Arranging Modern, Contemporary and Vintage Decor for One Kings Lane

You all know that I am a huge fan of Vintage. Do you revel in vintage flair?



I have several items that belonged to my Grandmother and several (Understatement) that I have collected over the years. I love to create vignettes that play on the juxtaposition of modern contemporary pieces with vintage items. So when One Kings Lane asked me to show how I would arrange vintage and modern contemporary pieces together, I immediately thought of these vintage brass deer and my modern graphic patterned lampshades. 




I love how the warm tones of the brass and yellow work well together. My vintage file cabinet sits in my entry and acts as a console table. The daffodils are "planted" inside of candle holders that have a graphic modern pattern and yet a rustic metal finish. The silver tray is a French Nordic antique that I just love. You don't have to go antiquing to find great items like these.


You can get this look at One Kings Lane:

 I think the best way to pair vintage with modern contemporary pieces is to just have fun with it. Check out this article from One Kings Lane for more ideas on Decorating w/ Vintage.

 Happy Spring!
