The Resurrection of Chic

Picture_2

     To me, one of life's greatest joys is waking up early, grabbing a latte and looking for that diamond in the rough. Still, there are flea market staples I see all the time that no one seems to be able to find a use for -  racks of holey, leather jackets well-past their prime, mismatched silverware, discarded drawers with no home - the list goes on...   The ladies at Wis Design in Stockholm tackled just such a problem - the result being one of the most whimsical collections I've seen in awhile. 
    The Decades chest of drawers (above) is made  from rescued one-off drawers they gave a new home to.

  Made entirely from unwearable leather jackets a modern chair gets a touch of craft with the simple addition of  beautiful, scalloped leather trim this plain white chair become somewhat of an art piece. Gorgeous!

   Even that old jewelry you don't ever seem to wear becomes instantly chic when adorning this stylish metal lamp, no?
