This weekend's Get the Look: Decor is inspired by the sweet and charming Seattle home of Tif Fussell. Tif runs dottieangel, an inspiring blog focused on home decor, family life and vintage treasures. She also runs a successful Etsy shop at dottieangel.etsy.com, where she sells revamped vintage slips and beautifully crafted aprons, pillows, dish towels, and other items to make your home look pretty.
Tif's home features a lovely mix of modern and vintage, along with many special handmade touches that give every room a sense of homey sweetness. Her amazing collection of vintage and designer linens really caught my eye. These textiles can be casually draped on a sofa, patched together to create unique curtains, quilted into a gorgeous fireplace screen or even used to revamp a vintage dresser or cupboard.
Visit Tif on flickr to view more photos of her charming home. Check out the Etsy Finds below for creative decorating ideas to add a bit of color, pattern and texture to the place you call home.
Add a touch of industrial modern to your home office or studio with this amazing vintage desk. From fusionfurniture, $720.
This hook is a perfect way to display a sentimental piece of jewelry, your favorite vintage scarf or a beautifully handmade dish towel. By monkeyandsquirrel, $15.
Vintage Dish Set - Four Place Settings - Temperware
Breakfast, lunch and dinner will taste all the sweeter when eaten off of these adorable floral vintage dishes. From vintagerenaissance, $70.
Shabby Painted 1930's China Cabinet / Cupboard - Chic
What better way to display a collection of vintage or handmade dishes than with a beautifully revived cupboard? By royaloakcottage, $450.
Remind yourself of the good things in life 24 hours a day with this gorgeous embroidered clock. From vintology, $44.
Vintage Wallpaper - 1 double roll
I admire the bold patterned wallpaper featured throughout Tif's home. This roll of vintage paper could transform an entire room, or use it as an accent to dress up an old dresser or lamp shade. From menzocollection, $49.
Mid Century White Ceramic Lamp Base
I love the combination of mid century modern decor with handcrafted elements. This gorgeous modern lamp would look perfect with a lampshade like the one below. From thebrickhouse, $40.
I love the cheery colors and vintage style of this handmade lampshade, which was created from an old crewel embroidery. By Sassyshades, $52.
30 in Pet Air Bed - Sustainable Canvas-n-Flannel Slip Cover
Keep your pet comfy in style with one of these ingenious air beds, which are available in a wide variety of patterns and colors. By gertiegearstore, $45.
Tif's home is filled with Orla Kiely designed fabrics and wallpaper. This adorable cross stitch was inspired by the sense of texture and rhythm found in Orla's designs. By wallwork, $70.
These beautifully handcrafted mugs will make your usual morning cup of coffee or tea a special daily ritual. By jillrosenwald, $50.
Beach Glass Knob, Drawer pull, Cabinet, or Furniture Knobs
These sanded glass tile knobs are a unique way to brighten up your kitchen or bathroom. By beachyrustica, $11.
Vintage Bamboo Kokeshi Doll Pair Signed
I was excited to see a small collection of Kokeshi dolls on display in Tif's home. I love this sweet handpainted mother and daughter duo. From AustinModern, $32.
Vintage Filgree Smoky Mirrored Wall Sconce
An ornate vintage wall sconce is a simple way to jazz up a hallway or entryway. From MarcellasExcess, $17.
I love the charming handmade banners and pennants hanging in Tif's bedroom and backyard. The combination of modern black with screenprinted antique doilies would fit in perfectly with her home decor. By monpetitfantome, $20.
Handknit Hanger Covers (orange/ecru)
You'll want to display these hangers where everyone can see, rather than hiding them away in a closet. From strikk, $8.50.
Levity Lette Lingerie Set - Bralette / Taplette - Custom Colors
A clever way to add a romantic touch to a bedroom is by displaying dainty lingerie. It looks even better when hung on a handmade hanger, like the one featured above. By undertheroot, $55.
I'm a total sucker for anything that is crocheted, and from looking around her home, I think Tif might be too. By Monicaj, $155.
Vintage Metal Trash Can with Mosaic Pattern
This adorable trash can will have you doing a little dance every time you throw something away. From ModishVintage, $27.
The graphic patterned background and antiqued steel of this wonderful hook are a perfect combination of old and new (as well as functional). By thecrosbie, $24.
Fantastic Vintage Retro Anker Sunburst Wall Clock
This awesome vintage clock tells me it is time to redecorate. From artyczechs, $49.

I love the top right photo - the way Tif's wonderful wallpaper flows down and melds perfectly with her rug. Of course I love the crochet touches. I'm inspired to make a doily! Thank you - lovely article.

I love the butterfly hanger,,everything here is so romantic.
It inspires me too like choconaut said,to add some vintage elements to my home...Like a tea set of old silver I found,looks so stylish and it gives a touch of personality.

Does that office have bare subfloors? I've seen subfloors many a time in my quest to lay hardwood, but I've never had the nerve to leave them bare for long. Gives it an unfinished look. Interesting.

Nice Picks. The glass knobs really perk up the white cupboards, and that desk is to die for. Oh, I heart it with much love.
Kokeshis are hard to resist, my partner found one tonight, that I am totally keeping, sorry shop.

Very nice items, especially "vintage dishes. From vintagerenaissance"
kitschandcurious
Some lovely things here, but how is it okay to feature a piece of work 'inspired' by Orla Kiely? It is a straight copy of her trademark design. I have no problem with someone making and selling this (that's up to Orla Kiely), but surely 'Etsy Finds' should be about original designs?
bluecorduroy
i so love dottie angel's style. the perfect mix of vintage, modern and handmade. always eye opening!
menzocollection
Fabulous items! And thanks so much for featuring the roll of vintage wallpaper in my shop. I have been scratching my head, trying to figure out where the huge increase (over 500+ views and counting) in traffic was coming from! Even the Google Analytics tool didn't help me narrow it down. Today I finally did a straight Google search for my shop name, and there it was. :) Thanks again!
shopgoodgrace
oh my goodness. Great finds!
And I do love Tif's blog... she has an absolutely delightful writing style ~ along with her keen eye for beautiful things... makes for a lovely read!! :)
