I sold a few things to Rachel Ashwell at the last two shows at Brimfield. She, of course, coined the phrase "shabby chic" and wrote several books about it. The concept originally dwelled on elegant French, fancy, and lightly colored (mostly white)country furniture and accents with flaking paint or flaws that added character to the pieces. The look recognized the beauty of the imperfections and patinas. I believe that this concept has degenerated over the years into the "paint any old crap white and the public will buy it" belief that rules the market today. When shopping for this look, take a closer look at the intrinsic beauty and value of the underlying antique article. You will be far happier with your purchase if you do. Good luck hunting for antiques. Now is the part where I plug my websites www.EuropeAntiqueTrip.com and www.antiquesNut.com

Shabby Chic Finishing Touches

Hello! My name is Denise Robinson and on behalf of expertvillage.com, I am here to talk about how to decorate your bedroom with a bohemian look. We are just going to wrap this all up and say we used a lot of greenery in our bedroom accent decor with candles and pictures, lots of lighting with different styles of lamps and different temperatures of lighting. Accent Lighting for trees, plants, pictures, drapery and an extra pillow to give this whole luck a arm and cozy look. The bohemian style is a nice romantic warm feel style and I am just going to take my shoes off and wait for somebody special to come visit.
