When I was searching for furniture to pull together an art deco feel for the 2009 showhouse, I had a difficult time finding bedside pieces that had a glamorous look and feel without exceeding my budget. What I did instead, was find a nightstand that I liked and had it customized into a beautiful period piece. I added the gold trim; crystal knobs; and I had a reclaimed bathroom vanity in honey oynx cut down to size for the top. In the end it was the perfect piece for the space.


The bed was another piece in the room that I customized to create a look. I found this bed through one of our vendors at R. Ward Larsicy, Inc. I loved the shape of the head and footboards and I especially loved the double canopy but otherwise the bed was too hard and cold for my space. But, with a vision in mind I ordered the bed anyway. I sent it to my upholsterer where I had him add the fabric panels to the head and footboards. With the fabric and my sketches in hand, he was able to create this beautiful bed that added a lot of warmth and grandeur to the space.
