My Closets Are Overflowing
My mom had a very hard time getting rid of things she might "NEED SOME DAY". I swear I'm not the same. As I'm selecting items to sell in my shop, I keep reminding my family that saving and storing treasures is now paying off.
The kids are grown and pretty much living out of my house. Some day they will take all of their STUFF that I'm still storing for them. Just think of all the room I will have to get my ETSY items organized THEN. Garage sales, estate sales, thrift stores, auctions "call my name". My husband and I enjoy the adventure of seeking out items to purchase. I really enjoy the researching and listing.
I live in Iowa, but my heart and soul long to be in Captiva FL in the COLD winter months. So my profits are earmarked for our warmer climate getaway funds. I have to admit the first few snowfalls, each year, are beautiful… especially if I'm INSIDE with a blanket and a cup of coffee. I much prefer searching for MORE seashells with my granddaughter!!!
