    Learn More About Vintage Home Decor

    From wall art to table linens and vases, vintage home decor is any type of decor that’s 20 years old or older. These unique vintage home and living items can come from a variety of design eras throughout history including Art Deco, mid-century modern, and more.


    What makes vintage decorations for your home so unique is that many of these items are rare or they’re often handmade and one-of-a-kind. The use of unusual materials, shapes, prints, and color combinations also makes vintage home decor different from most modern products.

    The sky’s the limit when it comes to vintage home decorating, so think about which decade’s style you like the most. Mid-century modern pieces like brass or gold-plated metal starburst wall sculptures or funky handmade crewel pieces will give your space a fun, out-of-this-world touch.


    Hang a vintage wall clock in your kitchen and add a charming vintage hand-embroidered tablecloth and some kitschy vintage tea towels to create a classic cooking space that looks like it’s a blast from the past.


    There’s no rule saying that you have to decorate your entire home with all vintage items. Mix and match some retro pieces with more modern furnishings and decor to create a fun juxtaposition of styles. A contemporary velvet or leather sofa topped with some vintage throw pillows is a great way to blend the old and new. Hang a piece of vintage wall art in your living room or swap your current light fixtures with some cool vintage designs. You can also blend pieces from several eras together, like an antique chest of drawers topped with a cute flower vase from the 1960s.

    Explore the incredible independent shops on Etsy to find the ultimate pieces of vintage decor to make your home stand apart from the crowd in true throwback fashion. If you love the idea of designing a vintage space, look for pieces that have a signature from the maker for an authentic touch.


    Many decorative items from the past were handmade, so you’ll find all kinds of custom artwork and textiles that are signed, stamped, or tagged with the artist’s name. As for furniture, explore pieces from several eras including mid-century modern or classic colonial pieces. Materials like Lucite, wrought iron, copper, and macrame were common choices throughout past time periods.
