Adding Vintage Style into your Modern Home Decor

You can even stop with those same throw pillows and still feel like your interior has been thoroughly rejuvenated with vintage style. Some key farmhouse decor options to consider that require very little work to complete the appeal include a new couch, or accent tables; rustic kitchen decor, chic milk jugs as vases or even a vintage sign on the wall. Change out some old with an even older look.

Compliment your massive modern sleigh bed with two side accent tables that have the weathered look. Top the tables with elegant frames filled with love and laughter, and you're ready to dominate this old style of new trends.
