6 Thrift Store Finds Designers Wish People Would Stop BuyingDecorating
Whether you’re aiming to decorate your home on a budget or shop more sustainably, I always advocate for a trip to your local thrift store. Buying home decor secondhand is often more cost-effective than buying new.

Adding personality to your home — even if it’s a rented apartment — is easier than you think. A lot of it comes down to how you decorate to reflect your style. If you want to add a little more character, you can even give your rented space a renovated look with reversible projects, like installing peel-and-stick wallpaper, vinyl tile stickers, and faux wall panel molding. Lighting is also a way to give your space a major refresh quickly. Because, guess what?
