One of her heaviest pieces is a traditional
German schrank (pronounced shrunk) that is
so large it took a friend's SUV to haul it home
from the German antique store. Once she
managed to put it into place, Mannell filled
it with blankets and pillows and such. Well,
that's what she thinks is in there.
"e movers lost the key to it when we
moved back to the United States," she said. "I
gave up trying to get in it. I still don't know
what's exactly in there."
Steve Mannell has since retired from the
Army, but the memories from the couple's
military days live on in their cheerful, light-
filled home. Best of all, Megan Mannell has
a knack for mixing in all those traditional
collectible pieces with furniture and
accessories in more contemporary colors,
such as gray, lime and teal. Whimsical Easter
bunnies and their carrots look right at home
surrounded by all those European finds.
e Mannells' three children, daughters
Tessa and Ava and son, Tate, are old enough
now to appreciate their mother's style, in
particular those Easter eggs.
"When they were little, we didn't take them
out," she said. "Now they love to see them when
I take them out."
The Easter eggs make up just part of
the treasures collected over the years.
Shelves in the living room are filled
with pieces of cobalt blue and white
Polish potter y that are as durable as
they are decorative.
