Vintage chic is a popular look for the home and works particularly well in personal spaces such as the bedroom; decorating with timeless classics such as vintage glass bottles, pretty trinkets and old personal photographs creates relaxing and beautifully romantic spaces.
The combination of old and
new can be used to striking effect; whether it be vintage nick knacks or larger
feature items such as reclaimed floors and restored original cast iron radiators,
blending old products into modern day settings creates interesting and stylish
interiors.
The team at The Old Radiator Company offer original cast iron radiators that are restored back to their
former glory; supplied fully tested, these old gems can be plumbed straight
into modern day heating systems.
Create a talking
point with a vintage floor; TheVintage Floor Tile Company offers gorgeous reclaimed quarry, encaustic
and cement tiles that were often found in churches and are steeped in history.
Up-cycling is not only
eco-friendly but can be cost effective too; giving something old new life with
a lick of paint or wax for example not only
restores hidden beauties, but often costs much less than buying something new.
This popular trend adds character and a personal touch to any home.
With the increase in demand
for vintage style and retro home wares many companies offer new products that
are made to look as if they were born in a different era.
