Summer Inspired Thrifty Decor Haul: Sharing My Favorite Finds for Summer
I love sharing thrifty finds with you guys, and I’ve gathered up a summer inspired thrifty decor haul that I’m pretty excited about!
I don’t know about you guys, but I love seeing thrift hauls. They always inspire me to keep thrifting for my own cottage style home, because you truly never know what you’ll find! Not only that, but thrift hauls give me new ideas and encourage me to look through sections of the store for home decor that I might normally pass by.
I know I may have a small thrift store addiction, but what can I say? Finding good deals is a passion of mine and an inexpensive way to keep my home looking beautiful! Facebook Marketplace is another great place to score great deals on home decor, as well as garage and yard sales. I hope this summer inspired thrifty decor haul gives you loads of inspiration to try out thrifting for your own home!
Now I have to admit, this grouping that I’m sharing today isn’t all thrifted decor. But that’s a good thing, right? Sometimes I feel bad as a content creator when I can’t link what I’m sharing or tell you where I got it from. I feel like I’m always finding antique decor or vintage finds at random yard sales or an antique shop; however, today I actually have a few things that were purchased new, so let me start with those before sharing the rest of my thrift store finds!
Woven Baskets
You will never guess where I found this beautiful set of baskets! Guys, these were at my local Dollar General! Can you believe it?! I absolutely love how bright they are, something about them just reminds me of summertime. I’m honestly always finding great things at Dollar General, and usually the prices are pretty reasonable.
The large basket was $8, the small was $6. If you have a Dollar General near you, run and grab these! I can picture them with milk glass pieces on the inside, or hanging from their handles in our kitchen. I can’t wait to find a place for them!

Striped Seat Cushions
These striped seat cushions are lovely aren’t they? I got a set of four of them at Home Goods for just $24.99. They look like linen (one of my favorite summer fabrics) and I just love the oat and white stripe in my dining space on my chairs. I can’t wait to show you how they look in there! I’m a big fan of stores like Home Goods, TJ Maxx and Marshalls for home decor! Plus they usually have a clearance section for an even deeper discount on already discounted items.
Vintage Glass Jar
Now let’s get to the thrifted decor! I love all things vintage and this vintage jar was so unique; I loved the metal handle and the ribbed glass. The small mouth makes it a perfect vessel for flowers, and I paid $4.50 at a second hand store.
Ball Jar Salt and Pepper Shakers
How adorable are these salt and pepper shakers? They just have so much charm, and I love that their metal lids are a bit beat up. Imperfections always add more character to a piece, and I only paid $1.75 for the pair! I have an entire post on thrift store kitchen staples if you’d like to check it out!
Straw Hats
I use straw hats in my decor from spring all the way through fall. I love the texture and warmth they bring to a space, and I think the varying shades of beige and yellow make the prettiest decor in an entry, mudroom or bedroom.
Both hats are pretty, but the hat with the giant bow is my absolute favorite! And while they make excellent summer decor, they also double as excellent accessories for a summer wardrobe.
White Ceramic Bird
The pretty little white bird is classic and timeless. It was only $3, and if I don’t find a place for it in my home I could always sell it in my booth at the local antique store. I love little antique pieces that add some whimsy and charm to my decor.
Antique Wooden Rolling Pin
Okay so these last few items weren’t actually thrifted, I purchased them at antique stores. But I truly think they are still “thrifty” because they were both priced so fairly!
This gorgeous rolling pin was only $12, and I just love the unique handles as well as the weathering in all the crevices. It will look beautiful in my kitchen, won’t it?! I can’t get enough of wood pieces throughout my home; I love natural materials and neutral colors.
Vintage Peredixo Cream Jar
This pretty little milk glass jar has the original lettering on the lid, and I just fell in love with it! I paid $6 for it and while I’m not sure where I’ll use it, I couldn’t pass it up. I always aim to have one of a kind pieces in my home
The worn metal lid has the prettiest patina, and I think it would be so cute in a kitchen or bathroom.
Well I hope you guys enjoyed this summer inspired thrifty decor haul! Should I share more of me styling thrifted decor for the summer months and giving thrifting tips!

PIN IT FOR LATER
What a great haul! I can’t wait to see what you do with the baskets. My husband calls Homegoods my home away from home. I love the hint there.
Hunt not hint : )
Hi Andrea,
Great haul! I love everything you found old and new! Can’t help but think, boy I wish I was with her on excursions! 😃Absolutely tasteful!
Ps I read your moms post. It sure was inspirational and right from the heart. She is pretty special…You are so lucky to have her.♥️
Hi Andrea! You found such beautiful items, perfect for the summer! I just had a little suggestion of what you could use the ball jar shakers for, other than salt and pepper. In one, you can put powdered sugar in it so it’s ready to dust the tops of cakes or cookies. And in the other, you can have cinnamon sugar for sprinkling on toast or waffles. I keep those items in shakers and use them all the time.
Oh thank you Rosemary! The boys would love that!
Hi, you had mentioned in the video that you were not sure if you would keep the large straw hat with bow or sell it. If you decide to sell it would you let me know. Thanks so much! Love reading your blog and love that you are a Christian!
I love it so much, I will probably keep it. Thank you also for your kind words!
I love your home decor style!!! Where did you get your coffee table and side table in your living room from?! Also may I ask what color you have in living room walls?! Thanks!!
Thank you so so much! Unfortunately both are thrifted, I am always on the lookout for the perfect pieces! Here is a blog post I wrote about painting my living room, I hope this helps! https://www.pineandprospecthome.com/choosing-white-paint-what-i-learned/
