Vintage Tea Cup
Can you recommend a book on decorating with found objects / displaying collections that isn't shabby chic?
I have a couple small collections, and I enjoy finding things and refinishing them/turning them into something new. I look for books, etc to give me inspiration but sometimes to give me instruction. However, most of the books on decorating ideas that discuss using found/vintage fabrics, displaying collections, or using antiques and flea market finds have a very shabby chic style. For example making wreaths out of tea cups and saucers, and making things out of old doilies. That is not style
Are there any books that have decorating ideas that would appeal to me and my more clean lines/less clutter style that is still about using found items/what you have/antiques and vintage flea market finds? When i see a table with peeling paint, my instinct is to repair it, not crackle coat it and put a hat on it.
I cannot seem to find anything no matter how hard I look.
