Hi, I'm Amanda, and I write about healthy and creative living by rediscovering vintage skills!
I focus on good food, handmade beauty products, kitchen remedies, and getting crafty & creative, all from my small kitchen in London.
First time visiting? Start here.

Don't forget that I'm just a regular person. I'm not a doctor, therapist, herbalist, aromatherapist, chef, expert or professional practitioner of anything I discuss here on Vintage Savoir Faire. I'm just really interested in vintage tips, detoxing my beauty routine and traditional remedies. So if you're unsure about anything, check with your doctor or a qualified professional before you try it! All the information on this site is provided on an as-is basis. Whew. Glad we cleared that up!
