If you love needle crafts as much as I do, no doubt you know how terribly expensive and investment a needle work kit of any kind can be. For some years now, I have wanted to try my hand at making wool felt candle mats or table runners. I have seen so many cute ideas on Pinterest! But what an investment! Then I discovered that yard sales, estate sales and thrift stores are the best places to find good deals on needlework kits! Granted, you have to take whatever there is to offer and you do not have a lot of choice in what is there. But for pennies on the dollar, it can be worth it!
I picked these kits up along the way of the 50 Mile Yard Sale this summer, and I paid $2.50 apiece for them! The ones that had price tags still on them had sold for $25- $30 each! And the kits I did not care to save to make, I turned around and sold on ebay for a profit, so Win-Win!
