Vintage family photo cushions from Zoe de Las Cases

Cousin
Looking for something more unusual to put onto your sofa? Take a look at Zoe de Las Cases' cushions which are based on vintage family photos.

The Paris-based designer has printed the photos onto fabric and shaped into a cushion. Though the subjects of the photographs are unknown, they will instantly remind you of your own old family snapshots. The design pictured is called cousins and there's also a design based on a group of sisters. The nostalgic subject matter is further enhanced by the colour tinting of the image. 

The cushion costs £23.75.

Il_570xN.157583092

This vintage-inspired print of a lomography photo of New York is shot with a Holga camera and gives a retro-looking soft finish to the picture.

You can buy a print of the photo, entitled "New York City looking downtown" which was shot with a Holga CFN toy camera. The camera creates a dreamy lense and was taken with a Delta 2300 film to enhance the grainy quality of the photo.

It can be shipped from America for $6 and is 8 x 8 inches and costs $35 (£22.38) from Etsy.

Tiki Lounge Sign

Il_570xN_221723823 
Wood lettering making proclamations of “Home”, “Eat” or “Love” are pretty common, but this is the first Tiki Lounge Sign I’ve seen.

It has been created by Etsy seller, Studio 724 using baltic birch, which has been distressed and given a blue finish, adding to its vintage look. It would look good hung above your home bar next to your Shag print. There is also a diner sign in a similar style. It costs around £30 plus extra for shipping, prices of which the seller will provide if you ask.
