I’m a pro home stager – make your place look more expensive while getting the best bang for your buck on furniture
WHEN it comes to furnishing your home, things can get expensive.
None of us want our space to look cheapy or thrown together, but most of us don’t have the money to splurge on designer couches or high-end décor.
A home expert named Tammi, who goes by @girlsgottoeat on TikTok, has gained a following of nearly 140k users thanks to her videos that offer décor advice and real estate tips.
She recently shared one of her favorite money-saving hacks and the clip received over 570k views:
“I design Airbnbs for a living, which means I shop a lot in store and online.
“Yesterday in Nashville I went to a high-end boutique, and I found this rug and I thought it was perfect for the new Airbnb I am designing.”

Tammi asked the sales rep for a price on the item, and she told her it was $2,600 and would take six weeks to deliver.
“The first thing that we have to do is we have to get a photo of the thing we want.
“So if you’re online, just grab it from google search images and save it to your photos.”
Once the image is saved to your phone album, you’ll see the share icon that you usually use to send an image in a text.

“Press that, scroll all the way down until you see ‘Search with Google Lens.’
“After you hit that button, you will see a list of things that might be similar, they might be matching.”
Tammi was able to find a rug that was almost identical to the one she saw in the store for almost a quarter of the price—at $715 instead of $2600.
The new rug she found on Amazon would arrive at her house in 10 days rather than six weeks.
