Vintage shabby Moving house and going vintage, any suggestions?
We're moving house just after christmas and I'm allowed a theme for my bedroom. I want to give it an edgy vintage/shabby chic kind of look, and would appreciate if anyone had any ideas for some key pieces or anything general to get? Also do you know any good places to get stuff? I'm a 16 year old girl by the way
Thankyouuu
2 things are a must have ...an old vanity ( had at an old furniture store) With a huge mirror. http://kellyraeroberts.blogspot.com/2009/04/last-home-toura-green-couch-colorful.html
And a Folding screen http://www.mobilehomeadvantage.com/images/FabricFloorScreen.jpg If your dad or mom or a relative can make one like this (they are really easy to make) you can put your fabric that matches your curtians or bed inside. These are great at the foot of the bed..In a corner to hide "stuff" To drape boas over or pretty shawls.
You can get inexpensive picture frames and spray paint them and print images off the net like these http://pro.corbis.com/images/IH187584.jpg?size=67&uid=C0743E3A-BF7F-4F36-B2B7-A06BE4CC9C0C
Hat stands to hold belts and pretty hats evening bags..think Audry Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffanys http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/capturedvogue/audrey-hepburn-hat1.jpg
Target has a whole line of shabby chic now.
When I think Vintage I think creams linens laces and pale muted oranges or yellows or teal or powder blue. You want to think one of the colors with the cream. Not that you can't use more but you should have a dominate color theme. Bedrooms tend to be small...you don't want an explosion of color in there it tends to make things look cluttered.
A bed curtian ( you can make one with poles) , hope chest, pillows, a funky lamp, chandelier, round table covered with your bedding colors and linens in layers will complete the look. Vases too with paper flowers (or dried) in your colors. http://frenchblue-frenchblue.blogspot.com/2009/03/white-paper-flowers.html An antique comb and brush set.
