Every Tuesday morning before 10 a.m. a line forms outside The Courtyard store in Hinsdale, Illinois where shoppers wait for the doors to open, so they may check out the most recent arrivals of fine consignment and home decor merchandise at this fine resale furnishings shop. It's located at 63 Village Place, just south of the downtown Hinsdale train depot (up a brick walkway). Each week, the store volunteers unveil a fresh set of items for sale. The nicest part is that all proceeds of the store benefit the Wellness House, an independent community group that works to improve quality of life for area residents affected by cancer, through support groups, psychosocial support, information and education. Each piece of merchandise receives a price reduction every 30 days, for two months. After 90 days, if the item has not sold, the consignor may either reclaim the item or make arrangements to have it auctioned. Looking for a unique gift or special treasure? Stop by The Courtyard Tuesdays - Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. to peruse their lovely selection of fine art, jewelry, rugs, crystal, silver and other home accessories. Volunteers at the store display the home wares in stylish vignettes, so it's a decorator's paradise, changing every week. All gifts purchased at The Courtyard, come with a special tag, explaining the charitable program.
