    Wendy! That patchwork sweater you're wearing gave me a great idea!
    So I have a bunch of old shirts that are wearing out and I have been trying to figure out what to do with them... They don't really give me enough material individually to make a new shirt out of, but pieced together I think they would make a neat sweater. Thanks, Wendy! :D

    Curious if anyone has tips for dealing with that "thrift store smell" (if you love to thrift you know what I mean haha) when it comes to items that can't be washed like bags and other accessories? I've had some luck with rubbing alcohol or vinegar but it's been kinda hit and miss

    • @britta1957
      @britta1957 4 года назад +62

      Keeping an item outside in a safe place to air it out for a few hours, warm soapy spot wash with a gentle scent, a lavender pouch, or laundry sheet (store inside or rub on item)

    • @luvingstuff

      @PracticalPip 4 года назад +6

      I have a thrifted bag that is leather and very old. It has such a strong smell and I have done everything possible to get rid of it. I just accept it and know that it's so old and wear it anyways. I haven't had anyone else notice around me anyways.... I used vodka inside it, dryer sheets and tried airing it out. I think I might try essential oils inside it and rub the entire inside with lavender next. LOL! We shall see!

    im really glad i live in toronto, i feel like i have way better luck thrifting here than back in my hometown! also i like to hit up thrift shops near older neighborhoods with a lot of houses for sale bcus it means that its likely an older person moved out of the home they raised their family in and are probably going to donate stuff before they move ;) i've been needing a new everyday bag and i think i will spend some time searching for the perfect one to thrift!

    This is a great video Wendy! I thrift a lot of handbags and love to find unique bags. You can also use magic eraser sometimes too on bags that have any kind of stains. I have used it on real leather and as long as you test a small part of the bag first, it should be good. I I love the orange bag so much! I am currently searching for an orange one, lavender and all white.

    It would be interesting to see what gems you could find at a thrift store that isn't Value Village. Here in Halifax, Value Village is the most expensive thrift store around...a lot of the time it's cheaper to go to the original point of purchase and buy the item new, than to purchase from there. Mainly because (here anyway) they price by brand name, rather than item type.

    How I clean all of my cotton cloth shell handbags -OR- cloth lining to pleather or vinyl shell handbags that I've either bought from Goodwill, Thrift Store's, Yard Sales or Flea Markets, that are dirty..
    I use a mixture if ~65 to 70% very warm purified water(there should be no chemicals in your water)+ 35 to 30% cleaning ammonia~ ... But first, I would spot clean a very small area on the inside of the handbag on the bottom part with a small amount of mixture and let it set for 24hrs to make sure you don't ruin your handbag..
    If you don't have a problems, what I would use is a big clean plastic tub, fill with purified water/ammonia(mix), submerge my handbags (make sure handbags are cover completely with ammonia/water mixture) if needed, take another clean plastic tub place it on top of your handbags and put something very heavy to weight down handbags to make sure they are covered completely with water/ammonia mixture..
    About every hour or so, lift 2nd tub off handbags, moving your handbags gently, swishing them around (like that of a agitator in your wash machine on gentle cycle) for about 10 - 15mins and if your handbags are really filthy dirty, you may need to increase ammonia and decrease your purified water and change water/ammonia mixture several time over 24 - 48hrs.. Rinse several times with purified warm water and drip dry hanging upside down.. This works wonders, better then taking them to the dry-cleaners...
    Make sure to dry and polish the metal on your handbags too...
    And what I was told is that this is cheaper to use and they say it works better, I don't know---I wouldn't use it!
    But it's fermented urine!...
