Rachel Ashwell, the style force behind the design movement Shabby Chic, has recently opened The Prairie, a B & B situated on 46 picturesque acres in Round Top, TX. Ashwell has lovingly restored 5 existing structures on the property, all decorated with her signature style of soft colors, cozy fabrics, and vintage accessories. Ashwell became very familiar with the Round Top area through her many years of buying trips for vintage finds at the legendary Round Top Antiques Fair, a seasonal antiques market that attracts buyers from all over the country.
