Changing Hands is an appropriate name for this place. In the past several months it has been a church (Tabernacle something or other), a rental store (where one could rent just about anything), and now in its latest incarnation, a thrift shop.

What a great name!
I like this photo because of all the different signs and messages. I know the place looks a little tawdry but you'll never know what you'll find there.
I predict it will be a tattoo parlor next . . . .
Next, the Jacob and Lois Anne Photography Superstore. Your one stop shopping center. Has sort of a ring to it. :-)
It might make it as a thrift shop with the way the economy is right now. Besides people looking for bargains, other might be looking to sell stuff that they wouldn't have bothered doing before.
From a church to a thrift store??? You wouldn't see that in France :-)))) I like the idea that things can change so much and so fast.
Good one :)
Nice Shot Jacob !! But Why the Church was closed ?Unseen Rajasthan
Ah, the subject of reincarnation. Very interesting. A thrift shop I suppose is what characterises the times best.
Very appropriate. 'Spiraling down' could be another choice...
beautifully framed and shot!
Often 'thrift shop' is the last stop on a shop's journey of usefulness. But I love going into these places, don't you?
it's a bit of a sad looking building isn't it
@ Brattcat - Yes, it's serendipity...you never know you'll find of interest or value...
@ Dianne - Very sad. In a tough neighborhood.
@ Unseen - I have no clue!
Aptly named! Cool!
God bless you!

@ Don & Krise - I kinda like that! Nah...sounds like too much work. Retirement is in my bones. I'd rather wander around and take photos!
You could come down here and set it up, though. I could work for you part-time?
Given its history, its name is very apropos!
Those little storefronts change hands so quickly nowadays. I hope this one hangs on for awhile. MB
great old joint. But the thrift shop is here to stay..
"Changing Hands", what a great name for a thrift store. Colorful photo too.
I love these places. Unfortunately, the rent is so high in Boston that we no longer have such curiousity shops.
Nice one! This place is where 'multi-purpose' gets a different meaning.
This is very interesting! It doesn't look like a shops in the US to me.
I'm with Leif, a tattoo parlor any day now or wait..... a tanning bed? Oh I forgot, you're Florida, no need for that. Well whatever, changing hands it will be over and over I'm afraid.

I like that name! Hopefully, the church found a more suitable buidling? We have had SO many thrift stores open up shop around here lately, I was just about to do a post about it. I know they won't all survive...too many!
Speaking of thrifty, I have a new toy! Come see! :)
I hope this is the last change for a while.
Could have used a little paint job before the opening!
Hmm Perfect Name there! Lets see whom does the place suit the best! :-)

I am drawn to thrift shops like a wasp to a soft drink. I cannot pass one by, and would definitely drop in here.
At least it's being used and not boarded up and abandoned.
Well, I wish the thift shop luck, interesting capture. (I like thrift shops).
