Event Details

Got Stuff? Yeah, we all do. So, we're coordinating a Houston SwapTweet + Yard Sale to help you exchange some of that excess stuff into *really* usable treasure!

Bring your stuff to Caroline Collective on July 11 to...

  • Swap it for stuff you really want/need
  • Sell it for cash to keep or donate to a local charity
  • Donate it directly to a deserving charity

The Furniture Bank of Houston (http://www.fb-houston.org) will be the beneficiary of any unswapped/unsold furniture. We're seeking another local charity/charities to receive clothing and miscellaneous items - if you know of one that would appreciate gently used items, please contact @gracerodriguez.

BAKERS: Feel free to bring goodies to raise money for your favorite charity...even if it's yourself!)

How it works:

  1. Sign up to be a Swapper/Seller and/or Baker (Browser/Buyers can simply RSVP)
  2. You'll receive an email with detail on table space and set-up time
  3. Hunt for & gather the treasures you no longer want
  4. Bring them to Caroline Collective on July 11 - don't forget to bring change for buyers!
  5. Early morning: Sell!
  6. Lunchtime: Swap! (&Sell!)
  7. Afternoon: Sell! Sell! SEll!
  8. At the end of the day, all unswapped/unsold stuff (and cash!) can be donated directly to local charities (pick up times will be pre-arranged)

Any questions? Ask @gracerodriguez, @cosmopolitician, @favouritethings. Surprises are in store, so stay tuned!

See you on July 11...

Grace, Monica, Mandy

P.S. If the Swapper/Seller RSVPs reach the maximum limit of 13, RSVP as a Browser/Buyer and comment that you want to be added to the waitlist in case a spot opens up.

P.P.S. We'll be showing the World Cup game (projected on the wall!), so don't worry - you won't miss a single moment! Remember, though, it's BYOB...whatever your beverage of choice may be.
