What sells at brac-a-brac stalls?

I’ve been asked to help with a charity bric-a-brac stall at a church fundraiser. What is likely to sell? I don’t want to be left with tonnes of stuff that doesn’t sell to take home! Thanks

Photo frames?
Candles?
Jigsaws?
Vases?
Costume jewellery?
General home decor/goods?
Kitchenware?

I guess it's extremely subjective and will depend on the demographic and personal taste of those attending.
Good luck with the organising, and on the day. Hope the event is successful.

Well if you ask people to donate most people take it as an excuse to go through their rubbish and give it to you so they don't have to throw it out.

I'd say you're better asking people if they can donate one good thing, rather than a bag of rubbish.
Books normally don't go too badly. Jigsaw puzzles (especially if you can get someone to check them-often counting the pieces is good enough) and things like that. You'll probably get half of them back the next year too. 😂

I’d go for books personally or comics, annuals, vinyl
