Star Treatment

Words by Andrea Darr | Photo by Brynn Burns

Everyone needs time to rest and recharge. For serial entrepreneur Jo Marie Scaglia and her daughter, Star, the destination doesnʼt have to be far flung—itʼs surrounded by favorite finds at her fully renovated Weston farmhouse. “Iʼve been thrifting since I was a kid, shopping curbs and grandpaʼs garage,” Jo Marie says. “Old things are usually made well, unique and sturdy. I like the hunt.”

In her daughterʼs room, a throwback side table, vintage Stiffel lamp and brass bed frame give the room character. The no-fuss simplicity of it all makes this vacation home welcome family and friends back in comfort and creativity.

“Itʼs such a grind to make a business work—thatʼs why I need a place to get away,” Jo Marie says.
