How I'm up-leveling my reseller business this year part 2

In part two I will be talking about the things that you don't need when you are first starting out but things that will ultimately make a good investment into your reselling business.

1. Dress Form

A Dress form is not a necessity but it does create a nice aesthetic if you are selling clothing.

2. Clothing garment rack

A clothing garment rack is a great tool to use for storage as well as to hang your items for steaming and/or before listing them and putting the clothing item in plastic boxes for storage.

3. A thermal printer with printing paper and storage

Eventually I plan on investing in this ROLLO Thermal printer. I know not having to constantly having to buy ink will be so much better. Especially if you ship out many items. Ink can get costly.

4. Photo light Box

This is great for hard good items as well as clothing. I know I've suffered with bad lighting or not enough lighting when taking pictures. I love the ones you can set on a table instead of the tall ones.

5. Steamer

A steamer is not something you need right away in your selling journey. But, it is something you will eventually need. Especially when you want to present your clothes in the best light for pictures and shipping the item to its new home.

How I am up-leveling my reseller business this year Part 1: Things you need to start reselling

First, I'll start with the tools I use and always keep on hand. Tools that you will need if you are planning on starting or re-starting a reseller business. 

1. A Measuring tape

I prefer to use a retractable tape measure that is usually used for sewing. I love this tape measure and it has helped me tremendously over the time I've been reselling. I use one from the Singer sewing brand. 

2. Storage Boxes

Eventually you will build up inventory and you will need a place to store it. This is true if you are doing just clothing, hard goods, or both. I recommend investing in tubs early on. 

3. A sweater shaver

This is also a must when starting out. Especially when I was going through my clothing I noticed a lot of pilling on some items. Also, make sure if items are pilled that you list this in the description of the item. 

4. A printer and ink cartridge

You will need this for printing especially if you are selling on places like Poshmark and Mercari that you print the labels directly from the site/email when you get an order. On these sites there is no other way to do it. With eBay and Etsy you can handwrite the buyers address but I feel like printing shipping labels is much less time consuming and then you already have the shipping paid for when you go to the post office.  

5. Sticker paper

This is not necessary but it is a tool I don't want to be without. It is so much easier to print up inventory labels on sticker paper and to print up packing labels on sticker paper. 

6. Poly bags

These are clear plastic bags that are great for storing inventory. Every time after I list my items I stick them in a bag and label them with an inventory number. Especially if you are reselling clothing this is a must for keeping track of inventory and helps to cut down on space in the bins. 

7. Poly mailer bags 

These are bags with designs that you can buy off amazon and eBay. I love to use these to ship my first class items. If someone buys more then one item then I will usually pack it in a box unless it can still fit in a poly mailer bag. 

I went thrifting! What did I find? #3

I found these 1970's vintage Hummel plates. They are Christmas plates but I decided to go ahead and list them now. Has anyone heard of Christmas in July? I love the idea of celebrating Christmas twice a year. 

I am obsessed with this Peanuts Woodstock tank top

I love the tassels on this LC Lauren Conrad top

This is a basic Torrid Tank but I adore the burgundy wine color

One of three Knox Rose pieces I picked up. I've been obsessed with Knox Rose and it has been a bread and butter brand for me lately. 

I picked this tank top up because it is Harley Davidson. The graphic is worn so that was disappointing but on name alone I'm hoping to sell this. Otherwise, I will probably just keep it for myself if it doesn't sell. 

My second Knox Rose Tank top. The third one already sold. I think this is a great piece for summer. 

What are you currently thrifting? Do you go to garage sales in the summer? 

See something you just can't live without?

I love this Mackenzie Childs bouquet for a table centerpiece especially with the pink and purple colors

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        I love these Anthropologie candles or if you are looking for something a little safer the flameless LED candles are pretty nifty too.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

I love these purple wedged shoes

I love this clear card box I was thinking of something like this or a birdcage for cards

I ended up doing virtual invitations which I loved from Green envelope but I also love Shutterfly for physical wedding invitations

I love this dress for a bridesmaid dress. It is very similar to the one my friend and future sister in law is wearing for my wedding.

Since my wedding is coming up in June I decided to take a look at Amazon and see what was available. They have so many gorgeous things for a wedding. Here are a few of my favorite pics. 

I love this Dusty rose pink tablecloth that cascades. It is perfect for a blush pink wedding. 

These rustic table number holders are adorable. 

I love this lace tablecloth. 

These Battery operated tea lights make a great table setting 

I love a canopy like this either on a trellis or hung from a tree 

I got a very similar guestbook and I can't wait to use if for my wedding. It makes a great keepsake.
