      Habitat for Humanity restores are gold. Most of my furniture is from there. They have pretty high standards for the stuff they take.

      Where I live I can pick up amazing stuff for free from recycling stations all over the city. Incredible old items keep popping up there more or less every day as people get rid of their old solid wood furniture in order to replace it with something more fashionable from IKEA.

      Almost all my furniture is from thrift stores. It’s all old stuff that is made better and looks better.
