The owners: Stephanie Waddell is the textile designer behind the local company Agnes & Hoss (agnesandhoss.com); her luscious patterned silk pillows are sold at Jayson Home & Garden. She also makes purses and has a line of lighting through Stonegate Designs (see stonegatedesigns.com for dealers). Her husband, Greg O'Neal, who works in marketing, is also a major player in the decorating. The digs: The first floor of a vintage two-flat in Albany Park. The look: Eclectic vintage with lots of well-placed tchotchkes."We are very object-intensive here," says Waddell, surveying her living room."I just have to have a lot of interesting things to look at." On the mantel: A coterie of ceramic birds 1. collected from antique shops and flea markets, all spray-painted white by Waddell."I ripped that idea out of a magazine a long time ago," she says.
