4 Super Cool Vintage Things to Add to Your Decor

By Anita 9 Comments

I love vintage touches, and really think they are the secret ingredient in an interesting, warm, inviting home. They add so much to the room, and aren’t difficult to find, if you know where to look. Here are 4 of my favorite vintage things to add to a room.

1. Vintage Trophies 

Source: Mine were found at auction, but you could try looking for them on eBay.

 2. Vintage kitchen accessories

Source: I inherited this juicer, but I would think eBay or a thrift store would have something like this.

 3. Olive Buckets

Source: Mine are from Round Top. These are heavy, so shipping might be expensive if you had to order them.  I would check eBay though. There might be a local source near you.

 4. Vintage Ironstone

Source: I inherited this piece, but I did buy a lot on eBay.  You can also find these at resale shops and thrift stores.

I hope that gave you some ideas of how to add vintage touches to your home, and some ideas on where to look for these items.  If you have any ideas on sources, please leave them in the comments for other readers.

    ANITA,

    Are auctions a good way to go to purchase antique items? Or can they be a pricey way to go?

      It depends on the auction house. Avoid the ones with valet parking, LOL, they can be very expensive. The ones on a back road are more reasonable.

    Decor Steals sells that olive bucket from time to time and shipping is only $5.

    Trophies are my favorite, but they are so hard to find now! It’s like when kitchen scales became popular to collect . . . swoosh! They were all gone in a flash!
    Great post and good ideas for collecting!

    What great ideas for starters! I had so many antiques years ago when I went through my country stage and ended up through the years selling them off. But, now I’m back older & wiser (I hope) and I’m falling in love with these treasures all over again! Thanks for posting!! Kathy 🙂

    Anita,
    LOVE all your suggestions of vintage touches, dear friend!!!
    Secretly, I’d love to begin an ironstone tureen collection.
    What holds me back is space and storage!!!
    Love the vintage ironstone with balls of twine photo!!!
    Fondly,
    Pat
