It’s the start of a new month, which means the start of a new challenge. To re-jog your memories, Jaharn from iamvintagelover.com and I are partaking in a cross continental exchange of sorts. The premise of The Thrift Exchange is that we pick a theme/challenge at the beginning of the month and then spend the remainder of that month hunting down the perfect piece via op-shops, vintage markets, etsy, and ebay – which we will then send to the other person. All while staying within our $15 budget. As I chose the theme last month, this time it was Jaharn’s turn. How wonderful an idea was this? Pulling the theme out of a milk bottle! Love it. I can’t wait to get started on this floral challenge (although I still have to post my item from the first month’s challenge later today). Once we receive the items from the first challenge, we’ll both be doing outfit posts and writing a bit about our experiences. Thus completing the first Thrift Exchange cycle. So keep checking back for updates!
This is such a lovely idea. Can't wait to see what you both find for each other x
