The Beginnings to Teaching in China: Selling Books and Necklaces

20120625-181347.jpg

My husband and I are in the beginning process of moving to China to teach English. We have a house full of stuff and would be gone a year renting our home to someone else. That means we need to fit only the important necessary items in a closet size unit in our house garage.

How to become STUFF FREE:
The 1st step-

Selling books on Amazon.

This is the book shelf we started listing from.

My husband printed the bought UPS package stamps from offline.

To save money I taped the packages up with paper. It took a long time, I recommend yellow envelopes. (A Close up)

Selling handmade necklaces on Etsy. Here are the necklaces I am selling. They can be purchased on Etsy. http://www.etsy.com/shop/MauraTreasures?ref=seller_info_countThe pictures below were taken by me. I spent the afternoon with a friend who let me use her as a model for my necklaces.
