LOH #180:The Hidden Gems and Happiness You Find At Thrift Shop!

Hi everyone, it's me again. I'm delighted to respond to this question for the 180th contest in this fantastic community.

2️⃣ Do you like to Thrift shop? Shopping for used clothes and useful household items are a practical, economical, and earth friendly way to outfit yourself and home. And once in a while you make that perfect ‘find.’ Share with us that found treasure and why was it perfect?

One of my favourite things is a thrift shop, but the advantages go far beyond having fun.

I've always enjoyed thrifting, which is how A Vintage Splendor came to be. Numerous elements combine to create an adrenaline sensation that makes the #ThrilloftheThrift real.

It's sustainable!

Fast fashion is severely harming our world. It's designed to be discarded to entice us, the buyers, to purchase more. Clothing, thrift or vintage, has withstood the test of time and is finding a new, loving home. It's satisfying to know that, rather than adding to the already excessive amount of waste in our world, I can return an item of clothing from your closet to the world of thrifted clothing after it has served its purpose.

I adore discovering unusual, vintage items.

Style is personal to me. Finding what makes me smile and feel good about myself is more important than seeing what's "on trend" or in or out of style. I adore discovering distinctive, vintage pieces that complement my distinct style. I can play with pieces and my style without breaking the bank.

In the world of thrifting, there are countless options. If you're into that kind of thing, you can find a three-piece denim suit or an ensemble made of yarn. The affordability of the thrifting lifestyle adds to its inclusivity. You are not spending a ridiculous sum of money to try something new. When buying new clothes, $20 can go much farther with thrifting than it used to. My style constantly changes because I always try new things and stay within budget.

Piles of stuff surround you, and you don't know where to begin.
This is not a task that you must undertake by yourself. For many, thrift store shopping has evolved into art; the key is locating those hidden gems and turning them into valuable finds or investments.

I've developed an obsession with estate sales, garage sales, and thrifting. Thrift store treasure hunting is one of my favourite pastimes!

Being receptive is excellent advice to follow while visiting a thrift store. Never enter one expecting to find a specific item. Style is also a significant factor in thrifting. It instantly gives off a vintage vibe that meshes well with individual fashion sense.

One of the main reasons people thrift is to find hidden gems. The greatest discovery is discovering unused, brand-new items.

The best part of thrifting is finding adorable, new items. You never know what treasures you might find, so I always try to go with an open mind.

Wrapping Up

Thrift shopping can give clothes a new lease of life. You can be resourceful with what you already own in your closet and save money. Numerous shops offer countless options, from distinctive boutiques to neighbourhood thrift stores.

Thrift store shopping encourages creativity and self-expression. It takes more than just buying to create my own look; I also need to choose, mix, and arrange things. I can let my creativity run wild, try my hand at do-it-yourself projects, and combine vintage objects with modern styles. Thrashed objects can be transformed into artistic canvases.

The thrill of discovery, affordability, sustainability, inventiveness, and excitement of discovering something new are what ultimately make thrift shopping enjoyable. Therefore, whether you're looking for vintage gems, one-of-a-kind housewares, or an affordable wardrobe update, thrift shopping offers an experience unlike any other!

That second hand store is great, here in my country it is difficult to find stores like that, there was one near my house but it closed its doors.
Definitely in these stores you can find treasures as you have commented, and also that benefits us in our budget.
Your publication is great.😊

I know that adrenaline charged thrill when you find a treasured piece that would fit our wardrobe forever. I remember my old days spending much on a new top only to wear it a few times before spending years in the bottom of my closet, a waste. And learning to be creative is a marvelous challenge to think about it before you commit to buying. If I make a mistake, then I know my money went to a community charity. Good Hunting @teacherlynlyn 😀👜

Indeed, there's no such waste when we go in a thrift shop and find an item that suits to our fashion taste rather than buying a new one and spending years in our closet afterwards.
Thank you for dropping by ♥️
