Hello Guys, It’s December and #ThriftScoreThursday is back with a new Monthly Format feature your beautifully styled thrift finds and just in time for Christmas a magical mystery giveaway. While it won’t contain my magical brass unicorn (pictured), this giveaway will contain all the fabulousness he embodies! Cassie, Brynne and I have been shopping and setting aside some of our favorite finds for THREE LUCKY WINNERS – one winner will receive Brynne’s thrifted treasures, one will receive Cassie’s perfect picks, and one will be getting a special surprise box from yours truly! That means you have three chances to win!!!
You can hop on over to Instagram to enter in the comments of the above photo!
If you don’t have an Instagram account, never fear – I definitely don’t want to leave you out! You can also enter this giveaway simply by leaving a comment here on the blog. (Open to U.S. residents age 18+. Giveaway runs 12/1 to 12/7. We’ll draw winners and contact them next week!)
Now that you’re a psyched for the giveaway lets talk #ThriftScoreThursday
If you are new here, let me explain just what #ThriftScoreThursday is. We want you to participate! Hit up your local thrift stores, craigslist, yard sales, estate sales, side of the road, anything! Thrifty doesn’t necessarily mean from a thrift store. We want to see your good deals, wacky finds and treasures and how you style them in your home.
Don’t feel like you need to save those finds for Thursdays! Yes, features are shared on our blogs once a month and Instagram weekly on Thursdays, but we’re all checking in on (and using!) the hashtag all week long. So, when you see/find it, feel free to share it! And we love it when you tag your friends to play along, too!
The first Thursday of each month, Brynne from The Gathered Home, Cassie from Cassie Bustamante and I will pick our favorite thrift scores to feature. So please note that by linking up with #ThriftScoreThursday, you are giving us permission to share your finds via social media or on our blogs.
Now let’s get to those fabulous features…
I’m sure you can guess why I picked this shot from golddustgoods, paint by numbers are the best and the rest of these goodies ain’t bad either.
jmwearing finally finished her shelfie and it’s amazing! Even more amazing, everything pictured is thrifted. My kind of girl!
Thrifted finds work well for Christmas too, Refresheddes proves that with the addition of these festive berries. Then again anything would look festive next to that fabulous lamp.
Now let’s talk about how lucky menoch1 was to find not one but two fabulous dressers at Salvation Army. Originally they were going in the master bedroom but these needed to be out in the open!
Ever had a thrift find lead to a whoooole lot of rearranging? Well, that is exactly what happened to ciburbanity when this coffee table leapt into her car at the Restore. But it is a pretty great addition so I’d say it was well worth the effort!
My favorite thing about second hand treasure hunting is the amazing people you meet. Cate_stylemutthome met the sweetest man when she went to pick up this unique storage piece: Not only did he live around the corner from her parents’ house, but he actually had the original 1903 patent for these drawers from when he worked in the US patent office. And he had TWO (the post only implied that he had one for sale). She snapped them up and has a great story to boot.
Love how a few thrifted goodies like these from Danamoss add character to simple space. Little additions can sometimes make the biggest impact.
Another round of amazing finds everyone!
Now don’t forget to stop by and see what Brynne and Cassie have featured, along with additional chances to win our mystery giveaway.
