decorating for boys
I find it especially hard to decorate rooms for young boys. I decided to go English with my son Preston’s room. Turn-of-the-century leather-bound books add patina and are great for stacking and placing props on. Vintage signs and ships add great color as well as texture. Old trophy’s are great vases and the silver finish is nice with antique book bindings.
Try to visit an antique shop that specialize in old books printed in other languages. You can find them at a fraction of the cost of Shakespearean books.There is a great place in Memphis called “Second Hand Rose” where you can buy books for 10-15 dollars a piece.
