WEDDING DESIGN: L.A. FABRIC WHOLESALE - I'D GO BACK JUST FOR THE HOT DOG

With just 8 weeks to the wedding in Dallas, I headed to LA to the garment/fabric district to hunt for ice pink fabric - not easy to find in the middle of winter!   Shawna needed draperies and we hoped to find the perfect fabric for them.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

She was excited to see this shop featured in Skona Hem and sent it along to me. <img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404329565570432354" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAJG0T3fWI/AAAAAAAADfY/Z4438B2rsNU/s400/Skona+Hom+1a" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" />K & CO is a wonderful antique shop in Copenhagen. The owner's home was recently profiled in the magazine. Their home is a wonderful mix of industrial and Gustavian styles. Let's have a peek.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAJXl8OUnI/AAAAAAAADfo/mHeH--rnoYI/s1600-h/skona+hom+5"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404329853770945138" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAJXl8OUnI/AAAAAAAADfo/mHeH--rnoYI/s400/skona+hom+5" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 266px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" /></a> In the entryway a console table with marble top was given a new coat of Gustavian gray paint. The iron roof decoration is a beautiful focal point and the vintage shelf makes wonderful coat rack.<br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAJHL_7VEI/AAAAAAAADfg/xR360luD4RQ/s1600-h/skona+hom+1"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404329571929248834" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAJHL_7VEI/AAAAAAAADfg/xR360luD4RQ/s400/skona+hom+1" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 283px; CURSOR: hand" /></a> The living room is an interesting mix of hard industrial lines and soft linen upholstery. The antique pedestals, lamps and desk, add interest and soften the room. The vintage clock and antique shutters above the couch are charming.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAJGWYiByI/AAAAAAAADfQ/G7GBOfoVvXs/s1600-h/skona+hom+2"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404329557536933666" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAJGWYiByI/AAAAAAAADfQ/G7GBOfoVvXs/s400/skona+hom+2" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 266px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" /></a> Through out the home the couple adds unique accessories that add whimsy, texture and personality to the space. Above are rusty steeple finials that once sat on a church roof.<br /><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404329326204049058" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAI44meVqI/AAAAAAAADfA/ryh0mbZ-QyQ/s400/skona+hom+7" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 263px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" /> The kitchen is a wonderful mix of stainless steel appliances, Ikea cabinets and hand worn antiques. I love the Danish hanging cupboard filled with traditional blue willow plates. Also the Tolix chairs add a wonderful feeling to this space. The owners enhanced the chandelier with antique crystals. <div align="center"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404329307644912162" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAI3zdoYiI/AAAAAAAADeo/ELl2UehHQT8/s400/skona+hom+4" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 266px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" /> Part of an ancient altar screen hangs on the opposite wall of the kitchen.<br /><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404329319709585682" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAI4gaEsRI/AAAAAAAADe4/VU5_KncDEc0/s400/skona+hom+6" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 265px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" /> The dining area also has the Tolix chairs. I love the linen pillows as chair cushions. The chandelier gives the space a bit more formality and sparkle; and the mirrors bring your eye up and open up the room. Vintage candlesticks and fluted cast iron urn add a rustic contrast.<br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAJGJtYS0I/AAAAAAAADfI/86ujVAzm80k/s1600-h/skona+Hom+3"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404329554134715202" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/SwAJGJtYS0I/AAAAAAAADfI/86ujVAzm80k/s400/skona+Hom+3" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 265px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" /></a> Finally the bedroom is serene in all white. The owners collection of vintage perfume bottles and female bust in Bronze become a uniquely personal vignette.</div><span style="font-size:78%;">.<br /></span><div align="center">With such wonderful items available to them, they certainly have created a gorgeous home.<br /><span style="font-size:78%;">.</span></div><span style="font-size:78%;">(all photos Skona Hem)</span> </div></div></div>
