Unusual Home Ideas - Second Hand Shopping

Hello, hello!

I am so happy you are reading this, because I want to share something very dear to me today. It's Tonka, from pEri!x the ONLINE SHOP for recycled jewelry and gifts!

I want to talk to you about second hand and thrift shopping and to make it more fun let's just first listen to this song:

Now, let's get a bit more serious. We produce much more than we need so re-using is just a logical way to reduce our consumption and thus have our input in decreasing the mass production of items. 

With the latest vintage trends re-using is also a way to stay on top of fashion. Vintage clothes shops pop up everywhere, and vintage is not for the antique lovers only anymore.  It is a style, it is an attitude to the world.

The reason I started buying second hand clothes, utensils, furniture and books was not only the much much lower price but also the quality! Old things are just better, guys! Clothes are made from better fabrics, plates are stronger and books have fancier covers.

Second hand is awesome! Which is your favorite thrift shop? Mine is Mamamini in Groningen, The Netherlands :)
