I am a big fan of Marktplaats. This Dutch daughter website of Ebay helped us get rid of a lot of stuff when we moved. I also really like the idea of recycling and making money doing so.The first thing ever I sold on there were steel toed boots from Jonny. He had had those boots as long as we were together and some more, but never wore them. It turned out they never fit him properly, they were too big. Now Henk in the north east of Groningen is the proud owner of some vintage Reebok boots. He's happy, we're happy.
When we couldn't find a dresser to fit the kitchen wall, we decided to have a look on Marktplaats too. And last week we have acquired our first item: a semi-antique wooden dresser. I have since customised it with porcelain Delft Blue drawer handles. So now we have a lot more storage space in the kitchen and it was cheaper than Ikea!
