At Home.
A little peak at some of my favorite details in the apartment. Our apartment was built in 1906, a Queen Anne Revival Duplex. All of the historic features have been kept, including the original floors - aged but beautiful. I have tried to decorate this space according to it’s history and the feeling it invokes. I find myself naturally gravitating towards a classic, English cottage feel with a bit of a modern Parisian vibe. Almost everything in our home has been thrifted, antiqued or passed down to us which makes the space feel even more special! I plan to do a more in-depth tour very soon, but for now I hope you enjoy this little bit of beauty!
These toile upholstered chairs were a family find and I love the color and how comfortable they are. The portrait in the back was a $40 junk shop find and I still can't get over it!
This secretary was a gift from my husband for my 29th birthday. I re-wallpapered the interior with William Morris & Co. Strawberry Thief and have decorated the shelves with vintage busts, books on Coco Chanel and pretty glassware.
The mantle in our dining room is my favorite. The home of a large antique gilded mirror that I fondly refer to as my Primrose dupe (iykyk) and this beautiful dried floral arrangement from The Someday Shop. A photo of us from our wedding and my nana and great aunt have found their permanent home in corner of the mirror.
Our bar cart is one of our favorite pieces in the house, a secondhand piece from best friends of ours who were moving. Above it have two prints hanging (I'm obsessed with old prints of England) and this little chandelier that I also found in a junk shop for $15.
My coffee table is always housing a stack of art and interiors books, a bundle of sage, a favorite candle and fresh flowers. However, the arrangement of all of the above varies almost daily.
Our dining room table and chairs are a mix of antique finds and family heirlooms. We love to sit here when we have guests over.
Fresh flowers are always around in our home. I particularly love white roses.
