With summer winding down, it’s time to start getting ready to head back to school.

Here are some great finds from my local Salvation Army Thrift Store to inspire you!

Thrifting for dishware is a great way to find colourful and one-of-a-kind dishes.

Thrift stores always have a great selection of furniture. If it needs an update, you can easily paint it in a fun colour with one of the many furniture paint brands on the market.
There are so many great finds to help you get ready for school. Head to your local Salvation Army Thrift Store to see what you can find. Happy thrifting!
