The only thing better than saving money is making money! Selling your old stuff is a fun and easy way to make some extra cash! My friend Emerald and I decided to throw a picture perfect yard sale to clean out our closets and replenish our bank accounts.
The key to any good yard sale is obviously customers. And how do you get customers? Publicity!
We made adorable flyers printed on color paper and put them all around the neighborhood. Placing an ad on craigslist is also a free way to draw in a lot of customers! Feel free to use this JPEG to make your own flyers!
We also made a larger sign with cut out letters for the actual sale!

We used tables and blankets to display our "merchandise." Emerald also had a clothing rack that was perfect for hanging our favorite items!
A Tip: People will buy your miscellaneous things you think no one will ever want! Put them out to sell and see what happens! Worse comes to worse no one buys it, but it can't hurt to try!
We drove all the things we didn't sell over to Goodwill at the end of the day. Donate useful things instead of just throwing them away (unless it really is trash, in which case, toss it)!
Yard sales are fun and easy! Grab a friend, make some flyers, and throw the cutest yard sale you can!
Remember crafters, be crazy!
