21 Vintage Etsy Decor Finds We’re Loving For The Home

I’ve been on Etsy almost daily since about 2010. (Probably not the flex I think it is.) It’s one of my favorite places to shop and has a special place in my heart as it was also my first business endeavor and where I discovered the world of modern craft, maker stories, and DIY blogging. Back then, it was more of a community-based platform (shoutout to the forums and treasuries!). But these days, I use it to source vintage home decor, get ideas for my dream wardrobe, and find incredible people to feature on my blogs. And since I can’t buy everything, I love to share my top Etsy finds with others who may be refreshing their own spaces. Some things are just too good not to share. Here’s what’s topping my favorites list as of late…

21 vintage etsy finds we’re loving for the home

Vintage Glassware

I’m starting with this gorgeous piece because I own one that I purchased from a different Etsy seller last year. It’s a vintage Murano style blown glass art bowl that can be used as a centerpiece, fruit bowl, sculptural decor or whatever you’d like! Mine is sitting beautifully on a stack of books in similar shades on a shelf that houses other vintage glassware. The exact piece featured above is from a shop based in Canada, Three Stooges Bargain, which is full of lovely treasures. But (luckily!) as beautiful as this is, it is not a super rare piece! A quick Etsy search will reveal other sellers who offer it, so you can compare item and shipping prices and choose the best location for it to get to you.

So, I have a pretty sizable collection of pink depression glasses—wine glasses, coupes, bowls etc. that fits perfectly on my shelves. Its probably taken eight years or so to get to it, and I really love it. BUT, I’ve also been seeing other styles that I hadn’t previously known about on Etsy and other vintage sites, so now I’m a little torn! Anyway, that’s the only reason I haven’t already snagged this set of four coupes in my favorite colors. Mosy Emporium is full of glass treasures!

One piece I do not currently have in my depression glass collection is a pitcher! This is definitely a unique item as far as pink glassware goes. You can find this Jeannette blush floral 32oz pitcher at The Glass Goblins, which is filled to the brim with glorious glass pieces, many of them pink depression. Might I add what a sweet piece to serve at a spring brunch, Easter, or baby shower event?

We can’t talk vintage glassware without mentioning Fenton. Or milk glass. Or hobnail vases. This cute bud vase from Vintage Offerings has all three.

Vanity sets were not something I’d given much thought to until I stumbled upon this pink (duh) Etsy vintage set featuring a tray, jewelry holders, and perfume bottles from the shop Accent On Vintage Decor. What a beautiful way to adorn your dressing or primping space!

Vases & Ceramics

While we’re on the subject, another Murano art glass piece in whimsical pastels that I’ve had my eye on is this curved glass vase. I’m a little surprised at myself for not buying this beauty, but you have to have restraint when you find as many stunning vintage pieces as I do.

Simply Chi, one of my favorite Etsy vintage shops, always has a pretty selection of post-modern Haegar style vintage vases and lamps, and of course I always go for the spring hues like this pink pair. Here’s another with an art deco vibe. If you love this look, be sure to search Haegar vase to find your perfect size, shape, and color.

If you like vintage postmodern decor you’ve probably seen a ceramic swan or two, and now you can choose one in your own favorite pastel hue thanks to Camille G Collections. Use to hold little towels in your guest bathroom. This cool shop also offers a mismatched rainbow set of glassware that I just love love love.

Pretty and textural, this vintage pastel vase from In The Passed Vintage is a rare find.

Decor

Vintage hangers are just better. Better shapes and materials to keep your clothes’ shapes, and beautiful too. I love this set of champagne and pink fabric hangers from Gypsy and Rabbit. Here’s a similar satin hanger set from another shop, in another dreamy pastel colorway.

The Los Angeles Times California Home Book 1982 from maidermood would make the perfect coffee table book. This shop is full of cool colorful design books from eras past.

Urban Lola Boutique’s antique Meissen porcelain serving platter stopped me in my scroll, such a wonderful art piece for serving or just to have on display!

When I eventually have an abode with a proper dining or entry area fit for a chandelier, I cannot wait to find one as beautiful as this Murano regency flower chandelier from Jan Dor Design. Lighting is such a perfect (and practical!) place for a statement piece, as Jenn mentioned long ago.

This simple pink 80s desk lamp from Trashtiques is just what any whimsical workspace needs.

There are so many vintage inspired table lamps with glass flower shades floating around, why not find one that’s actually unique like this art nouveau style lily flower lamp available at Crafting Vicky.

Brass Candle Holders & Figurines

I love when vintage regency style meets pretty pastels, as in this tulip candelabra with tealight holders. Also from Etsy shop Chosen Kind Vintage, its shown paired with single candlesticks if you fancy a set. If you love whimsy decor, you’ll obsess over most vintage decor in this shop!

I have a set of my own brass candlesticks just like these from Winsor Vintage, which are in much better shape and come as a set of 5. They are perfect for decorating in any style, and always come in handy when I need tapers for parties. With shipping included, this is definitely a good price for a full set!

I love a cute little vintage brass figurine. This sitting brass cat is particularly sweet as it isn’t as quirky as many similar designs can be. If you like decorating with trinkets like this, you’ll probably like searching for vintage brass animals. I personally have a little seal and pair of swans at home.

Even better if you find a pair. I mean look at these vintage brass bunnies! Vintage Toy Shoppe is full of nostalgic pieces and books from your childhood.

I’ve always loved vintage gold birds like these that make simple and beautiful wall art. A restaurant in my old neighborhood (now closed) used to have them soaring across a big white wall and I fell in love. Search here to find a set from other sellers.

I truly didn’t intend to add this much brass into this post, but I fell in love with this floral dogwood metal art set. Etsy vintage shop The Collected Home is all about the brass.
