Guest post: Vintage vignettes with Arcadian Lighting

A while back I was contacted about having a guest post here on Our designed life about vintage finds and boy did Arcadian Lighting give the goods! I just love to have a different voice join the mix every once and awhile so please, enjoy the beautiful vintage inspired eye candy- its already got me itching to do a little rearranging around here to showcase all of my vintage goodies.

Hi, I'm Susi, a writer for Arcadian Lighting, a website and blog dedicated to wonderful lighting fixtures and ideas for the home. I'm so happy to be visiting Our Designed Life as a guest blogger today. My post is about amazing vintage vignettes—something I absolutely love. Creating these vignettes allows you to tell a story with your fabulous vintage finds. Enjoy!

I love this amazing vintage vignette that would be so charming in a guest room. This vignette tells the story about about traveling to Europe.

This vintage vignette is a lovely nod to vintage books. The heavy roses give the vignette a nostalgic, romantic charm.

A vintage farmhouse inspired kitchen is one large, amazing vintage vignette. From the pottery to vintage bread and cake boxes, there is so much charm in this space.

This beautiful vintage vignette is full of French country charm. It transports you to France with the large painted armoire and the amazing light fixture, a vintage chandelier, above a rustic farmhouse table.

Another vintage inspired kitchen is full of charming vignettes. We love the soda bottles on top of the shelves and all the vintage cooking gizmos.
Vintage Decor
Vintage silver and silverplate can make incredible vignettes. I love the tarnished silver color. The antique bee print is also so very lovely.
Vintage Decor
A desk, vanity, console table or even nightstand is a wonderful place to create an amazing vintage vignette. This desk is filled with beautiful objects and lamps.
Vintage Decor
Vintage vignettes can incorporate furniture, objects, lighting and art. These vintage prints work beautifully with the old school chairs and antique cameras in this cool foyer.
