Why consign or shop consignment?

\

1. It's good for you and it's good for the environment.

It's good for you because it keeps your closets and cupboards filled with only the things you actually love and use. It turns your cluttered closets into cash. It keeps usable items out of the landfill.

2. Consigning adds space to your home and money to your wallet.

Your home is  freed from items that you don't love or that don't add usefulness to  your life.  The money in your wallet allows you to participate in other activities that add joy to your life.

3.  The thrill of the treasure hunt

That cute dress that costs $40 in the department store is $8 at the consignment shop.  It's a thrill to find, not a guilt trip.  

Consignment shops are full of treasures that will bless your home and not dent the wallet.  Selling your own items there blesses everyone.

Bigger, Better, Beautimous!

The new shop is coming together and we are enjoying all of the extra space to fill with new yarn and more colors.  Come by and visit us soon.

New things...

We are all moved in and unpacked.  This is a peek at the new department.  There are lots of unique items on the racks just waiting for our new customers.  The new shop has two big rooms.  One is filled with yarny goodness and one is filled with clothing items that will make everyone smile.  Several of the regulars who have helped move us have already walked out with great finds.  

We accept gently used women's, children and infant clothing on consignment.  One of our most popular sections is the maternity section.  If you are interested in consigning items, bring them in clean, pressed and ready to sell.  We list most items for 3 months. Payment is sent out via Paypal when the item sells.  If you would like more information, email or call the shop.

And in the next chapter....

I was a little emotional last night as I locked up.  It is the last time this shop will look like this.  Friday afternoon Stacy will begin to pack up all of the yarn and shrink wrap all the spinners.  She thinks it can be done in 2 days.  I am not sure you can pack up all the stuff in this space in 2 days.  It took 4 years to get this way.  It is a lot of stuff.  There is a ton of yarn, tools, kits, and fiber.  The memories are here too.  In my wildest imaginings, I didn't see this coming.  This was supposed to be a career plan and a business move but it has become a destination and a series.  People hang out here when they can.  We have a cast of regulars and guest stars.  We have a background music and laughter that is not canned. 

The same people that hang out here are helping the shop to move.  I am truly appreciative of that.  It is enormous.  In our new space, we will have more room for more people and creative energy.  We have room for more yarn and fiber and tools.   We will have the same laughter and vibe in the little shop just more of it.  See you in the new space soon.
