Toile, quilts, French furniture, blue and white porcelains...do
they work in a cabin bedroom? You bet your ticking stripes they do! See for
yourself:
This beautiful weekend cabin bedroom is Interior Designer
Charles Faudree's own. As if the plush upholstery, striped curtains and bed
hangings, and antique Oriental carpet weren't enough, Faudree has accessorized
this room to the max (as he does in all his rooms). It all adds up to
super-inviting mountain comfort.
The old logs and stone fireplace are given new life with this
elegant collection of crisp cottons. I love the mix of found antlers, ferns and
logs with French porcelains, silver knick-knacks and silk lamp shapes. Faudree
loves to add what he calls an "instant ancestor" to his rooms and
here you see this in the oil painting hanging over the mantle.
The emphasis here is on elegance over rusticity, and I have to
say that I, for one, love it that way.
