House Rules

Flea market finds: Christine Salenga shops flea markets for inexpensive, one-of-a-kind décor. That’s where she collected small, hand-painted pictures of Texas scenes, like bluebonnet fields, which she grouped above the headboard in her son’s bedroom. On a table at the foot of the bed, she stacked a set of vintage school primers, also found at a flea market.

Salvage solutions: The couple shopped at architectural salvage stores to find corbel molding for their dining room and a front door inset with a stained-glass window. Years ago they found an entire framed window with a stained-glass cross that had been salvaged from a church. It now leans against the actual windows in their living room, acting as art and a sun catcher.

Reupholstery rewards: Several chairs in the couple’s home are from thrift stores or hand-me-downs. The couple had them reupholstered, two in cowhide and one with a serape purchased in Mexico. The cost of the labor and fabric was significantly less than the cost of buying new furniture.

Curious quirks: Living in a historic home can mean dealing with its actual history. At some point in time, the Salenga home housed a fireworks distributor, and the couple often will find packages of fireworks samples with their mail. “Our first New Year here we had sparklers, and we didn’t even buy them,” Rene Salenga says.

Rene and Christine Salenga have a motto: “We work in Katy. We live in San Antonio.”

During the week the couple lead demanding professional lives in the Houston area. Many weekends they downshift by retreating to the Victorian house they own near downtown San Antonio.

But soon, they and their son will live there full-time, bringing the couple back to the city where they grew up. They've designed it as their retirement home and say they are delighted with it.
