What is Take 5 you ask…well it is a collection of 5 things that I think you will all enjoy! It can be themed…random…food…crafts…home decor and everything in between. Hopefully you will love them enough to take 5 minutes out of your busy day… relax and enjoy! Today’s post offers a few simple tips on how to create an allure of vintage in a bedroom or just about any room! A little face lift in no time!
You know when you just want a little something special in a room…you are feeling like a little touch of vintage just might add a touch of sparkle and fun…well you simply can’t go wrong with a chandelier! Doesn’t matter if your room is modern, cottage chic, traditional or eclectic…a chandy is something that always seems to add that something special!
 You can never go wrong by adding a piece of vintage furniture into a room…you can always find the perfect spot and it will always reward you with looking fabulous! So if you are riding down the road and there is a little orphan table…chair…dresser…or something that just catches your eye…slow down and turn around and snatch it up. Or get to your closest flea market or Good Will…The beauty and character you will find is going to make you smile. And remember…when you look at it…think about what you can do to make it work for you!
 Now here is a 3fer tip! It’s fun with 1…2… or all 3 suggestions. First you can find an incredible vintage mirror and then refinish it in the color or treatment of your choice…there is ALWAYS room for it and it will always look wonderful! Or you just might want to add a chair into the room or an additional chair. Have fun with it and make it your own. Then maybe add a little stool to place a pretty vignette on. So many possibilities done is a small amount of time and WOW does it add tons of style.
 Now this idea could not be more simple…take some vintage glass jars and fill them up with your favorite things…these vintage buttons look simply amazing…but just think of all the possibilities you can display…find that special spot and cluster your jars together and WOW…a real impact in no time and then as your mood changes…change up the filling…do it seasonally or whenever the mood strikes.
 Then last but not least…snatch up a few vintage books…and some pretty odds and ends…display them on a shelf…dresser…end table…then take a vintage glass jar …with a bit of water and add some fresh blooms and a bow…instant beauty!

All those elements together…ahhhhh sweet dreams for sure.
