Step back in time to a treasure trove that’s chock full of vintage style – both real and re-imagined. Count on lots of found objects, reclaimed woods and metals to endow a lived-in, rustic air, enlivened by vibrant folkloric patterns, homestyle crewel stitching and chunky, tactile fabrics. It’s all about warmth and welcome, but scores high marks on style, too, with an endearing mix of cultures, colors and charm.  — Tracy Bulla
