The Objects of Their Affections
produced by Barbara Thornburg
What’s essential: A lamp, a small cup filled with fresh cut flowers, a very refined chair against a white wall--something about living simply is poetic.
Personal favorites: Chinese porcelain pottery that doubles as plant containers or vases for cut flowers, cashmere blankets that you can throw on a guest’s bed or wrap yourself in.
The tip: Making slipcovers from old French homespun linens.
