Do you love to repurpose items, or find ways to upcycle things that others would throw away?
Would you like to raise money to help the fight against domestic violence?
Then sign up today for My Sister’s Place Thrift Store and Donation Center’s (MSP) Flea Market Flip!
MSP’s Flea Market Flip is a fun, creative twist on recycling or upcycling similar to the HGTV show with the same name, Flea Market Flip. Proceeds from the sale of each flip item will benefit The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services.
Individual participants or teams of two must purchase their flip item(s) at MSP for $25 or less between September 12 and 25. Registration forms are available at the store and must be completed at the time of purchase. No more than $50 may be spent on repurposing/upcycling the item(s). Receipts must be shown when submitting the repurposed item.
All flips must be delivered to MSP by October 2. The items will be on display in the front window from October 3 through 9. Customers can vote for the favorite flip through October 12. A silent auction will be held on Thursday, October 13 from 5:00 – 6:30 pm at the store. The auction is open to the public.
The item that receives the highest bid and the item with the most votes win. The two winners will be announced at 6:45 pm on October 13. Any item not sold during the silent auction will be sold in the store. All proceeds from the sale of the flip items will benefit The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services.

MSP, a program of BHcare, offers quality new and gently used clothing, furniture and house wares at discount prices. All proceeds from MSP support BHcare’s The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services (UCDVS). Each year UCDVS helps more than 5,000 adults and children who are experiencing domestic violence; all services are provided free of charge.
