I'm styling the house for summer & looking to Island Life for inspiration
The clean feeling of the Harbor Island homes & hotel owned by India Hicks is perfect
I love the way she uses heirloom 'objet' to personalize living spaces
With Hicks in mind, I scoured local flea markets, consignment shops & antique malls for pieces that channel India's mojo...
Anchor andirons with perfect patina
Antique butler's tray w/traditional inlay
Vintage faux bamboo vase {for a handful of palm leaves}
Antique hot printing plate drawer, to fill with the treasures of Summer
Vintage garden concrete bird's nest
Pair of vintage pineapple lamps updated with shades from a West Elm outlet
Antique postcard to enlarge 10x & place in a simple black frame from IKEA
Priceless heirlooms? $710
That was a fantastic haul of treasures from the shops, well done! I particularly like the faux bamboo vase and the pineapple lamps. Are the lamp bases Casa Pupo? It's getting very collectable these days.
ReplyDeleteAlso loved the description of your father's shopping sprees.. bay rum and tobacco. I miss that.
just love keeping inspired by browsing images of india hicks indulgences.
