Daytripping at Nor'east Architechural Salvage. Tutu cute. That's impeccable!
Junk.
Vintage.

It can be cool, modern, and beautiful. Most of all, they give your home that “One-Of-A-Kind.” look we all crave. You can take a plain box of a room and give it architectural detail and patina. Oh! And whimsey. Never underestimate the power of a little bit of a whimsical element.
Besides the hunt is just so damn fun. So many great places to visit and stories to tell while you’re hunting for salvage. Grab a friend, make a plan and go hunting. Or check out this post about designing with salvage (and a great book to get too!).

Just remember to channel your inner designer goddess, and make your house unique with a salvage find. You’d be amazed how easy it is to incorporate a door, window or corbel into your home. Or check out how we created our own art out of salvaged finds.
