I just wanted to let you in on my version of shopping...called "thriftin it"! I try to do some of my shopping from thrift stores, and the like because it's better for the enviroment, it recycles, and most times I love what I find for a price that is affordable. I'll show you some of my finds from my latest adventure. Don't get me wrong I buy full retail too-but when I do that, I tend to go to mom and pops, or retailers and catalogs that give back, and are aligned with good values, and try to make the world a better place. Some of my favorites in that category are Sundance Catalog, Isabella, Patagonia, Eartangelstoys.com, amyhanna.etsy.com...Any how since this post is really about "thriftin it" I should get back on track. When I am thrifting I always tend to look for natural fibers, vintage, good metalwork, chandeliers, and chandelier parts-hard to find these days...vintage jewelry-hard to find, religious medals, and crosses, and rosaries-really hard to find....and cool china and dish wear. Well enough of my "thriftin it" wish list...on with the photos...
collage jewelry, hand wrought charms, vintage amulets, tattered papers, memories traded and stored, healing recipes, lotions, potions, inspirited stories, transformational development through art.....and a book.
