March 15, 2009

his weekend's Get the Look: Decor is inspired by the amazing Philadelphia, PA loft of Shauna and Stephen from somethingshidinghere.  Their enormous apartment (over 2700 square feet!) is filled with collections of vintage treasures, artwork and weekend DIY projects. The duo calculates good craftsmanship and day-to-day functionality into every aspect of the design.

While they may not always agree on every detail, their collaborations have resulted in an amazing home where every aspect of the décor looks well thought out and handcrafted.  Much like the items they make and sell, their home has captured the playful and thoughtful spirits of its inhabitants.

Today I am going to show you how to add a bit of Shauna and Stephen's playful, art-inspired look to your own home using elements found on Etsy.  As an added bonus be sure to check out Shauna and Stephen's house tour from the video series, There's No Place Like Here.
