It’s the first week of 2026 and that meant one thing, I had to go thrifting! The beginning of the year means lots of people are cleaning out their homes and purging. Which means, if you’re a thrifter, it’s time to make someone else’s trash your treasure! Now, as much as I love to thrift I also love to purge. So, I dropped off a truck full to Goodwill and then went in to shop!
What a great decision it was! The shelves were full and I found some awesome things.
I felt like all of these items were made for me! I had recently re-done our bonus room and needed a few more accessories. The pillows were thrown in the wash and I cleaned everything else up and got ready to decorate!
First up was this straw wreath (which was $1.99!). I added some ribbon and pom Pom trim and hung it on the entry door. Remember, a wreath isn’t just for a front door!
Next was this adorable breakfast tray! Since the room is where we watch tv and hang out it will be perfect for snacks or drinks. I added a couple of books and a candle for now. I also put the candle on the vintage plate I found.
Next…pillows! You can never have enough pillows, and for $1.99 each these were immediately in my cart!
I found these mini gold frames in a box, unlabeled. I think they may be ornaments but I decided to use them in a different way. I hung a piece of art that was a great aunt’s and then cut some paper from an art exhibition I had went to and put it in the frames. I love how mini and cute they are!
I had thrifted a lamp a few weeks ago and spray painted it rose gold. I added it to my tv stand with some other thrifted pieces. It adds the perfect ambient lighting.
This cute leaf print frame looks perfect on my side table!
When I started redesigning this room I was determined to do it on a budget. I sold our old couches and found this sectional on Amazon! I then spray painted old frames and added art I found on SHEIN. I moved things around from other parts of my house, too. I had a friend give me a desk she didn’t want and my mom thrifted the clear acrylic desk chair! I am proud of getting the look I wanted on a budget!
So, here’s your reminder to check out the thrift store when redecorating!
