Mandi is completely and totally one-of-a-kind. Period. She designs spaces that are so unique…and takes chances with colors that you would never would think would work…and they work…over the top coolness..all the time. Mandi’s blog Vintage Revivals is a reflection of her passion for fabulous design…on a budget. She has made a lamp from thrift store tea pots….what some people would pay $300…she will create an even better version for a fraction of the price. I think what I love most about Mandi…is she isn’t afraid to screw up. And if she does….she is honest about it and moves on. Isn’t that the definition of learning??? Pick up and never be afraid to keep at it…and keep learning. Thanks Mandi for all your inspirations…because of you I cannot turn down a thrift store lamp…and bring it home to “revive” :)
