Often, you don’t need much to transform a nice flat into a lovely home. My apartment interior is, surprise(!), mainly modern. Some vintage inspired decorative articles however, bring that retro flair into my home. Which articles? I will show you all of them in this blog post.
1. Retro Kitchenwear
As you maybe already know from this blog post, I’m not a very talented housewife. Yet, I really love retro kitchenwear, especially cute cookie boxes. (I love the cookies inside as well.) Shop this gorgeous “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” box here, a similar napkin holder is available here. And did you noticed the drip map? The quote is so true! You can buy it here.
2. Red Mules by Agent Provocateur
I don’t have lots of space anyway, so I like to convert my red mules by Agent Provocateur into a decorative article. They are together with colour matching flowers in front of my TV.
3. Coffee-Table Books
The name says everything, so I don’t think I need to explain more: Coffee-table books look gorgeous on a coffee-table!
4. Macaron Cushions
Macarons are so delicious! For some French flair at home, I invested in super cute Macaron cushions. They are available at Amazonfor example.
5. Model Cars
The perfect home accessory for vintage and oldtimer lovers like me? A model car like my Mercedes 300 SL, available here.
6. Vintage Jewellery
You would like to know why I use my vintage jewellery as decoration? Then read point two again. Isn’t this the most glamorous way to accessorize ones home?
7. Pink Roses
Pink roses are perfect to raise my spirits, even on gloomy and rainy days.
8. Scented Candles
I love candles! Especially candles with an intense scent for early fall and winter days, and fresh ones for late winter and early spring days.
9. A Japanese Tea Pot
Tea time is my favourite time of the day. Therefore it’s no wonder that I’m obsessed with lovely tea pots like this one.
10. A retro Alarm Clock by London Clock
Is being awakened by a retro alarm clock more pleasant than by a normal alarm clock? Not really, but it simply looks better on the bedside table. Shop a very similar clock here.
