It's true….over the years our home decorating style can change. Between trends and what we perceive to be in style based on what we see in magazines and online, can be quite overwhelming. I've seen many trends come and go through 24 years of marriage. For me, one thing that stays a constant in our home is furniture style. What's my style….Vintage Eclectic in a nutshell. Vintage Eclectic is of time gone by. Stories are told and new memories are made.

The rooms in our home have evolved through the years. That is how I feel you obtain Vintage Eclectic Style. You don't rush to furnish and decorate your home. It looks collected through the years. My favorite way to accessorize our home is by hunting thrift and antique stores.

My daughter's room is another example of this. This room is a perfect example of Vintage Eclectic style. There is a mixture of new, handed down family heirlooms and thrift store finds made over with decorative paint finishes.

I have been familiar with Sauder Woodworking Co. for many years, and was impressed by the furniture offerings today! Sauder has been providing us with high quality, affordable furniture selections for years. They have many styles to help the just starting out to the seasoned homeowner decorate their home affordably!

This dresser from Sauder would be a perfect addition to my daughter's room.

Vintage Eclectic style can extend to porches. The look can be obtained indoors and out. Of course, I only use thrift store furniture finds on my porch painted with an exterior use paint. With the exception of the wicker and a couple of accessories, this porch was decorated with thrift store finds that were collected.

Don't be afraid to change things up! Shop your home to keep your Vintage Eclectic style fresh and “new” to you.

I am smitten with this portable island from Sauder! I encourage you to think out of the box on this one! You are thinking kitchen…right? How awesome would this be in a craft room space?

Our mantel is a favorite way to showcase my love of vintage. I change it out with the seasons by simply shopping our home. I borrowed the vintage fan from my son's desk!

I would love to have this bookcase from Sauder for an area in our kitchen. I have been wanting a bookcase just like this to house my large cookbook collection.

So let's recap Vintage Eclectic Style.

  • Incorporate new and old for Vintage Eclectic Style
  • Shop antique and thrift stores
  • Paint thrift store items to add color and refresh their possibly tired look.
  • Shop your home with the changing of the seasons to rearrange furniture and accessories. It helps to keep the things your love fresh and new!

Sauder is a name you can trust! Established in 1934, they are bringing us affordable furniture with style. Sauder furniture is purchased ready to assemble. With just a screwdriver and a hammer, you are on your way to decorating the room of your dreams! They come beautifully pre-finished for a durable surface for many years of use!

    I have never owned their furniture, but thanks ever so much for a heck yeah on their products. I might just go check to see if they have a rectangular dinette table…. instead of me making what I want. I am so picky and I have to have a small size, plus weird me, I want a very narrow table….. don’t ask. lol

    Your home is so beautiful. I am loving the fact that others like eclectic also. I used to call it ‘poverty eclectic’, but now I am proud to say it is just my style. *grinning*

    Christy, we have at least 5 pieces of Sauder in our home..The Heritage Collection in Dark Cherry because it is affordable and blends in with our expensive furniture. We have found the Sauder Co. great to work with excellent customer service. Yes, it comes unassembled, but my husband says the directions are very easy to follow and simple to put together. They give you all the hardware and screws and washer(or whatever is needed). If you are missing even the smallest of those, or if a board was damaged in shipping, all you do is call their 800#, tell them the #of the piece, etc and they ship it out right away and you have it usually the next day or day after up UPS..We have a filing cabinet now that I need to replace a part but I was one the one who damaged it so I will need to pay for that part myself. Nobody can tell the difference just looking at it vs expensive furniture unless they examine it closely. If you arrange all the pieces out like the instructions suggest, it takes about 4 hrs. or less to put a piece together. (My DH is very meticious about reading instructions. It may take somebody else less time. I can’t praise Sauder products enough.

AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery sto AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery store. I could explore forever. Ashlyn and I enjoy cooking together so shopping for our favorite steak taco night dinner was the perfect opportunity to visit our new @foodlion in the Greenville, SC area. We are no stranger to Food Lion! We shop there when in NC while visiting our family beach cottage. The extra fresh produce and meats section always blows us away. Food Lion prides itself on keeping prices low and passes savings to its customers. Be sure to sign up for an MVP card in-store & online. Swipe to see more + our yummy dinner! Also, check out my stories!

Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain and cold creep back in. The weather is a big tease around here! A tip & a question! Please read below...help a girl out! 

🌸 Do yourself a favor, when you go to the grocery store....pick up some fresh flowers. They are inexpensive and instantly brighten your day. Change out the water every couple of days and most will last a week. Cut a little off the stems as well. 

👁 I recently had an eye appointment. My doc wrote a prescription for me to get progressive readers. Folks, She said that I need 2.5s! I’m in a 1.75. It’s such a pain. Here’s my question. I can no longer pluck my eyebrows with my magnifying mirror! 🤣 The 52 struggle is real! What’s a girl to do? Become Bert or go to the salon. I don’t wax because it’s too irritating. @ashlyn_little offered to pluck them! 🤣 Anyone else in the same boat? 

Favorite @lovechicos look! My So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are on sale! Today is also the last day of their first-ever warehouse sale!

Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usu Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usually have a last one out rule. I just can’t walk in the bedroom with an unmade bed. My dresser may have a pile of folded laundry for a couple of days, but that bed is made! That Amazon blanket is linked in stories. It’s soooo good! 

This is perhaps my favorite look for our master bedroom! Soft toile, linen and leopard print bedding and blankets are so cozy! http://liketk.it/3953P #liketkit @liketoknow.it #StayHomeWithLTK #LTKstyletip @liketoknow.it.home

I have not been this excited about the weekend sin I have not been this excited about the weekend since last weekend! Ha, ha! Happy Friday! No big plans here, but I’m still trying to dress up for a date night in on the weekend. We’ve been eating a lot in the dining room lately. It’s a cozy space with the twinkle lights that I don’t have the heart 
to take down. It’s like feeling like we are in an actual restaurant opposed to the daily meals at the kitchen table. Just that little extra effort makes a difference. #ad

Loving these separates from @lovechicos This lightweight chevron sweater is perfect for now and spring. The lines are so slimming with the flowy ¾ length sleeve. Guess what! My So Slimming Girlfriend Jeans are on sale now thru February 25th! All full-priced jeans are $59!

Been watching the news before cooking dinner and e Been watching the news before cooking dinner and enjoying a glass of wine. It’s heartbreaking seeing what’s going on in Texas. The people, the animals....I pray that everyone finds warmth, food and water tonight. It makes me look ahead to warmer days and carefree times of summer. This photo was last summer....I’m ready for outdoor weather. 🙏

Never regret anything that made you smile. – Mar Never regret anything that made you smile. – Mark Twain 

I’ve been on a no sugar or anything processed lifestyle change going on 7 weeks except for that weekend cheat meal. Spent an afternoon doing a little shopping and indulging in a vanilla chai latte with my daughter, and it made my day! No regrets on the sweet splurge. #ad

This outfit with pieces from @lovechicos has been on repeat the last couple of weeks! I don’t tend to wear bright colors like this in the winter but let me tell you…. this sweater changed my mind! I am sharing 4 fun looks on the blog today with some of my favorite @lovechicos pieces. #lovechicos

These So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are the only ones I reach for these days. They work with boots, heels, flats and sneakers.
