Suburban Cowgril
Staying true to her home's rural roots and love of the country life proved to be the right choice for this East Texas antiques dealer.

Slipcovered seating, a gallery wall of vintage floral oil paintings, shutters and a flat-weave seagrass rug give the den a restful, cozy feel. A pair of urns contributes a quiet sculptural touch, while pines cones speak of the farmhouse’s location. Even a cowgirl likes to indulge her feminine side may it be with flowers, poetry books or with jewelry, like these strings of turquoise beads. A wrought-iron lantern illuminates and eye-catching cerused workbench turned kitchen island. Christi combines her fondness for flea market painting, curious antique light fixtures and timeworn paint finishes in the sparely furnished dining room. Most of the wood furniture that catches Christi’s eye is either in its natural state or shows an organic patina. The sunny master bedroom features a new headboard upholstered in tan linen. Antiques, including an oak dresser and polished wood side tables, bring an old-world sense of coziness to the restful space. Christi decorates her living room with practicality in mind. Only essential pieces need apply, and while they should be pretty they also need to be sturdy enough for children and pets to enjoy. The tufted velvet bench is another example of Christi’s selective splurges. The lush fabric adds a luxe touch to the practical charm of the surrounding furniture. Despite missing a few spindles, a curved-back garden bench offers extra seating and lots of character. For a bit of whimsy, Christi positioned a few of her cow figurines collections to appear as if watching those in the bucolic painting.

History Reclaimed
In the fabled Lower Garden District of New Orleans, a forgotten home is reborn as a charming pied-a-terre.

In the living room, an oversize poster by 1920s French-Italian artist Leonetto Cappiello adds drama, along with a salvaged column and a scrolled-arm leather sofa. Renee uses flea market shutters imaginatively as cabinet doors and  interior window coverings. Renee fashioned a window scarf from a remnant of a vintage French fabric. Renee keeps the bedroom French blue and white theme fluid with pillows sporting variations on the hues and floral and pastoral patterns. Renee is an avid gardener and reaps the benefits with colorful blooms.
A small easel displays  a vintage book about the old city of New Orleans. When visitors drop by, they often head to the sunny galley kitchen, perhaps to enjoy a glass of wine with a baguette and cheese. The vintage mantle was a gift to Renee in admiration for all the work she has done to preserve and restore her home. Shutters lead to the bath, where a clawfoot tub and a Turkish marble sink on old stone pavers set an old-world mood. In the living room an intimate dining space boasts a recessed shelving area home to Renee's collection of vintage glasses and French coffee cups. The imposing pier mirror is a New Orleans original that Renee bought at an estate sale on the grand St. Charles Avenue. In a corner of the living room, Renee creates the feel of an elegant Parisian cafe with a wine glass-lined wall, stylish table and dressed up chairs. A galvanized tin flower vendor’s vase is a memento of travels through Italy . Old, inexpensive European paintings and prints, even from flea markets, create the right atmosphere, especially when displayed as Rene did here.

Practical Sophistication
Like many lucky enough to visit Paris, Rachel Mullee returned enamored with the City of Light.Today, Rachel has found a way to bring touches of the fame French style into her Minnesota home.

Rather than re-model, the Mullers gave their kitchen “a facelift.” Stained maple cabinets were sanded and painted off-white at the top and a blue-grey at the bottom, brass knobs were switched-out for nickel, and doors were outfitted with glass to show off white dishes. Cohesive tones and textures and plenty of light give a spacious feel to the small living room. The down-filled linen slipcover sofa was a $25 estate sale score. Fabric stretched over a canvas and framed French documents from the 1700s add subtle pattern to walls. End tables work double duty by offering hidden storage. Rachel fashioned a pair of narrow shelves from long marble pieces. A narrow sideboard constructed from 2’x4’s and pine planks provides a work area and storage for stylish baskets with a small footprint. Ceramic water pitchers make chic flower vases without pretension. A bag from the famed French bakery Poilane in Paris is framed as art. “It’s not only beautiful but very meaningful.” Monochromatic bedding gets a boost with texture and patterns and bring interest and comfort to the small bedroom. The farmhouse sink is Rachel's favorite kitchen update. Rachel turns unassuming architectural remnants into works of art with the help of white paint and clever unions. Here, an old window shutter and a cast-off mirror join forces to create a small, stylish and practical living room sideboard. A vintage armoire got a makeover with white paint and is now used to store bed linens, blankets, throws and other necessary items. Symmetry is created with a pair of identical chairs, wall sconces and baskets. A floor mirror adds dimension to the small dining room while cabinet provides display and offers safe storage for curated crockery. Rachel likes to bring a little In the long and narrow master bedroom, Rachel makes space for the bed by skipping traditional nightstands and instead uses a diminutive shelf and wall lamp on one side and a small dressing table on the other. The interior of the cabinet painted in Rachel’s signature palest blue grey provides just-right contrast to show-off prized possessions in a range of patinas and finishes.
