How do I use secondhand finds for DIY home decor?

Use secondhand finds to add character affordably by hunting Facebook Marketplace, Goodwill, garage, and estate sales for furniture like coffee tables, rugs, and bookshelves. Carefully restore or repaint to match your desired palette. Repurpose pieces rather than buying new for sustainable decorating. This practice enriches your space with unique stories and complements layered trim or built-ins while staying budget-friendly.
