Edit: I am just going to let this one ride & call it Vintage Photo Friday. I am up to my eyeballs in boxes. Will catch up with you all soon!
A while back on Vintage Photo Friday, there was some discussion & sharing of ideas for storing/displaying vintage photos.
I was excited to find inspiration in this vintage napkin holder at the thrift store today (Happy Anniversary Pat & Charlie)! I picked it up because I am a sucker for metal and swirls, then I put it down thinking it wouldn’t really work with our cloth napkins. But bam, I thought photos. I also thought I would paint it but decided I liked the yellow with the photos. Yellow is a color I am always surprised I like.
The photos in front are from my last trip to Brimmfield. I am trying to scale my (non-family) photos down to just a few collections, vintage marching bands, vintage construction photos, and people at the beach.
I love the bathing suits on the people in the front and the suit suits on the guys in the back!
Ok, she does not fit my “rules” but just look at her. I wonder where she is going and if she is more excited than she is letting on. Truthfully, I am not sure if it was her or the bus I was more taken with when I plucked her from the pile that chilly Brimmfield day.
Any more ideas for how to display vintage photos? Leave a link if you feel like sharing.
