Antiques lend so much character to a room..........imagine an all white room and then one rusted old peeling paint trunk in the middle as a coffee table. So many questions around this trunk..........who did it belong to, how old is it, what did it store, did it travel the world. These are things we ask ourselves about our own growing antique collection at home.
So it was only natural that my decorating style incorporate antiques in the scheme of things. This particular home decorated by stylist
Kara Rosenlund captured my attention due to its calm palette and sprinkling of tasteful antiques.
Today vintage pieces can be found at garage sales and flea markets, and therefore it does not cost a bomb to incorporate them into your decor. These pics will surely inspire you to try them out.
