I scour the small adds in the local papers and message boards in supermarkets for secondhand goods.I have got some really good bargains,and you can always haggle to get the price lower.

I purchased a £15 gold coloured double headboard from Argos almost 15 years ago. I recently bought a £1 tin of white metal paint. After lightly sanding the headboard then giving it three coats of white paint, the headboard looks fabulous and modern. Cheaper than buying new.

I buy very good quality fabric like Romo for fraction of the original price and make my own cushions covers. You can get 3 cushion covers from a meter. Another hint, i hand sew my covers.

really good idea to use sites like gumtree - you never know what items people might be getting rid of - and sometimes they might even be free to a good home ;-)
