Disclosure and Privacy Policy

Disclosure

This stuff all sounds so serious and unfriendly (i.e., the antithesis of ME), but I gotta have it on here to make sure my site is legit!

But in my own words, here's what I'm trying to say: I am just an easily-distractable, thrifting, crafting, rearranging, money-saving weirdo. I do a lot of projects. I like making stuff look pretty. And after I 'paused' my carreer to raise my 4 kids, I needed a new venture, so I started the blog. All I want to do is give people ideas about how they can make stuff look pretty, too. I have no special training, and I make tons of mistakes. I encourage you to try my projects, but please use your common sense, and don't take something on if you're not comfortable with it.

Now down to business:

This blog is a personal blog written and edited by me. For questions about this blog, please contact  Kristen at Thrifter in Disguise dot com.

This blog accepts forms of cash advertising, sponsorship, paid insertions or other forms of compensation.

The compensation received will never influence the content, topics or posts made in this blog. All advertising is in the form of advertisements generated by a third party ad network. Those advertisements will be identified as paid advertisements.

The owner(s) of this blog is compensated to provide opinion on products, services, websites and various other topics. Even though the owner(s) of this blog receives compensation for our posts or advertisements, we always give our honest opinions, findings, beliefs, or experiences on those topics or products. The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely the bloggers' own. Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer, provider or party in question.

I also participate in the Amazon Services Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program that helps bloggers like me earn a small amount of money (trust me, I'm not getting rich on this) by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. In most cases, I'm suggesting those links as products that are similar to the one I used, but I can't guarantee anything about them. I'm providing them in an effort to be convenient for the reader, but I do want to be clear that if you make a purchase through the links, I will receive compensation.

This blog does not contain any content which might present a conflict of interest.
