When it comes to thrifting, I'll scan the home decor shelves long before I stop to consider the outdoor pieces on offer. My head instantly turns at the sight of a vintage vase, a charming print, or even a piece of ornate glassware. However, summer's imminent arrival has meant that timeless outdoor accessories like vintage furniture sets, rustic urns, and antique pendants have been cropping up everywhere, making me entirely rethink my garden design for the better.
While you might think that thrift stores, flea markets, and estate sales are the answer to a one-of-a-kind interior, you can give your garden a similar dose of charm and character by decorating with vintage. I spoke to design experts who say that outdoor decor and furniture is one of the key things you should always thrift. They love to source second-hand pieces for their backyard projects, and they suggested an array of elegant accessories that will ensure your design is equally as eclectic as your interior.
