If you have been around with me from the beginning, you know that my style has changed dramatically since the start of this blog – and I mean dramatically. It evolved from something more rustic and a touch Pottery Barn-ish to not-a-distressed-piece-in-sight, bold and unapologetic.
And I really love the latter.
It took a while, but I figured out what is truly my style. I don’t think I could even put a definite name on it and I’m ok with that. It’s bold, sometimes random, always fun, usually full of memories and as I said – unapologetic. I won’t apologize for not sticking to the “decorating rules” by mixing cowboys hats with a gold confetti wall or decorating with a styrofoam mohawk sucker holder I made.
For this spring home tour round, since we are moving soon, I don’t really have any new stuff to show you, so I thought it would be fun to see the evolution of the spaces in my home. I won’t go all the way back with photos of when we first got the Beloved Foreclosure (you can click through on the links to see those), but you will see the “finished spaces” – as they’ve been “finished” multiple times.
As always, thanks to the wonderful Marty from A Stroll Thru Life who puts together these home tours just about every season. She’s a sweetheart and has a wonderful style all her own. Be sure to check out her home tour along with others at the end of this post.
