2011 Home Decor Trends - What’s old is new again

Whether they’re genuine period pieces being re-purposed or home furnishings reproduced from popular items from the ‘50s, ‘60s or ‘70s, vintage will be hot in 2011 according to Kenneth Ludwig of Kenneth Ludwig Home Furnishings, Ltd. Examples include chair frames redone in new upholstery, traditional lighting fixtures in newer brass or pewter finishes or products imported from Russia, Poland, and the Czech Republic, such as chairs done in old grain sacks, or old carts from factories used for end tables or coffee tables.
