Blue and White Decor on a Budget

thrift store decor

I am completely obsessed with Blue and White decor. I especially love Chinoiserie accents and I collect Ginger Jars.

House Beautiful says that the Chinoiserie style was really popular in the 17th and 18th centuries because people in Europe thought Chinese culture was really chic.
One of my favorite blogs, Pender and Peony admits to being a “blue and white snob” and I may be guilty of this affliction.

I like Blue and White decor because it’s timeless and it reminds me of home. My Ginger Jar addiction could be costly but I’ve found ways to buy pretty Blue and White decor on a budget.

Thrift Stores: Bargain Prices

Buying Chinoiserie chic accents at thrift stores an save you a fortune. Be patient and check back often when looking for Chinoiserie items. You never know what you’ll find. Remember to keep an open mind while thrifting, sometimes these stores have well-made dupes.

Home Goods is a Goldmine

If you don’t love Home Goods, keep scrolling! I’ve been a big fan of this fabulous chain (and T.J. Maxx) for years.

I get tons of compliments on the Ginger Jars and Chinoiserie decor from Home Goods, I love visiting Home Goods store regularly–don’t threaten me with a good time!
