I love different styles and I also have to consider that I am not alone in my house. My husband has strong ideas about home decorating and he loves the traditional English style. I like that too but I also like the Scandinavian old style and French country. And we have to mix all that in one home. But I think there is something basic that links it all together. And the mix makes it personal and maybe that is OUR style.<BR/>Must say I love all pictures you show. Is it from your home?Poppinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13642187184184196748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25102529.post-38742205212232189562007-12-20T06:14:00.000-07:002007-12-20T06:14:00.000-07:00What a wonderful post today!

W...Heehee...oh, Terri... so like us all, I am sure. We just love beautiful things...and our taste for "beautiful" changes with the seasons...and the styles...and ...uhm...new discoveries.... yep...I think eclectic kind of covers it for me.<BR/><BR/>I used to have a lot of pastel colours..and whites or off whites for walls...but then... all of a sudden... colour came into it. And now, even some real depth in colour. Fawn's Leap suede in the living room. Somehow without realizing it ..we ran some similar colours throughout the house in our choice of furnishings...and then continued with that as we liked the mossy type of greens..some caramel creams... and some burgundy/wines.(this is all furniture I speak of, not food or drink although when I re-read it..it make my mouth water!)<BR/><BR/>Yep... eclectic. and we went through several types in between... which was getting expensive to change. We even had Italian modern for a bit...all glass and stone,... anybody that is looking for a crystal waterfall type coffee table? Still have one sitting here..<BR/><BR/>I think you do know what you like... it will take some time to get it the way you want it...and don't forget...it never really ends... it is an ongoing fun part of it. Looking, changing...etc...<BR/><BR/>Oh, and...I saw some charger plates at Stokes today... glass centers with just a wide rim (about 2.5 inches) of silver foil ...only $6.99 ...BumbleVeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13272892605379537233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25102529.post-25930827631989792652007-12-19T14:24:00.000-07:002007-12-19T14:24:00.000-07:00Vee, that's probably one of the nicest darned quot...Vee, that's probably one of the nicest darned quotes I've ever read.

It's true of everything from decorating to writing to movies to books to whatever the flip it is. Sigh. Maybe I'm manic. <BR/><BR/>For what it's worth, I think you are creating a beautiful, coherent home. Your style will continue to evolve, which only means that your home will never be dull or stale. That's a good thing, right?<BR/><BR/>Somehow your post reminded me of this quote...<BR/><BR/>"Use whatever talents you possess. The woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except the very best." ~ Henry Van Dyke<BR/><BR/>Frankly, my dear, you are one of the "very best"!Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25102529.post-32600176185828115412007-12-19T12:37:00.000-07:002007-12-19T12:37:00.000-07:00Sweet Terri, you are not alone in your wandering e...Sweet Terri, you are not alone in your wandering eyes. I can never decide upon a style. A style is something that just happens upon me and I cannot predict which way it will go! While I dream of creating a perfect room from scratch, it has never been that way for me. My homes have all had their style leanings, I have been given many lovely piece of furnishings, I have bought many treasures in my travels and happened upon many great deals. The sum of all that is MY style. I could not recreate it if I tried! :-)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the lovely thoughts. Looking forward to many new decorating adventures to be shared in the new year! <BR/><BR/>Merry Christmas to you and your family,<BR/>MelissaMelissa @ The Inspired Roomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09711494549892860307noreply@blogger.com
