How to shop for antiques...

The Decorista March 17, 2014

I think you guys have noticed how much I love the antique look, and after all my antiquing sometimes I still cant quite find what I'm looking for. Thanks to Ebay for the rescue. While my clients send me photos of what they want a room to look like, something they don't understand is that it takes time to build a room like that, you can't just go buy these things at any old store. So, I've put together a little Get-The-Look for guys to see how you can do this kind of home decorating on ebay, pretty easily.

This bedroom is so well done. I like to call something like this luxurious collected. Each piece is so stunning and one of a kind because its an antique or at the very least a replica. It's very Parisian. So, lets look at how you could get original pieces for this look in your bedroom...

Chinese folding screen / French Louis XVI Settee / Oriental area rug / Peruvian Sunburst Mirror

Who doesn't love a charming dining room like this? Just the chairs alone make such a chic statement, you wouldn't need to jazz up the decor much more. So simple and elegant, this look is so easy to get...

Hans Wegner wishbone chairs / Metal and wood table / Shell chandelier /

Now how about a sophisticated yet bohemian look like this in the living room? Most of my clients would be so overwhelmed seeing these items alone but all together, its nothing short of chic...

moroccan rug / pair of chrome chairs / French crystal chandelier / brass coffee table / Matisse figure art

I also really adore this simple bathroom style. Let the pieces speak for themselves and right along with that natural light,

antique clawfoot tub / iron outdoor chair / white carved mirror / rustic wood ladder /antique apothecary jars

Now for my favorite room in the house, the vanity. I adore this sweet vanity look for any girl...

antique make up table / modern ghost chair / modern floral rug / antique lanterns / white dog figurines
