47 // 10 Things that are ALWAYS on my list when I’m shopping at thrift stores and what to do with them once you get them home

So...we decided to follow the trend of DITCHING the cheap replicas and bringing in the GOOD OLD STUFF! We know we can find it thrifting, but how do you actually find the good stuff? 

 

It starts with identifying and understanding your aesthetic (you can listen to the episode about that here: https://figandfarmathome.podbean.com/e/7/). Once you have your home style identified keeping an eye out for home decor items with your aesthetic will help you be most successful so you can bring home the treasures! 

 

In today's episode I share with you my top 10 items that are always on my list when I go thrifting. Use these as a guide for the next time you go and be sure to tag me on Instagram @figandfarm or post in the Facebook Group (https://bit.ly/design101group).

 

And...what DO you do with the second hand furniture you brought home? You loved it when you saw it in the store, but now you see all the flaws. These 6 things are the most common ailments I find in second hand furniture, but don't worry...I don't leave you with the ailment, I teach you how to fix it too. Need help?
