Edmonds people have usually acknowledged that some of the finest thrift searching about is at the Edmonds Senior Middle Thrift Shop. What far better way to showcase the store’s offerings than at a Saturday manner exhibit, with proceeds benefiting the Edmonds Waterfront Center’s senior lunch program for people who battle with food items insecurity.
The show featured 12 designs comprised of Waterfront Middle board members, employees and volunteers. They scoured the thrift keep racks to assemble an array of striking ensembles, running the gamut from relaxed to formal, enjoyable to amazing, bewitching to amazing.
A standing-home-only crowd of style-savvy (and spending budget-mindful) attendees gathered at the Waterfront Center’s upstairs multipurpose area, all primed to see how to put alongside one another an eye-catching search without having breaking the bank.
And they weren’t dissatisfied.
With running commentary by Mary Lewis, attendees saw a number of ensembles — many with designer labels, some even brand name new with primary tags. Each and every outfit highlighted coordinating footwear, jewellery, clutch baggage and accessories to full the glance.
In addition to describing every ensemble, Lewis added price tag information, underscoring how the Edmonds Senior Centre Thrift Retail outlet can give you a good glimpse for a evening on the city and still go away sufficient transform in your pocket for meal and a clearly show.
Just after the exhibit, all garments and components have been presented for sale, and there was really a rush at the tables and hanging racks as attendees scrambled to grab their favorites.
This was only the 2nd Edmonds Senior Heart Thrift Retail store fashion clearly show. The first was following the keep moved to its Westgate location from the previous Edmonds Senior Centre, which was demolished to develop the new intergenerational Waterfront Heart. Centered on Saturday’s response, it won’t be the very last.
The thrift retail store is open up Monday as a result of Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. (closed Sunday). It is located up coming to the Westgate QFC at 22820 100th Ave. W. and features each day specials where the already-very low selling prices are cut even further.
