Secondhand Shopping Isn't Boring Any More—It's Booming

If you have useful stuff you don't need, in reasonable condition, don't board it or throw it in a hole (or on a fire). Donate it to an op shop!
Op shop scores today: another Coen Brothers movie for the collection, and four CDs. $10 🙂
· Enya – The Celts
· Enya – Amarantine
· Enya – The memory of trees
· Deep Forest (don't ask me the name!)
Coen Brothers' The Ladykillers isn't a patch on the 1955 original, which frankly cannot be bettered. But it's still a good movie and it brings me closer to completing the set!

I took these before remembering Friday's post. Oops 🤦♀️
#Jeans $5 from Kmart clearance; #shoes and T-shirt (and bra, not pictured) free from #BuyNothing; jade #pikorua and jacket #thrifted from different #OpShops; bag and boulder opal #earrings were gifts from Mum; #silver and mother-of-pearl ring #SecondHand from a little shop in the New Zealand town of Russell; silver Eye Of #Ra necklace from ages ago; beaded #bracelet #handmade by moi; and, of course, the blasted Shein black #flower hair clip.
Right. I'm going to keep trying.
I love my #transkids #pottery #chickens #dogs #ponds
I work with kids and sometimes write stuff. Sometimes people pay me.
I love ridiculous clothes #opshops #rewilding
I put pineapple on pizzas and I'm not even sorry.
Everyone in my family is some flavour of neurodiverse geek 💕
