Garage Sale Home Decor Prices: What to Charge

Home decor sells on looks more than anything else at a garage sale. Group lamps, frames, vases and candles into small styled vignettes on a table so shoppers can picture them in a room. Put working bulbs in lamps and plug them in so buyers see the light. Sell matching sets of frames, pillows or baskets together at one price. Price small pieces low and offer a bundle deal on the whole table late in the day.

Common questions

How much should I charge for lamps at a garage sale?

A table lamp often sells for about $5 to $20 and a floor lamp for about $10 to $30. Name-brand, designer or vintage lamps can bring more when they are clean and working.

Does home decor sell at garage sales?

Yes. Picture frames, baskets and seasonal-neutral pieces sell well when they are priced low or bundled. Styled displays help lamps, vases and wall art move faster than a loose pile.
