Something I love about "vintage style" is what I like to scientifically call "unintended usage".
That is my new (and original!) phrase for describing a styling element in which an item is used in decorating in a way other than that in which it was orignally intended.
A simple example might be:
Using old tin or enamel buckets as plant pots...
Recycling jars to make into vases or candle holders...
or the little bit more experimental...
An old door of a wardrobe used as a bedroom mirror...
A headboard made from old shutters...
A set of old doors made into a folding screen...
When searching through my collection of books and the internet I have come across so many wonderful "unintended usage" ideas for vintage / country / garden weddings so when I came across a collection of small vintage trophies for sale I immediately thought how fun they would be for use as table decorations at one of these creative weddings...
(Click here to purchase these at Vintage Lifestyle)
I found numerous pretty inspirational photos to back up my idea...
If you are planning a vintage style country wedding stop by Vintage Lifestyle for more props and fun items.
