhelming to list it all online. I’m going crazy just trying to figure out what to do with all this crap it till Saturday.  Hopefully I can sell a lot of it at the sale and then Craigslist the rest of the bigger ticket items. If there is anything you desperately want RIGHT NOW, please email me at contact@the-brick-house.com and we can discuss. Sorry homies shipping is a-making me crazy! I know I suck!

When I went to go post the sale on Craigslist it reminded me not to worry too much…

      It looks like heaven on your patio! I am SO in love with the mosaic coffee table and the couch. D*mn that I live in Missouri.

      Good luck with the sale.

      p.s. if you change your mind on shipping you can send me that sweet mosaic coffee table and make me the happiest girl on the block. :)

      rats.
      what’s left?

    4. Chantel I. on 06/07/2010:

      Rock on! This is a kick ass estate sale. I would die for that Nelson slat bench, but being a few thousand miles away makes it impossible. I hope some passionate Brickies get good deals next weekend.

    5. Rina on 06/07/2010:

      *sob* I wanna come but I’m stuck way up here in rainy BC, Canada.

    6. Brismod on 06/07/2010:

      You could furnish another entire house with your sale. Good luck. I hope people come in droves with wallets full of cash.

    7. THE BRICK HOUSE on 06/07/2010:

      Me too!

    8. Bianca on 06/07/2010:

      Oh that gorgeous white sofa. Oh I would put my hand up for that one straight away, too bad for me I live over here in Australia. Otherwise I would ship it right now !!

      All the best with the sale.
      Wont be too hard to sell these items.

    9. Ashley on 06/07/2010:

      Eff. Eff. Eff. Why do I have a plane ticket to SF that morning?

    10. Fat Cat on 06/07/2010:

      Ok, I’ll take the white sofa, the fake Eames lounger, the CH lotus bowl, that mushroom thingy, the nature morte painting… No wait, I live like 20,000 km away… F*ck!
      Fingers crossed you get lots of customers and lots of $$$ !!!

    11. sissi on 06/07/2010:

      why on earth i had to be born in italy?! i would buy EVERYTHING of that gorgeousness!

    12. Tania on 06/07/2010:

      Ditto I live far away in Melbourne, Australia… but i bought that mosaic table in spirit and it looks great in my lounge room.

    13. April on 06/07/2010:

      If I was anywhere near you, I’d be there. That “George Nelson Style Slat Bench!” caught my eye. Would look great on our tiny house porch, once it’s covered…

    14. Coletta on 06/07/2010:

      I cry to know that I will not be going to your sale. I am more than two hours from you!
      Studio Pottery…me want!
      Orange Chaise…me want.
      Malm Fireplace..me want!

      can you hear me crying?????

    15. erin@designcrisis on 06/07/2010:

      Is someone seriously contemplating not going when they are only 2 hours away???

      Go Morgan!

    16. akemi on 06/07/2010:

    17. andy on 06/07/2010:

    18. LaShaune on 06/07/2010:

      Are you sure you wont ship a pillow and painting to Houston? Even if I ask real nice with a sweet southern drawl?

    19. Wendy on 06/07/2010:

      Great stuff, Morgan! Wish I lived on the other side of the country. I’m going to add a link to your post on my blog. Perhaps some old Cali-friends can make it out your way. Good luck!

    20. Summer on 06/07/2010:

      Single shoe. Second photo. Mine.

    21. Suzy8track on 06/07/2010:

      Wowza! You have a ton of great stuff! Sucks that I’m on the East Coast..GRRRR! Looking at these photos makes me cry a little.

      Good luck with your sale!

    22. melissa on 06/07/2010:

      Do it on Sunday too, my ass has to be at work at Disneyland at 11:15 on Saturday morning.

    23. laura on 06/07/2010:

      shoot! I live in Chicago, but your sale looks like the jackpot.
      I just ordered fur to re-upholster a bench like the one your selling.
      boo.

    24. jennifer in sf on 06/07/2010:

      Oh man. I’m having to seriously restrain myself from renting a car (van) and driving down there. Why is this state so damn long?

    25. LibertyJB on 06/07/2010:

      Oh dang! I want to come, but I’m getting married the next day. Drats! Love the hexagonal tables though!

