MAKE IT LIKE MARY MCDONALD

My favorite decor book right now is Mary McDonald's INTERIORS: The Allure of Style. It's a luscious, luxurious feast for the eyes, and there isn't a page I wouldn't like to step into, Alice-through-looking-glass style.

This room, a child's room, is one of the more popular images from McDonald's portfolio. The charming mix of green, pink, and pagodas is a winner. The individual pieces are unique enough that it would be a tough look to emulate - or that's what I thought until I came across a beautiful armoire (the Julia) at Home Decorators.


Despite lacking the beautiful fretwork of McDonald's top-of-the-line piece, this armoire has exactly the same look - and it's stunning with a few just right accessories!

Great "look for less" sourcing. I love finding the low end that looks like high end.
