CRAFTS MAKE PORT

Faith Dymek sought out a long list of fixtures, fabrics and information resources to restore her family’s house in keeping with its original Craftsman aesthetic. Among her go-to sources: Crown City Hardware in Pasadena: “We wanted latches and hinges for several new windows to match the 1909 hardware,” Dymek said. “I set out hoping to come close, but Crown had the exact pieces — in stock.” restoration.com.

Historic Lighting in Monrovia: “Historic helped us create custom outdoor lanterns and a dining room chandelier that combines mahogany framing made locally with glass shades handblown in San Francisco.” historiclighting.com. Archive Edition Textiles in Hawthorne: “Archive had period fabrics to reupholster sofas and make bedspreads, pillows and table runners.” archiveedition.com.

American Bungalow magazine: “The directory of advertisers is awesome, and the articles detailing restorations all over the U.S. are great.” ambungalow.com. Craftsman Weekend Exposition Show & Sale: Pasadena Heritage’s annual event is scheduled for Oct. 19 to 21 this year. “Amazing resource,” Dymek said. “I met artisans from around the country who knew how to approach stripping our woodwork and staining our replacement shingles.”

Gamble House in Pasadena: “I went on tour after tour and studied the casement window treatments, then had similar ones made of wood for our daughter’s room.”
