💛 WELCOME To Tuesday everyone ...
We’re kicking off a fresh week in Thrift Insider (albeit a day late but oh well) and I’d love to hear from you. Drop ONE thing below: 👉 your latest thrift find OR 👉 the last thing you looked at but didn’t buy... A photo or a GIF is perfect! Let’s get to know each other again. 💛 I found this the other day ...its in a more modern frame but I loved the art work on this birthday greeting from Aug 18 1921 ... traditionally Māori art on the frame ...pretty cool I think ❤️

Ohakune, Manawatū, New Zealand - Ethical Waste. A cool space at the refuse centre in Ohakune. Has a bit of everything. It’s my first stop when I need anything.
A question for you ...🔥

It can be anything… 💎 A job you used to have... 💎 A really weird talent... 💎 Collections of... 💎 A crazy coincidence that happened one time... 💎 A skill that you have that no one realises ... 💎 An award you received... We're all mostly strangers so this should be easy...lets break the ice 🎉
