Guest Picks: Midcentury Glam for Every Room

My husband and I recently took a trip to Palm Springs, California, without our kids. It was such a delight to be somewhere warm. But my favorite part of our visit was being surrounded by midcentury design and architecture. Even the inn we stayed at was a historical building that was decorated with classic midcentury pieces. This ideabook is inspired by all that midcentury goodness. Some of the pieces are affordable, while others are definite indulgences — but a girl can dream! — Barbara from Markova Design
