	Gustav Stickley's Arts and Crafts world
		For Stickley, a furniture designer and leader of the American Arts and Crafts movement in the early 20th century, the "simple life" embraced handcrafted furnishings, natural materials and families gathered around the hearth in unpretentious bungalows -- the perfect antidote for unsettling times.
		Stickley's heyday was the beginning of the machine age, a change-filled era with the whiplash intensity of our own.
		Today, the Stickley Museum at Craftsman Farms is a mecca for collectors and decorative-arts historians, enthralled with the founder's signature furniture, his linens emblazoned with poppy and pine-cone motifs and the original pendant lighting hanging from massive ceiling beams.
