(More customer reviews)Rachel Ashwell had a show called "Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic" on Style Network a few years back. Her company has just released three DVDs from that series: (1) Treasures (2) Gifts, Sentiments & Romance and (3) Flowers, Petals & Gardens.
Each DVD contain 3 episodes so if you buy all three DVDs you will own 9 episodes from the original series. There are many more episodes yet to be released, depending on how well these three initial DVDs sell they'll consider putting out more DVDs. So, if you are a fan of Rachel Ashwell and want to see more please buy all 3 DVDs. The more demand there is the more likely they'll release the rest of the series onto DVD. But if you can only buy one then get this one, it's the best of the three because it is on this DVD that she focuses on home furnishings.
Here is what you get on this DVD:
1- House
2- Flea Market
3- Affordable Elegance
In the HOUSE episode Rachel has just bought a home in LA for her parents to stay in whenever they visit from England. Simple renovations transform a 1940's home into the epitome of Shabby Chic...and she does it on a limited budget in only 5 weeks time.
In the FLEA MARKET episode you watch as Rachel and her partner Mark search a local antiques flea market for its treasures. She spots her signature colors (white, pink and green) and well-crafted furniture from days gone by. Rachel appreciates these depreciated pieces (a time worn cabinet from Iowa, a cupboard from the turn of the century, etc) for their history, whimsy, beauty and function. They take their finds back to the shop where Mark cleans them up with some quick & easy restoration work. The Shabby Chic principal is to accept imperfections rather than change them.
The last episode on this disc is GIFTS, SENTIMENTS & ROMANCE. Rachel visits the home of her friend, Hollywood hairdresser Chantal Clautier. Chantal has created the ideal Shabby Chic retreat by using authentic antiques and flea market finds. You won't see this home in any of Rachel's books, you'll have to buy the DVD to see this gorgeous home!
