*sorry about the video quality! my camera was being weird and I didn't notice until I started editing :( *

hey guys! in this video i'm sharing the full story of how i built my Depop shop, the vintage edit, from literally nothing. After graduating with a marketing degree and spending months trying to find a job, I started selling clothes from my closet just to make some money and it slowly turned into a real business.

i'm covering everything: how i started, my thrifting strategy, how i rebranded, the money breakdown, and even taking you to my storage unit headquarters!

if you're a recent grad, someone looking for an extra income stream, or just curious about starting a depop shop this one's for you! 🤍

Blessed by your testimony and by you sharing your natural born "entrepreneurial girlie" journey with us!!! I'm in the process of opening my online store and will share once it's up and running...I'm more encouraged to take that leap of faith now...Thanks!!!😃

I literally just asked God like why.. I’m 23 and I feel behind like everyone kept declining my applications but God told me to just post a few items I don’t wear on Depop, then I sold something after 5 days, then another sale the same day I posted some boots so now I’m seeing this video as confirmation as something I am going to start thank you for sharing ❤❤❤ God bless you ❤

You have blessed me so much today by sharing your wisdom and knowledge on reselling. Most of all, your faith and conviction that God has led you through it all. New subscriber! 🙏🏽

hearing you built your brand in a similar fashion as i have (tho mine began more as just a clothing upcycle brand) but seeing you now with your cute unit setup is perfect for my vision board! i love that you showed that part; thanks for letting us see the parts others never share! 🎀💖🌸

It is really impressive the work you put in what started as a side business! I would love to see more of this, you locked me in your channel with the ChatGPT video and I keep getting more and more impressed with your skills, you are amazing girl!

Thank you for your informative videos! I am a single mom struggling to make ends meet and looking for a side hussle. I’m going to give a try and hope I get some sale 🤞🤞

Thank you for sharing your journey! I’m just starting out on depop, currently focusing on cleaning out my closet. But one day would love to begin reselling too :)

Hi! Does your spread sheet only work with de pop or other apps like vinted ?

I started my Paisley Room store 3 weeks ago and I'm having a blast!! My daughter kept encouraging me to sell online to help me go through my home and purge. I'm decluttering and making some money at the same time. I absolutely love your channel! Thanks for sharing your beautiful knowledge and heart!! I'm a grandma times 5 and love doing this in my new season of life. What are your thoughts on Vinted? I've had 9 sales my first 3 days. I'm at 36 items sold my first 3 weeks on 3 platforms and I'm seeing so much potential. Blessings sweet girl!
