I love to restyle rooms in my home and do so often. One of the reasons I can style a shelf or a coffee table when I’m in the mood is because I have continually collected decor items that pique my interest. When I’m shopping, I tend to look for pieces that have unique textures and interesting shapes, pieces that make a statement, and pieces that have a great personality. If it catches my eye, I pick it up.
Sometimes it’s a handmade clay sculpture someone made in high school that landed in Goodwill. Other times it’s a precious antique that reminds me of my grandmother. These are the items that are unique to your experience and that make a space YOURS. Not only does it take time to build a collection of these unique home decor products, but it also sometimes requires extra room in the budget.
This post is for anyone who’s interested in adding a couple of unique pieces to their home while sticking to a budget in the process!
