Thrift Shopping

Thrift Shopping with my baby girl…

173
Inspired by April over at Jane Says, Julia and I set out this afternoon to find some close thrift shops for some good wandering…

172

We found the C-U-T-E-S-T strip of shops in Cave Creek, AZ. (just barely north of the Phoenix / Scottsdale area).

Do you read Romantic Homes? (I do, and I H-E-A-R-T every page). Imagine my completely shrill squeal when we pulled up to…

One of the shops from the back of Romantic Homes!! (You can check, I promise I won’t be offended and I’ll still be your friend!)

Julia was so fun to thrift with!

The store owner was so kind. She was very kind and easy to talk to. Her shop was very photogenic!

We headed next door to Cheap Thrills…

Julia was so patient with me and just as excited about gloves, hats, old paper, linens, vintage lunch boxes (strawberry shortcake even had the thermos – not sure if that is cool or gross…)

Same story – the shop owner was kind and friendly – I truly enjoyed being in the store and felt completely comfortable lingering and dawdlin’.

All the shops were amazing. I already can’t wait to go back!

Thank you, April for the idea!
