Vintage, Thrifty Office Decor

Good Morning!

Linda @ Coastal Charm is once again hosting her Nifty Thrifty Tuesday link party.

As I was drinking my coffee and checking e-mails this morning I looked up at the vintage pieces I have displayed in my office and thought I would share these nifty and thrifty old office items at Linda's party today.

Here's where modern technology meets office old school.

 My favorite piece, this vintage phone, I found in my in-laws basement 14 years ago.  I remember my mother-in-law thinking I was crazy for wanting this old phone.  I love this phone as much today as I did back then.

This second phone was purchased at a flea market a couple of years ago for $5.00 (I can't remember what's on today's grocery list but I remember how much I paid for the phone....go figure!)

A few weeks ago I bought this old phone receiver for $2.00.

It may be a little difficult to see but I'm using it as a bookend for two old books.

I found this portable Underwood typewriter last fall at a flea market for $20.00.  It's the perfect size to fit on top of an old letter file box that is from the company my Dad worked at for over 40 years.

Last summer I found a cigar box full of old wood handled rubber stamps at a thrift store.

Of course I bought them all and I now have them displayed under a cloche.

These last few items round out the display.  They were all purchased at garage sales or thrift stores.

Office equipment has come a long way.  Although I love the look of the old equipment I can't imagine life now without my computer or cell phone!

Have a great day.
