Hello Friends!
Thank you so much for visiting our site to learn more about Rhea Lana's and our upcoming event!
We are thrilled to be sharing Rhea Lana's with the Chattanooga community! My name is Emily Darras and I am originally from Raliegh, NC but moved to Chattanooga in 2005. My husband, Sam Darras, and I met on a blind date 7 years a ago, and the rest is history! After the birth of our son, Henry, a friend gave me a visitor pass to my first Rhea Lana’s event here in Chattanooga. My husband and I were immediately hooked on using this consignment sale to recycle our baby things and purchase the next seasons items we needed for him. As a first time mom, I was blown away by all of the high quality baby clothes and items I was able to find at such amazing prices! After attending several Rhea Lana's events, I decided to ask the owner some questions about how one goes about owning and operating one of these franchises. She shared just enough to pique my interest. One year later I received an email in my inbox that the Chattanooga franchise was up for sale. My husband and I immediately knew it was something we were interested in and shortly thereafter purchased the franchise. Chattanooga area moms and their families needed to benefit from the fun and savings of a Rhea Lana's event and we wanted to be the one's to keep it running and growing!
Although there are other consignment events, Rhea Lana's is the only one we felt driven to participate in due to the company's impeccable standards. Each of the items you consign in our sale is tracked and accounted for or you will be reimbursed. You can track your sales online during the event, and your check is ready for pick up the Saturday after the event ends.
Our general consignors make 60-70% and we also offer a "VIP" option to moms that are strapped for time. For this service, we schedule a time for you to drop off your items, then we hang, price, tag and deliver them to the sale. Space is limited and the slots fill up quickly, so please contact us right away if you are interested. VIP moms also get a "PreSale" pass to shop before the general public.
All items that consignors choose not to pick up will be donated to Tennessee Baptist Home for Children. They also help us host a FREE Foster family shopping time after the event concludes!
We at Rhea Lana's love supporting the Chattanooga community by connecting local families to a new way of outfitting your kids with the highest quality clothes, toys and gear at prices every family can afford!
Please contact us with any questions. We would love to hear from you!
