50 People Who Live In Their Dream Homes They Decorated Themselves

Most of you won’t like my admittedly niche aesthetic but I’m just saying…there shouldn’t be any rules about decor except for doing what pleases you and the other people who live with you (and why that’s a hot take, I’ll never know)

I’m in my fifties and I’ve been collecting interesting old junk since I reached adulthood. I’m not sure what drives my passion for the most audacious decor of my first decade alive, but the heart wants what it wants, and it causes no harm :)

The kids took over the basement, so I switched things up! 90% thrifted!

Brb will go make a coffee and sit to zoom on every detail. Wow!

I surprised her and recorded her reaction. She loved it.

My husband and I built our (forever) home in 2011, doing the work and contracting out what we couldn’t do ourselves. We’ve added on and updated over the years, so the house has grown and changed along with us. It’s pretty sacred to us now. This is my fave room.. what used to be non-existent, then added on as a screened-in porch, and remodeled as our sunroom/entrance. The tile is a sun-dried clay Satillo with talavera accent pieces, both made in Mexico. We designed the door with symbolic intention and had a carpenter in Turkey carve it for us. I don’t know what “style” I fit with… I just go with my vibe.. but our house is pretty much all varieties of wood, stone, slate/black, natural lighting and green vegetation/color pops from flowers like orchids or bouquets that I pick from my gardens. I think back in the day, they said brown/black never go together, but that’s pretty much my MO. 😅 In the past, I really loved sharing photos of our home and gardens online, but disconnected from social media a while back and decided to join Reddit this week. Thought maybe this might be a better community to share my home (art) with and give me that outlet back (a little at least 😉) enjoy! 🖤
