That estate sale in Fresno where grandma's crafts went for $2 each
Went to an estate sale off Shields Ave last Saturday and someone had priced all the cross stitch kits and yarn at $2 a piece. I grabbed 14 skeins of vintage wool that still had the original labels from the 70s. Put them on eBay when I got home and two already sold for $18 each. Anyone else finding that old lady craft supplies are secretly the best flip in the whole game?

The part about "grandma's crafts" being priced at $2 is exactly the thing I keep noticing everywhere. People look at old yarn, fabric, or half-finished embroidery kits and just see clutter, but that stuff is pure gold to the right buyer. It's like there's this whole blind spot for anything "crafty" because it feels too homey or outdated, yet vintage supplies are thriving online. I've seen it with sewing patterns too, a whole box for a buck at one sale, then they flip for five or six each. Honestly, it makes me wonder what other everyday stuff we're all walking right past.
