cheap

thrifty is the new cheap. and I love shopping thrift. I refuse to buy things full price.



8 bucks is the most I spend on a shirt.

I spent 50 on my tv cabinet....and it ABOUT gave me a HEARTATTACK!!!!

I love rethrifting stuff:
old stuffed animals                          old tie to bow tie


broken blinds to starburst mirror             hand me down canisters     


          dress up suitcase                thrift store shelf and some other crap


old baby onesises to hat                         ugly tie to snake


all the jeans for my levi aprons come from thrift stores...

seriously...I could keep going.


anyways...what i am sllllooowwwly trying to say is
i wrote a little article on thrift shopping.....

    I was sooo excited when I found a good will near me! It was awesome! And I was able to make myself a 3$ accessory rack because of it ! Great article!

    I am seriously addicted to thrifting, almost all of the... no all of the makeovers on my blog involve thrifted things... I'm already scouting out new thrift stores to hit up when I move to Califorinia at the end of the summer.

    I love thrifting. It's the only time when my loathing for shopping chills out a little.
