Antique Hunting
Something I love doing is searching for vintage items and antiques. My home is filled with vintage and antique furniture because I love finding unique pieces for my home. I also hate putting cheap furniture together, so I'd rather find a classic (already put together) treasure for my home. Not to mention, it's just really cool to give new life to something old. As the old phrase goes "one man's trash is another's treasure!"
Also, there is just something about the way things were made years ago. Things just seemed to be sturdier and made better than things these days. Plus I love the fact that these pieces add a fun, unique flair to my home.
