Stuff we need that we’d rather not pay for

leave a comment »

As we get more things to sell we’re starting to notice we don’t necessarily have the right stuff to sell them from. We can get tables fairly easily but more specialist stuff is quite expensive, unless you happen to know someone who has one out back gathering dust.

So here’s the wish list, as of March 25th. We’re not too worried about condition and can collect if needbe.

Greetings cards display unit – Any style. We’re selling a lot of cards so they really need their own section. I’d like something on the wall but a unit for a table or a spinner would be just as great.

Shop dummies / mannequins – things to display clothes on, basically. We’ll try anything.

Glass Display Cabinet – For the fragile stuff. It doesn’t have to be lockable.

Jewellery display cases – I’m going to put out another call for someone to help us merchandise the jewellery properly but in the meanwhile some specialist cases would be great.

Book stands or things that can be used as book stands. Or failing that a template to make them out of cardboard.

Bookshelves – any size will do.

Print browser – v-shaped rack for resting large prints in.

Magazine rack – We’re getting lots of zines and books without hefty spines. Something for them.

If you can help, drop an email to createdinbirmingham@gmail.com or @ us on Twitter.
