Without realizing it, I stumbled across a trend in decorating that I had no idea existed. It seems that many people are using vintage magazine ads as home decorations. For example, if you have a home bar, you may be interested in framing some old Ballantines ale or Jack Daniels ads. If your first car was a 1969 Chevelle, you may want to frame a vintage Chevrolet ad. Colorful full page ads seem to spark the most interest. I've heard all sorts of great ideas from people. The latest was a customer that was going to wallpaper their bathroom with vintage soap and perfume ads. Truly creative! While magazine ads are a great decorating idea, I've also found that some well placed antique tools can be very attractive as well.
