Book Overview

With her trademark style and love of heirlooms and beautiful old objects, best-selling author Mary Randolph Carter delves into the interiors of real-life tastemakers (antique dealers, stylists, artists, and boutique owners) to explore how our homes are the perfect canvas for our self-expression.

Carter's newest book indulges our desire to surround ourselves with belongings that impart beauty and meaning to our lives. Whether it's a collection of pedigreed antiques, a set of memorable paperbacks from our childhood, or a distinctive teapot gifted to us by a friend, this book is a tribute to valuing and making artful interiors with our treasures.

In these pages, Carter curates a variety of unique interiors, from a couple who lives on an island in Maine with patinaed objects they've rescued from the French countryside, to a fashion designer in rural Rhode Island whose collection of vintage prints inspires her work and interiors, to a photographer whose most prized possessions include a weathered photograph of his parents on their honeymoon.

Carter muses delightfully on what our prized possessions tell us about ourselves, while imparting her philosophy and tips for integrating our treasures stylishly into our decor. Chock-full of ideas and inspiration, this book celebrates her highly personal and creative approach to decor, illustrating how to live stylishly with the items we cherish the most and want to live with forever.
