Mark D. Sikes on OKL

If you follow me on Instagram then you know how much I admire Mark D. Sikes and his classic taste. I was so excited to see him back on One Kings Lane and the beautiful home tour of his California residence. I just can't get enough of his style or his home. Right now he is doing a Tastemaker Tag Sale with some of his curated finds on One Kings Lane here. I've selected a few of my favorites from his "Shop the Look"...

Craigslist Finds

We have just moved and I am starting to search for furniture. I am looking quite frequently at the Dallas/Fort Worth Craigslist because I want a great mix of old and new. I love how you can search for antique dealer's furniture and find some amazing pieces. It just takes some time and patience. Thought you might enjoy what I'm seeing right now that I think is really great…

1stDibs - Washington D.C.

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10

I've been wanting to do a 1stDibs post again after doing this one here and here last summer so I began looking in Washington, D.C. What better way to celebrate Labor Day then to go back to our roots that started this great movement of breaking for a day to recognize the contributions workers have made to our country.

This top 10 list all started with the Queen Anne style wingback in the red and white toile from Spurgeon Lewis Antiques. From there, I couldn't resist the blue and white star quilt from Stella Rubin. Definitely some red white and blue so it's not my kind of everyday living but would be perfect in a lake house or second home.

I absolutely loved antiquing in Washington, Maryland and Virginia when I lived there. I remember making several trips to The Great British Pine so I love this pine chest of drawers. The Regency style Sheffield silver plate lamp and bust would look perfect on the chest with a stack of books.

The English flow blue soup plates would look beautiful in the painted pine buffet deux corps. I can see this in a breakfast room with the painted round table and the mix of a more contemporary look with the mid-century modern resin string chairs.

Hope you enjoyed cyber antiquing with me...HAPPY LABOR DAY!
