Home & Garden: Vintage Charm

"I actually got the bicycle at Home Goods. I didn't buy it when I first saw it, but when I woke up the next morning, I thought, 'If that's still there, it’s mine!'"
"This was one of the first pieces of art I purchased after my husband died. It's by Chicago artist Peter Locascio."
"I like dressing up and sometimes I get an occasion to wear a cocktail hat."
"My husband (William) built (this harpsichord) and played it. He was a man of many talents."
"It's Mexican. You know girls and horses … I like horses."
"My daughter gave me this leopard hat from her vintage-clothing store, Broad Ripple Vintage."
"This is a vintage suit from Pamplona. The torero was selling his things because he was retiring. I was very lucky to get it."
"My daughter (Stephanie Cater) gave this chinoiserie to me."
"The kerchief is from the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain, and Napoleon — I just have a little fascination with him. Except for this year, I've gone to Spain every year for the past 10 years."
"Almost all of the paintings are done by my late husband, William. Every time I had a new hat on, he'd say, 'Oh, I have to paint you.'"
"The tile on the steps is something I liked very much about the house."
