Exploring the city focusing on thrifting, food and the unique. Austin – Farmer’s Market – Comprehensive Listing. I recently discovered a centralized listing. Of all farmer’s markets in Austin. Wow, there is a lot more than just the normal Saturday time slot. It is on the website for the popular and free magazine. Which you can pick up at the various Farmer’s Markets as well as Whole Foods. I will re-list a few main Farmer’s Markets below. Barton Creek Farmers Market. SFC Farmers’ Market Downtown. 8211; S...

Exploring the city focusing on thrifting, food and the unique. Goodwill Finds – Lake Austin. Found a new to me Goodwill. Tucked away in old west Austin on Lake Austin Blvd near Exposition Blvd. Next to Maudie’s near the Randall’s. I’ve driven within a block of here hundreds of times and didn’t know it was there. This is called the Lake Austin – Goodwill. I found a 1970s Sunbeam Mixmaster for $13 which reminded me of the Starship Enterprise. Still wanna buy one? Or try your luck with ebay. Navy and Gold C...

Exploring the city focusing on thrifting, food and the unique. Lonestar Round Up 2014 – Classic Carshow. So this past weekend I went to the Lonestar Round Up. For the third time. Awesome as always. They have about 500 plus classic cars on display. Everything from 1920s roadsters to 50s Chevrolet. Rustic pickup trucks to shiny chrome convertibles. In addition to beautiful vintage cars, it is a great chance to people watch. All the kustom culture and rockabilly type people come out. I love the retr...I thi...

Vintage Apron | Lost in Austin
https://vintage13.wordpress.com/2015/02/28/vintage-apron
Exploring the city focusing on thrifting, food and the unique. So, I finally added some new listing to my etsy shop. I have been lazy (and without a functioning external flash since before Christmas). Among them is an adorable floral half apron. This floral pattern of tiny roses reminds me of flour sack dresses and indeed might be made from one. This also has a bright pink ribbon detail with white lace. And a pocket. Also, am I the only one that has seen a decline in sales for vintage on etsy? Cookin...

Architectural Salvage at the Austin ReStore | Lost in Austin
https://vintage13.wordpress.com/2015/03/30/architectural-salvage-at-the-austin-restore
Exploring the city focusing on thrifting, food and the unique. Architectural Salvage at the Austin ReStore. I had another visit to the Restore in east Austin. It is like a thrift store for DIY and designers. You never know what treasure you will find. They are also a great place to donate fixtures or building supplies if you are remodeling and taking out functioning pieces. See my previous post on Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore. UPDATE: this store has moved! They also have cabinets, vanities and shelving...

Thred Up – Upcycled Clothing & Make a Little Cash on your Spring Cleaning | Lost in Austin
https://vintage13.wordpress.com/2015/05/22/thred-up-upcycled-clothing-make-a-little-cash-on-your-spring-cleaning
Exploring the city focusing on thrifting, food and the unique. Thred Up – Upcycled Clothing and Make a Little Cash on your Spring Cleaning. Periodically I go through my closet and get rid of clothing I no longer need. Usually, I just donate it to Goodwill or Salvation Army. This time I heard about a new way to get rid of clothes and maybe make a bit of cash. The best part is it is easy and all by mail and online so I don’t even have to leave the house. ThredUp.com. ThredUp Selling – Easy as 1, 2, 3.

Exploring the city focusing on thrifting, food and the unique. Retro Rentals – Austin. So the rental prices in Austin are super high. But you can still find a few single family homes instead of just leasing from an apartment complex. Some of these are cute old vintage homes from the 1930s thru 1960s. Some are little garage apartments located behind big houses which are also a great way to get into nicer neighborhoods on a budget. Hooray for colorful kitchens! A very cute 3 bedroom home with 1 bathroom st...
