Joni Mitchell's Eclectic Shelf Styling Inspired Graham Nash's '70s Hit, 'Our House' – Step Inside Her Stunning Laurel Canyon Home

'I'll light the fire, you place the flowers in the vase that you bought today,' sings Graham Nash, on Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's quintessential '70s hit, 'Our House.' The vase is symbolic of a wonderful, harmonious family life, but it's also a physical object that lived inside his and Joni Mitchell's home in Laurel Canyon.

Photos from 1968 show Joni in her Los Angeles abode, posed in front of her window, where wooden shelves hold dozens of antique glass vases and bottles. These shelf styling pieces come in blue, yellow, and green, creating a stained-glass effect as the natural light streams through them, transforming a relatively mundane corner into a celebration of color and light.
