⭐️Thrift Tip Tuesday⭐️
If you’re out hunting for the “real deal” when it comes to home decor and glassware, two handy thing to have with you are a small magnet and a coin. You can check items you believe might be copper, silver, or brass by doing a magnet test. If the magnet sticks- then that ain’t it! Real pieces will not stick to magnets.
In addition using a coin (or fingernail) to gently tap on glassware can tell you a lot. A long, clear ringing tone indicates crystal, while a dull sound tells you it’s just pretty glass. But what makes you happy, but it’s good to be aware of what you’re paying for!
❤️Happy Thrifting!❤️
