Flippin' Free Bird After some health struggles my art took a hit due to some issues with my back and left arm. That has led me down another path.

Please enjoy watching my thrifting and antiquing journey. This is something my whole family enjoys with me and it brings peace.

Turns out ‘family business’ is crouching on tile floors helping your kid photograph his thrifted history for an assisted living presentation. Honestly? I'm a proud mom.

Bentley was actually fascinated learning the difference between real leather and “fleather” and yes, I made that word up, but honestly it works.

One of the things I truly love about being a stay-at-home mom while also running businesses from home is that it gives me the opportunity to teach my kids through real-life experiences. Everyday moments become lessons about quality, value, hard work, creativity, and adaptation.

Could I file for disability and collect a check? Probably. And I say that without judgment toward anyone who needs that support. But for me personally, I feel there are people who need those resources more than I do. So instead, I’ve learned to adapt around my health and my body’s limitations by finding ways to create income that fit my abilities.

I hope what my husband and I are teaching our kids goes beyond just making money. I hope they see resilience. I hope they learn that when life changes, you adapt instead of giving up. I hope they understand the value of hustle, problem-solving, and building something with your own hands.

By including them in this journey, I’m hoping they grow up knowing that setbacks don’t have to define you — how you respond to them does.

My favorite find so far this weekend! I found this at an estate sale.... Probably surrounded by a whole bunch of million dollar items BUT I couldn't look away from this guy. He's magical! He doesn't fit in with my decor but I just know someone has to grab him up and will love him like I do. He gave me boy vibes, don't ask!

Check him out!!!

My top finds of the weekend weren't big extravagant and expensive. They were these handmade ornaments I found at an estate sale.

We do leave the cat at home although I'm sure he would enjoy treasure hunting too! 🤣

People think reselling is just posting stuff online, but half the battle is cleaning, testing, researching, and trying to figure out why someone glued googly eyes to a ceramic duck in 1994. Okay, I didn't really buy that..... But I did see one at a garage sale Saturday!

Today’s project: bringing my pile of chaos piece back to life before listing it.

I wouldn't say I blacked out this weekend, but it was close ;)

Store is as full as my car was! 🤣🤣

Weekend haul dump because I've learned one yard sale and one thrift store is just not enough!

Found everything from vintage decor to “what is this, I love it?” energy.

Which item would YOU have grabbed first?

(My car was full, and so is my online store)

The treasure hunt is the fun part. Navigating algorithms, technical issues, verbiage and all the different hoops selling online hands out is a whole new ball game.

I'm slowly getting used to it but it's taking me time. I'd rather be out hunting for all the fun stuff. For now, I'm in a constant learning curve, and I know that my drive and perseverance to do the right thing for my family always wins out.

Thank you all for being along for the ride! ❤️

Some of my recent finds are in the photos alongside 200 others.
