Emily Henderson Features Blue Parakeet Rugs-Filled Craftsman

The incredible Echo Park craftsman previously noted by CurbedLA has been picked up by none other than Emily Henderson! EHD’s Jess Bunge details Jamie’s and Craig’s restoration of love and shows off more amazing interior pics with plenty of Blue Parakeet Rugs on display.

In Jamie’s words, “You don’t open up a Craftsman home and make it an open concept. You embrace their quirky personalities and enhance them where you can. It’s a labor of love really.”

The post is full of great tips on how to bring an old house up to date while letting its best features shine. We loved the tip about paint colors in wood-forward interiors: very dark or very light, nothing too cute. It helps explain why antique rugs, loved for their weathered jewel and earth tones, work so well in this space to unite the handsome millwork with modern California furnishings.
