Vintage Home Items

What are some of the best vintage home items you own? I have an old phone, type writer, and a really cool old outside street lamp sort of thing. What sorts of stuff do you have?

and I border on being antique. Lots of kitchen things, bowls, iron skillets,utensils. Most of my furniture is vintage or antique. I also like vintage garden items.

Thinking my biggest category would be kitchen items with a close second of Vintage Christmas. Also most of our furniture is either antiques or vintage. I am not to fond of new, but do appreciate my laptop! Oh, I also collect vintage sewing patterns, notions etc.
