I Spy: Vintage sign letters from Timeless Treasures featured in Southern Living


More than a year ago BJ Freeman made a one-day trip to San Francisco from Phoenix especially to find vintage sign letters for a country home she and her husband were renovating in the hills of North Carolina.

Imagine our delight when we spied her story in a recent issue of Southern Living magazine! BJ describes why she chose old letters as part of her decor. "When you're collecting vintage things, there's too much wonderful stuff to limit yourself to the color, style or original intent of the item," she says, according to the magazine. "The sign on the screened porch is actually made using letters from five different signs." She labeled the room PORCH, she says, "in case someone got lost!"
