Afternoon Coffee & Switching Up Poshmark

It’s 2:30 & I just made coffee in my camera mug. These days, the inspiration to get up early is dwindling. This social distancing has become so isolating that I’m about to forget humanity is even out there. I’m thankful that I do have pets that bring comfort during this time of absolute confusion as to what to do during the day. In 2.5 hours my husband will be off of work and we will venture to Walmart to get some containers. The amount of items that I have to donate is turning into a pyramid. I’m about to dig a big hole and throw it all in. Hence, why I need containers.

A few days ago I came up with the idea to change my direction in Poshmark. Recently, I have switched from selling clothing to home decor. This was a big decision in and of itself. Then before I can really get going on that, the Corona Virus hits and I end up shutting my selling platforms down. I will tell you, it has given me a lot of time to think. A challenge I face is whether or not a reseller should actually like the items they sell. I’ve come to the conclusion that it really just depends on the person.

I can only speak for myself (obviously) but I need to sell items that I can relate to. Be that in an artistic, spiritual, emotional, etc, kind of way. Ive decided I’m going to really focus on self care because it is something that I’ve recently become passionate about. America as a whole seems to stay burned out. Whether it is from stress, financial trouble, or other things. When you forget to do kind things for yourself (mind, heart, body) you forget to love yourself. I have an opportunity with my Youtube channel and selling apps to help with this. This idea totally sparked in the darkness. But I currently feel led to sell self care items. Let us see how it goes.

Before I go any further, I want to put out this one piece of advice. Everyone can see what you write, post, or upload on the internet. Therefore, if you have any really good business ideas, you may want to invest a $1 in a notebook that only your eyes see. I love that people share & I’ve personally gotten so much inspiration from others. But when it comes to selling, you want to try to think outside the box a little. Poshmark, Mercari, and Ebay are such large platforms that you are literally selling alongside millions of resellers. Basically, if you find your edge, hide the hell out of it.

I do have a business notebook that I am going to be utilizing more to build this business vision that I have. The other day I wrote a list of items that made sense for me to sell, involving self care. I’m going to work on trying to make that list longer. With this new idea, I realized that the majority of things I am selling in my Poshmark closet will not work. This is not devastating, considering I really need a change. There were some items that could stay though, thankfully. Things would look a lot more promising if thrift stores were actually open. This challenges me to get creative though and see what I can find inside my house.

This is completely random but I want to try making faux stained glass window art. I have been seeing some really beautiful stained glass on Instagram lately. It inspired me to get a book on the real thing. Off I went to Amazon to order a DIY stained glass art book. A week or so later, after receiving this book, I realized making stained glass is way harder than I thought. After putting that idea on hold, I saw someones stained glass on Facebook the other day. I realized that the artist used the faux stained glass art technique to make hers. Off I go to Pinterest to figure out how to do this. Thankfully, faux stained glass is way easier to do than the real thing! If you are interested in faux stained glass, check out thewhoot’s blog on the topic here. Hoping to find these supplies at Walmart tonight.

Liquidating Poshmark Clothing

If you had told me a year ago that I would have to stop selling clothes, I would have been extremely confused. Back then, I could go to the Goodwill outlet and find a lot of clothes for a minimal price. The outlet didn’t smell like smoke. Quality items could be found without holes or stains. This is the main reason my hustle consisted of reselling clothes. Today, everything has changed. My Goodwill outlet is now so crowded that it is nearly impossible to find a parking spot. I can’t for the life of me find a dress or skirt there anymore. The past few times I have left with hardly any, if any at all, items to sell. Basically, reselling clothes has become so competitive and saturated that it has forced my hand to switch gears.

Now you may say, why not go to a regular Goodwill store. This is what I have been doing for the past year. I’ve exhausted myself going through rack after rack of clothes. Stains and smoke smell are present on many of the items at my local stores. If you do not have an eagle eye, you are going to miss a damage somewhere. Prices at my thrift stores have gone up. The dresses are now $5.99, pants $4.99 (I think), shirts $3.99, and shoes are $4.99. Those do not sound like large numbers. However, when you are a reseller, you know that you are going to have to invest in items before they sell. I have lately been investing $70-$100 per trip on clothing that I’m not sure if it will sell or not. It’s too much money for me to be spending when there is so much risk. It has taken me a while to come to terms with this. But, I am there now.

