Welcome to the Exciting World of Thrifting & Frugal Living!

Get ready to embark on a journey filled with unique finds, great deals, and most importantly, loads of fun!

Hi there, I'm Maria, but my absolute favorite people know me as Mimi 💖 I'm the creative force behind Chola Vintage, where I passionately rehome all things vintage, second hand, recycled, and repurposed! 🌟 My days are filled with exciting treasure hunts at yard sales, thrift stores, and flea markets. I'm always on the move, exploring new places and mapping out all the hidden gems along the way! 🌺

"Treasure" in my family refers to items that bring joy, evoke smiles, or

find a new home via resale.

I discovered the world of second-hand first as a single mother when it was a necessity, and now it's just a way of life. Thrifting has expanded beyond second-hand goods to discount grocery shopping and finding freebies for things to do, products, and services. I'm always looking for ways to save money in every aspect of my life. If I can do it, you can do it too! 🌟

Exploring thrift stores for hidden gems is a passion of mine, and I take great joy in transforming my home with these unique finds. With each remodel and redecoration, my house evolves into a vibrant reflection of my ever-changing style. Just like my life, my home is a captivating work in progress that never fails to inspire me. ✨

I absolutely adore how my found objects come to life with fascinating stories! Each piece carries a unique tale, be it the rich history shared by its previous owner or a hilarious anecdote about how it found its way to me. 😊 Have you ever stumbled upon a thrifted gem with an intriguing story behind it? I'm all ears and eager to hear your exciting finds! 🌟
