This one is short and sweet - just cracked open the latest issue of Country Living and can't believe my eyes! Sandwiched in between the exquisite photos and articles about country furnishings and decorating, are two very notable features.
The first is on a woman whose business is built completely around repurposing. Yup.
But the second - dare I believe my eyes - is something like "country meets mid century modern"! The lines of the furniture, the mod globular lamps, the mirrored dressing table (!!! in Country Living???!!!) - it is just too chic! And look at the lines on those chairs - straight out of Kelly Wearstler's "Modern Glamour". And they are positioned next to a red painted twig table - quintessential country decor. Wow!
It all speaks to a transition that's taking place and lines that are being mixed and crossed to create a personal style that's hip, chic, sophisticated and homey.
I'm off to do an antique show this weekend, the Mid Atlantic Antiques Market at the Howard County Fairgrounds in West Friendship, Maryland. Can't wait to "get out among it" and see who's showing what. If you're out and about, come see us!
Here's to luxuriating in the bounty of Autumn -
