Oprah Winfrey was busy this weekend selling off some of her possessions for a good cause. The media mogul auctioned off around $600,000 worth of furniture, art, and antiques at a massive yard sale held Saturday in Santa Barbara.
Proceeds from the event, which took up three large tents on the grounds of the Santa Barbara Polo and Racquet Club, went to Oprah's Leadership Academy for Girls in South Africa.
The biggest sales of the day included a set of six 18th-century Louis XVI armchairs, which went for $60k, two 13-foot sofas, upholstered in crushed velvet, which brought $8,750, and a 16x20 inch TV Guide cover photo of Winfrey, which sold for $3,000.
