Shabby Chic Vintage Home Inspirations


When I first caught glimpse of these shabby chic vintage interiors my heart did flutter. Not only did the house have old bones, but the vintage clothes, the sparkling jewels, and the collection of vintage Wolf dress forms next to that antique armoire... oh goodness, if this isn't shabby chic vintage heaven, I don't know what is.


I dream one day to have a workspace that could be as beautiful as this and as inspiring. I always wanted to live in a home where people felt the urge to poke around and peek at the beautiful things I've curated over the years. I want everything in my home to tell a story, particularly a fairy tale.

Vintage Inspired Places | Home Office

I often wish I had my little own space to do all my work and these lovely vintage inspired home offices have got me a bit green with envy! So inspiring!


I love that mix of modern meets industrial meets vintage. When I say vintage, I usually refer to a more feminine look and not just something that is older. And for industrial, to me it is more masculine. Maybe I can say I like very androgynous rooms?

The Vintage Home | Kitchen Decorating Ideas With Flea Market & Antique Mall Finds

One of the reasons I love going to antique malls so much is to add to my collection of vintage kitchen knick knacks. I particularly love floral plates, porcelain tea cups and saucers, and vintage tea towels.

What are your favorite vintage finds at flea markets?

Vintage Home Inspirations | White Out

I absolutely love homes that are bright, clean, white, and a bit sparse. These homes are beyond gorgeous and I dream someday to live in quarters as lovely!

The Vintage Home: Decorating Inspirations From A French Farmhouse




I am so in love with this old stone house, can I just move in for the summer, please? I love the rustic & primitive charms and all of the bleached linens. These photos are from a farmhouse near the the small village of Lussan. You can find many more photos at Living Inside (Italian)

Vintage Room Envy: Mid-Century Modern & Painted Women Gallery

I love the clean lines of Mid-Century furniture and the dark wood grains. I think when it comes to interior design I'm caught between the 1950s modern house and the 19th Century French countryside château where everything is in varying shades of cream, eggshell, and antique white. I couldn't picture our house being decked out in so much mid-century furniture and decor as the one pictured here, but there are many enviable elements. The painted portraits (I love those but can never bring myself to buy one...), that beautiful credrenza, and the yellow Herman Miller-esque rocking chair.

Vintage Room Envy: Hot Pink, Crystal Chandeliers, & Vintage Perfume Bottles

I am so in love, absolutely head over heels with this ultra feminine bathroom! I am definitely taking a cue for my own rather chintzy 1920s bathroom. I love that this has a lot of va-va-voom but all the lines are very clean, very simple. That is a great mix. Start off with clean simple lines and add the high glamour with vintage bottles, crystal chandeliers, and anything floral and sparkly.

Flea Market Homes: 10 Pretty & Eclectic Interiors to Inspire

There is something so cozy and welcoming about homes that have a mix of antique and new. The interiors featured here all have bits and pieces you could easily find at your local flea market or swap meet. Look for vintage linens such as floral curtains and table clothes, hand painted bowls, vintage tin cans or wire baskets for storage, and needlepoint pillowcases and ornate framed paintings. Just remember to buy what you love and what catches you eye, because as I've found, when you purchase items you cherish, it all comes together in the end.

10 Mid-Century Modern Interiors, Mixing Old + New



I love Mid-Century modern furniture because the lines are clean and simple. Nothing is ever too bulky or too fussy. I also love all the wood grain colors.

I'm currently in love with the { Eames DSW } chair with wooden legs (pictured in 3 + 5). I need end chairs for our dining room and I feel these would be a great fit. At first I was seriously considering the Louis Ghost chairs, but can you imagine how annoying it would get to see fingerprints and marks on all that clear acrylic? And I'm slightly OCD... it would not bode well.
