CRAIGSLIST DECORATING, VI

Last week, Stacy commented on a post requesting some Craigslist finds in Baltimore. I'll admit it, smaller cities sometimes have slim pickings, and not all of the cool pieces I found fit into these three schemes. In any case, here are a few rooms very different styles put together from pieces found on Baltimore's Craigslist within the past few days. This time I've also included some fabrics that I imagine adding to the room for the finishing touches. 

sofa
cowhide rug
tables
buffet
fretwork fabric
faux ostrich fabric

First, a sophisticated parlor with traditional but updated pieces. Flame stich has apparently jumped on the zig-zag bandwagon and is back in style, and I'm loving it on this little sofa. I love roman-style stools, and I'm imagining taking out the glass on these side tables and replacing it with upholstered cushions, perhaps in the black faux-ostrich shown. 

couch
tables
rug
settee

This is a pretty extreme turnaround from the style of the first room – this is a slightly retro, slightly eclectic take on mid-century modern style. The two chrome side tables would be placed in front of the couch, and I've re-imagined an outdated (and dirt cheap) settee in a colorful fabric by Thom Filicia for Kravet.

chair
nesting tables
crib
fabric, fabric, pillow

I've never designed a kid's room or nursery before so I had fun with this little trial run.  I love the combination of orange and aqua, particularly with lots of clean white. Every piece in this combination is pretty adorable, but the chippendale-like pattern of the shelf is particularly great, particularly with the modern pop of the nesting tables. 

Which is your favorite? Any requests for the next installment Craigslist Decorating?
