FACEBOOK MARKETPLACE LUCKY FINDS

June 21, 2020

One of the best feelings when updating your home is when you can incorporate pieces that you found for a steal! I always search Facebook marketplace and I have gotten pretty lucky so far. I pretty much look daily just for fun and I usually come across must-have pieces from time to time. The good stuff tends to be further away from the cities (maybe nobody wants to drive out so far?) but being cooped up in the house so much lately, we don't mind a little road trip. Here's a fun little list of my favorite treasures that I've found.

Crystal Drum Chandelier
When I was searching for a new light while updating my bedroom, I knew I wanted a crystal chandelier. I actually found one almost identical on Wayfair for around $500 that I was going to buy but then THIS beauty popped up while searching on FB for only $100! At the time, I thought it was the same one as the Wayfair one but after further inspection.. I discovered it to be the Pottery Barn Adeline Crystal Chandelier (here) which retails for $1300. I basically got this for free. I honestly couldn't believe my luck. It's the most beautiful light. My fiancé drove 4 hours but I think we can all agree, it was well worth it!

3-Tiered Crystal Chandelier
Clearly, I have a special spot in my heart for crystal light fixtures. The beveled glass looks so beautiful and classic! It can make even a playroom look fancy. This one is sold out online, but I managed to score it for $90.

Italian Black Marble Table Lamp
This one is one of my favorite finds of all time! I got this black marble lamp for a whopping $5! The original owner said she was going to throw it out. All it needed was a new lampshade. This thing is solid marble and extremely heavy! After doing some digging, I discovered that this is a piece from designer T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings and sells for $4,500 online!!! What the what?!?!!? I almost feel bad for buying it for $5. Haha

Antique Brass Marble Side Table 
This one was intended to be used for the playroom remodel, but I loved it so much that I wanted it in the main living room. I felt like it belonged there! I scored this baby for $20

CB2 Rouka Chair
I've had my eye on this beautiful, velvety chair for awhile. I didn't know I needed it until I redesigned my makeup vanity desk. The gold steel frame is more of a bronze/copper finish. It pairs well with my canopy bed! Anyway, I stumbled upon this chair a couple times on FB Marketplace and I couldn't pass up on it anymore. 

Gold Accent Chairs
We took another little road trip for these two. I knew I wanted a couple accent chairs that were simple and modern. The shape of the frame was just what I envisioned for this space. It originally had blue-gray upholstery but I changed it to fit my needs. I scored each of these for $150 each

There are tons more that I could share, but I'll leave this post specifically for my favorite finds as of today. What are some of your best thrifty finds you've scored? Leave me a message.. I'd love to hear!

I've been keeping a big secret around here for quite some time now.. and I'm so proud to finally share. I designed my very own curtain collection alongside my amazing partners, TwoPages . 15% off discount code: SARALE This is something I never would have imagined coming into existence but now that it's here, it all makes sense. This line of custom printed curtains is absolutely beautiful. 3 stunning patterns, 17 colors. It's incredibly hard to choose a favorite! I've worked so hard on this line to make sure everything is perfect. From the patterns to the scale, the colors and the names. There's a curtain that fits every season, style and vibe. These are custom linen blend curtains, made to fit perfectly in length and width to each window. The patterns are printed on the fronts with solid white backs. There are various header styles such as the popular pinch pleated, triple pleated, tailor pleated, etc. Photographed below are all unlined and body memory shaped. I hope you enjoy what I've been pouring my heart into.
