Dainty Diaries, you're right, boys are not offended by tea cups. My Mom once told me she decided to redo her master bedroom decor to something without frills, and decidedly more masculine in tone. To her surprise, my Dad didn't like it. He liked her lacy curtains and pink bedspreads, so she changed it back. One of my favourite things about you is how unapologetically feminine you are. Don't let anybody make you feel bad about it. You're a ray of sunshine and your little house is lovely.

It has been so much fun watching you do everything that you’ve done to your home. It is beautiful! I’m not sure when this term evolved or came on the scene, but I think it describes your house best...it is COTTAGECORE. It is a beautiful mixture of comfort, roses, teapots, beautiful china, flowers, lovely comfortable furnishings, and calming colors. I hope that gives you an idea. LOL You can definitely find it on line. But it doesn’t really matter what your style is called; rest assured your home is gorgeous!

Don't ever change it for someone else. I don't like labels either. I have no idea what my house style would be labeled as. I have blue and white pottery, a collection of white soup tureens, many mirrors, lots of copper molds on the wall and sitting proudly on one of my bookcase shelves I have a 2 foot leather covered moose. It's my happy place.
