Design blogger Elana Safronsky brings crafty thrift to her Toronto home.
Sitting on her front
porch, snacking on cherries, Elana Safronsky, online editor and blogger for HGTV Canada, pronounces that the contents of her Edwardian-era
home are big fakes. “It’s all garbage because I can’t afford anything I want,” she says. “I own a lot of crude reproductions that are of the era but not original.”
Carve out your own spaceElana doesn’t like being sequestered in an upstairs
office, so she carved out a work corner in the
living room for this handsome mirror and Danish desk. Her tip: don’t get stuck on labels – a living room isn’t strictly just a sofa set-up.
