Where Do I Get My Skirts? Frugal Tips, Life in a Tiny House called Fy Nyth

A question I've been asked frequently, where do I get my skirts from?
***********↓ Click Show More For More Info! ↓***********

Real life here. I try to show the good and the bad. The ups and the downs. What works, and what doesn't. The parts I love (most of it!), and the things that suck. Not just the showroom version of a tiny house, but everyday life in a tiny house. Not just the romantic idea of "homesteading" or off grid life, but the everyday details of this lifestyle. We split wood for heat, fill the water tank from a gravity fed spring, and attempt to grow as much of our own food as possible between the weather and wildlife here. I hope to help others learn from mistakes and make life just a little easier for anyone else interested in pursuing a similar lifestyle.

I very much appreciate that you're giving perfectly good clothing a second chance (and saving money)...being a "thrifter" is a GOOD thing :)

Thrift stores are my favorite!!! It's like an adventure and a reward all in one when you find the perfect thing!

Love thrifting! I was raised by a Depression era Mom, who taught us to reuse, repurpose, and recycle. Love refinishing old furniture too!

"Your body is a temple"...have not heard that since my mumma used to say it to me! Thanks for the video and the peak at Burley. He seems to be doing well.

I KNEW we were kindred spirits.. I ALSO hate ironing!!😂 Great video. Loved hearing Burly chime in.. 🫶😂

The short skirt style you like is called .. A-Line skirt. I have made a lot of this type.

I wish more folks would buy second hand but then someone has to buy the original to make it that way. LOL I'm generally not a skirt person myself but I do like the ones you wear.

I purchase my clothing from thrift stores too...our animal shelter has a thrift store and I buy clothing from there too. I agree, there are so many perfectly good clothing items at thrift stores; no need to buy new, except like you said, undergarments and socks. Thanks!😊❤

I've always liked your clothing style. 🙂 Excellent info regarding the difference in fabrics and how to tell. Our skin is our biggest organ, so very important what we put against it.

I love your modeling style! ha ha! Thanks Ariel. I'm just like you. Only natural fibers and solids. :)

It is really nice to see you and Cliff together at the end of the video. You exude love for each other. It warms my heart that you have found each other.🙏❤

Not only feel good, you also look good, Ariel!

You just go girl. Almost everything I buy is thrift store. My sox are however smartwool. Love the stuff from thrift stores.... Womens clothing is either too expensive or no longer functional or modest.

Going to a thrift store is on my to-do list. January 2020 I started a no-spend challenge which included buying clothes. I’m a repairer of clothes, darner of socks. I don’t like wearing clothes that have brand names plastered on them either. My shirts usually say “kindness matters”, “love”, & “breathe”. Classic hippie style. Thanks for sharing this with us Ariel!!

[margaretpollard]

Ariel, you are right...the best place to shop are the thrift shops! 🤭 Very economical & I've always found good quality items at very reasonable prices. Thanks for the video. I hope Burley is doing good & on to a full recovery. He sure is a wonderful dog. Give him hugs from me & my big boy Amos! Shalom!

Sensible. A few years ago I decided to do what ladies used to do way back in the day: wear housedresses. Found some simple cotton sundresses. They're great. I wear them with leggings and cardigans when it is cold (not much cold here in the South). I bundle my hair up in a scrunchie and I'm good for the least I was until recently when my neighbor came by and started laughing at me. She said I looked like Kathy Najimi in Hocus Pocus. Oh my. 😮‍💨

Thanks for the tips Ariel! I used to get almost all my clothes from thrift stores, but I have chemical sensitivities & can't handle the scented laundry products. Stink bomb (a brand) works great to get the scent out of natural fibres, if other people have the same problem. I use soap nuts to do my laundry. Love all your vids!

Linen: hang it up wet and it will iron itself dry! And it cools in summer and warms in winter. It is also slightly anti-bacterial. Hence brilliant as innermost layer in all weather. (Tried and tested for centuries in Europe 😂)

I love thrifting! You always look nice and neat😊

[souphunsaker]

You are just so real. Love that about you and your channel. I'm a thrift store girl myself and it's amazing. ❤️ keep this up. Love it
