You know her. You love her. You’ve considered painting every room in your house white because of her.

Leanne Ford’s vibe is like if a cloud got into art school and fell in love with a 1970s potter. It’s warm minimalism, texture-forward, and always effortlessly cool in that “I swear I didn’t try (but actually I tried real hard)” kind of way.

Let’s break down how to actually thrift the Leanne vibe without ending up with a bunch of sad white furniture and a Pinterest board that mocks you.

What You’re Channeling:

Leanne’s aesthetic is:

White-on-white-on-beige but never boring
Texture, imperfection, softness
70s lines with a modern soul
The exact midpoint between vintage and serene

Basically: California canyon witch with a ceramics side hustle.

What to Thrift to Nail It

Worn, Whitewashed, or Rough-Looking Wood

Think: old pine, distressed oak, driftwood-ish anything
Look for:

Primitive stools
Handmade-looking side tables
Vintage cutting boards with history

Ceramic Everything

She lives for clay—bonus points if it looks handmade or slightly “off.”
Look for:

Matte white vases
Chunky pottery lamps
Planters that could double as sculpture

Soft Shapes

If it looks like it came from the 70s or would appear in a Nancy Meyers movie in Topanga, you’re winning.
Look for:

Curved sofas, tub chairs
Rounded-edge coffee tables
Anything that says “I take naps with intention”

Texture, Texture, Texture

Even in a monochrome room, she brings interest through materials.
Look for:

Linen, boucle, thick-weave throws
Wicker, cane, sheepskin (but make it vibe-y, not farmhouse)
Sculptural baskets, wall hangings, textiles-as-art

Don’t Get Fooled By:

❌ Faux-farmhouse junk
❌ Anything “distressed” in a Hobby Lobby way
❌ Glossy finishes
❌ That chair from Amazon with 3,000 reviews and zero soul

Pro Tip:

Leanne Ford pieces aren’t always perfect. They’re emotional. Organic. Sometimes a little bit weird. And that’s the magic.

So when you’re thrifting:

Ask: does it have soul?
Ask: would this live in a home where people play Fleetwood Mac and drink tea barefoot?
If yes → grab it.
