Home Interiors: Vintage Bedroom Ideas

Looking for some vintage bedroom ideas? I sure am! I love incorporating the decor of decades past, and I’m fascinated by the return of decade-specific trends, such as the lacquered furniture of the 1980s. In fact, some trends span multiple decades, such as the use of brass in accent pieces like lamps and figurines.

When you hear the word “vintage,” you might think of floral quilts, charmingly worn bedside tables and your grandmother’s china collection. But today’s post shines the spotlight on the vintage-meets-modern bedroom. And I’ve deliberately focused on the second half of the 20th century, including the 1970s and the 1980s–two decades that are often overlooked. Let’s explore a truly unique set of vintage options, including ways that you can update retro decor for the modern home…

Tapered legs, striking silhouettes, and abstract art are a few of the features you’ll find in the Mid-Century modern home. With a plethora of solid wooden pieces to choose from, many of which have held up beautifully over time, it’s no wonder the clean lines and sleek forms of this era are a consistent favorite among design enthusiasts.

Mixing old with new is definitely something we practice, sometimes, even unconsciously.

Below we see a modern bedroom that’s heavily steeped in Mid-Century style.
