  • I’m showing you my very first thrift store haul and try on in today’s video! I love thrifting clothes and accessories but I’ve never actually filmed a haul video with what I’ve gotten, so I thought it’d be fun to make since I know a lot of you enjoy thrifting too. I visited my local Goodwill shop and found 10 pieces of clothing and accessories for less than $25 - some perfect for winter and others for spring! Check out the video to see what I got and hear some of my styling plans and refashioning ideas I have for a few pieces, then let me know in the comments what your favorite thrift store find has been!

    I love to shop at the goodwill I always find great fabrics, threads by the bag full and I bought my vintage sewing machine there for $7 it works better than my newer sewing machines 😂 I love to thrift shop you never know what you'll find! 😄🙌🙌🙌

    Yay, I'm a thrifter too, love going to charity shops we call them in UK. You have some great & pretty finds there.
    You could use rubbing alcohol or non-acetone nail polish remover to get the polish off the bag. 🤗
    Great that you go to these shops with an open mind, you can disassemble things, & use maybe an ugly dress or skirt as a template for a pattern to make something else, or turn a dress into a skirt, or just re-use the fabrics. By buying the biggest size you can get, you get more fabric. Lol. I've brought jewellery & taken it apart & made something completely different with it too. I've found actual sewing patterns & notions aswell. The possibilities are endless. 😁 Thank you for sharing your haul with us, & take care of yourself too. ❤🙂🐶

      That’s so awesome you love thrifting too! It sounds like you’ve had some awesome finds 😃 That’s a great idea to take apart jewelry and make something else with it too, I wouldn’t have thought of that! I saw a really cool necklace the other day at Goodwill and was disappointed because it was broken, now reading your comment I am thinking I could’ve taken the pieces that weren’t broken and maybe added them to another necklace or made earrings with them or something. I’ll definitely be looking at the jewelry with a different eye next time thanks to you! And thanks for the tip about getting the nail polish off the bag, I’ll definitely try that 😃 Have a great week!!

    Fantastic haul Monica. At my local Goodwill, I found a beautiful black w/ white polka dots stretch shirt where the fabric gathers into a v-neckline, other beautiful tops as well. It’s nice that people donate, recycle their clothing for others to appreciate. I just bought 3 purses that I would never have been able to afford new. You have to go regularly as the products change constantly.

      Thanks!! I’m glad you liked the haul 😃 It sounds like you’ve found some beautiful tops there and also some great bags! I know, things are so expensive new and it’s so great when you can find something that’s in great condition that someone else doesn’t want anymore... it gives it new life and I like the idea that it had a history before I got it too lol 😄 Thank you for watching and I hope you’re doing well!

    Hi Monica, lovely to see you and watch your thrifting video. I love charity shops and always find something that I cannot leave behind. One of my interests is refashioning my clothes, I can always find something to sew. So I for one would like to see more thrifting videos and refashion videos. You will inspire a lot of people to do the same as many of us who thrift do not buy fast fashion very often. Looking forward to next video. x

    We call them "Op Shops" here in Australia. "Op" short for opportunity.
    My favourite thing is finding the random bags full of fabric scraps for $5 and going through the bag to find anything unusual or pretty.

    • @ComicatCreations
      @ComicatCreations  Před 4 lety +1

      Ohh yes I think I've heard that name but didn't realize what it was! I bet it's fun to dig through fabric scraps 😃Especially for smaller projects!

    Fabulous finds Monika. Ohhhh the fabric belt with the buckle you don't like....if you don't find a replacement you like, you could always cover that one with a fabric that suits the belt more. Lee :)

    • @ComicatCreations
      @ComicatCreations  Před 4 lety

      Thanks so much Lee! Oh I hadn’t thought of that, I’ve never covered a buckle with fabric but I’ll definitely have to give that a try if I can’t find another 😃 Thank you for the tip! I hope you’re doing great and thank you for watching!! 💕

    Love your finds. I have been thrifting for awhile, and just recently started sewing them into different pieces, which they have told me is harder than sewing from scratch! That cute black belt would look great with jeans and a cute blouse. My fave thing I have found was a wonderful hobo purse with multcolored leather flowers all over. I get complements everywhere I go. Try going to church thrifts (st vincent de paul I believe is allover the US) they tend to be alot cheaper than goodwill. IMO Goodwill prices have been getting way out of hand. Happy Thrifting!

    • @ComicatCreations
      @ComicatCreations  Před 4 lety

      Thank you!! That’s so awesome you sew what you find into new things 😃 Oh that purse sounds so awesome!!! It definitely sounds like something special - I love anything with flowers and the boho style to it, nice find! I will look and see what other thrift stores we have around here. I agree, some things at Goodwill do seem too pricey... I saw a cute mint green jacket the other day that I loved but it had a stain on it and it was still $10 which I passed on because it wasn’t worth it to me. Thank you for watching!!

    2:55 about 9 or 10 years ago, when I was a sophomore in HS, I was in the after school program to recover credits. During break, the "teacher" brought in a metal stamping kit and a gallon size Ziploc bag full of old pennies. 2 or 3 other girls (and me) were flattening and stamping some. The kit was brought in every day for 2 1/2 weeks straight, and I made a bracelet similar to that necklace (though it looks like those are just blanks)

    • @ComicatCreations
      @ComicatCreations  Před 4 lety

      Oh that is so awesome! I bet that was fun to make a bracelet out of 😃 Do you still have it? Yes the one I found was just smooth on both sides but I’m sure the bracelet looked so cool having the detail of the coins on it! Thanks for watching!
