I’ve mentioned before that I am an ambassador for Graham and Brown, and each month we are given a challenge to write about. This month is one very close to my decorative heart : Precious!
“Precious is an appreciation for all things vintage and antique. Whether you are redecorating, buying a few wall art pieces, or simply making a statement of your attic treasures, make sure you have fun with this one. Create your very own museum of you, full of memories.” – The Precious Trend
My home is most definitely eclectic in style and has many vintage and antique pieces, some of which have been passed down to me. In fact recently I was given a collection of photographs that were my Grandmas by my Aunty who was over from Ireland. They were of me and my family dating back to the late 1960’s and 70’s. Including some really amazing ones of my Mum and Dad on their wedding day. So one of my missions is going to be to find a way of putting these in a wall gallery, so that I can appreciate them every day.
Graham and Brown have some great solutions for this, so I’m planning on scanning all of the photographs and printing them out in black and white, to keep them all looking uniform, as the photographs are from different decades. The frames above (the largest is £50) would be perfect to do this, and they come in a natural wood, white and the black shown, so they would suit lots of different decors.
Or how about adding some of these items to mix up a modern vintage look :
I especially love the cushion, and the sentiment attached!

Lovely post Amanda and I do like those frames, think they’re a great way to showcase photos.
