How to decorate like Lonny…

So a lot of you are asking me what I think about the past issue of Lonny.

The answer is that I am not really sure what to say about it. I am so grateful that the editors take the time to work on this. I think they do a really good job MOST of the time. I think they have a unique perspective that is definitely missing from the shelter mag world. I would love for them to feature my home in it (CALL ME!). But, for some really odd reason, Lonny is not only really repetitive with its past issues, but also really repetitive within each issue. Example: they had a python tray a few issues back that they brought into EVERY house that they photographed that month.

And now this issue, they went and found as many rooms with wallpapered ceilings as they could find.

They love to put a lucite or glass table on a zebra rug.

Last month they put this sideboard in:

This month they had this one:

Aha… Very creative.

Now look what I found at the Shore Antique Center a few weeks ago… I have been meaning to write about them….

Guess how much?

I’m pretty sure Pieces sells theirs for close to $6000.

Aha.

And now I will show you how you can decorate an entire house Lonny Style with one stop to the Shore Antique Center, probably for less than $5000. And thats including art.

Brass Barcart $125

Set of three paintings: $400
4 Chairs $295
Dining table with leaf $150

Oil Painting $1985

Vintage Luggage $50 – $100 each

Vanity Stool $325

Lucite and Brass Coffee Table: $595

French Bikes $600 each.

Dont know the price on this one… SORRY…

All you need now is a zebra rug, wallpaper, a python tray and you have got your Lonny on.
