Fun and functional home decor for maximalists! TikTok & Instagram: @practicalmaximalism

🌿Hi, I’m Megan! I’m in my 20s and live in Memphis, TN with my husband and our two jack russell terriers.

🌿I love thrifting and giving old things new life! I’m definitely a maximalist, and I LOVE decorating with color and quirky things. I think what we choose to decorate our homes tells a story, and vintage and secondhand items not only are good for the environment, but they bring more character and personality to your space. Also, I’m a big believer that maximalism doesn’t have to be impractical- we can fill our homes with items that bring us joy and but also serve a purpose.

🌿Here, you’ll find some vintage items, some up-cycled secondhand pieces, and some handmade things. I try to source secondhand materials as much as possible, and each up-cycled and handmade listing will be transparent about new vs secondhand supplies.

🌿Have a look around, and feel free to DM with any questions! Find us on TikTok and Instagram @practicalmaximalism for behind the scenes and for info on future drops!
