If you love hunting for treasures at thrift stores, estate sales and garage sales, you’re in the right place. Texas Gal Treasures is all about helping resellers identify what they’ve found, figure out what it may actually be worth, and decide whether it’s worth picking up to resell.

I share practical jewelry identification guides, vintage item research, eBay sold-comps tutorials and real-world reselling strategies based on the same methods I use when sourcing and selling items myself.
