Jessica Alba Finds Treasures in Old Furniture

Jessica Alba has no reason to save on furnishings. In fact, one would expect her to burn her money as she can so that she can get the best furniture in the world today. Apparently for her, the cost of any furniture is really in the design and length of time they have been around. So she is scouring around for quality stuff that she can place in her green home, a complement towards really going eco-friendly.

Interior decorator Kari Whitman scours antiques store, flea markets and a client’s existing inventory before even thinking about new furniture. “The craftsmanship is often better in older pieces,” says Whitman. “For Jessica Alba’s house we bought almost every piece used.”
