I'll start by saying that I love the idea. There's something about thrift stores that give a creepy vibe - creepy but colorful.

I see that this story is complete, but I would love to see you expand on some things. You have such an imaginative start here, I can see this easily evolving to something wonderous - while still staying short.

Advice I have would be to show and not tell. Instead of telling us what the girl experienced, make us experience it too.

Keep writing.

Perhaps dreams are an extension of reality. I liked this story it was well written with a nice charm to it.
