]]>Know right away how much time you’re willing to invest in flipping certain items. If the thrift clothes you stumbled upon require too much work, consider going with a less challenging project that won’t be so time-consuming.
Some people like upcycling second-hand clothes because it’s a fun adventure, while others do it to save money. Unfortunately, putting a DIY twist on your thrift store finds doesn’t always come cheap. Try to do a calculation in your head on the spot, and if you think you’d spend more money than on a brand-new item—just leave it be.

]]>There are tons of items to sift through at thrift stores so be patient, and set aside an afternoon to spend at your local store. Start with your favorite section and really look at the items as hidden gems may be hiding deep in the racks.
