So, sad to say it's been a while since I've had a successful thrifting day :( and I have to admit I haven't gone much recently. I have been on the opposite end of thrifting than usual. I had a garage sale! Needless to say its hard to watch others find the treasure where I now only see junk...but it was successful! I purged my shed, closet, storage, everything! It felt great to make space for my future treasures! (No I'm not a hoarder! I just like my stuff.) it is a great skill to be able to purge when necessary.
Luckily my last trip to my local Goodwill was a minor success!
So...
I LOVE my old VHS tapes and refuse to give up my VCR, therefore I always scour the rack of VHS tapes at my local Goodwill. On my last visit I was lucky enough to find two of The Lord Of The Rings series and on top of that it was half off day so I got both for $1!!
Also a great find that day was this awesome vintage feeling watch. It's faux pearl band makes it cute and classic. Also the face is in Roman numerals! Very cool! On the downside, I took it to my jeweler and he said that its broken :( sad day, but for only $4.99 I'll still wear it as a fashionable bracelet! And let's be honest, I probably couldn't figure out the time on it anyways!
Finally, I found this awesome faux turquoise pendant necklace for only $4.99! I am so in love with this necklace I've worn almost everyday! It truly goes with everything!
So...today's tips on thrifting, you won't always find something and that's okay!
Don't forget the sections other than clothes.
Faux is fine!
Don't give up!
