FROM Floor TO Ceiling

“I would describe my style as country primitive. I like my home to feel cozy,” Alicia says. She views wall spaces as backdrops for carefully curated collectibles like this kitchen grouping. Try her recipe for making stunning vertical vignettes:

• Anchor the scene with a sturdy shelving unit to host similar-size objects such as brown stoneware, a basket and weathered sap buckets.

• Install a peg rack on the wall above, and drape bonnets from it.

• Crown the scene with a round object. A twig wreath functions as a shapely accent.

• Create additional displays to serve as counterpoints. Alicia fills a make-do chair with a cheese box, wreath and candle lamp.
