Thrifting with the Gals

Welcome to the Thrifting with the Gals monthly blog hop as we share our thrifted finds and how we decorated with these finds throughout our homes.

“Thrifting with the Gals” started with a group of friends who met over on Instagram and formed a special relationship through a mutual love of home decorating. We share a passion for all things vintage, thrifty, and cozy.

Our styles are all unique, from Kristin’s log cabin in the Northwoods of Wisconsin, Rachel’s farmhouse in North Carolina, Robyn’s beautiful French Nest in Florida, and, of course, myself thrifting for our homes from Vermont to Coastal Maine.

Meet the Thrifting Gals

This month, we have Jennifer from Cottage on Bunker Hill joining us as a guest host. Jennifer lives near me when we are in Maine, and we are looking forward to meeting up in early May to do some thrifting at Sage Farm’s Antiques. If you’ve never been and you’re local, you should definitely check it out. It’s one of my favorites!
