Just a corner of my livingroom/studio. I have "no problem" with hanging vintage toys, dolls and cardboard box tops, along with my paintings and assembled artwork. I find three-dimensional pieces hanging on a wall very eye-catching and attractive. The butterfly is a child's pull-toy. When it rolls along on the floor, the tin multicolored wings flap up and down. I believe it's from the 1930s, although I've found replicas for sale online. This is an original.
Another wall in my livingroom. I hang vintage beads and crafts I made as a child, and I also use fabrics hanging in doorways to "cozy up" the place.
Collectibles, old postcards and strands of beads co-exist peacefully.
A Ty's Beanie-Baby Fly rests atop a 1920s Borden's horse-drawn milk wagon. More beads and one of my hand-painted vases add color and texture to the walls.
I also like to have a lot of house plants situated all over the apartment. My violets are just beginning to flower again. This closeup shows the almost glittering appearance of the petals.
The Violet might looks cool near they butterfly as they both juxtapose themselves very nicely
