I dream of living in one of those pre-war city apartments with soaring ceilings and ornate crown moldings. If I ever do, I'm purchasing a French antique style bed like the ones shown below from new designers Nicole Gale and Jane Jones of Au Lit. I love the green bed with the butterfly print in teal, and the other one with the large graphic palm leaves (sigh), it's captivating. Now I really want to go to Brimfield in May and comb the market... Just imagine something like this in your bedroom...