Yesterday, I spent a while taking down all of my clothing items from the my closet, bins, and the rack. I’m currently debating about whether or not to price them extremely cheap on Mercari in hopes of a quick sell. The local Goodwills in my area have closed down, so currently I have no where to donate these items too. It will depend on if I get inspired enough. I’ve been recovering from the flu for the past 4 weeks. I’m feeling done.

Though I am not selling clothing anymore, I will be selling home decor items. Especially vintage decor that I can find. I’ve discovered that I can purchase home decor items at a much lower price than clothing. You have to search though because a lot of decor is getting priced high these days. Something to be thankful for is that I started reselling back when I could get things really affordably. My mistakes did not cost me much debt. Anyone starting reselling today, if they don’t know what to buy, is going to have a bumpy road. I’ve trained my eye to spot damages and good deals quickly. I’ve noticed more often than not people notice what I have in my buggy. I usually get a compliment or that person who looks at me with jealousy. Truth be told, I don’t feel guilty for what I find because I know how long it took me to learn about items. I continue to learn by educating myself with reseller videos on Youtube. It’s not an easy process. Though everyone and their brother seems to be reselling right now, I know two things for a fact. In order to stick with reselling you must: 1. Truly love selling. 2. Need the money direly. If you are neither of these two things, I can save you a lot of time. Don’t resell. It can be incredibly stressful, financially it is easy to go underneath, and it will burn you out. I’m #1. I love selling. If toothbrushes sold, I would sell those. This is still my hustle.

Hope No One Needs A Ride : Poshmark Update

Something about me is that I seem to make big decisions when I am sick. Most likely because all my energy goes into laying horizontally and pondering ideas. A few years ago I decided to become a Poshmark seller when I was very ill with something miserable. This time around, while recovering from the flu, I decided a few things about reselling that I’m going to share with you. First, my Poshmark closet called GlassHanger can be found here, for anyone interested.

I’ve had to come to the hard realization that thrift stores are in major competition with resellers. Goodwill now has an online Ebay style shop where they sell all the things you can never find in their store. Prices all over the US have risen at thrift stores, making it hard to buy a picture frame for under $4 these days. I understand that they are a business and this is the best move for them financially. Reseller’s have businesses too though, and not enough of us are getting creative (in my opinion). I, as all resellers do, work incredibly hard for my money. To spend it on a $4 shirt that is going to sit there collecting dust for a year is not my idea of a profitable investment. I’m losing my train of thought because my chihuahua, Daisy, is snoring so loud. Can we just take a minute to appreciate how rotten they are….. I always tell my husband they have been “over rescued.”

Back to what I was saying though, I just cannot continue to invest all of this money in such a slow return. It’s a personal choice and I always say, do what works for you. I’ve decided to liquidate my clothing, hence the thumbnail picture at the top. Those were just today’s boxes & packages of things I sold. The past two days also looked quite similar. I’ve discovered people love for you to almost give things away. I priced my clothing around $8 and dropped it from there. Currently, most things are around $7. It’s hard letting go of items I worked so hard for. If I am going to focus on selling more lucrative items though, it has to be done.

My new strategy is to look at my items as if they were paying rent. I’m going to be considering EVERYTHING about the item before deciding to sell it. The size of something does matter because it is obviously taking up space. I’m lucky enough to have a wonderful husband that has been supportive of me having an office to store the chaos in. However, my anxiety is shooting through the roof because I need order back in my life. Piles of things make me lose my dam mind. I’m going to try out selling more home decor, art, glass items, tiny vintage things, wall decor, and basically other things that can fit onto shelves. Dresses are something I realized I’m not ready to give up. Not yet. I love the material of dresses and how graceful they can look. Since dresses go for $5.99 at Goodwill, needing to be selective is an understatement. Many of my dresses I’m liquidating.

On a totally different note, I finally have uploaded another Youtube video on my channel Jenny Laura. You can click here to go check it out.

This was such an easy snack to make to take on the run. My husband and I both enjoyed eating these. It let me know two things. 1. The pre packed granola at the store is extremely over priced. 2. You do not have to have chocolate in your trail mix. I enjoyed the fact that I could add whatever nuts & dried fruit I wanted too. The next time around I am going to put some coconut in there. I’m trying to slowly learn how to make more edible things from Pinterest. If you would like to check out my Pinterest boards at Glass_Hanger click here. Everything from recipes, reselling, home decor, and DIY’s is located over there. I have an inspiration board located here where I post things that bring me peace to look at. In all reality, I doubt I would make most of it. It’s interesting how just visually having an escape can calm us. The same as reading a book and being transported into a completely different life. All of us need the ability to do that, at some point anyway. Not everything is about making money. Go get a book at the thrift store and let it take you some where. Money can’t buy that kind of trip.

