What I found (again)

I've been in and out of town the past few weeks so haven't been great about hunting, picture taking, listing, or blog posting.  It happens. :)  Still, I've managed to find a few share worthy items out and about.

Three Large Spools of Thread
100% Irish Wool Shirt Dress
Indiana Glass Co, Chip and Dip Bowl Set
Alaskan Clay Moose Mug
All the above items have found their way into my Etsy shop (with the exception of the moose mug which is housed in my new vintage shop for men....more on that later.)  I'm trying to get better about listing items as I find them....but lets be honest, what I'm not sharing is the massive backlog of inventory.  for every 1 item that gets listed there are another 15 that get stashed out of site...moved into the "i'll deal with you later" pile.    


How do you manage inventory?  Do you list an item as soon as you get home?

    1. Thanks John. I try to list new items each day also. The problem is I find new items, and get so excited about the new stuff....that I forget about all the others. :)

  5. i'm visiting via Apron Thrift Girl; great blog. i love that irish wool dress. i'm just taking first steps to becoming a reseller so i'm fascinated to read about others' experiences. a repeated theme is the backlog of inventory issue - guess i'd better create some significant space!

  6. Thanks for stopping by! It turns out (for me at least) the hunt is WAY more fun then the cleaning, researching, photographing and listing. It's a bit of an addiction. :)

  7. Yes, I know about the backlog. If I'm really excited about something though, I list it right away.

    1. Angela- you are so sweet.
      I haven't been blogging that long so I'm pretty stoked you found me at all. :)

      And total side bar, I thought of you the other day. My husband made me a nutella cake for my birthday. You would have hated it. :)
