Let's see your fall decorations since it's FINALLY getting cooler
Comments (17)Marlene, everything is lovely. I love how you mixed the red in with everything, it really adds a lot. That enamel top table looks so inviting. Great job. Arlene, I really like your rustic fall decor also. The nail keg and wooden crate are wonderful. Here are some pix of my outdoor fall, I really need to be adding Halloween decorations to these in the next few days. Frou...See MoreWhat is your favorite decorating motto?
Comments (68)"If you are never IN style, then you will never be OUT of style." I think I'm paraphrasing Magnaverde there. That's my rule for clothes as well. IMO it is downright stupid, yes, I'll say it straight, stupid, to throw out perfectly good things because some wonk (who is more often than not trying to sell you yet more stuff you're expected to throw out and replace in a couple of years) says it's no longer "fashionable" to have whatever-it-is. flyingflower, my grandmothers (from Scots families who moved to Maine - can we say "squeezing a penny until Lincoln screams"?) pounded a similar verse into my head all through my childhood, but the one I know goes: Use it up, Wear it out, Make it do, Or do without....See MoreWhat is Your Favorite Home Decorating Discussion Title
Comments (7)DAT = "Design around this" They were sort of hypothetical decorating genres or challenges for which interested participants would create a mood board and explain their design concept. Cawaps and Pal did a lot, iirc. http://ths.gardenweb.com/discussions/2407228/about-the-design-around-this-threads...See MoreFavorite decor trends of the 80's?
Comments (42)Arcy, it was not the 80s when the interest in antiques became huge - it was the 70s. In the early 70s there was a huge interest in Art Nouveau; in the 80s there was a renewed interest in Art Deco. At least that's what I noticed in San Francisco and northern California in those decades. In fashion, there was an interest in clothes from the 40s in the 1970s and in clothes from the 50s and early 60s in the 1980s. I noticed that antiques were much more popular in the 70s than in the 80s, but that varied geographically. Antiques have always been popular in places like New Orleans and Charleston but less so in places like Houston, where new and modern were more appreciated. In the early 1970s Houston received a lot of antiques from Europe because there was a lot of money in Houston at that time from the oil boom, and Europeans thought they could sell their antiques there, but there was little demand, and therefore you could get European antiques for very low prices. If you went to New Orleans at the same time, the prices for antiques were considerably higher because the demand was higher. One thing I especially liked about Houston was the way it embraced new and modern design and styles in art and architecture. Another of my favorite designers from the 80s was Nathalie du Pasquier....See MorePatricia Colwell Consulting