    26. Sue on 06/07/2010:

      I’m crushed…I’m actually contemplating driving a uhaul…from st. louis! ugh :( oh wait, bummer, 1800 miles and over 200 bucks in gas, never mind

    27. Patti on 06/07/2010:

      Love all of your stuff. I will be there Sat. afternoon. Don’t sell everything before I arrive. Can’t wait. I want that Nelson style bench and white round table with the Bertoia style side chairs.
      Can I purchase early and pick up Sat night?

    28. THE BRICK HOUSE on 06/07/2010:

      The table is ikea and I totally forgot to move the Bertoia chairs. That’s our patio table and chairs that are always on the porch. I’m a lazy asshole and forgot to move them.

    29. Patti on 06/07/2010:

      Morgan, haha not a problem.(but seesh what a tease). Not a problem plenty of other treasures. Hope to meet you Sat.

    30. Jill on 06/07/2010:

      i love that sofa! it’s pretty perfect. Good luck with your awesome sale, I’m sure you won’t need it – but good luck anyway from one of your canadian buddies ;-D

    31. caol on 06/08/2010:

      omg. you’re killing me here. I would love to swing if only I wasn’t in portland, or. grrrrrrrr I want that eames lounger. that is so gorgeous!

    32. stephenny on 06/08/2010:

      We’re coming from Redlands cash in hand!

    33. lisa mertins on 06/08/2010:

      hooray! (i’ll) be there – aloha!

    34. Airika on 06/08/2010:

      Shocking that you are selling so many jems.

      Even more shocking is that you are inviting the world to The Brick House.

      But the most shocking thing of all is that you made a flyer with a font other than Helvetica.

      I wish I could come. I have to work. That sucks. Maybe I can come after work and pick through the remains.

    35. Airika on 06/08/2010:

      How much for that shoe in the firs picture?

    36. THE BRICK HOUSE on 06/08/2010:

      That shoe was working as a door stop. So like $10? It’s “upcycled”.

    37. Tamisha on 06/08/2010:

      I heart those white bamboo chairs. Too bad I live on the wrong coast. Good luck and I hope you sell wads for wads!

    38. diana on 06/08/2010:

      along the lines with the rest of the comments — will you ship to the UK???? I’m groaning with envy.

    39. Damnit! I really want those giant yellow table lamps and the bamboo chairs and the egg chair! and the bar cart! Grr.

    40. Erin on 06/09/2010:

      Oh my god I want to cry so hard. Why do I have to live in Maryland? Why? This is my dream event.

    41. Jackie on 06/09/2010:

      F U K
      I wants those white patio chairs. Cannot fathom you parting with them. They ought to go on your back patio when you get that door covered. They’re gems.
      Oh and I want the “Nelson” bench and the sofa and the yellow pendant lamp and the fireplace.

      Besides, I live in a studio in Brooklyn.

      Hope you clean up!
      The pool idea sounds refreshing too!

    42. Jackie on 06/09/2010:

      That didn’t make a ton of sense. I’m tired. 

    43. Angela on 06/09/2010:

      I’m coming! But I’m also curious if you’re giving house tours. I’m also excited to meet you and “the boy” in the flesh!

    44. kelly on 06/09/2010:

      Too far & too late for me… but that doesn’t mean I won’t put a shout out to all my Angeleno friends. Good Luck!

    45. Summer on 06/09/2010:

      I may seriously drive down from Toronto for your amazing collection…

    46. alex sunday on 06/10/2010:

      Coletta! you’re only 2 hours away!!
      I’m in Australia and am looking for flights. Ok, i’m not, but if it were only a 2 hour drive standing between me and this sale, I’d be there!

    47. Danyelle Hadaway on 06/11/2010:

      I must have those lamps. Please let me know if you can ship them. I will be willing to pay. Please email me. Everything else, I covet, but I need those lamps… Good luck with your sale.

    48. lojo on 06/11/2010:

      I Love everything there- I want the sofa, the malm and the two black armchairs.
      I actually had that orange chaise (mine was a crappier brown though) when I lived in Tx. I had to leave it and it still haunts me!

    49. gina on 06/11/2010:

      Love your stuff! Let us know how the sale went. I live in Portland (or I’d be there adding to all my stuff), and I’ve also had a booth in an antiques place here. I ended up breaking even by the time I paid rent, insurance and commission. I’ve been thinking about doing an estate sale, too, to get myself out from under my mid-century/vintage collection, but wonder if people will want to pay garage sale prices. Bummer I’m too lazy to Etsy it all and ship. Good luck on the sale!
