The pop-up opened on Thursday, February 20 at Meninya St and has enjoyed a successful first few days.
Shine Bright owner Jaki Osborne said opening an op shop has been in the works for a while.
“We’ve got a few clients that are finishing school, so we were talking with the kids about what they wanted... and they wanted to open a shop,” she said.
“Since then, we’ve been looking for somewhere but it has been so hard to find a place because rent is so expensive and being a non-for-profit.
“We finally found a place and the owner has been amazing... [The kids] have been coming along to inspect the property and they’re very excited.”
The pop up has a range of quality items available.

The future op shop is located in the old English Country Gardens nursery on Ogilvie Ave but for now, the Border Inn have donated their space at 25 Meninya St for the pop-up.
The Shine Bright team has been busy collecting donations and setting up shop, even driving as far as Yarrawonga to pick up deliveries.
They currently have a range of quality items available at discounted prices with big brand names including FRANKIE, Ziera, Hael & Jax, Mollini and R.M Williams.
Donations can be made by contacting Jaki Osborne on 0447 825 518 or dropped off in-store at 25 Meninya St during opening hours.
The pop-up shop will be open every day from 9am until Friday, March 1.
