Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic at The Prairie – Part Two

Be prepared for more eye candy from Rachel Ashwell’s “The Prairie” today, as my daughter and I were lucky enough to have the place pretty much all to ourselves for snooping around:-). That being said, there were guests staying in all of the lovely cottages, so I didn’t feel right in taking photos of the outsides while occupied and possibly invading their privacy.

Here is your mini tour, photos in no particular order but I’ll caption some for more info if you don’t have Rachel’s latest book or haven’t seen these yet. My shots were fast, furious and obviously not styled, but you can still get a glimpse of the beauty and flexibility of furnishings like these that are constantly moved around as need be…

The photos in this post are mostly from The Ranger’s Lounge, a place for guests to recharge.Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic at The Prairie

That Hungarian cabinet that Rachel adores (who wouldn’t!) was actually moved into the powder room in The Pearl Barn temporarily. The color here is more the actual color of the piece than in the book. LOVE.
