The member volunteers at Assistance® League Thrift Shop, located next to the Park Theater in Lafayette, invite you to its Repurpose Décor Event scheduled to begin Tuesday, April 23, 2024, at 10 am. Prices will range from $2.00 to $25.00.

Do your part to rescue items that might have a chip, crack, rust or tarnish smear that requires a touch-up. Envision a Tiffany vase filled with flowers and ferns used to conceal a minor flaw. An ornate shelf bracket could be mounted on a garden gate. Let previously used china serve as steppingstones that welcome you to your garden.

Likewise, an assortment of metal watering cans, wooden bottle holders, ornate planters, twig wreaths and driftwood will also spark your creativity. Please note that a half-price sale of inventory not previously sold is scheduled to begin Tuesday, April 30, 2024.
