Snow Day!!!!!


Well, I'm not exactly snowed in, but my street was full of ice this morning. Thank you all for understanding the erratic hours of the store lately. I want to be successful, but I think everyone should just stay put for now!

I will open the store tomorrow morning at 10:00 A.M. sharp. No amount of snow can keep me away! I hope you are all staying safe and warm and we'll be back in business tomorrow!

Wow.....that was fast!!!!


Did I mention we have some hats, purses and shoes?????
Here is my model....she's expensive, but she is fabulous!
And just to prove the Frog Blog really works; shortly after I posted the Minnetonka Boots in an earlier blog, someone (we won't mention Val's name) with cold feet came in to pick them up!
So, as you can see, the good stuff just doesn't stick around!

I am not taking consignment until after January 1st. However, if you already have an account established, you may add items to your already existing account. To all the new consigners in waiting, hang on for a couple of weeks and we will get those sold for you.


A large percentage of the store is now TEN PERCENT OFF! Those tags will be marked with a red mark indicating a sale item. There will be signs to guide you while you are shopping.

C O M I N G S O O N..............................

FIND THE GOLDEN HANGER
One item will be placed on the 'Golden Hanger' and hung somewhere in the store. If you find AND purchase what is on the Golden Hanger, you will receive a 25% discount off that item.
Watch for the 'Find the Golden Hanger' each month as the discounts will be more significant at times. That could mean 'FREE' people....so, find that hanger!




NEW ARRIVALS!




Check out this Vintage Leather Jacket!
Size 4 and very cute! Perfect condition.
Just arrived on Saturday, the Minnetonka Boots are warm and sylish!
Size 8 (but fit 8.5 comfortably)
And, last but not least, Our Plus Size section is almost complete for those Fabulous women out there. And, the quality is excellent.
Lots of possible Christmas Gifts. Come on down and see us!

Leap Frog Clothing And Consignment Comes to Black Diamond!


When I told my friends I wanted to open a consignment store, they were supportive, but I am sure they thought I was a little crazy. I began grabbing everything I could find that would make my vision of the store become a reality and threw it in the back of this U-Haul and asked my 60-ish year-old retired friend to kindly work her butt off for me so that I can make this a successful business. She happily pitched in and is still helping me get it off the ground.

Leap Frog Clothing and Consignment is simply an honest establishment that offers an option to those of us who buy clothes and either rarely wear them or never wear them and would like to recoup some of the money we spent on them. Although that is the bottom line for consignment.....turn your items over and split the profit with the owner.......it can be so much more than that. It is a meeting place. A network of those in the community who for one reason or another need a resource for selling and buying clothing and accessories without spending a fortune.

My philosophy is to keep my prices simple. Split the profit with my customer fairly and offer a warm and inviting atmosphere with just enough uniqueness (if that's a word) to give us all something to talk about.
In the blogs to come you will find up-to-date information on what hot new items are coming into the store, labels and specialty items, sale items and general information about the business and how we can help you find what you need and/or want!
If you have any questions, you can reach me at (206) 372-0070
Store Hours:
Closed Monday
Tuesday through Friday: 10am to 7pm
