Farmhouse style- perfect for using your vintage and antique pieces

Vintage and antique items fit right into a farmhouse home. Old windows, doors and furniture bring unique character and history into a space. They help tell a story which adds depth and interest to your home. These unique pieces have stood the test of time so also anchor in a testament for the future as well. Vintage and antique definitely tick the recycled and sustainable living box as well. Why recreate the wheel when with a bit of searching there are some amazing finds to be had in recycled / secondhand stores. I love the hunt of seeking out rustic, characterful furniture. For me personally the more shabby the better. I find often antique shops can be quite pricey but there are many other avenues to purchase quality vintage and antique items. Try trademe or Facebook marketplace. NZ has many amazing charity shops and markets are also on the increase. For the more hardy there is also the weekend garage sale rounds. So get vintage and antique shopping. Your home will love you for it!
