Stunning Salvage...

Reclaimed Letters - Home Barn

 Rusty Metal Letters - RE

 Everyone seems to love the alphabet... especially in vintage...

Salvaged coloured and rusty metal letters have so much character!..
use them to spell out a word, phrase or name... 

A fantastic feature for your home... vintage letters make an immediate impact in any room...

I love these kitchen themed letter wall hangings!..

Re-use, Re-cycle & Re-invent...

Restored draws - daffodils & snowdrops

Re-invent an old set of draws with a fresh lick of paint and vintage style accessories...

My husband found this unwanted set of draws on the side of the road and brought them home so that we could give them a new lease of life..

First we painted the draws antique white... 

then sanded down the edges to give a shabby chic style...

We decided to keep the top natural by sanding it down and rubbing it over with some Danish Oil...

Red Decorative Knobs - Anthropologie

Pink Spotted Knobs - John Lewis

To finish we added some stylish knobs... 

I miss-matched mine to give a quirky vintage look...

So... be thrifty and have a go at recycling your old and unwanted household items... 

by turning them into new and desirable pieces for your home...

Decorative Door Stops...

 Vintage hot water bottles - 

Various secondhand shops

Alongside bringing a vintage edge to your home decoration, stone hot water bottles make stylish and effective doorstops...

I picked these up from my local secondhand shops... keep your eyes open for them at car boot sales too!..
