A thrift store is a truly wonderful place for sustainable fashion enthusiasts and those looking to broaden their fashion horizons with some unique clothing pieces. Though if you've ever been to one, you probably know how bizarre they sometimes tend to get.

People following this one Instagram account called thriftstoreart know this quite well. The account we're talking about is purely dedicated to all kinds of weird and questionable art objects found at thrift stores, and it currently has over 6,000 posts and more than 183,000 followers. Yes, this account is pretty popular, and we're not surprised about it at all.

Approximately half a year ago, we published an article highlighting some of the most bizarre thrift store finds shared on the account, but since then, a lot has happened and a lot more questionable items happened to be discovered. With that being said, we invite you to look through an updated list of some of the weirdest art objects ever found in thrift stores.

I love how the earrings are just pierced through the side of her head. Yup. That's what I'm going to focus on. The earrings. Nothing below the earrings to see. Nope, not a thing.

I once worked in a sex shop (don't ask! Times were hard!) and we sold them. Cheep and gross, which is what most of that kind of stuff is. And no, there is no cloth panel separating assorted junk.

I don't know if the inclusion of the panel between the couple makes this more or less horrible.

I thought it was undies for TV, which would have been an even weirder concept.

Say I wanted to buy these crazy men's pink halloween undies for two (i was even more confused until I realised it didn't say "for tv"). But how do you pick a size? LOL is it XL for one? For both?

Why? It's ugly and there's not much that could be done with these stupid undies.

This is actually from a Guam myth, a fisherman finds a small statue of mary and gives her to the church and when a random guy starts to clean her she bleeds, so they call the fisherman to clean her and she doesn't bleed anymore. (sorry if this is incorrect, it's been awhile since I've read it)

"wheres the beef?" was a thing wendys used to have commercials for and their catchphrase and stuff because on most burgers the meat patty was smaller than the bun so their thing was that they had square patties so you could always see the beef sticking out of the bun. (i know some of you will already know this but for those of u that dont theres a random fact)

Unfortunately this is realty for many in the USA. Sub primes have made so many homeless. Covid 19 lost of jobs, medical care, bills, have driven many to live in their car or whatever. So sad that such a great country can't look after it's citizens who are in dire straits.

Bottom left isn't really all that bad. ~~ Bottom middle looks like he just farted in a packed car and he's the one controlling the windows.

I really don't see any kind of connection between the biblical Jesus and Trump. He is the antithesis of his teachings.
