Did I say how excited I was!!! I’m after @Ledbetterlittles. Hope the box loses some weight
So happy you are home, hope you are doing much better, was worried you wouldn’t be home to get your Reborn garage sale delivered right to your doorstep!
I had an appointmemt this afternoon, and although I can hardly walk right now- you bet your booty I went to my favorite spot to get boutique baby stuff I have a problem, lol, over $400 in stuff left with me.
Good thing the box will be here tomorrow!!! I have so many goodies
I can’t wait. Big box coming soon. Waiting to see what you get.
I just keep remembering things I was going to put in the box. I’m ready for round 2 of the newby box already. But I need it to arrive at 10 pounds so it can leave at 20 pounds. It’s hard when it already arrives ripping at the seams.
I am going to be up all night sorting through my stash, plus what I got today so that I am ready tomorrow!! I am going to have to participate in every box because there is no way I can fit even a portion of my stuff in there lol. Plus I have like 20 or so kits that I am on the fence about keeping so… Even if I only add one or two each time it will take me at least 10 rounds And I have a shopping addiction- baby stuff and reborn supplies and kits so I have endless supplies of everything.
I had intended to open a shop before my health decided to be less than accommodating, so I have a stockpile in my office.
Wow I have the bare minimum supplies. I did order something things for the box. I got my fingers crossed for a Bonnie brown kit . Just kidding! In a minute there will be two boxes moving for the newbie box
I know, now I feel bad! Isn’t this box just supposed to be trading things you have that you may just not be using? I don’t have THAT much stuff
Don’t feel bad! It can be either or both. No one is expected to buy anything for the box, but people can if they want to.
Before I hosted the box, when I first participated, I would order a kit, make the baby, buy clothing and accessories for that baby, and then sell it. Rinse and repeat. I didn’t have extra stuff. Now that I’ve been doing this for a while, I have kits that I bought that I never got around to, clothes that are precious but have been hanging in the closet for months, supplies that I never got around to using, etc. I don’t need to buy as much to participate. I still order extras of the things that I know are really popular or when I find a good deal, but that’s a choice, not a requirement. I also make crocheted blankets especially for the box because I enjoy making blankets, it’s easy for me, and people seem to like them.
I sincerely hope that no one feels obligated to buy things for the box. As long as the value going in equals the value coming out, I promise no one cares if you bought the items for the box or if you already had them.
Don’t feel bad. That’s what it’s aboit trading what you have. I had to purchase something’s as my supplies are limited
This is exactly what I do. Buy the kit, body, make the baby buy clothes specifically for that baby and then sell the baby. I haven’t gotten to the point where I have extra supplies
I’m like that too. I probably have only 10 kits total. Painting supplies I try to get extra when I can. @Nikkiroc came through for me bc she placed the purple in the box I never got around to purchasing. I loved participating bc there were so many items in there that were already on my buy list. I can’t wait to go again. Now every time I get for me I grab enough for box. @ashleyfox98 I definitely wanna be put on list again
If you have $20 worth of stuff to add, you’re good. There are things in there of all price ranges. You can find plenty for $20. Or you can do like I did and trade over $100 worth of your own stuff for over $100 worth of stuff in the box and still not make a dent.
I didnt mean to make anyone feel bad I only have the stuff I do because I planned to open a store and because my health got in the way of even painting. I have done nothing but shop for the last 6 months lol.
Seriously though, there is everything from toothpicks to high end kits and everything in between you can add. Extra cosmetic wedges, a handful of toothpicks, q-tips, water pipettes- all items you buy in bulk and can throw in a baggie to trade for another item. Those things will get chosen quickly because we all use those little helpers when painting lol. You can put some diapers in there, a onesie or two, a couple rooting needles… The possibilities are endless- What is cool is that we all use different brands of those little items, so it is fun to try them out!!
I am such a shut-in these days that I just am happy to have you ladies to interact with!! I enjoy sharing the fun little things I have found and also need to get rid of some of this stuff to make room to start painting!
I think I heard the mail man… Running, well hobbling lol, to the front door as we speak to check!!!
Fingers crossed!
Tracking says it’s on your front porch. Did you get it?
I did!!! HOLY COW!!! This bad boy seems endless, you ladies have been feeding it well No wonder it was so heavy- there are multiple kits and miss @Katinafleming added a Texas sized load!!
I don’t even know where to begin, the only things I even want to pass on are the things of mine that are already in there haha haha
I will post pics as soon as I decide which are keepers (right after I drag these kiddos back inside from swimming)
There’s so much in there already with your name on it. I certainly didn’t feel guilty hogging anything you put in. I knew you were next and would make up for any of your stuff I took.
I was so worried that there wouldn’t be enough for you to pick from since you added your items up front, I’m glad to hear that there’s plenty!
