50: More Consignment Fun


Steal of the day: Rothschild coat. Retail $160. Nana paid: $10

My earnings were significantly higher than the $1.50 I made at the Spring Yard sale. I even had profits after buying the mound of clothes in the photo above.

I went shopping at the consignment sale last night....I found great stuff for Jackson and Claire! Everything I purchased looks brand new. Very excited about my deals!! Of course, there were more girl things to choose from than boy, but that is nothing I am not used to. I kind of like the challenge of finding cute things for Jackson to wear that do not have skulls, crossbones, peace signs, etc. on them. Anybody else have a hard time finding cute things for your toddler/preschool boy? If not, where are some good places to look without breaking the bank?

43: Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow


For the last couple of weeks, Blake has been bringing totes and totes of Jackson's baby clothes out of the attic. So far, I have sorted through at least 7 of them, trying to make some space up in the attic. I don't know if we will have another little one or not, so I am not ready to part with all of it, but I know I probably need to let go of some of it. I am consigning about half of what I have went through, and putting all of my very favorite clothes back into the attic. I feel bad that all of those clothes are sitting in the attic, when a baby somewhere could be wearing them. I have never consigned before, but I am hoping that it will be more successful than our Spring Yard Sale.
