Shabby Chic...

I had the great pleasure of attending Apartment Therapy's October Meetup last night and Rachael Ashwell, creator and founder of Shabby Chic was the guest designer. It was fantastic to hear how her parents as an antique doll restorer and antique book dealer influenced her aesthetic and instilled in her an appreciation for the imperfect. I also personally loved to hear how she launched her business with two young children and got it all done while pushing them around flea markets in a double stroller. Here are a few beautiful images from her blog.
