I love the colors that can be found in vintage handkerchiefs. I knew I wanted to decorate my daughter's room with vintage handkerchiefs when I was pregnant. It took me until she was 2 years old to decide on what to do with all of the handkerchiefs I had been collecting. I found music album frames at Micheal's and spray painted them a buttery yellow. After ironing out all of the wrinkles I framed the handkerchief up.
You can also see the amazing quilt I found at an antique shop in Amelia, Va. It was neatly laid on an antique bed. I squealed with delight when I saw it and after further inspection I noticed it was in perfect vintage condition. All it needed was a good soak in the washing machine. It has some fun pattern which I believe start around the early 60's.
All of the colors in the quilt pull together the colors in the vintage handkerchiefs I think. I love how her room has come together. I settled for plain white Target shams and curtains by Shabby Chic.
