Preparing For New Season of Junkin and Thrift Shopping

Preparing For New Season of Junkin and Thrift Shopping

Hi, and Welcome to Thrifty Shop Girl! Glad to have you stopping by. In the area I live in Old Man Winter has been trying to hang onto us here, and drag the winter out longer than should be too. I believe this week it is no longer working. Sunshine days, temperatures rising during the day, temperatures warming more at night, no snow but rain, and so on. Spring is finally showing herself to us. 

With the seasons changing also comes a new season for Junkin, and Thrifting too! There have been some areas where the weather has been great, and some people have been able to start off with the seasonal shopping. I myself am getting antsy, and I envy those who have already been able to get out, and get started with this seasonal change. 

These past couple of years I had slowed down on thrifting, and junking in order to lower my inventory. Also, to change my ways of shopping to what I probably would need. Not what I seen that looks good, is cute, and have to have purchases. Although not all the inventory is gone I have lowered it quite a bit, and of course have made room for more shopping, and to go digging again too! Vintage Collectibles, find items to repurpose, look for items to upcycle, and just find some lovelies that I can reuse too.

I decided this year to stay better organized, and more prepared with things that I should make a list of items that I would like to find, search for, and find. It never fails that every year I always get sidetracked with sales, and come home with loads of things I shouldn't be buying, or you know....that really weren't needed. Come on, you know what I am talking about, right? I figured with a wish list I would at least have more of a goal of what I am wanting, what I need, and it will definitely give me more ideas of what I should be sticking with too. So, tell me, what is on your list for this year?

Thanks so much for sharing your time with Thrifty Shop Girl everyone, and hope to see you all again soon. Take care, and Happy Thriftin and Junkin too!
