On the heels of the news Oprah Winfrey is marketing her Harpo properties in Chicago’s River West neighborhood, comes news she’s selling a lot of her household furnishings out in California. My old buddy, Montecito Journal columnist Richard Mineards, reports Winfrey has hired folks to stage a tented auction of furniture, carpets and accessories from her 23,000-square-foot Montecito mansion — set for Nov. 2 at the Santa Barbara Polo Club.
