Hey friend!

Facebook Marketplace can feel like the Wild West of home decorating—one minute you're spotting the perfect vintage mirror, and the next, you're knee-deep in listings for broken recliners and blurry photos of who-knows-what.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed, unsure, or like you're wasting time scrolling through clutter, this episode is for you.

Today I'm continuing with my Shop Small Summer Series and believe it or not, FB Marketplace is just that...with many sellers just cleaning out their closets, the rest are running small businesses. So today, I’m sharing 7 smart, practical strategies that will help you shop Facebook Marketplace with confidence and success—so you can score stylish, high-quality pieces without blowing your budget (or your patience).

In this episode, you’ll learn how to:

  • Use SEO and keywords to make Marketplace work for you, not against you

  • Cross-reference items with Google Lens to determine value and style

  • Negotiate with kindness (yes, it actually works!)

  • Set filters that save time and keep junk out of your feed

  • Know your aesthetic anchors so you don’t waste money on the wrong vibe

  • Avoid setting arbitrary price limits that block you from the good stuff

  • Shop with purpose and patience—without the overwhelm

Whether you're hunting for a statement piece or hoping to furnish a room on a tight budget, these tips will help you shop like a pro and decorate with intention.

 

Want to decorate with confidence—whether you're shopping secondhand or not?

Let’s take the guesswork out of the process:

  • Book a Decorating SOS Call for personalized support

  • Join The Collective for monthly lessons, coaching, and budget-friendly design tools that meet you right where you are

You don’t need to spend a fortune to love your home—you just need a strategy (and a little bit of patience). Hit play and let’s start treasure hunting!

 

Happy styling!
