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!
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteI predict it will be a tattoo parlor next . . . .
ReplyDeleteNext, the Jacob and Lois Anne Photography Superstore. Your one stop shopping center. Has sort of a ring to it. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt 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.
ReplyDeleteFrom 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.
ReplyDeleteGood one :)
ReplyDeleteNice Shot Jacob !! But Why the Church was closed ?Unseen Rajasthan
ReplyDeleteAh, the subject of reincarnation. Very interesting. A thrift shop I suppose is what characterises the times best.
ReplyDeleteVery appropriate. 'Spiraling down' could be another choice...
ReplyDeletebeautifully framed and shot!
ReplyDeleteOften 'thrift shop' is the last stop on a shop's journey of usefulness. But I love going into these places, don't you?
ReplyDeleteit's a bit of a sad looking building isn't it
ReplyDelete@ Brattcat - Yes, it's serendipity...you never know you'll find of interest or value...
ReplyDelete@ Dianne - Very sad. In a tough neighborhood.
@ Unseen - I have no clue!
ReplyDeleteAptly named! Cool!
ReplyDeleteGod 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!
ReplyDeleteYou could come down here and set it up, though. I could work for you part-time?
Given its history, its name is very apropos!
ReplyDeleteThose little storefronts change hands so quickly nowadays. I hope this one hangs on for awhile. MB
ReplyDeletegreat old joint. But the thrift shop is here to stay..
ReplyDelete"Changing Hands", what a great name for a thrift store. Colorful photo too.
ReplyDeleteI love these places. Unfortunately, the rent is so high in Boston that we no longer have such curiousity shops.
ReplyDeleteNice one! This place is where 'multi-purpose' gets a different meaning.
ReplyDeleteThis is very interesting! It doesn't look like a shops in the US to me.
ReplyDeleteI'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!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of thrifty, I have a new toy! Come see! :)
I hope this is the last change for a while.
ReplyDeleteCould have used a little paint job before the opening!
ReplyDeleteHmm 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.
ReplyDeleteAt least it's being used and not boarded up and abandoned.
ReplyDeleteWell, I wish the thift shop luck, interesting capture. (I like thrift shops).
