A Guide to Secondhand Shopping
“It all started with that first box of hand-me-downs from the wealthy side of the family in Ft. Worth,” says Charlotte Freeborn of her love of secondhand shopping. You will learn some great tips and places to shop, hear some fun stories about her experiences, and see some of her great finds. She'll cover garage sales to online second-hand. If you have never second-hand shopped or if you're experienced, you're sure have a good time in this course.
Charlotte Freeborn was born in Dallas and grew up in Longview, Texas and Albuquerque, New Mexico. She attended Hill College in Hillsboro, Texas and received her bachelor's degree from the University of North Texas and master's from Perkins at SMU.
