Welcome to the fifth instalment of Project Profit, a series that we're on a mission to turn thrifted finds into funds for charitable causes. So far, we've raised $1262.82 through flipping second-hand items. With the festive season approaching, Rachael ventures into upcycling and crafting DIY Christmas ornaments to sell at a local market as a contribution to this series. In this video, she dives into how to make 4 unique Christmas ornaments that you can make yourself!
All proceeds from this sale were donated to the Red Door Family Shelter. Red Door is a local shelter that provides support for women and children affected by domestic abuse, families experience housing crisis's and refugees who feel like they have no where else to turn. Check them out and consider donating to their cause : www.reddoorshelter.ca/
Also a big thanks to the Sunday Variety Market, you can check them out at this link here : sundayvariety.com/

Ok but rochelle thanking the trees is such a tender moment ❤
-
Rochelle needs to make and sell those tills for other people doing markets! They look so professional!
-
There is so much to love in this one video! We have Rachel and Rochelle teaming up - giving OG Sorry Girls vibes! We have charming ornament tutorials. And best of all, we have money being raised money for families in crisis. Congratulations ladies! 🎄🌟❄️🎁

Rochelle is the true creative genius of the lot. She deserves more screen time.
-
Watched this while prepping for my own holiday market! I think we seriously need a tutorial on that register Rochelle made, it was a work of art!!
-
Rochelle is (all the positive superlatives there are in the dictionary). OMG. She and Graham of Team AG are my absolute favourites. Amazing work, ladies!
-
i LOVE the market booth profit for charity idea! Would love to see this as a series for all the seasons...especially with that amazingly made till by Rochelle! You guys are awesome!
-
I actually like both of these gals better when theyre working together - makes me feel like this is what I used to like about the channel was the duo aspect.. hope this continues as i think it serves the brand.
-
I love everything about this series. The inspiration is amazing and I love the profits going to charities.
-
Not only are all the ornaments gorgeous and the cause amazing, but I love that you added a "filming in progress" warning to the sign! I've worked retail for years and have been filmed without my consent so many times. (Especially bad working at Nespresso.) It's such a kind and respectful gesture!
-
The SG editors rarely get mentions in the comment section so I'd like to say beautiful job on the loveliest christmassy music choices (and the impeccable work as usual of course). The music really gave me my first truly festive feelins this year.
-
Honestly the thoughtfulness and effort behind these Project Pofit episodes is moving <3 And the ornaments looked so cute and that cash register Rochelle made - holy moly so awesome!! Super inspired for the next time i'm selling my products at a creative market!!
-

-
As someone whose been a TSG girly for years now; I wasn’t sure about adding new faces but the love I have for Rochelle?! She was always a sorry girl ❤
-
Thank you for your generosity! I volunteer with a non profit organization, rely solely on donations that provide personal essential items that food stamps do not cover (TP, PT, feminine hygiene products, baby products and more). When someone generously donates money to buy products or donates products in general, it is such a blessing. The world has gone sideways and the needs are even more greater. Doing this shows your true heart! Again! Thank you!
-
I know the video just started(for me) but I NEED your blouse and sweater! 🤩
-
Welp, I said I wasn't going to make more ornaments this year but this changed my mind lol Also, I really need the crop multicolored sweater 💗
-
Requesting a tutorial on Rochelle’s awesome checkout station that she made! Great video!
