The Dump - Vol. 20
An end of the month round-up of the finest secondhand (60ish!) things from around the internet
Welcome to the end of the month (finally, January is ending!!) edition of “The Dump” — a roundup of curated vintage, secondhand, or handmade things I have bookmarked from around the internet that are looking for a new place to call home. No essays — just a collection of items I’ve come across in my treasure hunting adventures. Prices vary from affordable to luxury but this month, everything featured is under $300!
Swoop up the riches, share it with your friends, let it inspire a secondhand hunt of your own and join in on saving something from ending up in “the dump.”
Have you purchased something through seeing it on Trash Panic? Reply to this newsletter (or DM) and send me a photo of you wearing it/how you’ve styled it/where it lives in your home/etc I would love to see!
If you make a purchase through a link, I might earn a commission, which I appreciate as it helps fund this space. Plus, a reminder that a portion of paid subscriptions and affiliate links this month will go towards donations to Los Angeles fire GoFundMe pages that have not yet reached their goals. As always, linking things makes my brain hurt, so please let me know if anything isn’t linked correctly!
