Copy Cat Chic Room Redo | Sleek Gray Living Room
· Lindsey
Today’s room is one from the Lonny archives, designed by Ron Marvin. The thing that caught my eye in this room is actually the ashtray—weird right? I actually have found myself recently in possession of several really cool ones since the closing of one of my favorite vintage stores in town, and their depth is perfect for storing knick knacks and jewelry. They’re usually super heavy and therefore immune to being knocked off my dresser or a table by my cat, and the vintage ones tend to have beautiful shapes and funky designs on them that my guests always comment on. I also have been finding them for next to nothing since apparently people think that’s a weird thing to re-purpose if you’re not a smoker. For anyone concerned (hey Mom), they’re easy to clean and have obviously been cleaned before coming to the shop, so on balance, it’s actually more hygienic than buying that awesome vintage rug/chair/sofa you scored last week. 😉
There’s not a great shot of the coffee table, but generally speaking, burl wood coffee tables are almost always more in the ‘chic’ than ‘cheap’ range. However, I think a simple and cheap solution would be to DIY an existing table using the same process from Jenny’s malachite tabletop. Here are some patterns for inspiration/color selection (1, 2, 3, 4) and some great options for a table if you aren’t already side-eyeing your current one (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). The same goes for the lamp—all it needs is some gold paint and it will be a dead ringer.
