Finding Thrift Store Treasures and How To Use Them

Michele at Vintage Home Designs

I have to say, I’m a bit obsessed with thrift store and estate sale shopping.

I love finding treasures at a bargain and creating unique ways to use them in my home decor.

Sometimes, they need a bit of a makeover or a facelift, but sometimes you get lucky and find a jewel that doesn’t need a thing.

Several months ago, I joined the ladies that host “Thrifting With The Gals” as a guest host, and shared some of my vintage thrifted treasures and how I have styled them in my home and also tips and tricks for finding thrift shops, and estate sales.

You can read my thrifting story, how I like to incorporate my vintage/thrifted finds in my home, and some tips for a day of thrifting here.
