So Much Cuteness, So Little Time!


Hey readers!

I've been a busy little bee lately at Little Tyke's Closet!

I am taking advantage of an eBay promotion for three free months of a store!
I'm busy adding items to my store right now so stop by and see what I have available! Right now I'm focusing on adding girls clothing and accessories, but rest assured all the little boy cuteness I have will make it's way there as well!

In other news you may or may not have heard that GYMBOREE IS CLOSING 350 OF THEIR STORES!!!! This is includes their ENTIRE FAMILY OF STORES (JANIE & JACK, CRAZY 8 and GYMBOREE) across the country so if you like their current lines you should stock up as soon as you can! Closings can happen any time with no warning! What does this mean for resale? Well, if this is anything like the Naartjie craze, it means that things will probably jump up in value since the chance of getting it will be slimmer with the closings. So I am very happy that I gambled and stocked up my inventory of vintage and some current lines. I currently have around 20+ BINS FULL OF CLOTHES!

That said, my goal is to make my customers happy so if you love a line and need pieces to it OR recently fell into the gymbo craze, check out my facebook page or shop my store 

Until next time!

Shopping Addiction or Sourcing Inventory

I have been a busy little bee adding to my inventory and then prepping the items for sale on my selling page and participating in auctions! In order to have a successful resale business in a small town, I have to focus much of my advertising and "sharing" towards social media and then ship the cuteness all over the world. Thus far, this plan has been very successful... It has taken me many false starts and stops and hiatuses but I am finally in a great groove and I am carrying that momentum forward hopefully to my eventual dream... A brick and mortar store! That dream is a ways down the road as the market isn't great in my area for consignment, it's just too small of a town. 

That brings me to another issue.. Finding great items at a reasonable price to "flip" on my page. So far my go to places haven't steered me wrong but I am hoping the well doesn't dry up or I will have a hard time finding a new source.


Anyway, right now I am on a Vintage Gymboree kick! The quality of the clothing pre 2010 were just exquisite. Recently I was lucky enough to come across an incredible amount of vintage Gymboree that was NEW! I am excited to prep it all and get it posted... Go check out my page and LIKE IT! Oh and tell your friends... Just a few of the adorable pieces I have available


























UNTIL NEXT TIME!

WELCOME TO LITTLE TYKE'S CLOSET


Welcome! 

I decided to start an online resale shop to help Moms and Dads find AFFORDABLE and ADORABLE baby and children's clothing and small toys and accessories. Why you ask? The answer is simple. I am always searching for a bargain to dress my sweet baby boys. They came to us through the miracle of gestational surrogacy and that in and of itself is an EXPENSIVE journey! After many tries we finally realized our dream and we were blessed with our little boys in November 2012 and August 2014! Well after all the focus of trying to have a baby, you realize - - - you have to clothe and accessorize now, ACK! 

I searched my area for clothes and some times I would find great things but majority of the time I would strike out OR things would be outrageously priced! I did some searching online and a few of the places I found focused more on "Boutique" or "High End" brands. I LOVE a lot of the high end brands, but I truly believe there is a market for the "everyday" brands as well and that's where I come in! I want to offer a wide variety of the BEST OF BOTH WORLDS! 

I have met so many wonderful people on my journey to our miracle and this has allowed me to have access to TONS of great items for boys and girls! I have launched my webstore and have a small selection of clothing up and I am currently working on getting some accessories added as well. You will find loads of vintage and current GYMBOREE, BABY GAP, GAP KIDS, THE CHILDRENS PLACE, CRAZY 8 and so much more!

 I am also going to feature some handmade accessories from some very talented girls! Thank you for stopping by and please come back and visit us soon for updates, sales and sneak peeks of new items! Don't forget to LIKE US ON FACEBOOK and follow us on INSTAGRAM
