My blog bestie Jackie is filling in today (she’s the Lucy to my Ethel!). Take it away, J!
Hello Maggie Rose readers! My name is Jackie, and I author the lifestyle blog Sweetie Pie Style. Maggie and I met through blogging many, many moons ago, and I count her as one of my nearest and dearest. I’m happy to be here guest-posting for her as she settles in to her new abode-which I cannot wait to see how she decorates! Since Maggie and I both share a passion for vintage I thought I would share with you some of my favorite ways to incorporate vintage collections into your home.
Vintage scarves are so beautiful, and what a great way to really showcase their designs. A few simple frames is all it takes to add big impact to your wall.
These vintage hat forms make a bold sculptural statement when grouped together against a dark background.
Vintage scales can make an interesting design element. Paired with a pile of old books on top, you have yourself a vintage double whammy!
Here we have a wide variety of vintage wares used as storage-everything from an old tool box, dresser drawers, crates and card catalogs make this functional space anything but boring.
A menagerie of colorful glass bottles makes for a fun way to brighten up a corner of your space.
What I love most about vintage collections is that you really can’t go wrong. Just find something you love and go for it! It’s always fun to have a certain something that you are always on the hunt for, so if you don’t already have one, I hope this post has given you some inspiration on starting a collection of your own.

Holy Moly, I _LOVE_ the framed vintage scarves! I recently bought vintage hankies as wedding attendant and family gifts. I loved searching etsy, choosing the design or pattern for each individual, and found them to be even more charming than I expected! I really love this idea of framing them, or any textile or fabric. What a beautiful result. I need to do this! This would also be a great way to hold on to handed down vintage clothes or heirlooms that are special enough to be featured but not suitable for wear – or just a ripped skirt or something!
