How to thrift

I love to reimagine and reinvent, so get ready to roll up your sleeves because we’re about to rummage through piles of dusty furniture, decor and clothing to find the diamond in the rough. The messier, the better. I’ve been sourcing and making for over 25 years and am obsessed with sharing my love of timeless, elevated and sustainable projects using recycled materials. Through my creative work, I hope to inspire you to change how you think about furnishing your home.

Here you will find lots of tips and tricks for successful sourcing trips, as well as hundreds of project tutorials, from beginner to intermediate and advanced. You can choose whatever project takes your interest and follow the tutorials step-by-step, or change things, such as paint colours, fixtures and finishes, so the project suits your style. If you want to learn how to use a range of power tools with confidence and ease, I highly recommend joining my Power Tool Course. Hundreds of students have already signed up and learned how to use a range of tools, with more project tutorials being shared this year. And best of all, it’s free! To check it out, click here.

Whether it's reimagining an armchair you find on the kerbside, transforming a room divider using paint, or reinventing a bedsheet into a gorgeous two piece set, you’ll walk away feeling inspired and empowered to recreate the projects you find here.

Where does the name “Smor” come from?

I went to Copenhagen in 2018 and fell in love with the Danish word for butter, smør. With family roots in Denmark, I wanted to bring this slow, cosy feeling of smør back home through upcycling, making and thrifting. And Smor Home was born in 2021.
