I like unexpected “things” in our home. I have a georgous
antique picture frame w/out a picture in our entry w/a wreath
in the center. I have large pictures on the floor w/a plate
stand. An old antique outside door leaning against
our back fence w/a huge wreath.
Just a few of the whimsical things around.
Anyone have other suggestions?

I decorated in Early American, and don’t have a phone, computer, or any visible electronics. I use a cell, check my email at work, and have my cable TV and DVD inside my armoir.

In my bedroom, there are no modern appliances, except on electric lamp that look like a candle lamp.

Well, since everyone we know calls our home the museum, I suppose you would call it extreme. We did inherit some pretty outrageous collections like silk Japanese and Chinese embroidered vintage and antique gowns which we display with a collection of “faces” which are Harlequin or mardi gras porcelain or ceramic masks. We have an extensive collection of teapots and accompanying service which we used around the house to store everything from bath salts, to cotton balls to q-tips to coffee and buttons we inherited. We have about 8 fountains inside and outside our home, tons of staturary, reliefs and architectural embellishment dating from all periods and wrought and cast iron salvaged from demolished buildings and custom made. Almost everything in our home or yard has what we think is a fascinating story that was passed down to us or we experienced collecting it. Our style is eclectic as it represents my European heritage and heirlooms and Asian which blends together to create a museum like gallery of artifacts in a dog friendly, comfortable, well used and worn environment. For some it is over the top, but for us our home is a total reflection of who were are, where we came from and where we have been.

I’m with Joanne M on this one. I love the staged look. I love chintzy. If you are into obviously chintzy things then rock it. I have fake vines all over my bathroom. I also have three ceramic deers in there and a print of two guys fishing as a reference to Brokeback Mountain. Have fun if you like chintz but if you are above chintz then go for the real deal. Try air plants. They work wonderfully in bathrooms.
