There is an exhilarating rush that comes from thrifting furniture and homewares. Whether you find a chair that completes an existing set or an original French porcelain piece for hardly anything, it's a satisfying way to adorn your home with plenty of character. But is there a line between treasure and trash?
It's easy to get caught up in the emotion of thrifting — taking home something that caught your eye, only later to find it's actually scratched beyond repair. Trust me, I've had many a fight with the devil on my shoulder while deliberating over a piece of vintage furniture. Knowing how to thrift well comes with practice, time, and patience.
