Hey Ya'll!
Today I have a special post to share! Ya'll know how I looooooooove op shopping (translation - thrift shopping) So I wanted to share one of my favourite shops in the Hawke's Bay. It's where I have gotten pretty much all of my designer pieces and I adore them. So without farther ado...
Threads!!!
Threads was established in the end of April 2015 at 110 Karamu Road North just down from ANZ bank and next to Stanton Print. Stanton Print actually divided up part of their factory space to make room for it. Originally Threads was an online venture, however due to the outpouring of donations they opened up a physical store. One of my favourite parts of this op shop is that it runs on donations from about 7 churches across the North Island of New Zealand. I love the variety you get from the different regions! Another very awesome thing about this shop is all the profits go to support missions work. I love that! New Zealand has a small Christian population and I love that Threads helps to support the Gospel being spread. Threads also supports Veronicas Place.
Threads operates with 5 volunteer staff who are super awesome and helpful. The shop is well organised, neat, and clean. All the clothes are pre washed so you don't have "that" op shop smell (all you op shoppers know what I am talking about).
I also wanted to give a quick shout out to Sheep Knits. My friend is the owner and is the one who taught me to knit. So yeah she is pretty awesome in my book. If you get a chance pop into Threads and buy her amazing work :)
