not sure what category my style falls into, or is it a style?
it’s me, and i’m happy with that

“i have grown a little tired of over-careful decorations.
somehow the homeyness is lost when the decorator is too careful.”
-elsie de wolfe
Elsie de Wolfe (born 1865, New York—died 1950, Versailles, France) was an American interior decorator, hostess, and actress, best known for her innovative nad anti-victorian interiors.

well, what should I say! It IS you, that’s already the main thing!!! I went totally overboard this year after years of no decoration in particular for Easter. BUT I always, always have flowers on my table and as I did also the Good-Friday AND Easter decoration for our church this year, I brought down all my Easter boxes from the attic and I went wild.
This is – in my humble opinion – (at least) one thing: It’s natural. Natural things always win in my opinion, they win my heart, give me joy and are free (that’s not a requirement but I love free gifts from nature). It’s simple and I like it. Happy ????

Style is personal, and it’s whatever works for you. Nobody should ever have to make excuses for what they do, as long as they like it themselves.
Best wishes, Pete.

My style is like a jigsaw with missing pieces and is randomly eclectic, and is collectively depicted in all of my photos, paintings, craftwork, anthology certificates, and memorabilia that adorn every square inch of the walls in my home

I dislike those decorating magazines one sometimes finds in offices that are several years old. I would rather read a “Hightlights” magazine.
My style is casual messiness … leave off the casual!

Your home decor should and does reflect your love of nature, even common elements of your decor doesn’t have to be glamorous. Expressing your love of nature and simplicity is great!

I don’t know about style. I like animals and instruments, mostly. I guess I just don’t think about it.

Love your “style” and yes, it should only reflects what you love not what is dictated in some magazine or on Insta. I have piles of pinecones everywhere..some are so old I’m suprised they haven’t sprouted into trees by now. :) Chris

I don’t worry much about style. Trends change every few years, and then you’re out of style again. We just fill our house with what makes us happy.
