Natalie Cox, Decorating Den Interiors, the CPI Team. She began her career as a graphic designer, but Natalie Cox has always had a passion for decorating. “I was one of those kids who redesigned their room a few times a year,” she says. She spent years as a gifted amateur, helping her friends beautify their homes, before finally taking the plunge eight years ago and retraining as an interior decorator. A detailed interview and her intuitive sense of style allow her to glean her clients’ decor desires.

I collect Fiesta ware. I go with a friend twice a year to the Ottawa Antique & Vintage Market to see what catches my eye. This piece is pretty and functional. I have it on my nightstand as a jewellery holder. ottawaantiqueandvintagemarket.ca.

This pendant light has a transitional feel, and I really like the interplay of the fabric and crystals. Available through Decorating Den Interiors, CPI Team.

I really love old jugs. This one is great for holding large floral arrangements. I picked it up at Gendron Antiques in Stittsville [closing in November]. They know me well.
