SugarMamma’s Fireplay Vogue Style, Bunnings Budget - Rachel's Boutique Zero Waste Investment Property
Here are some of Rachel's top tips for treasure hunting using the circular economy:
- Have a cohesive look: create a vision board and colour range, and stick to it.
- Buy things made to last: search for solid timber and quality brands you love. Always ask for measurements and make sure items fit your space.
- Great places to hunt are facebook marketplace, gumtree, and online vintage sellers, council cleanups and second hand shops.
- Focus your online searches on affluent and more densely populated suburbs.
- If you're far away from a big city, a buying trip can be a good investment: hire a trailer, line up purchases to pick up in a single day (pay a deposit to the vendor so they're happy to hold it), and make a day of it.
- On facebook marketplace, create alerts for hard-to-find items and be specific: beautiful items move fast and it helps to be the first to know.
- If you have family or lovely friends living in different cities, ask if they might be happy to pick up the odd item for you, and expand your search for items near them. Likewise, if you're visiting somewhere on holidays have a quick scroll.
- Hunt for preloved original art at auction houses like Lawsons or Davidson Auctions, or head to your local art school's student exhibitions. Framed museum posters or even calendar images can also make great art: put them in preloved frames but get the matboards cut by a framer for a high-end look on a budget.
- If you make a mistake and buy the wrong thing, relist it using your own photos taken with the item styled and in good light: you can often resell at a profit.
