Thrift Shopping...Girl's Just Wanna Have Fun!

Have trouble coming up with a way to spend all of that cookie money?
Looking for a fun activity to do with the Scouts?
Look no further!

Thrift Shopping. It's the latest trend!
Here at college, everyone loves to go thrifting! We have several local thrift stores as well as a Salvation Army.

Take the girls to a Thrift Shop and have them pick out interesting shirts, skirts, shoes, jackets, etc. for cheap prices! Then, bring all of the clothes to your next meeting and completely redesign them! Go to your local craft store and go to the sale section-buy tons of crazy ribbons, sequins, buttons, scarves, fabric paint, glitter, rick-rack-anything!

This is probably a better activity for older girls in middle school or high school. Teach the girls different sewing stitches and let them create their own fashions!

This can be tons of fun and is a super creative way to bond! Afterwards, have a fashion show and let everyone show off their new styles!

Hope you enjoy my suggestions and ideas!
Have an awesome week!
