V is for Vintage Vignettes

Breezeway or fretwork panels

above my old bedroom door

in the house I grew up in

(built circa 1880).

These panels are iconic in Queenslander

and

colonial style houses

in

Australia.

Vintage Vignettes

Not very original I suppose

but

In this blogging world that I have become quite familiar with

it's all about
Vintage

and

that

suits me fine and dandy.

I've always been drawn to Vintage style,
even as a small child.

Needless to say my home is full of vintage vignettes.

Turn around and look in any corner or area

and that's what you will see.

I have learned through my US blogging friends that it's ok to be like this.....LOL

I don't have to feel guilty.

I used to say I was preserving the past for the future

and that still holds true

but

now

I can decorate with renewed
Verve and Vigour

not having to feel guilty

about my love and enjoyment of

all things Vintage.

Be it a pile of old junk... (I know I'll find 'something' that I can use).

No matter how derelict and disgusting that old pile of 'stuff' might be.
If it's old and pre-loved I'm pretty sure something in that pile of someone else's unwanted 'stuff' will become a treasure to me.

I particularly love this vintage laundry trolley complete with original clothes pegs.

It belongs to a friend of the family.

I just wanted to share this with you,

it's so lovely.

Thanks for joining me at

remember

I'd really love to hear from you.

If you follow me I will follow you right back.

I look forward to meeting some fellow Vintage lovers.
