Rec | DECORATING SENTIMENTALLY

🏡

I’m at a friend’s childhood home for the week and all of their decor is photos or kids creations or art and it’s perfect.

Dream home

I’m not sure about the exterior - maybe an old apartment in Paris or NYC, maybe a traditional little house in coastal Italy, maybe something else entirely. Inside, to sum it up, eclectic. Furniture and decorations I’ll have gathered over the years, the best things will have a story behind them. There’ll be books in every single room, and somewhere to actually sit and read them. While I’m at it, same goes for music, record players or a radio or an instrument in every room. Stationary and arty stuff everywhere, too, I’d like to be able to create as soon as the mood hits. Also, a really nice tv with shelves near it that will hold an extensive DVD collection - physical media everywhere! Pictures on every wall, regardless of if they have any sort of relevance to each other, just whatever I think is cool. Plates and mugs and cutlery and stuff will all be mismatched, the only common theme being “I think it’s cute”. Plants everywhere. Warm lighting, preferably mostly ambient. Plenty of blankets and cushions and rugs (all the floors will be wood or tile, no carpet). Some sort of cool feature, like a balcony, or maybe a window seat. Oh my god, the things I’d do to have a balcony!! Completely maximalist, but in a balanced way - cozy, not overwhelming. Nice windows, also. The vibe is teenage girl meets chic grandma, but also the kind of thing my friends would see and say “omg that’s SO you!!”

Basically mAximalist

All of my journeys and people i’ve met on the walls with unique furniture i’ve collected that has found me throughout my life, warm and mainly reminiscent of my childhood home. No real aesthetic just life, lots of different patterns and plants on every shelf along with books and an abundance of physical media. Basically where I would want to be raised as a child. Keep in mind this is my final home I would take my last steps in not exactly my college apartment or something of my early days. Similar to Gilmore Girls home, or even the Call Me by Your Name house!
