Vintage and antique elements are another on-point theme to include in your home. Pull out the family heirlooms, Great grandmother's candlesticks, or antique rugs; now is the time to re-acquaint yourself with your past and allow it to blend into your surroundings. I love to marry old and new pieces in my home, there is something about seeing that first piece of "serious" furniture or home accent living in your current space. I believe your home surroundings should tell others a story of who you are, where you are going and where you came from.
