Garage sale and thrift store furniture bargains abound. The toy ice cream table and chairs from my Mom’s childhood have an iron frame, which I stripped and spray painted. It had way too many coats of paint on it to ever be pretty again otherwise. photo by: The post Used Furniture – Re-purpose, Recycle, Re-use.

We do put up decorations (ones I buy at garage sales or thrift stores and reuse each year). Tip # 2 Recycle/reuse costumes. Dad’s old cowboy hat and a rope from the garage can be the start of a cowboy get up. What do you do to recycle/reuse on Halloween? No kids = no parties or haunted houses = money saved.

While we understand that many property owners do not allow tenants to paint with the latest trending colors, it is still possible to add some spice and texture to your home. You can visit garage sales, local flea markets and scratch and dent stores to locate used furniture that needs to be refurbished.
