Favorite Vintage Decor

November 16, 2020

Oh, do I have a treat for you! Today I’m sharing my favorite vintage decor and so are my friends Sarah and Chloe from Room For Tuesday and Boxwood Avenue. The original concept was to share one and only one piece of vintage decor, but I said, “ONE SRSLY ONE?” The struggle is real. I can’t wait to see what favorite vintage decor my girls shared…their homes are beautious…but first, here’s mine.

As you know, I likes me some antiques.

Vintage objects give a room soul.

They tell a story.

They draw guests in for a closer look.

They add personality to your space.

Favorite Vintage Decor - sharing a few favorite antiques I use to decorate my home

When I go antiquing, do I sometimes go overboard and buy things I don’t need? Ummmm yes. Case in point, this old, crusty paint palette I picked up from Warehouse 55 in Aurora, IL. Without a plan, I bought it because it gave me that flutter in my stomach. That gut feeling that tells my brain, “you must buy this”.

Artist tools in general give me that feeling. If the description for an estate sale reads, “eclectic artist home…”, ya I’ll be there at dawn and hoarding all the things. If I ever style out a craft desk, I’ll definitely have enough interesting desk props on hand. The paint palette still has no home…it’s presently living on the dining room table so I can soak in its beauty every time I walk past it.

This hand-painted floral hide trunk was tucked away in the corner of a booth at Warehouse 55…I bought it the same day I purchased the paint palette. Pop a trunk in the corner of any room and I dare you not to store anything in it…srsly they’re perfect for toys, blankets, magazines…anything. Before I sealed the deal on this puppy, I opened her up and gave her the sniff test. No weird smells here.

The trunk was definitely a bit of a splurge, but I’ve never seen anything like it. After circling it 18 times, I walked away to think…something I never suggest doing…you walk away from a vintage piece, and there’s a good chance another will swoop it up. I couldn’t stop thinking about it. The patina was absolutely stunning.

Now that I’m taking a closer look at this vignette, pretty much every single thing shown here is vintage. The ceramic leopard (or is he a cheetah), the Kittinger gold leaf buffet, the Paul Hanson tortoise shell lamp, the sculpture (yes, it’s from an artist estate sale), the vase, painting, and candleholders (which double as bells) are all antiques. You definitely cannot tell I used to own a vintage shop…I say in the most sarcastic voice ever.

If you turned 90º, you’ll be staring at this gold gilt mirror.

I have no idea where this mirror originally lived, but I purchased it from an online estate sale. It’s a favorite as is that old champagne display bottle, the vintage Pierre Cardin reupholstered dining chairs (yup, they are no longer pink), the 1950’s marble top pastry table, and the Picasso print from The Savoy Flea.

This Henrendon burl wood console is perfection. It was purchased off of Facebook MarketPlace for a steal, and its small scale fits perfectly in this space. I love it paired with this Mid-Century Modern globe lamp. That ginkgo leaf lamp is not an antique. It was purchased new but the design is a knock-off of this Tommaso Barbi lamp I fully regret selling.

As you can see, I love missing vintage and new home decor…hop on over to Room For Tuesday and Boxwood Avenue to check out their favorite vintage decor pieces!

I started decorating Zozo’s bedroom but never finished. Since, she’s decided she no longer likes pink. “Mom, can I get a blue bed?” @jcpenney helped me find a comprise that was not only blue but also affordable and very much this little lady’s bohemian’s style. The bedding and pillows are all from the new Distant Lands Collection. She’s obsessed with the tiger print pillow and the tassels. Side note, she is not a top sheet gal which I’ve been hearing more and more people talk about this. Do you sleep with a top sheet or no? Inquiring minds what to know. SPONSORED

SWIPE 👆🏻 Finally loving the living room again. Although I’m still missing the built ins. I shopped the @serenaandlily sale for that tray and blanket - there’s a whole round up of favorites over on HouseOfHipsters.com - and I love how the blanket balances out the green chair and the tray softens the black coffee table. What do you think of the new look? #liketkit #LTKhome #LTKsalealert @shop.ltk https://liketk.it/3G7VE

(AD) SWIPE FOR ROOM REFRESH 👉🏻 If you’ve been watching Stories that you know I’ve been working hard on this room and I gotta give a shoutout to @JaipurLiving for the new rug in their #KLwithJaipurLiving collection. This is Davina from their new collection with Kate Lester @klinteriors and it really brightened up the entire space. Although they recently showed this one with Harman layered over the top and it’s absolutely dreamy. If you haven’t seen the full collection, head over to their profile and check it out or tap the link below to shop the collection on @rugs_direct. While your there, give them a follow and tell ‘em I say hi. http://bit.ly/3tZgE8p