The Verdict Is In: We Have The Flu

Yesterday, my husband and I felt so incredibly miserable. Jeremy brought up the fact that we should probably go get flu tested. In my mind, thinking of the enormous amount of money that will cost. Initially, I told him that I’m sure we did not have that. I wanted to convince myself that it was just a virus. But Jeremy is NEVER this sick. I un plastered myself from the bed and took a shower. Whenever I am sick, my hair seems to refuse to dry. After a very long hair drying session, I layered on clothes (due to freezing from 102 fever) to go to the doctor. A few hours later, Jeremy and I both tested positive for the flu. Neither one of us have ever had the flu. There is no doubt that we would both agree on the fact that we don’t ever want this again. The flu medication really helped us start feeling stronger.

As miserable as being sick has felt, I know without a doubt that there are things to be thankful for. 1. I’m married and have support (both emotional & financial) 2. I have health insurance that allows me to get medication 3. That I work from home & that Jeremy was able to take a week off to recover. There was a time when I had to pay out of pocket to go to the doctor. Working long hours in and out of the rain was also something I was very familiar with. When you are desperate, you endure an enormous amount of suffering to get by. Because you have too. There is no other choice.

I look back at pictures and wonder how I survived it. It’s so scary and saddening to think of how many others are still in those shoes. When I went to the doctor I watched a woman have to walk out because her insurance was not accepted. It’s not fair that I could be seen and she could not, as we were both sick. One day, I hope there is major reform in healthcare. People with sickness need medicine. People with mental illnesses need counseling. To be denied these things is often the difference between surviving and not.

I just looked up to catch my cat, Snuggs, about to launch himself through the missing window of the china cabinet. Did I mention this is where I keep all the breakables that are for sale. 0-0 . So thankful I caught that one. Snuggs has his own wicker basket with blankets. And yet, he wants to sleep in the wash cloth box or the laundry basket. My other cat, Grizzly, has now taken to sleeping on the towel shelf. Instead of the pet store I need to go to Ikea and get them their own personal storage boxes.

Starbucks was on the list of things that had to happen today. That and mailing out 3 more orders. Jeremy was able to drive me to send out four other orders yesterday which I am very thankful for. When I am weak, driving is just not a good idea. He is better at focusing in stressful situations than I am. I’m going to work on going through my coats and pulling out what has not sold. I have the address now of a Christian company that helps people coming off of drugs. They take donations so I am trying to put some things together for them. In all reality, I may go lay down and stay down for the next several hours.

On a quick side note, I ordered some Russian nesting dolls today from a Youtube reseller that I follow called Thrifter, Junker, Vintage Hunter . Click her name to be taken to her channel. I love her personality and the cute figurine type items she finds at the store. She has an appreciation for that which is beautiful, even if it is broken. My connection with that outlook is strong. Back to the nesting dolls though… I was looking through her Ebay store which I will link here and came across some Snow White nesting dolls that were done well (in my opinion). She said that the set was missing 2 dwarfs but I decided I was okay with that. I paid $23 & she shipped out the same day which I was impressed by. As a reseller, I can tell you that is much easier said than done. I told my husband while going to Starbucks that I think I might start collecting these. He thinks I am high maintenance (and expensive) enough with my coffee consumption requirements. He might have to get a second job with my latest desire to collect wood dolls. (just kidding).

5 Reasons Reselling Strategies FAIL

Everyone is extremely motivated at first. The reality is though, that often we try to compete with everyone else in the business. AKA We burn the hell out QUICKLY. Find your rhythm & do what works for you. Everyone is different.
You may be selling the wrong items. I operated on observing other sellers, listening to Youtube videos, and selling just clothing. I’ve found clothing though to be extremely expensive to purchase (in my area), anxiety causing competitive, and all around miserable for me at this point. Start your selling strategy with what comes easy to you. I needed variety because I felt like I was suffocating under a stack of coats.
Customer service is a thing. How you treat, respond, and package items for your customers goes a long way. Your closet could be amazing but if your attitude sucks, so will any selling strategy your are trying to implement.
What you are trying to profit off each item (minus all fees and cost of goods) may be too high. You have to try & fail though to realize something does not work. Adjust what you are wanting to profit until you find an amount that works.
Organization. If you do not come up with a system to organize your inventory then I promise, you will be in a world of hurt. Even if it is just grouping similar items in the same place, it will make a difference. You will think more quickly and be able to locate your items when customers purchase them.

