Lauren purchased the

English dresser while in

her 20s and dragged it

through nine moves

before finally having the

right space for it.

TODAY:

Shiplap Walls, Antique

Pine “Cabinets”

The 1990 s-era “improvements”

were removed in a 19 th-century-

inspired renovation that includes

HardiePlank (jameshardie.com)

walls and, in lieu of cabinets,

antique furnishings that could

house Lauren’s transferware.

“As a furniture scholar, I like

using a 19 th-century English pine

dresser and plate rack as they

were meant to be used,” she

says. On a more modern front,

they added a new fi reclay

farmhouse sink (sinkology.com)

and faucet (kohler.com).

SOMEDAY:

Larger Windows,

an AGA Stove

Lauren would love a big

window that actually opens

above the sink. And she’s

dreamed of cooking on an

AGA (agaliving.com) since

her stint studying abroad.
