When incorporating vintage pieces into a modern nursery, try to achieve visual balance by layering the styles together to create a look that's unique and more collected. For example, place a vintage side table next to a modern nursery chair as a visual counterpoint.

3. pair with soft textures

Vintage pieces often have a patina- worn, weathered or aged look that tells the story of the item. So pair vintage pieces with soft textures such as pillows, rugs, throws, etc. The softness will balance out the rough and worn look.
