Retro Decorating Tips for the Modern Decorator
Retro decorating tips are available here, where old objects take on new décor concepts. Most of the retro decorating tips come from a modified version of the 1970s era. Tips include fluorescent colors set off with black lights set behind curtains. Room walls can be painted with large peace signs and daisies, either by stencils or freehand. Fluorescent paints are commonly used to create a retro look, as are beaded curtains in doorways or over a window as a window treatment, blow-up chairs and beanbag chairs. Lava lamps are a necessity for decorating a retro pad.
