Holiday Gift Guide: Industrial Accents....

happy monday!!

i hope you all had a wonderful pre-Thanksgiving weekend!

this list today started off as one for the vintage home...sheesh...i don't know what i was thinking..

there was NO way i was going to fit all the vintage goodness that i love into a nine square template!

so i've had to revise a little and break things down...

so this week Industrial Accents for your Vintage Home...enjoy!

1. Sadie Olive's industrial card cabinet..oh, how i would *love* this in my studio...

2. the perfect accent and a perfect color, a vintage turquoise fan...

3. i *adore* this vintage pitchfork...ours definitely don't have this much character and are definitely not as adorable!

4. old crow farm never fails to have amazing industrial goodness...*love* their industrial letters!

5. you all know i have a soft spot for vintage stools...oh.my.goodness check out that color!! sigh...*bliss*

6. i was SO glad that beth opened an etsy shop...her french wire basket is *divine*

7. another beautiful industial accent from sadie olive...

8. scarlett begonia vtg's vintage desk lamp is simply beautiful...

9. and no vintage home would be complete without a vintage scale...especially a grey one! :0)
