Advent 2011 - Day 13

The original upcycle - go to your local thrift store and find something to make anew.

This is where you can start.

Think a moment. Stuff like Aloha shirts? Dude, I founded on them while I was in Kona for a pittance of what they go for new. Picked up one that easily was a $200 shirt new for $5.

I remember the year I went in and cleared them all out of mugs, just to fill them with trail mix and give them away.

Surely, you have ideas of your own?

Share - and I'll see you tomorrow!

I get a file 404 on that link, not sure why.

Try again, I 'improved' the link.

Ahh, thank you. Interesting--the link gives me Thift Town chain stores (I am not familiar with them) and Salvation Army, whom I will not patronize because of their homophobic policies and practices, but not Deseret Industries, which actually had a pretty big store in this area (I don't patronize them either, but it's odd.)
