Vintage Styles Add Charm to Your Home

Vintage and retro looks are undeniably popular. And while vintage styles might not scream “cabin décor,” some casual vintage touches can make your rustic room seem homier and more welcoming. Antique accessories, retro finds or items made from reclaimed materials have a traditional look that works perfectly in a rustic setting.

A great place to start is with furniture. Distressed finishes and classic farm-style furniture designs go perfectly in a rustic setting. A bench or sideboard in a distressed white finish will add plenty of vintage charm to your dining area, and will only complement your rustic decor.

It’s not just the big things, of course. Little authentic touches, like your grandmother’s tea kettle or crystal serving ware add a genuinely homey effect to your cabin decor. For a country look, crocheted or tatted doilies will give your cabin the traditional feel of a prairie refuge.

Wall décor offers a prime opportunity for vintage and retro looks. Wall art and wall hangings made to look like retro signs add a cheerful, friendly touch to your décor—and one that’s full of vintage charm. This wall hanging designed to look like an old camp sign is the perfect vintage touch for your cabin. In the kitchen, this vintage-inspired tapestry offers an endearing look in a colorful design.

Far from being old-fashioned, vintage looks provide a certain authenticity and toughness to your lodge décor, as well as a welcoming flavor that comes with nostalgic designs.
