Just a peek...

Everyone is always asking about my own living space.

Well, here is a little peek into our bedroom. An ebonized

Mandarin sofa sits at the foot of our iron bed. A pair

of reclaimed wood cocktail tables hold whatever we're

reading at the moment. Beneath it all,

a houndstooth-patterned sisal rug sits on

Saddle Leather painted floors. The bedding is

Belgian Linen from Restoration Hardware, and

the Ikat window panels are from West Elm. The bedside

tables were once a farmhouse breakfast table.

We simply just cut in half to create the two tables.

Our den is all about simplicity and comfort. I love the

unexpected details like the vintage boat anchor resting

on the reclaimed wood table. On the mantle we have

displayed a collection of vintage shoe forms — and antique

ship blueprints hang over the linen tufted sofa.

The wooden balustrade lamps are from Arteriors.

The wall color in both spaces is Raccoon Hollow

by Benjamin Moore.
