I’ve often noticed that the features in design magazines show these meticulously decorated homes with the exact same style throughout the house. It’s almost like you could take a design element from one room in the home and place it in another, and it would fit seamlessly.
Perhaps that’s something they teach you in design school, I don’t know. All I know is that I like far too many styles to settle on just one. I guess my design styles blend well together – I don’t have crazy modern furniture or use country blue and mauve – but they are definitely not completely interchangeable.
But you know what? I still think it’s beautiful. I think Melissa over at The Inspired Room would be proud that I am looking beyond the perceived imperfections to find the beauty. Or at least I hope she would be.
Let’s take a brief tour of my home, so you can see what I mean. Will you join me?
Well, there you have it. Several different styles of decor throughout my home. I do want to start incorporating some elements from the different styles in each room so they flow better. That presents a bit of a challenge, but I think I’m up to it.
Please tell me I’m not alone! Do you have several different design styles in your home?

I love that you’ve declared your sewing room your girlie space. Your chair is wonderful!
You’re not alone in the eclectic department. The thing is, I enjoy too many things and too many styles to settle on just one.

Great detail shots! I like a lot of different styles and one of the beauties of having a house on two levels is that the two don’t have to have anything in common at all.
I love toile too and our bedroom is black and cream toile.

Well you know just what I would like! Your home is beautiful 🙂 I am a mix and jumble of design styles. I find it easy to design a house in just one style or in a simple two colors or any thing else that is uncomplicated!
But, me? I guess I am complicated. It is more fun that way 🙂
Thanks for the fun photos and tour!
