Forest and Found – The Art of Charitable Thrift

Nicely curated items in this fabulous resale shop. Their creative displays serve as a source of design inspiration. I have found so many wonderful things here. This shop is one of my favorite resale shops in the Chicago area.

What would you expect from a thrift store in one of the best zipcodes in the country? Veeery interesting stuff at veeery interesting prices.
I bought a $ 250 Hermes tie for $ 20. There are cool housewares and funky stuff tucked in the corners. It’s really quite the place.
Parking is great, too. On street right in front of the store.
The two charities they support are excellent choices, so your money will go in the right direction. They are a non-​profit, so any donations are deductible.
The inventory is well-​culled so things you get are in great shape, clean and working, typically. This also means that if you THINK you want something, get it as once it’s gone there aren’t anymore. The good news is you don’t have to dig through dirt to find the diamonds.

Great place for donation and fun shopping. More vintage in decoration and goods. Love it

If you need some lightly used designer type things, this is the best place to go. It is located on Western Avenue about ½ mile north of the Market Square. We love the decoration theme, rustic industrial look. The proceeds from this shop go to some worthy charities. We are returning to offer some donations that I understand will qualify as a tax deductible gift.