These things listed above are simply my opinion. Your journey may take you in a totally different direction. I write my advice based on my personal experiences and mistakes. Whatever you are doing, do what works for you. Never be afraid to think outside the box and get creative. Pinterest is a great resource for all kinds of ideas!

Can You Make Money On Poshmark ? & 16 Place Matts Later

I’m currently listening to GraceV to help me relax on Youtube. For those that suffer from anxiety, check out her ASMR channel. I’m coming down from a workout that I managed to push through at 10:45 PM. I walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes while listening to loud Taylor Swift Songs on my headphones. If you are struggling with exercise, I highly recommend music. Whether it is the radio, record, Alexa, phone, etc, it really helps. I wanted to write about today, because I have another one of those thrifting stories ….

I went to my favorite Goodwill today to do a little sourcing (cough…$80+ worth). With the way I scour the shelves at the thrift store, people must think I am checking for dust. I can’t tell you how many times I find things underneath, between, or behind items. The other day, I found a Pink TI84 Silver Calculator for $2.99 that I sold in 24 hours for $46 on Ebay. If I could just sell calculators, I totally would. I’ve only ever found one though so that is kind of an issue. Anyway, back to my story. While I was on my shelf scouring mission, a woman came up to me holding a glass object and asked me what I thought it was. I told her it could be a small planter. She then replied, well I was thinking of putting a candle in it. I told her I could see that. This intro conversation lead into a long conversation about her Christmas decorations & reselling. I know better than to tell people I am a reseller. Yet, today, clearly I forgot. As soon as I mentioned I resell on Poshmark I got the very common response of “I was thinking of trying that!” You mine as well sign away the next 30 minutes of your life. Brace yourself, an avalanche of how to get rich quick questions are going to be shot at you.

I gave her some tips and told her some items I personally choose to resell. She looked at the items in my buggy like she was not that impressed. I was just getting that vibe. Anyway, it lead into the very awkward question that inspired this blog: “Can you actually make a living at reselling?” That is such an inappropriate question to ask someone that has just told you they resell full time. Like, do you actually think I am going to tell you what I make? Who even are you? Please tell me your profession so that I can broach the subject of your income in the middle of the store. Ok I had my vent…. moving on… I told her that YES it is possible to make an income on Poshmark. You can make an income selling rocks (the pet rock was a thing in past). It all just depends on the items you have to sell, time you dedicate to it, etc. She seemed to want to make money but not so much put the work into selling the items. Again, I was just getting that vibe. Don’t get me wrong, she was nice. But the kind of nice that I do not trust. Ever talk to someone that asks you so many questions you almost tell them your blood type? And yet, looking back, you know that stranger would not make time to buy you coffee. Yeah, it was that kind of thing. Don’t come for me (as Stephanie Harlow says), I’m just being real with you.

Moving past my thrift store trilogy for today, I want to explain to you my level of insanity when I become exhausted. True Story. The FIRST trip in Goodwill I loaded up my cart with a good amount of breakable items. This is never a good situation when you plan to pack your buggy full. After what I think was a few hours, and a line of about 10 customers that were ready to kill me at checkout, I escaped with $58 ish dollars less on my debit card. I methodically loaded everything into the car, tied the bags, and let the ceramics ride copilot. They did not exactly “ride” for a while though. Upon taking the buggy back inside, I went to look for a SECOND TIME quickly (right…) at the linens. This is a section that up until recently, I have not taken a lot of interest in. I’ve discovered though that you can find some really nice baby blankets, lace, pillowcases, etc, over there. However, placemats my friends, is what occurred tonight. 16 of them that is. I kid you not, I just typed pillowcases. Then I sat here thinking, did I really get 16 pillowcases. That can’t be right. Oh Lord.

