  1. There are several very inexpensive ways to decorate and furnish a new home. Go to yard and garage sales, you can find many nice things there. Check the classified ads for the sale that have the things you need. Also resale shops are a great place to find things to including furniture. Also check with Churches in your area people donate many things. Also put an ad on craigslist for wanted and be sure to check there free list many people give things away they no longer need. Best Wises!


  2. au natural is cheap and effective,argos and ebay,p&p from ebay could be expensive depending on weight..woolworths is also good for household goods.

  3. Try craigslist.com or garage sales.  Good luck!

  4. All above are good answers, just a warning.  With upholstery  & mattresses you could be bringing home problems such as various types of insects or cat pee stink.  So tables, etc are fine at garage sales, but beware upholstery.  Fouton frames are fine, but buy new pads.  Try for furniture you can add fresh clean pads and backing.  Remember to inspect all purchases, over/under and through for signs of unwelcome guests before you get them thru the front door.  Mismatched woods are fine as you can sand them and paint to match.  Lamps can be easily rewired and reshaded.  Not all dishes are microwave proof......read the bottoms.  If you can't find a whole set, go with a theme and find pieces: for example a color theme: blue and white.  A few really good pots and pans are far better than a lot of cheapies.
