old people have such good jackets that they leave behind when they either pass away or downsize to a retirement home! i find more hidden gems at estate sales because they're not as picked over as thrift stores. they're also usually much cheaper as well, since they're just trying to clear out the house! i recommend checking estatesales.net or estatesale.com for sales near u.

eBay you really have to pick through but youโll find stuff!
Everything but the house depends because the estate sales are temporary but some good stuff sometimes!
And those resale websites like verstaire or the real real

I stumbled upon an estate sale last week and itโs turned my world upside down. A place with few vintage resellers (thank god), lots low prices and cool things. I found this mirror and I soon be hanging it up. **if you are a vintage reseller- you did not see this post & you will not ruin the one sacred, affordable shopping experience left pls and thank you **

I love doing collages, cuz all you really need are magazine cutouts and glue. There's a very low barrier to entry, skill-wise AND supply-wise, unlike painting. Digital collages are fun too, but I try to have less screentime by doing the paper ones. If I want to re-use pieces instead of gluing them down permanently, sometimes I'll just take a picture of the current arrangement to immortalize it, and then start over on a new composition. That way, I don't have to constantly buy new magazines to get new cutouts. This is one of my favorite ones I've done so far:

i always get stuck choosing which stuff to watch/read/get into next when i look at my huge former watchlists & TBR's. a lot of items are things i put on there years ago and never got around to, so usually by the time i check the list again, my tastes have totally changed. i realized it was hard to get myself excited or motivated about half the stuff i put on there anymore, but i felt indebted to knocking it out anyway just because it was on the list. i'd recommend letting your current feelings/impulses take the wheel, and trust that you'll come back around to any of the other options if they're right for you later on.
