Hello - my name is Taina and I am he person behind Tainaleevintage. I am so proud to announce this out loud.I have been through so many angles in my life that I finally feel like I am home. I do not know exactly when, but it feels like years ago that I have been thrifting.

I could not be any prouder to say that I am a Thrifter and Upcycler. Many times, I will take a thrifted find and upcycle it, providing a new life for that piece. That is my second love - Designing. I am an Interior Designer and have been for the last 40 years.

I welcome everyone on this journey of Thrifting - even babies held in their mothers or father while thrifting. If for no other reason , the smell of Goodwill's should cause for an immediate joyful reaction. For those of you who do not thrift, I am telling you that you are missing out on a million dollar industry. So why don't you want to get on board. 

This will help. Thrifted pieces are found in every corner of our country. There are finds sometimes in the most unexpected places. Remember that someone thought your find to be junk. This is your opportunity to leave your thrift find as a single piece, or combined with other finds to create smothing beautiful and captures the essence of all the parts combined. The results are endless, only regulated by your intuitiveness, imagination and desire to Create one-of-a-kind finds.
