“In with the Old, Classic Décor from A – Z” by Jennifer Boles of The Peak of Chic




In With The Old 
Classic Decor from A to Z
By Jennifer Boles
Renowned Blogger; The Peak of Chic!
A favorite blog of many in  decor and the arts.



My Friend Jennifer of The Peak of Chic
Jennifer shows us in this wonderful handbook how to make a home layered with details many of us forget to use in this modern decor world.
She has thought of everything to give your home the bespoke touch.



The Orangerie: A spot for flowers and plants, a sunroom, bringing nature into our lives is another piece of perfection

Scented Candles Use them Everywhere for a Signature touch of Fragrance. Nest is a Favorite of Mine.




Unique Side Chairs of all Periods Make a Statement.Use a wonderful trim and even embroidered Monogram for a custom touch. 

Painted or natural wood, you cannot go wrong with one or more  in every room.


Striped walls, Murals, Chinoiserie, Whimsical wall coverings. There is a place for any or all. A Powder Rom is the perfect place for a dramatic design. Try it and you will be surprised.





The Banquet: so many uses in Living Room, Study, Kitchen Nook, etc!



Book Plates
Customize your Library, these small details are what makes you and your home stand out amongst the rest.


A Ticking Stripe adds interest yet keeps a Canopy Draping from becoming too overdone. The curve to the headboard adds interest. If you love "More is More" use embroidered crewel, tassels, a luxurious trim. When it comes to fabrics  and passamenterie the choices are endless. Make it yours and make it out of the ordinary!


I could go on; however my suggestion is  to add this book to your collection. When deciding on decor for any room; page through and add an item or more ands see what a difference these suggestions will make!
