Below are more photos from her home in LA. I am forever inspired by handmade books packed with collected images and things - loosely curated but always a theme when those doing the collecting have a good sense of personal style. In this post, I've snapped photos from my visit in her home and shop, including her inspiration journal that I kept peeking at while she spoke over tea and sweets. Currently, she's celebrating the launch of her latest book, Rachel Ashwell: Shabby Chic Inspirations and Beautiful Spaces (which is lovely) and hosting book signings in these locations.
Rachel, who most of you know as the founder of Shabby Chic and who created the Shabby Chic decorating style in the first place, has had a very full career as a designer, author, television personality and so much more. so much HAS happened in my life since 2005 that even I can't believe it sometimes. It was amazing to have the table turned and I felt a huge shift inside when she was at my signing. It was surreal to meet her for a second time, the first was in 2005 when I went to one of her warehouse sales and shyly asked for an autographed copy of one of her books. When I was in LA this past July on my book tour, I had the honor of meeting Rachel Ashwell who attended my signing and mood board event at Anthropologie.
