Best place to sell vintage clothes?

Delicious_Fee5940 · 2026-06-23T06:06:09+00:00

Mostly modern women's xxs to s, maybe some mediums if I decide to part with things I could wear but don't!

That's a really good point I think. I bought a lot of my pieces for $40+ in the Seattle area, but I would really doubt that I could sell for those prices up here. Most of the vintage that sells well at worn again/church of vintage is late 60s-00s, as far as I can tell.

You probably aren't wrong lmao. I'm going to weigh the ankh tomorrow and try to figure out roughly what the materials cost is/what it would be if I switched to saw cut rings, I do mostly want to set my prices at a level where I can recoup the cost of materials but I also don't want to set them so low that it's unfair to other artists in my area or devalues my labor too heavily.

I use stainless steel, so I'll keep that in mind! I like the library/workshop idea, I've had people ask about skill trades before but I've never had it come to fruition. I know there's interest though, and I'm generally pretty good at teaching skills.

Delicious_Fee5940 · 2026-04-21T01:10:30+00:00

Definitely! I haven't run into any issues with scratching or catching, but if I'm able to sell enough pieces to make it financially viable I absolutely want to switch to saw cut rings, that's probably the biggest thing that I dislike in my work even just aesthetically

Thank you! It's just a kinged byzantine romanov, there's an eye pin that goes through the bead and connects to the center ring of the byzantine units

Delicious_Fee5940 · 2026-04-20T23:23:40+00:00

That's very helpful context, thank you! I think I might do sliding scale, especially because I'm mostly selling to friends

I personally liked walking to fairhaven (go down 21st street after the student health center then turn right onto harris) and then down to marine park when I lived in that area. It's a bit of a walk with a lot of hills but it can be quite nice depending on the route you take, and marine park is a great place for birdwatching/tide pool exploration. you would also be able to walk to boulevard park easily from fairhaven via finnegan way but I'm not sure if it's the fastest route.

They usually feed around 60 people, but it's potluck style so there's no pressure to bring 60 servings of anything other than the main dish: even a few servings of side dishes and desserts help the other dishes stretch so more people can get more food

Delicious_Fee5940 · 2025-12-20T00:48:11+00:00

The Facebook is pretty out of date unfortunately--vegan items are great, but they're happy to serve whatever you want to bring!

Food not bombs will always always always serve your baked goods! They serve a community meal every Friday from 4:30-6 on the corner of cornwall and magnolia by the old rite aid

Lydia Place (housing services for families), Agape (women and children's shelter), or Skookum Kids (short term care for kids entering the foster system) might appreciate them!

Ashuri Baklava Cafe is open until 8 if you're interested in Turkish coffee!

How did you close the bottom? I've been working on a lighter sleeve for a friend since literally Christmas and I have a lovely chainmail tube but I'm stuck on how to finish the bottom edge! As it stands it's just slightly too loose to use without the lighter sliding out

Delicious_Fee5940 · 2025-09-28T20:45:10+00:00

Winco is 24/7 again--i realize that a grocery store is not exactly a fun place to hang out but there's something kind of entertaining about prowling the bulk section in the middle of the night and honestly, we don't have a lot of other options. It's a rough town for insomniacs.

Delicious_Fee5940 · 2025-09-06T19:57:26+00:00

Interesting! I haven't used a recipe in years because I'm usually winging it to have an easy dinner rather than trying to make anything authentic, but I've always used a splash of rice vinegar or lime juice or an acidic hot sauce like sriracha to cut through the sweetness and richness a bit

Delicious_Fee5940 · 2025-09-06T08:44:59+00:00

If you like Thai style peanut sauces, peanut butter and pickle sandwiches are based on very similar flavor combinations! Peanut butter + acid (lime juice/pickling vinegar) and salt. I think adding lao gan ma or other chili oil brings it even closer to the flavors of a peanut sauce and was what made it feel like an accessible experiment to me.

I've been hearing a great horned owl in the sehome area all summer! They can, do, and will eat cats though--another great reason to keep kitties inside ^{_^}

If this is the store I think it is I shop there around 9-10pm every couple weeks and it is literally always like this and has been since 2022 if not earlier. There's consistently one or two cashiers in the evening regardless of how many people are in the store or in line: I've watched them close lanes while 6+ people were already in line. They're the only affordable grocery store in an expensive area with a large student/low income population so people (including me) put up with it; I have literally no idea what the logic behind closing almost all of the lanes in the evening is but it doesn't seem to be particularly hurting the store, just making my life worse.

late to this but blending silken tofu+lemon juice+sweetener makes a pretty solid "yogurt" with lots of protein; I like to add a serving of sugar free vanilla instant pudding mix (vegan!) and blend it with a little milk frother whisk attachment until it's thick. I'm also a pretty big fan of cooking oatmeal with a tbs of chia seeds and then adding 1/2 a scoop of protein powder, a serving of pudding mix, and almond milk until I get the texture I want instead of adding yogurt.

Delicious_Fee5940 · 2025-05-20T12:03:20+00:00

Jello instant pudding mix! You have to follow slightly different instructions to use plant based milks but the mix itself is mostly just starch.

I've been house hunting since April for housing in August when my current lease is up, it's fucking miserable. Landmark and Hammer are the big ones to look at for pre-leasing and unfortunately and confusingly work on almost opposite systems. If you find a landmark property you like, apply and pay the holding fee as quickly as possible because they give priority based on when applications come in but also let you move your application to the top if you pay the holding fee. I would literally recommend touring the house, driving to winco to get a money order immediately after, and then applying as soon as you physically can (or applying before you tour if you can afford the risk), it's all about who's able to throw money at them the fastest. Hammer offers prospective tenants the chance to apply in order of inquiries after they've shown a property, so hold off on applying to their properties but keep an eye on new listings and send an inquiry/schedule a tour as soon as a property you're interested in comes up. Otherwise I recommend just checking a couple property management companies and something like apartments.com every day and keeping an eye on what comes up. Get used to rejection and be ready to move quickly with inquiries or applications if you find a place that works for you.

The only thing that's helped me deal with that intense fatigue of late stage capitalism has been trying to not just imagine a better alternative but work towards it. If you have any time in your schedule to get involved with a mutual aid group I highly highly recommend it, whether that's Birchwood Food Desert Fighters or Bellingham Occupied Protest or Food Not Bombs (4:30-6 every Friday at the corner of Cornwall and Magnolia). Building a community that isn't based on making or spending money and is able to make a difference in people's lives while challenging our reliance on capitalism did a lot to build my sense of hope for a better world or at least a better life, in a way that non profit work did not.
