Another "installment" of my Decorating Vintage Series! Today, I'm focusing on a little bit of our entry way. Our apartment has a lovely little entryway...and without anything in it, it seemed like wasted space. Turns out, it was the perfect spot for an entryway table. We took the IKEA expedit coffee table we had, took the legs off of one side, and installed them onto the other legs, making the table much taller. Then we attached the legless side of the table to the wall using some "L" brackets. It's just the perfect height for the entryway...and as an added bonus the cat's litter box fits perfectly underneath. Score.
Now the top of the table? Well, that can be a problem. After all, what better place for clutter to accumulate. But if you take the time to make it look nice, amazingly you have no desire to get the entryway cluttered. :)
And my favorite part (besides the cute handprints of my LBB):
Some of my vintage books and the lovely Brownie Hawkeye camera a dear friend gave me a few Christmases ago. :)
Vintage can be anywhere in the house. When used just right, it gives just the sweetest touch of character to your home.
Do you go vintage shopping at all? What is one thing you are ALWAYS on the lookout for?
