Linda is kind enough to indulge my obsession with thrift stores and consignments shops. Whenever I am in town the two of us make the rounds of all the second hand stores in town. I am always working on some crafting project or another that requires the upcycling of some forgotten, abandoned object that I can purchase for pennies on the dollar. This trip I was looking for wooden candle holders that I can paint to form a grouping on my living room mantel.
As we were going from store to store we came across art installations on the sidewalks in St. George. I love stumbling upon unexpected treasures! Both in second hand stores and on the street.
Linda and I found another little treasure- a high end clothing consignment store on the same block as a thrift store we had been searching for. It was just luck that I noticed the consignment store at the other end of the block. It was filled with gorgeous designer clothing and shoes. We decided to give a few items a new home, and were excited about our purchases. There is nothing like the thrill you get when you find a real treasure in a second hand store.
