Retro Wonderful



Obviously, one look at this blog ~ and it goes without saying, I'm a kitten for vintage kitsch.  I love it all.  In my book, if it is retro, it is wonderful.  I'm not a stickler for one era, though.  Give me the twenties, the thirties, heavy on the fourties, and throw some other 'ies' in there, and we are good.  I like shabby chic, victorian treats, and mid-century diner style thrown in for good measure. 


Over the past year, my husband and I have been woking on re-decorating our home with 1. no money; 2. A lot of elbow grease; and 3. A fair amount of compromise.  (The hubby is a fan of modern clean lines, cool colors, and bare minimalism.  I... am not.)  However, we seem to have finally (after nearly a decade of cohabitation!) started to find our happy middle ground.  In the coming weeks, I'll start sharing those results with you.


In the meantime, since it is Studio Saturday here at Born Broken - I figured I would share a new favorite website.  It offers endless inspiration for working with retro decor and playing with vintage goodies.  Be sure and check out their blog too!



Here is a peek at some of their website goodies:



Be sure and check out the T-Party website and blog for even more vintage/retro fun!  Happy Studio Saturday, all!

Saturday is Studio / Home Day!

Do you have any houses, studios or decor that you adore? Leave me a comment and a link. I love to visit new places, and I'd love to feature reader favorites on upcoming Studio Saturday days.
