Flea Market Success!

My goal is to make $1000 for our mini trip to Gatlinburg, TN for the 4th of July! So far I have made $705!!! Yay!
What the best thing about this is, I'm decluttering my house! I still have some more to do to!

Here is some of the items I bought Saturday at some yard sales and resold on Sunday at the flea market! 

Kathy Van Zeeland pocket books  sold for $20.00 each!!! I paid $2.00 a piece for them!
 Vera Bradley sold for $15.00! I paid $2!
This one sold for $10! I paid $2!
The pink and black Nike shox sold for $20.00 and the black and silver pair sold for $15.00! I paid $5.00 each!
So, I paid $18.00 for everything and made a profit of $82.00!
Cha Ching!
Here's a couple of pictures after most of my good stuff was already sold! My camera went dead too. I couldn't even get my stuff out of the boxes, people was already digging in them.


I still have some more stuff to go through in my house and I think I can reach my goal pretty easy!

I hope everyone has a great Tuesday!!!

Warning! I cant spell ladies, so please pay no attention to that! In school all I cared about was big hair, boys and colorguard! ha!

Junkalicious!

Here's my goodies I brought back with me from Hillsville! 
I finally got me a locker basket! It's a bit rusty though. It's okay it was only $4.00!!
  I also got this cool "P"! It's a part of a sign! It was $10.00. I think I might use it as a part of my son's room decor.
 Cute little Barn birdhouse for $5.00!
 I got these rooster candle holders for $10.00 at the flea market last week. I LOVE them!
And finally, the best for last! I got this awesome Kathy Van Zealand pocket book for $5.00!!! Yeah! I was in total shock!
I hope everyone had a great weekend and I hope you found you some awesome treasures!
I'm selling tomorrow at the flea market! Wish me luck to make lots of money!

Hillsville, VA Here I come!

What a fun little trip! Here's is some pics of my trip!
Here's the box ready to go!
5:12 am and I'm ready to hit the road!
Finally, made it to Virgina!
 I'm here!!! I parked my car in someone's yard!
Let's get to shopping! 
 One of my favorite vendors! He had all kind of neat stuff! This is where I bought my locker basket!
This was my dad's booth!
He makes these crazy birdhouses and sells the slew out of them!
  Field slam full of junkness goodies!
Here's my other favorite vendor! Lots of really neat stuff!
 You just never know what you are going to find at a flea market!
There is one thing I learned, the Memorial Day sale is nothing compared to the Labor Day sale! There wasn't as many vendors or people at this one! Still had lots of fun though! 400,000+ people come to the Labor Day sale! I can't wait till then! I'll have my goodies posted in another post! 
Stayed tuned!

Houston, we have a FLOOR!

I have been working on this hot mess of a closet today! I could not see the floor it was that bad! I had amazon boxes galore from Christmas time, clothes I had forgot about (like 4 black tank tops!), even found some new drawers! ha! I forgot to take a before picture, but here's the floor! Finally!

Here's the crap that came off the floor! 
I also have a pretty good collection of shopping bags! I keep all the good ones for when I go to resell stuff! Weird, huh?! I want them to feel special when they carry there new goodies in a nice bag!
  I promise I'm not a crazy hoarder person! 
I still have to go through my clothes now. Who needs 20 pairs of jeans when only 4 fit?! I also need new hangers bad! I will update when I finished! This sista needs to make some money! Vacation is coming up soon! ;)

Do you collect bags too?!  Or am I crazy?!
