and methodology thru the International Society of

The Perfect Thing:
An upscale consignment boutique in Wheaton, IL, The Perfect Thing, was
the necessary

Martin and her staff were
able to apply their expertise to selling
individual items as well as entire estates. Beginning in
2004 Kate

retired from M & M Sales and the estate sale company went
under the umbrella of THE PERFECT THING Inc as well as
Judith's appraisal business.
