HOW T HEY LI VE
G E T THIS LO O K Inspired by a friend of Ann Taylor who repurposed a French door as a decor with a photo in each square, Julie found a window at Trading Post Antiques in Carrboro. Using scrapbook paper and 8x10 photos of their engagement shoot in Central Park and Alabama wedding, Ann Taylor and Dan transformed a rustic item into a personalized hanging window frame. Trading Post Antiques 100 Smith Level Rd., Carrboro Christian Fittro, a carpenter in Chapel Hill, built the farmhouse table using sketches and photos of a reclaimed wood trestle table to fit 10 people comfortably with leaves. The reclaimed heart pine table was stained a warm brown.
The first choice Ann Taylor, Dan and Julie made collectively was to select SherwinWilliams’ Ancient Marble, a neutral pale green color, for interior walls. They liked how the color works with the original honey oak floors and how it emphasizes the modern aspect of modern farmhouse style. e
