Fun Friday Vintage Decorating

Hello and happy Friday!

Here's a few fun ideas for decorating with vintage items in your master, or shall we call it "princess" suite.
Red and black is a classic color combination. The red walls match perfectly with a vintage black blanket chest and shabby window painted black with white flower stencils.

Be aware, when painting a wall red, it takes many coats to get it looking good. Don't panic like I did after the first coat and wonder how will I ever explain, fix this with the hubby!

An old black and white porthole mirror looks stately over a towel rack flanked by iron candlestick holders.


Pretty old iron cornices look smashing in the entrance of the bathroom complimented by some ivy from above.

Finish the princess suite off with a glamorous chandelier! You can find one that looks "old" at home improvement stores like Lowes or Home Depot. They're easy to replace your existing and usually boring light with.
I don't even mind cleaning this room!
Have a great weekend!

I love the classic, yet elegant look of a deep red and black together. You have put it all together very nicely.
