very pretty

In case you were wondering what to get for me for Jeebus’ birthday … craigslist has the answer.

Hands and arms!! (West Linn)

These things are VERY interesting. Arms and hands that LOOK SO REAL!!!

My friend’s mother lived near the Lloyd Center. My friend contacted me saying her mother was ill. Her mom and I became friends. She is a lovely person! I told my friend her mom was not up to living alone. So, she came to Portland and took her mom back east. My own mom and I cleaned out her apartment, and we are selling her things for her.

One set of things we found were these prosthesis arms and hands. They look like the real thing! My friend’s mom has several she took with her and she does not want these. (She had part of her left arm amputated 30 or more years ago, and she wears a beautiful prosthesis regularly, and her car is set up to need only one hand to drive.)

I checked with a doctor, and he told me there is no medical value in these. I told my friend I would sell these things and donate the proceeds to a charity. My friend is happy about this.

There seems to me to be many possible craft uses for these.

See the photos.

I put them on the kitchen table in my little trailer and went to get my camera. As I walked back into the trailer, I jumped just a little when I saw the hands on the table. The looked alive! Definitely wierd!

What price can I ask for these? I can’t see just putting them into a land fill! Maybe a place to start would be 30 dollars for the set? I don’t know. Make an offer. There are a 4 pieces… Very pretty…

You can see my other listings by typing “Toby West Linn ” in the search box. I have things for sale in different categories so in the category box go to the top and click on “All selling/wanted”. I also have many things not listed so just ask if I have something you want, and we may be lucky!

I am selling all kinds of things as a way to supplement my 88 year old mother’s small pension and to downsize the amount of extra stuff we have! I want to give you GREAT prices and REAL value and at the same time make a few bucks! If I can’t do that, I HATE selling! So, keep this in mind and tell me what you would like. Ask for deals and favors!

I live 2 miles from the 205 Fwy. The directions I will give you to my house are EASY to follow!

Also, I live on the Tualatin River. If it is nice weather, come on out with kids and/or doggies!! I love them all! I have a big safe yard and two adorable orange cats!
