In case some of you haven't noticed, trends tend to recycle themselves. As younger generations come of age, furniture styles, fabric and paint colors can rewind and try round two with none the wiser. While our mothers say "I can't believe you like that! That reminds me of my mother/grandmothers house" some of us just can't help the "vintage chic" magnet drawing us in.
I'm inspired this week by all the old made new.
Revisited, renewed and redesigned!

Everyone has their own ideas of what looks good, what should come back and what should stay gone (PLEASE don't bring back pink appliances!) :) it's fun to see what furniture designers decide what to reinvent. I love the idea of someone's original idea inspiring an entirely new generation all over again!
Until next week, go get inspired!
