If you’re like us, you’re probably always looking for new and fun ways to use your antique silver. (If not, we highly recommend you do! What’s the point of having gorgeous silver if it just sits in a cabinet and collects dust?)
Of course, we have our silver vases filled with flowers (and lined with plastic to protect our silver from tarnishing, read more on that here), silver flatware is out at every chance we get, and vintage silver Christmas décor is everywhere. We’re a little obsessed. What can we say?
Still, we wonder if we can push the boundaries of our antique décor. We just need a little inspiration from time to time (and a reason to look at beautiful antique-filled homes).
That’s why we follow these six lifestyle Instagram accounts, and you should add them to your feed, too.
We simply cannot get enough of Christina Marie’s account, @touchesoftime_bydesign. The self-proclaimed style maker is nothing short of chic – or “shabby chic” – as she calls it.
Christina does an excellent job of incorporating seasonal décor, flowers, and antiques to create breath-taking displays.
Our favorites include these posts of antique silver (duh), Christmas trees, and stunning red flowers. How can you not drool over that?
Christina also snaps photos with a combination of china tea sets, silver, and flowers – a combo we never knew we needed and now can’t live without.
