Charlotte Hohorst successfully overhauled her dingbat-style apartment in Los Angeles, making the most out of a tight budget while embracing creativity. She sourced secondhand furniture primarily through Facebook Marketplace, thrift shops, and estate sales. Charlotte initially found her apartment dated but viewed it as an opportunity to create a personalized, vibrant living space. By re-caning her chairs and reupholstering them, she demonstrated how resourcefulness can lead to a stylish and unique home, proving that nothing needs to be perfect when you have a vision and resourcefulness.
If I had an unlimited budget, I would have gone a lot crazier... Instead I really leaned into Facebook Marketplace, I shopped the sales, the estate sales, the thrift shops.
It was old and pretty dated, but I had a blank canvas and a lot of time at home on my hands.
I Facebook Marketplaced and DIYed my way from a serial killer-esque blank canvas to what I would call a colorful, euphoric riot.
Don't sleep on the furniture at Goodwill!
