That was fun to look back at your style changes. I am a fan of the English cottage look!

Your home is beautiful! I always just stare at the projects you do. My style has definitely changed over the years. When we first married I had a short stint with southwest looking accessories, then way too much floral, then french country....then we moved and I would say it's more transitional with french country thrown in. I am enjoying lighter colors too.

I've loved watching this room and your kitchen through each step of the process. I love how you've used old pieces of your family's history everywhere and how you are inspired by things from the past but given it all such a fresh romantic look. And I always watch for your vintage love posts on FB!

I have loved watching the changes in your living area over the past couple of years. My style has changed a bit. It has simplified and gone from a 'traditional' cottage style with a lot of accessories to a much simpler, cleaner look - called a 'traditional country' by one survey I took. Not farmhouse - not truly country. Country with a touch of traditional in there somewhere.

Hi Anita, I love your style and loved seeing all the phases this room has been through:) The fact that you are just using family heirlooms is priceless. Beautiful!!!

Every one of the spaces you showed is beautiful in its own way, Anita. You've always had the designer's touch, and I feel inspired every time I see your home. I really like where you are right now -- using family heirlooms and pieces that mean something to you. That really does make your home unique. I'm curious what color gray you used for your trim. It looks great.

I love your decorating styles throught out the years. In fact I think next year I will be painting my trim a different color than white. I really like how you have it now, but I liked how you had it before.
ReplyDeleteThank you Betty:-) It took me a while to decide on the gray, but I just dove in and did it. I really think I would like a little lighter shade of gray, but not enough to do it all again.
DeleteOh, Anita, I sooo enjoyed this post. It is so nice to know I am not the only (crazy) one who constantly changes space design. My husband jokes that it is a good thing his eyesight is good because if it wasn't he'd break his neck falling over freshly moved furniture, haha.
ReplyDeleteIt is so interesting to see your "metamorphasis" of design change. Thanks for sharing. How long of a time frame was all of these changes, just wondering?
Michele, 2008 was when we moved in so it has been over 6 years with most of them being over the last 3. My husband feels the same!!
