You can preorder my children’s book here: http://canterburybook.com Can $40 of ordinary thrift store finds become vintage library decor? In today’s video, I’m sharing 10 DIY projects that turn inexpensive, easy-to-find secondhand items into unique pieces for a collected, cozy home. Many of the vintage-inspired accessories appearing in retail stores would look right at home in an old library—and you don’t have to pay retail prices to get the look! With a little imagination, paint, and decoupage, I’m transforming dated clocks, wooden bookends, a glass flower box, a coffee filter wall pocket, and more. These projects are inspired by antique books, aged brass, botanical details, and traditional decorating. You don’t need a dedicated library, either. Use these pieces on a bookshelf, desk, mantel, or anywhere you’d like to add a little vintage character. Which makeover is your favorite? Let me know in the comments!
