Vintage meets Modern

By: H. Iacobacci-Miller

Do you have an old house with the fabulous clawfoot tub? What do you do when you prefer a modern style of decorating, but you have vintage fixtures?

This bathroom is a great example of how vintage fixtures can work with modern style.

The Matelassé Shower Curtain from Spiegel.com has a classic, vintage feel; while the animal print trimmed towels bring in a modern flair without being too bold.

If animal prints aren't your style, try dark toned towels with lush fringe.

Rich, dark mahogany wood tones offset the stark white ceramic without being over powering. Rattan or wicker baskets in dark tones add additional color and texture to this unique bathroom style.

It just goes to show you that the past can meld with the present.
