Why do you love shopping vintage? And how does sustainability factor into your choices of new products vs. vintage finds?
With any project I work on, it is very important to me to leave my clients’ house feeling full of soul and warmth. So much of that soul comes from vintage, which can make a room go from stiff to cozy. Vintage finds are pieces that make the room sing.
Are there any dream vintage or antique pieces you wish you could have?
Do you have three or four hours?
