Thrifting day with Julia!
today, julia and i had our second thrifting adventure! we decided we would look up a few thrifts local to goodwill and see what we could find. we had a pretty good day overall. it's been awhile since ive blogged but i thought it would be fun to share our adventure!!
we planned to hit up smithfield, ri area...but we saw a facebook post from co-op consignment in putnam, ct and knew that HAD to be our first stop! they got some stunning vintage glass pieces in. we ended up picking up this adorable clear fairy light for our good friend (they have the most amazing indiana glass pieces in that we were drooling over!!) this is always one of my favorite places to shop--the owners and employees are all great, the store is clean, and there is always something new! i go there at least once a week and almost always pick something up!!
next stop brought up into chepatchet, ri to the twice blessed thrift shop at the union church. it was clean and well organzied. it was a super cute little building that was easy to navigate. prices were very good. Julia got a cute little basket and i got a victoria secret pj set. lady running the show was very lovely!
stop number three was another church...the church mouse thrift shop at the episcal church in smithfield. this one was a bit smaller and had mostly clothing but did have some super cute kitchen items and a little gift like section where the employees were with some gorgeous mouse cards that the lady who was there made herself! staff was friendly and were happy to explain anything we had questions on! julia got a uconn shirt...i picked up several cute items including some toms shoes and a pampered chef stoneware but im in the middle of a giant clean out and i didnt want to pick up to much today. prices were decent, a bit higher than a typical church thrift but very reasonable (i think shirts were $4 and dressy jackets $8)
from there we headed further into smithfield stopping at the pal humane society thrift...they closed in 15 minutes, we looked around the frist few aisles but the lady told us she wanted to close early because it was going to rain and not so kindly asked us to leave (just as i was picking up some books to buy!) so we liekly wont be back...got some quick lunch at mcds ($6 value menu for the win!) then headed to our main event, which was goodwill. i like this goodwill because it feels cleaner than the others (maybe its because its newer??) it tends to be hit or miss for finding goodies, but we did good today! julia found a few nice tops and a photo frame and i hit the toy motherload (and couldnt pass up an adorable rae dunn canister set!)
overall, we had a great day! we found a few new places to visit and got some fun items to enjoy!