The reason I got the PLACE MATS is because they looked vintage & were elegant looking. To me anyway. Tomorrow, I may have a totally different outlook. I tried to decide if I wanted just 4, 8, or all of them. I was going to leave them to walk around but I know better than to do that. People swipe things faster than you can blink off shelves around here. Even if you are the only one in the store, take your item while you ponder it. I’m never alone. I think I am and I turn around and it’s literally like a swarm of bees (shoppers) throughout the store. I told my husband I got 16 placemats. He was like SIXTEEN? WHY? I told him I didn’t know. I was tired & my car was stuffed with bags. He relaxed when I told them that they were 42 cents each. My insanity cost us about $8. We then joked about the different combinations that could happen with the placemats. Like, we could keep 4 and sell 12. (I just typed 8 – Reasons I did not go into accounting). Or we could keep 8, have backups, and sell the other 8. I swear that I am going to look back and really laugh at the craziness of the lack of judgement in these buying decisions one day. It’s a good non fiction story though right ?

If anyone needs placemats, I’m your girl. For everything else, please ask someone else (just for tonight). If I can’t math, am buying mass linens, and worked out too close to midnight, my brain is fried. My chihuahuas current state is that she is snoring in her bear pillow basket. If you need a basket for your dog or cat, look at the thrift store. I found her a nice wicker one that she loves for I believe under $2. My cat, Snuggs, has taken up residence in my lap while I am trying to work. Therefore, I of course had to get him another basket. BOTH of them are snoozing in their baskets right now. They are rotten.

Poshmark: 8 Orders 1 NIGHT

Tonight, I feel like I should have had several cups of coffee. I’m trying to limit my caffeine intake so I survived off a few bottles of water. Fun times. I packaged up 8 Poshmark, Mercari, And Ebay Orders tonight. Currently, my Ikea bag is full to the brim with boxes & polymailers. Don’t ask me what I packaged, I’m too tired to remember. It’s a tough thing when I vent about reselling because, on the one hand, I am thankful to HAVE orders. I’ve had those days where I literally was waiting for any sign of one. Literally wanting to yell “Is anyone alive out there?” If you are a reseller, I am sure you can relate. Recently, I changed up my pricing strategy. Basically, I gave the hell up on my last strategy to profit a good amount off each item. By a good amount, I mean at least $10. Let me tell you, you could hear crickets in my closet when I tried that plan out.

I’m coming to a place where I am realizing that people want simplicity. Customers enjoy an easy to browse closet that contains a variety of items. Since Poshmark decided to hike up their prices (higher than the high rise jeans girls wear today) customers are now looking to pay bottom dollar for items. This means basically that I am screwed. Seriously. As a reseller, it cost so much money to acquire inventory when you are selling clothes. It does depend on where you live, but from what I can tell the prices are sky rocketing at all goodwills all over the country. I’m backing off from selling clothes. It’s too dam expensive to pay $4-$5 for one item that I have to hope will sell soon after. I’m now looking more into selling plush, throw pillows, home decor, coffee mugs, art, and basically anything of quality that I can get for under $3. Goodwill, I hope you are not reading this…. so help me if throw pillows go to $10 a pop.

For a while, I had categories in my closet because I thought it looked nice to split up items. I now think though that this may distract and confuse the customer because unfortunately, my category thumbnails are not always where they are supposed to be. When you share things on Poshmark, everything goes to the top. Somehow I always manage to miss a few items though, causing my closet to be a scramble of things. Tonight, the categories were deleted. I also changed my prices to nicer looking numbers. Maybe you are laughing. There are people out there though that like to see numbers like $10, $15, $20 and so on. As opposed to $6, $17, $89. The majority of items in my closet are priced between $15-$50. There are a few pieces of art that do jump higher but overall, that is the range. So far, two people have bundled a lot of items that they did not purchase. One person stated under my add that my item was from the Dollar Tree. Don’t you just love how customers love to help you advertise? -_- (That comment will go away because I flagged it.) One person on Poshmark purchased a vintage ceramic cat from me for $20. Another bought a Haagar jacket for $13 that I would never purchase again. On Mercari, my Disney Maui Plush sold for $9. His tattoos are cute but not enough for me to buy him again. I’ve had a Poshmark potential customer ask for measurements of an item. I swear, whenever that happens, people never purchase. I often wonder how people have the time to know their exact measurements. That is just me being tired and judgemental. Anyway, so far, that is what is happening. Success or no? I’m not exactly sure.

