8 Decor Items That Interior Designers Secretly Thrift
"Thrift shops are like treasure troves full of secondhand home decor items that can add personality and flair to your space. Whether you're looking to create a stunning dinner party tablescape or want to find unique decorative pieces that elevate your bookshelf in a way that feels like an extension of your personal style, you can find some of the best home decor items at these stores."
"When browsing the aisles of your local thrift store, Mimi Meacham, the founder and principal designer at Marian Louise Designs, says to hunt for vases. "Vases can be used to display flowers or alone and the unique finds [at a thrift store] are the best," she explains. Thrift stores are usually stocked with old vases in a variety of designs, making finding options that match your style and home decor easy."
"Brand-new sets of silverware can get expensive, which is why Meacham says to look out for authentic silverware at thrift stores, which not only looks nice on a tablescape, but also creates conversation during dinner parties. "I love to collect a mixed-and-matched set, and guests usually love to compare the silverware they received with the ones other guests received," she notes."
Thrift shops offer plentiful secondhand home decor that adds personality and flair to living spaces and tablescapes. Vases provide versatile decor, functioning as flower vessels or standalone sculptural pieces, and thrift stores often carry a wide variety of designs. Authentic silverware at thrift stores can be affordable; mixed-and-matched sets enliven tables and spark guest conversation, and tarnished silver often regains luster after polishing. Ornate or gold picture frames can be found for less than new frames, providing high-impact decorative accents. Knowing what to look for—vases, silverware, frames—helps shoppers efficiently find pieces that elevate their homes.
