I love thrifting and garage sale-ing:) I have put together some ideas along with a slide show for gifting secondhand items without looking cheap.
Check it out:
Secondhand gifting: Cheap or charming?
The picture above was a gift pouch made for a 1982 Cyclograph. I found it for $1 with the instruction book and all of the original pieces:) The box was a little banged up, so I cut parts of the packaging with scalloped shears and pasted them to some felt to make a groovy little gift bag. I might consider personalizing the other side with a name.
So, what do you think? Cheap or charming?
