Please welcome my special guest and good blogging friend, Heather Bullard! She has the most beautiful blog and has just relaunched her online boutique, if you haven’t yet had the pleasure of visiting her, you’ll not be disappointed!

Heather radiates a beautiful life from the inside out and I love being inspired by her! I know you will love her too! Enjoy her post on The Inspired Room today!

One of the quickest ways to add character and charm to any space is to use vintage accessories in your everyday rooms. They add a unique quality that is hard to duplicate with modern home furnishings and gives a home that cozy well lived in feel.

For one of my bathrooms I’ve added a small painted table with a rattan suitcase for storing unsightly necessities along with an antique vase, collected bottles and several pieces of ironstone to hold soaps and jewelry.

An old tattered carpenters box makes the perfect bath tub companion for fresh wash cloths and a few collected seashells. And an antique metal soap dish holds handmade glycerin soap and a wooden nail brush along side a statue vase with a lovely rusty patina.

By taking the time to wander a few local flea markets and antique shops I’m able to find wonderful accessories that are truly one of a kind. Shopping vintage not only gives you beautiful finds but is also gentle on your wallet and the environment! It seems like a win, win for everyone.

Thank you Heather! I love your accessories!
