A 1950’s beach cottage in Australia received a nice treat when a vintage warehouse shade was installed in the front entryway. The bold green pendant was recovered from a roadside trash pile and donated to the cottage’s owner – Deborah Bibby, editor of Real Living magazine.

The vintage warehouse shade matches the worn and rustic approach to decorating the beachside cottage – nicknamed “Fish Shack.” The cottage is located on the northern shores of Sydney in a town known as Clareville Beach. Bibby’s cottage was featured on Design Sponge, where she describes her home as one with a holiday house feel, “surrounded by eucalyptus and banana trees; the smell of citronella lanterns burning; and the sounds of the tide coming in…” – ‘holiday’ meaning ‘vacation’ for those in America.
