Furniture needed for my condo

[Jannat8]

Hey, I'm looking to furnish my small studio condo and wondering if anyone in the Toronto area is looking to sell their furnishings?

@Jannat8 Facebook marketplace provided a lot of our furniture/equipment at excellent prices. Antique auctions are also great if you have a period property. Many of our guests enjoyed 200 year old furniture. Only brand new items we bought were linen and mattresses.

Thanks Mike-And-JaneO! I have been checking Marketplace - and I love antique stuff. 

I'll pay more attention when I check them out this week.

Hello @Jannat8 

I purchase some second-hand furniture from local markets and refurbish them to give them a fresh, unique look. For example, I transformed my wooden dining table into a charming, rustic piece. The key is to ensure the furniture is sturdy and functional. I also recommend joining local buy-and-sell communities, which are often active on platforms like Facebook Marketplace. They’re great for finding affordable pieces to upcycle and personalize for your space.

Thanks Patricia2526! It appears you must be very talented.  If I had time these are great ideas.  I will definitely look into the local buy and sell communities.  Much appreciate your tips. 

Be well.
