Whimsical touches really make a home come alive. Don't be afraid to mix in colorful fun vintage items to bring instant life to a drab room. Create fun vingettes with incongruous items such as vintage chemical bottles on the bar area or kitch vintage home decorating books out on the coffee table. Add a dramatic retro lamp or painting to spice-up an accent wall and create instant drama! And take advantage of your local consignment shops to trade off this seasons treasures for next. Recycling and re-selling decorative items is a great way to manage your budget, keep your money within the local economy and reduce waste! It's so much more fun to find that one of a kind item, then to select mass produced items from a "big box" retail shop.
