Madeline Weinrib vintage scarf pillows and interiors

I love the idea of using vintage fashion materials in new ways. Vintage interior decorating is a great way to incorporate your love for vintage into your home. Madeline Weinrib is the great granddaughter of ABC Carpet & Home founder. A great eye for innovative interiors must run in her blood because she has now opened her own atelier on the 6th floor of the store where she showcases her own line of products in which she uses vintage and antique fabrics in unexpected ways. Her vintage scarf pillows are the best! She uses designer scarves such as Hermes, Gucci, or Schiaparelli and makes great couch pillows that really bring color and design into any room. To see her work and get some great ideas visit www.madelineweinrib.com .

Can’t afford the high price ticket? No problem! Paula Horlick from The Vintage Scarf gave us an easy way to DIY. Need some vintage scarves to get started on this project? Pick some up at www.thevintagescarf.com!
