Facebook Marketplace Finds : Phoenix, AZ
After sharing the guest room reveal that featured some pretty fun vintage goods (my floor lamps, the mohair bench, and my bird artwork), I got a lot of messages asking how and where I find cool vintage decor. The topic of thrifting and buying secondhand also came up in my 2021 trends post, and it has been quite awhile since I’ve shared Facebook Marketplace Finds, sooo- I figured this would be an appropriate and fun post that might help to get your wheels turning. This month’s city? Phoenix! I’m searching the dessert for furniture, decor, and beautiful home finds. Click through to see what I turned up… it did not disappoint.
*Photo disclaimer… I pulled the following images directly from Facebook Marketplace, so the size and quality of some isn’t the best. Ready to see my finds?
Vintage Woven Barstools
These are really cute and look to have been refinished. You can grab the pair for $130, and I wouldn’t even negotiate because the money goes toward a great cause- all proceeds benefit transitional veterans, the homeless, or the local Native American community (according to the listing). It seems like this seller owns a shop that works with a vocational program to raise proceeds. I’d actually be interested to learn more about it, if there are any locals who know of this! Regardless- cool bar stools.

Antique Chair
You can’t go wrong with a classic, leather antique chair. This goes with anything and everything. I could definitely see a lumbar styled on the back with a fun designer print fabric. This chair seems to be in wonderful condition and was just listed yesterday for $100. I *think* there may be some other gems in this storage unit (based on the background photos). It might be one of those where you show up and get to dig for more surprises?! Those are the best.

Chandelier
For $50 this beautiful chandelier could be yours! It’s really a timeless looking light fixture and I love the black shades. If I were closer, I’d snag this for our dining room.

Small Table
This little table was listed last night and I’m imagining it won’t stick around long, priced at $20! I love the leg style and it seems like it’s in great shape. The top could use some work, but for that price- it’s well worth it. I could see this being used as an entry table, small dining table, or even a game table. So many uses!

Rolled Arm Settee
Given this sofa is upholstered in durable, custom Krypton fabric… I’m assuming the sofa frame is designer. If I had to bet- I’d guess it’s Hickory Chair brand, which is heirloom quality. It seems to have been reupholstered quite recently. For $200 this is an excellent find! I love the rolled arm style and arched back. It’s a beautiful piece of furniture. It was just listed, so I wouldn’t negotiate.

Bar Cabinet
What a beautiful little bar cabinet! That hardware is incredible, the finish is in perfect condition, and it locks (making it ideal for homes with kids or teens). I definitely wouldn’t mind storing our liquor in there. It’s listed at $100 and was just marked down from $200. You may have some negotiating power, but I think it’s a fair price.

Pair of Marble Obelisks
I’m not quite sure how big these are (it’s my pet peeve when FBMP sellers don’t list the size), but they look to be pretty large. These would make amazing styling objects! I was actually tempted to see if the seller would ship them to me, or ask my favorite Phoenix native, Laurie Anne, to buy them for me and bring them next time she drives to Salt Lake for a visit. They’re really awesome.

Inlay Sideboard
I’m not 100% convinced this sideboard is vintage, but it sure is beautiful! It’s listed at $350 which seems a bit high since it has been on the market for over three weeks. I’d negotiate and see if they would accept $275 or $300. I love the inlay detail, hardware, and finish. It’s really a stunning find. Speaking of- there seems to be other awesome pieces in the background… I read deeper into the listing and it’s located at East Valley Antiques. Phoenix friends- you should check it out and remember this one. It looks like they have TONS of awesome treasures if you’re furniture shopping.

Animal Print Ottoman
I’m sure at this point, you know me well enough to know I LOVE a good animal print ottoman. Haha! I had to include this little cutie. It would be perfect as a vanity stool, paired with your favorite chair, nestled under a console table, or styled near a fireplace. It’s only $30. Someone snag it!

Vintage Chair
Last, but not least- a project chair. The shape of this chair is really phenomenal. Trust me when I said it could be GOOD. It’s a gorgeous piece of furniture. I especially love the brass finials, the woven back, and the wood finish. I’d reupholster the seat and bust out my furniture polish. This diamond in the rough will shine up nicely! It’s been on the market forever and is listed at $40… I bet you could get it for $20 or $30. Who needs a fun project?

Well, that was fun! I was in need of some happy scrolling and this did the trick. Check back tomorrow for a bonus Friday blog post! I filled my blog calendar to the brim with all of your incredible post ideas, so I’ve been feeling extra inspired lately (even if it means late nights writing). Ha! I can’t wait to share my office design plan with you. I’m working through the last details this week, then it’s go time. Woohoo!
