It is hard for me to believe that I am posting my second yearly compilation of my favorite Thrift Store Decor Team projects! I’m so grateful to be part of this creative team. These ladies are truly talented and amazing! I’ve learned so many new skills over the past year and if you have been following along, I know you have as well! I’m looking forward to another amazing year filled with inspiration and learning and the Thrift Store Decor Team will not disappoint. I’ve selected my favorite post from each member for you to enjoy. At the end you will find 100 projects from this year. Let us know what you would like to see in 2023!
I’m gonna start with my own favorite projects. I’m a sucker for a good vintage make over. And these little beauties make me smile. Every one came from the local thrift store.
Sadie Seasongoods
Sarah sees potential in used items. Her an incomparable vision coupled with her flair for Mid Century combine to transform the discarded into useful and fabulous creations. I’m convinced that if more people repurposed perfectly good items like Sarah, climate change would be tucked away into the annuls of history. Keep teaching Sarah. We are listening!
Our Southern Home
You know I love all DIY but my journey started with furniture. And Christy along with her daughter Ashlyn really brought out the beauty in this traditional style dresser. I love a solid piece of furniture and when you can update it with a new finish, well…that’s the best thing ever. Christy details the steps and gives you the tutorial on how to bleach furniture yourself.
Organized Clutter
Carlene has a rustic primitive loving heart just like me. She is a wiz with paint and stencils. And she uses them to decorate and revive everything! From furniture to boxes and signs, Carlene give you countless ways to upcycle the blahs into beautiful decor. These upcycled boxes are a great answer to clutter and storage problems. Get busy!
With one foot in the Thrift Store and one foot in the mid century, Sarah’s passion is revitalizing previously used items. Her skill set is unparalleled and her appreciation for color shines. I wish the entire world had vision and appreciation for repurposing like Sarah. I’m convinced that Climate Change would be banished to the annals of history. Keep teaching Sarah! We are listening.
House of Hawthornes
There is just something about a whimsical display that gets me every time. And Pam has nailed it with this fun little snowman. He’s easy to assemble and so stinking cute! What a great addition to your entryway once the Christmas decor has been retired until next year. While her projects are always laid out in detail, you’ve gotta love Pam’s banter as she narrates her projects.
My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia
A roundup would not be complete without a fabric project and this one is on my to do list! I’m so glad that Kristen showed us how to make these darling fabric flags. These are such an easy way to dress up a corner for any occasion! I can see these poking out of plants in my kitchen and even on my deck.
My Domesticated Life
All right friends. Look closely at this mirror. The frame is made from…wait for it…wooden snakes from the Dollar Store. That’s the beauty of this group…finding the fabulous beauty is something totally unexpected and underrated. And Maryann really took her vision and created a winner. Imagine the impact we can have on landfills by repurposing all of those builder grade mirrors, cabinets and fixtures. Great suggestion Maryann!
Petticoat Junktion
I am probably the biggest paint nerd that ever walked. So when Kathy posted this picture, my paint senses went crazy! Couple the paint addiction with an attraction to bling and toss in some Hollywood Glam. This finish is AMAZING!
My Repurposed Life
Forgive me if I go heavy on the furniture projects but you know that’s where my roots lie. And there is something timeless about clocks and compasses. So when Gail upcycled this gorgeous table with a compass motif my heart was happy. Gail is wiz with the power tools when it comes to altering and repurposing great quality wooden pieces. Her design is always simple but absolutely awesome!
Reinvented Delaware
Cindy joined the team the at the same time as I. This is the place if you are a rustic vintage furniture lover. Cindy demonstrates the skills to transform old into loved. She is the queen of tutorials and her photography is spectacular. You should check out her posts for great tips on how to get that perfect shot!
