Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day on the Cheap with Used Clothing & More!
Planning a fun evening for St. Patrick’s Day this year? Seems like plans always fall into place last minute for holidays like this one, especially since it falls on a weekday this year. If you find yourself in need of some festive and inexpensive clothing and accessories, why not dress for the holiday on the cheap with used clothing from the Arc Store?
At the Arc Store, you’ll undoubtedly find used clothing items and incidentals you never even thought of putting together. You’d be amazed at how many crazy green plaid things you can find to pair with your favorite jeans. Actually, you’d be amazed how many green things there are, period. And orange, too!
Put together the perfect outfit
We have green and orange shoes to pair with a cute little skirt, jacket, Fighting Irish team sweatshirt, and lots of cheap clothing for kids so they can show off their Irish pride as well. Maybe you prefer an authentic look with tweeds and cable knit sweaters at a fraction of the price you’d pay for new? You can also find hair ornaments, scarves, hats, and jewelry, all for the fun day.
Plan a party at home
Maybe you are not actually going to get out for the evening this year. Got kids? It’s Tuesday night, so chances are they have homework, and you have to work the next day too. Party at home instead. Used clothing stores like the Arc Store often have other donated items for sale. Find green dishes for your corned beef and cabbage or use vintage mugs for mom and dad’s Irish Coffee.
A mid-century orange vase for some Irish heather would really dress up the everyday dining area in your home and add just a little something festive – on the cheap and quick – for the holiday (and you and hubby can always celebrate on Saturday, when the sitter is available)! Why not also bring home a few books for your kids to spark an interest in the history, legends, art, poetry and music, geography or famous people of Ireland?
Put it all to music
Music is a truly integral part of any St. Patrick’s Day celebration! Pick up a few traditional Irish recordings at the Arc Store where you picked up all that great used clothing and decorative holiday tableware, and turn any evening into a true Irish party! Remember, you never have to wait for St. Paddy’s Day to celebrate like the Irish, and you definitely don’t have to spend the pot o’ gold when you dress up yourself, your loved ones, and your space for the holiday on the cheap with used clothing and accessories from the Arc Store.
