Opening Day was a quiet, snowy day. It was a perfect day to adjust to my new surroundings. We didn’t have shoppers, but so many of my friends and family stopped by, called and emailed to wish me well. Thank you!
Most days start with me
freshening up the boutique. Vacuuming or
mopping when needed, dusting…you know the drill. Then I begin pricing and putting out new inventory,
answering emails and generally getting ready for the day.
At 10:00 sharp I flip my
sign and wait. When the first friendly
face comes into my shop I go to work.
Some shoppers really want their space others want me to show them items
that are made “just for them”. It’s fun
to watch and see what type of shopper I have.
Others just come in to talk. One
friend said I should start a book, “Confessions of the Consignment
Shopper”. I feel a little like a
bartender standing at my glass case listening to the woes and joys of my
shoppers.