Tonight, while laying horizontally, I will make a thumbnail for this blog post. It was not a priority tonight though. Getting on the treadmill however was. In January I was SO motivated to exercise, go to the gym, and drink lots of water. What happens to people in February ? It is like I have multiple personalities when it comes to working out. This month has been very difficult and I’ve been off track daily. I’m still drinking bottled water but not as much. I need to put more energy into that because I can see how it makes me stay full. Last night I also got on the treadmill & thought I was on a roll. Tonight, a sloth looks energized compared to me. It’s 11 PM & I just don’t think walking for 30 minutes is going to happen. I will have to make sure it gets done tomorrow. I love being organized but have realized that I struggle greatly with it. When my depression gets bad, I lose track of tracking bills and keeping the office in a manageable state. My car and pocket book also start looking like I am a hoarder. I’m in a gray area right now because for a minute, I ran out of my medications. It is crazy how we can feel regular but in reality are plummeting downhill. Since getting my refill, I’m realizing that I definitely was doing that. My nightstand is stacked with unread books too. I tend to start buying lots of books when I’m feeling incredibly alone. Thankfully, the thrift store sells them cheap & will take them back as donations when I come to my senses that they are not getting read.

On that note, I am out -_- literally.

Unicorn Plush Haul

Today is Valentine’s Day. I should be feeling more romantic than ever considering the amount of conversation hearts I stuffed in my mouth last night. I was having killer cramps & trying to find some form of sugar in our house at 1 AM. I’m sure my PMS greatly affected my mental stability when it came to thrifting items yesterday. I clearly had sweets on the mind when I went to Goodwill because the largest plush I found was a Peeps Candy Bunny. My friends, had he been marshmallow filled, he would have been eaten before I got to the register.

I’m assuming that the previous Peep bunny owner also donated the other plushes I found. Each stuffed animal I plopped into my buggy was unusually soft, sparkly, and multicolored. If you ever find something you like, always look for a second. I can’t tell you how often I find matching items if I take the time to look. This is what happened when I discovered both of the mini llamas. I knew immediately I wanted to sell them together, as they were basically twins. Unicorns also still seem quite desirable. I’ve learned that animals, other than horses, can be unicorns too. I found a sparkly owl and pig in this category. It’s confusing but I have learned not to try to make sense of anything in life. Sweet purple Easter egg looking hippo also had to come along with us. Just because, how often exactly do you see a pastel hippo plush?

The last two items in the buggy are Chocolate Lab Pillows. The ladies that worked at Goodwill joked with me as I considered those pillows. There was a Poo Poo pillow that one of the ladies recommended going along with the two puppies. I definitely knew that was going to be a nope. I have never understood the trend with fecal matter. Who decides what becomes popular and plastered all over every retail item possible? I mean really. The puppy pillows are very sweet though. I am selling them separately but am hoping they will be sold together. I’ve definitely sold throw pillows on Poshmark. If you take a quick trip over to Marshalls you will realize how insanely priced one single pillow is. I bought a Christmas dog pillow there last year and still cannot believe I paid what I did for it. This is why everything I own is from a thrift store. It keeps me from having a life threatening anxiety attack when I go to the register.

Goodwill Thrift Haul

I have acquired a few more cute items to add to my Poshmark Closet. I must admit that it is hard to sell some of these items because they are so adorable. My goal is not to hoard so, alas, I must sell. The Easter bunny seesaw above is a vintage piece. Rarely, I find items that come in their original boxes, but this one was an exception. This rabbit playground figurine looks festive & whimsical. This would be beautiful sitting on an Easter coffee bar.

I may be jumping to conclusions but I would say that this narwhal is an artsy extravert. His wardrobe is not only colorful but creative. I found this long guy when I went to shuffle through the plush animals. A child was originally holding him but he ultimately got thrown back in. Immediately, I knew he needed to come home with me. I know that someone needs a cuddly, soft, and sweet looking narwhal in their life.

These fun cactus pillowcases have been sold from my Poshmark Closet. However, I definitely wanted to include them because they were an unusual find. This was my first time seeing smiling succulents that were dressed for a New Orleans Mardi Gras. These pillowcases are definitely going to cheer up the new owner’s bedroom. My advice to picking up bedding is to keep your eye out for really unique patterns. I’m interested to find some llama pillowcases, considering llamas are on everything from coffee mugs to landscape. These pillowcases were a lot of fun to sell.

Lately, I’ve been keeping my eye out for farmhouse items. From what I have observed, there is definitely a market for this category. I saw this galvanized metal letter holder for $2.99 on the bottom of a shelf. This is one of those pieces that I did not look up the price on. Sometimes, it makes sense to sell things that are just my style. I enjoy seeing animals and home decoration in my Poshmark Closet. This item was easy to photograph and added some rustic charm.
