Review
Diamante buckles and brooches, scraps of satin and lace, mother of pearl buttons in a variety of shapes and ribbons and trims in every hue of the rainbow, all carrying a history of nostalgic memories from the decade of their inception. Jane Cassini and Ann Brownfield present their thoughts, tips and experience of this vintage treasure trove and show how these little gems of days long gone can be resurrected into the present day, to bring joy once again to the owner or recipient. From where to find vintage inspiration to how to display them in today's home. Or how to incorporate them into a table setting, transform them into something new - lace-trimmed evening bags, beribboned cushions and diamante mirrors. Sure to inspire all owners of things from a time past and allow them to impart their own piece of history for future generations to look back on with nostalgia. - Lucy Watson
