Enjoy thrifting. Love many decorating styles. Picking bargains. But I can’t take them all home. So, with regret, some treasures get left behind. Lemon8 allows me to remember and share them with you. The little jewelry chest was so stinking cute. The barn pic was primo, just out of my budget. Alway

5 things I dislike about thrifting as a thrifter
1. Prices are becoming outrageous for PRE-WORN clothing. I won’t blame it only on resellers but that definitely contributes to the problem. As a college student, thrifting is what I can afford and now some things I’m finding are out of my budget these days. 2. People who are snobby about brands
