Q&A with Becky

What sparked your interest in exploring antique and charity shops for unique finds?

When we moved into our Edwardian home I immediately starting looking around charity shops to find old vintage pieces that would fit well in our home.

What particular items do you find yourself irresistibly drawn to when shopping secondhand?

My eyes are always on the lookout for exquisite vases and captivating oil paintings. There's a thrill in discovering these treasures, and I've stumbled upon some remarkable pieces in my vintage adventures.

Can you recall a favorite discovery from one of your thrifting expeditions that holds a special place in your heart?

One cherished memory revolves around a framed piece of Chinese art found in a quaint antique shop in Essex. It's a testament to the unexpected beauty these shops can hold, adding a touch of mystery and history to my collection.

For newcomers venturing into secondhand shopping, do you have any advice to share?

To those embarking on this delightful journey, I say, follow your instincts. Antique and charity shops are treasure troves of unique items waiting to be discovered. Seek out pieces that resonate with your heart, and your space will transform into a haven that mirrors your passion and style. Happy hunting!
