There are many ways to participate in the consignment, resale and thrift industry. Here’s one that might intrigue you:
Rust&Found
in Canal Fulton OH. Rust&Found has a storefront… that is open for one 3-day weekend a month… the rest of the time is finding things to sell, prepping them, even re-inventing them. (Take a look at her Before & Afters!)
Looks like a great way to be a junkin’ fool… and have the shop support your habit! I so admire industry peers like this: re-purposing, saving useful things, and
showing the public how wonderful recycling can be!

That is pretty awesome. I love this blog and all the ideas that come from it.

What a fantastic idea!! I recently rented a small storefront that I was going to use as my studio to work on old furniture and decor. Wow! This is an answer to my predicament of how to be four places at once!

I can see it now! “Behind the scenes at Periwinkle: A Once a Month Opportunity to see how we make Old New Again, sip wine, and Get Inspired!” (And your best employees will be vying for the honor of working it!) (And local paint stores, hardware stores, craft stores, etc, could sponsor drawings for door prizes of dresser knobs, paint and accessories, a collection of rubber stamps to decorate furniture…)
