Coming Along!

This weekend we went to a birthday party where I personally met Princess Fiona. We exchanged numbers because she was interested in working with a business owner to do story time during weekdays or even a simple music and movement class for little kids. My girls are still begging to have her number, but I explained that would be like calling the tooth fairy or Santa Claus. It just doesn't happen for them. :)

Anyway, I think that would be exciting to do some Story Time at least once a month. Something to do a little different, bring in some customers and also get her some weekend work. I hear she knows all the cool Princesses and Fairies...

In other news, I have to get some links to USA Today, NBC & the Union Tribune up here because they have all had big recent articles about Resale getting to be big again. I'll get to that in my "spare time".

I placed my Diapees and Wipees order today and got that situated. Still been doing inventory and buying but I think I am going to take a break on buying anything until my inventory is finished because it looks like I am getting pretty close to having a decent amount to open of resale items. All great brands like I had hoped for. My Melissa and Doug order arrived yesterday and my tags and See Kai Run shoes should arrive today.

As for other new inventory, I contacted the owner of an awesome website www.shopjuicebox.com and I'll be ordering some new merchandise from her. With my budget I cannot afford to buy a whole order from companies like Splendid or Tea. So I thought I would contact a web site that I liked the style of and see if she had any overstock items or out of season and if so, I could purchase clothing here and there without spending thousands of dollars I don't have. So look forward to seeing more than the occasional "new with tags" items. There will also be whole orders of new boutique clothing items. I have one other web site and one local boutique I want to contact after the store opens if the new items sell.

One day at a time, things are coming along.
