Flea Market Fabulous: Designing Gorgeous Rooms with Vintage Treasures by ChiChi Ubiña, Lara Spencer, Jonathan Adler

4.0

This book to me is Mary McDonald look (or as close to as you can get it with flea/thrift items), HGTV Budget. It's an attainable mix of classic/glam styling with a really great layout where Lara Spencer guides you through different room design projects from beginning to end. It's not comprehensive but you really get a great sense of how she changed the items she bought from flea and the rooms she made over with those items. I really appreciated that each room had a mood board and how she shared what she changed and how much the items were. My favorite idea was cladding foam board with linen and using brass tack pushpin to create an upholstery effect on a feature wall. Inexpensive, renter friendly, and it looked amazing. Recommend.
