apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

this may be a location issue, boomer.

here in new york shabby chic is easy to find in Soho, where it's prices look competitive. I'm not a fan. I'd rather go to a flea market or thrift shop myself and find a piece to restore or adapt. But a lot of people don't have that amount of time or arrogance.

And it's till quite possible to find nice kilims at least in these parts.

By the way, I didn't know that Pottery Barn started a madness for kilim pillows. I seem to remember seeing stacks of them in ABC among other places around new york going back 20 to 30 years.
