Many, many years after Rachel Ashwell published her books Shabby Chic is still very hot for classy comfortable decor. The words "Shabby Chic" have become synonymous with the love of decorating with time-worn vintage objects. With pale pinks, lavenders, spring green, sunny yellows and lots of roses the look is wonderfully soothing. Vintage dishes fit into this style beautifully and allow you to make the look your own.
