Here's the idea:
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too.My question is about furniture. In what style is your home (or your favorite room) decorated?
Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response. If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link [at An Island Life]. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!
Here's my answer: When I was single, I always looked at modern decor, but what I actually acquired was what was on sale! So my apartment was furnished with matching--but cheap--furniture. When DH and I were setting up our first home, we chose a traditional style for the living room. We saved up to purchase a bedroom furniture set that we really love. It's a Shaker style set in brown cherry wood, and we hope it'll last for the rest of our lives!

I have several styles. Country, log Cabin(60's) Tradtional, and Old World. I like them all.
ReplyDeleteI don't know that we really have a style. I like all things country. Our furniture is definitely nothing fancy (not with 4 kids at home) but it matches and is comfortable. So I guess our style is laid back. LOL
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the blog giveaway wins, by the way!
I have an eclectic mix, though they all match. My favorite, though, are the cool antique pieces I've collected over the years. ;)
ReplyDeleteAloha: Happy New Year Resolutions
lol, we do not really have one set...
ReplyDeletejust a bit here and there...
not sure what you would label our bedroom furniture...
I'm pretty traditional in my decorating.
ReplyDeleteHave a great New Years!

I like the rustic vintage look
ReplyDeleteI have a mixture of styles going on here. I try to buy things on sale that we can afford. The only good firm things we have are a good bed and the couches in the living room.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
My fave room is the livingroom, it is decorated kind of beachy, white couches, distressed wood furniture, always a work in progress!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
um, cluttered, we don't really have a style...I would say it's probably leaning towards modern, but we have a lot of hand me down furniture
ReplyDeleteNot sure we really have a style. Just kind of found things that we like. I do tend to gravitate toward more modern items though.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! The style I like is modern, but I haven't been able to do everything quite yet. My favorite stuff is my bed (king-sized!) and dresser - modern. :-)
ReplyDeleteMy house is a mixed bag of mess! I couldn't tell you.
