The Objects of Their Affections

Share
produced by Barbara Thornburg

What’s essential: A candle for light, mood and fragrance, an orchid for natural beauty and something made by hand--an embroidered wall hanging, a carved box.

Personal favorites: A five-inch-tall carved ivory bodhisattva that was my grandmother’s.

The tip: Add a layer of texture to a room by including handcrafted accessories.

“You select accessories for their beauty, the memories you associate with them and, most of all, for the spirit they bring to a home.”
