I never thought about it before but blankets are a big nostalgia for people! Great video!!
Thanks! People will pay a pretty penny for them too!
I love the way you talk about your business, Good luck to you!
Thank you so much!
Its been awhile since I was here. I forgot how enjoyable you are to watch. Stay Safe my friend
Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you for the info. I'm a great fan of great blankets...
Me too! We personally have a ton!
I live near the national quilt museum so I've been trying to learn about blankets and quilts since I can get them so cheap. Thanks for the info! And you said Peoria! That's a few hours north of me
Wonderful!
First time watcher. Thanks for the info
No problem!! Love to share tips!
Very Educational video! I love how you keep it real in your videos (like when you mentioned the junk on your husband's dresser 😀).
all about the realness! or how many times can I touch my hair?
@@Thriftingismybeach lol
Very well done & informative! Excellent! Thank You!
Thank you! I appreciate it!
I used to sell vintage chenille fabric for a living. I’d buy damaged vintage chenille bedspreads and cut them up. I made pretty good money but it was so time consuming and took up so much space. I was thinking about picking up blankets up again but it’s just so hard to photograph and store.
I used to buy huge clear bags used for gift baskets to wrap my expensive chenille bedspreads in.
I sold on Etsy and eBay.
Yes, I hardly ever find chenille and storage space cam be an issue
I came across this video today- thats so much for the info. I'll check the blankets & linens from now on. Thats one area I don't know much about!
np! It's an area at the thrift that is usually overlooked by resellers . My favorite are baby blankets. I pick up the modern ones too.
A very interesting video, I really enjoyed it and I'm always looking for items that may not be an mainstream. Thank You!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video! I follow you on Instagram and you are killing it! Vintage linens are my weakness. Blankets, sheets, towels, love it all. Modern brands I keep an eye out for are PB & Shabby Chic even some ikea pieces can do well.
Never heard of Shabby Chic! Thanks for watching!
Went to a Yardsale yesterday and the sweet man’s wife had passed several months ago. He was selling all the blankets she had collected to give away at showers over the years. I saw one with ducks and grabbed it. I found your video. Now I’m wondering if I should go back and buy the rest of the table!! 🤦🏼♀️
Blankets have sentimental feelings to them with certain styles and patterns.
I have kind of stayed away from blankets in the past because the thought of trying to photograph them has been overwhelming. However, the tips you provided make it so much less complicated.
It's quite simple!
My husband’s junk never goes away either😂
It's just part of marraige
I thought of you yesterday when I picked up a blanket with cheesey writing to "Mother". Is it similar to clothing, where the fact that it's made in USA means it is more likely it is vintage? it has a sticker on it that says made in USA, hard to read the brand, loam craft maybe. Looks vintage but I'm surprised that a sticker would have managed to stay attached if it is really old.
Yes but not always. Paper tags are indicator of o0s or earlier. Ive fou d 70s blabkets still sealed in plastic.
I wonder if handknit blankets would do similarly well
Unless they are vintage with a unique pattern or colorway, I leave them. I do pickup vtg ones if they have the 3d flower.
Hey and I was considering blankets on Etsy, too. Is this a profitable business for you? Please advice. Thanks.
yes. It took my about 6 months to learn but do some research and learn good style terms and keywords
Question - do you wash all the blankets? Steam? I found a RL comforter recently and the cleaners charge $20+ or laundromat large capacity washer and dryer is just under $10 to use.
I only was if quite dirty or if theres an odor. You can sanitize by steaming but I dont. The waffle weave blankets have a delicate knit so I do not wash those.
I like to polymailers too. But my question is is it better after you put in a polymailers to stuff it in a flat rate box? Want to be cheaper to send it out that way then trying to send it out priority? Or what way do you send it if just using a poly mailer?
I always conpare price to UPS-if its 4 lbs or more -UPS grou d is way cheapee via pirateship.com
What size poly mailers do you recommend and do you have affiliate links for them?
directly from Ebay shipping supplies store : no link
14.5" x 18.5" Polymailer (No padding) - Black Logo
