Pinterest Shows Vintage Style, Pink Pig Provides It

Have you heard of Pinterest? Odds are you have because millions of people are using this online pin board that allows you to gather pictures of your ideal wedding, dream home, and recipes you’d like to try. These are just a few ways people are using this social media.

The reason we bring it up is because many of the pictures are of unique, timeless, and beautiful things that reminds us of our own Pink Pig products. The pictures on our site have that Pinterest feel of eye pleasing and chic.

Pinterest has plenty of vintage style on display and Pink Pig is the place you can purchase products that match that style. For instance you can look up vintage bedrooms on Pinterest and discover pictures that users are updating every day.

Find something you like in a picture that you want to incorporate into your vintage bedroom and search for it on Pink Pig. Say you like a romantic duvet cover in picture on Pinterest, then you can search our site for romantic duvet covers you can  actually purchase for your bedroom.

Our products won’t be the same as the ones on the online pin board but that’s okay because we strive to offer unique and high quality products at a great value. Pinterest isn’t a catalog to purchase things; it’s more like Better Homes and Gardens magazine that allows you to generate ideas for your home.

Use the site to generate ideas on vintage style ranging from furniture to fashion and when you find something you want to incorporate into your life turn to us to purchase something similar and more often than not better.

When you leave Pinterest and come back to us we’ll have all the vintage products you’re looking for whether it is furniture like classic end tables or fashion like chic and trendy totes.

Creative Decorating Tips Using Candles For Home Decor

Home Decor For the Cottage or Cabin
As the cooler weather blows in and the sun dips earlier in the day, why not decorate your cottage, cabin or home with candles adding warmth and ambiance to the space.  Fall is the perfect time to collect colorful leaves outside and harness their warmth when decorating with candles.  For example, you could use our mirrored winery tray to display leaves or flowers in red, yellow and orange with short amber or chocolate colored candles.  To maintain your vintage style, tie velvet, satin or other rich material around the candle and secure with a favorite brooch.  The mirrored tray will capture and reflect the light, creating an inviting centerpiece on the dining room table.

Using special items around the house for unique and unexpected uses is a great way to show off your creativity!  Look for an urn, a finial or a pedestal bowl  to place on a table in your entrance or foyer to welcome guests with the smell of cinnamon.  If using a clear container, fill with acorns or cranberries first, then using wooden florist wire as sticks, attach fruits of the season and fill in with flowers.  Surround your tall container with pedestal candle holders with cinnamon scented candles.  Greeting guests with fragrances of the season adds a nice touch to any home decor.

If you just can't let go of summer yet, fill your garden bistro table with fall leaves and pine cones and place votive candles in between.  To keep everyone cozy, bring out your blankets or throws, like this Kantha Throw.

Stop in at Pink Pig now in Essex, NY to touch and feel our yummy blankets in person or contact us with any questions you may have!

Bathed In Style

 Free Standing tubs of the Victorian era will add elegance and panache to any bathroom whether historic or contemporary.

Here is a new addition to the Pink Pig -  This is an original Circa. 1890's tin tub that has been completely finished with a new look by our shop.   The outside layer of tin has been powder coated in a pale shade of blue. It has an inside sheet of 12 oz. copper with the original nickel plating. The rim is made of Cherry Wood.  This beautiful Victorian bath tub was made by the Steel Clad Bath Co., of New York as shown in this original ad below.

Nothing defines your bathroom more than a pretty rug.  Here is my favorite from Peacock Park which is a bamboo mat with French script... Pretty yes?
