Using vintage finds to enhance any decorating style....

Imagine this fabulous little pie safe with a matching hoosier cabinet,
or
sitting on cool granite countertop in a sleek modern kitchen!  


Architectural elements salvaged from older buildings can be used in displays with other vintage pieces,
or
incorporated into a new home to add the character of another era. 

Anything metal, rustic and with chippy paint instantly adds history to any style of home.

 How great would this old office rubber stamp holder be in holding modern stamps for your favourite scrapbooker or cardmaker?

Imagine this metal cubby shelf at an entryway to catch all some of your cherished finds,
or
in a kitchen to display containers of tea, spices or collectibles.  


Use a stack of vintage travel cases in a hallway for extra storage,
or
piled by a chair instead of a boring end table!

Try any of these as desk accessories, why go to a office supply store?
Add some industrial office chic to your workspace! 

Go ahead, ignore those big box import decor stores.....
decorate with your heart and some good old memories.
