My New Adventure at the Town Peddler

If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you’ve probably noticed all the nervous updates on my latest adventure. I signed a 6 month contract with a local antique and craft mall to fill a booth with my upcycled, vintage and handmade items.

Purchase with a Purpose

I LOVE having a reason to create stuff. Part of it is just a fun, creative outlet for me. On top of that, all money that I make through this booth will go into our adoption fund.

I’m not much of a risk taker, so this was a pretty big deal for me! I’ve always dreamed of owning my own shop one day, but thought this was a better opportunity for me to get a taste of shop life, without all the extra financial burden and time constraints. At the Town Peddler, I can set up my booth and walk away. They do the rest!

I am still getting a hang of the pricing thing. I don’t want to price things too high, but I can’t go so low that I barely break even. I want people to walk away with things they love, at a price they can be excited about. I pay rent every month on the booth and a small percentage comes out of my earnings, so I’m just a tad anxious about how this will turn out.

If you’re in the metro Detroit area, I’d love for you to stop by!
The Town Peddler is such a fun place to shop!

What you can expect to find at my booth:

  • Handmade burlap wreathes
  • Handmade seasonal wreathes
  • Original artwork
  • Barnwood and rustic hand painted signs
  • Seasonal decor
  • Vintage items
  • Old ladders
  • Some handmade clothing and “Live with Purpose” shirts left over from my online store
  • Painted and upcyceld furniture

    I loved this post and I forwarded it to our local BCS office where I have done some volunteering. Also with regard to your booth, I hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine in a venue that sounds exactly like yours. You are far more creative and productive than me, however. Praying that both ventures are successful!!
