Vintage Printable
Friends! Find of the year!!!
Vintage Printable has FREE high resolution images of botanicals, architectural prints, old travel posters, and all sorts of other lovely things (like the two examples above). There are dozens and dozens, maybe hundreds and hundreds are gorgeous options. The illustrations are curated by Swivelchair, an anonymous biopharma worker.
To be clear, the images have a high enough resolution, that you can print them up poster size and they'll still look great — not pixelated or fuzzy.
Print one out on the oversize printer at your local copy center, then frame it in a ready made option and you've got fantastic wall art on the cheap. See a great example here.

Isn't that example in the living room of HGTV's new "green" house? It looks just like it.
SO awesome!
thanks! you have made me very very happy.
Thanks for linking. I love this kind of thing.
wow, awesome!!!
Oh, I think I will print some stuff for cute wrapping paper!
These are very cool! Is there a special way to download the images so they are ready for print? or is it just the old fashion right-click and save?
Well there goes my hope for a productive day. Instant obsession!
website does not work correctly, but looks very cool!
seriously, THIS IS the find of the year! Thanks!!
I love it! I've been looking for art for my daughters' rooms.

This is all kinds of awesome - thank you!!!!
This is great!
I am going to have fun with this - both for decoration and for kids projects. Thanks for the tip!
Oh, yay! I was JUST looking for something to hang in the stairwell at my house, and I think I just found it. Thanks for the tip!!
this is a great find, but I can't figure out how to get a file big enough for a poster sized print. what should I be doing? when I right click on the image, the files I'm downloading are only maybe 10 inches big by 72 dpi, which is not high enough resolution is it?
I have to join in on the chorus and say how awesome this is! but I'm also a bit shocked that these images can be blown up to poster size, I downloaded a few and they were mostly a quarter page.. maybe they print well anyway?
Either way, it's really awesome, thanks so much for posting the link!
NS.
