This weekend's Get the Look: Decor is inspired by the retro renovation of Tina Spangler's Upstate New York cabin. Five years ago, Tina decided to swap her hectic New York City life for a quieter, more remote location. When she found an abandoned 1950s cabin in a once-thriving vacation destination called Luxton Lake, she knew she was home.
The cozy cabin is decorated with salvaged finds from the town's past as well as objects that have significance to Tina's early childhood and family memories. Her home is filled with items that represent almost every decade from the 1920s through the 60s and 70s. She believes there are no rules when it comes to combining objects from different eras and that the only thing that matters when it comes to decorating is that you surround yourself with objects you truly love.
Watch Etsy's There's No Place Like Here video to get a complete tour of Tina's retro renovation, and learn more about Tina's inspiration and the history of Luxton Lake. These Etsy Finds will add a bit of that retro cabin charm to the place you call home.
