Reduce, reuse, recycle are the buzz words of this generation. For us that love vintage this is not a new idea. I got lost in the online catalog of Aurora Mills Architectural Salvage. Only 25 minutes from our fair city, SAM offers a huge variety of items from the spectacular, one-of-a-kind pieces such as bronze elevator doors from New York City to everyday items such as five panel interior doors. Their inventory represents many of the popular architectural eras including California Mission, Arts and Crafts, Victorian, Tudor, Spanish Revival, Queen Ann, Italianate, Eastlake, and Colonial.

Thought I'd share some of the awesome items from their site with you all. Salvage is sweet!
