“New” Vintage Hardware for the Victorian on Van Buren

April 15, 2021 by thevettelfarm

Deadwood, South Dakota is known for it’s vast history in mineral mining, so choosing the right hardware for the Victorian on Van Buren was critical! The best thing we did for the restoration of our 1885 Victorian home was to get all new coordinating light switch plates and electrical outlet plates. The small touches in this renovation have made the biggest impact. The first compliment we always receive is about the hardware in this fixer upper!

All of the light switch plates and electrical outlet covers are from Nostalgic Warehouse. We chose their Victorian switch plate, which was the perfect choice! It has so much charm and character and is characteristic of the Victorian homes of yesterday. They look straight from an original Victorian home from 1885, but they have a sleek modern look as well. We chose the timeless bronze color to contrast with the bright, white walls in the home. Each plate has a hint of copper too, which I really loved! This pop of bronze really makes the exquisite details of each plate shine. You can find them here in 6 different colors!

Not only does Nostalgic Hardware have amazing outlet plates and light switch plates, they have exquisite pulls and knobs for kitchens and bathroom projects. We had the opportunity to use their beautiful Meadows cabinet door pulls and knobs in the fantastic antique brass finish. Paired with the bead board cabinetry, this kitchen has a very vintage feel, but still all of the modern amenities of a new kitchen. I truly love products that have the modern functionality, but that beautiful, historic look. Nostalgic Warehouse has perfected this combination, they are the leading manufacturer of vintage door hardware as well. Check out all of their amazing selections at Nostalgic Warehouse here and shop our kitchen hardware here and here.

The attention to detail on each piece is stunning. They have an amazing selection of styles and colors that make them the perfect source for all your hardware needs. Interestingly enough, our home had all of the original Eastlake door hardware, so finding a company like Nostalgic Warehouse was a dream because their products coordinated so well with all of the historic hardware from 1885.

This house has stood for 135 years or more and I know that with this “new” vintage hardware from Nostalgic Warehouse, she will continue to sparkle and withstand the test of time, thanks to these wonderful accents to the home.

This is what nostalgia looks like in red, white, a This is what nostalgia looks like in red, white, and blue. 🇺🇸 An antique carousel horse, weathered crocks, and American flags waving in the summer breeze.

Maybe that’s why we love old things. They remind us of county fairs, Main Streets, front porch conversations, and summers that seemed to last forever. Not because the past was perfect, but because these treasures help us hold on to the memories that matter most.

Here’s to preserving history, celebrating Americana, and finding beauty in the stories that came before us. ❤️🤍💙

Happy Memorial Day! 🇺🇸 AI images are starting to r Happy Memorial Day! 🇺🇸 AI images are starting to really get me down,  so here are a few real collections, faded colors, timeworn details, and the kind of nostalgia that can’t be generated by a prompt. Every flag, crockery, rusty sign, and patriotic trinket carries a little piece of history with it.

Americana was never meant to be perfect. It was meant to be lived in. 🇺🇸

I find vintage books all the time, so I’m always l I find vintage books all the time, so I’m always looking for unique ways to use them and display them. For this DIY, I rolled the pages of vintage books into delicate little holders for faux florals, turning worn paper and timeworn pages into something full of charm.

Sometimes the loveliest décor comes from the things people overlook at antique stores and thrift shops. A faded book. A little imagination. These would be fantastic for any season, wouldn’t they be magical for Christmas?!?!
