Silk needs dusting...
Heh.. we caught a "25 worst design mistakes" the other night on HGTV. #1 was "no fake flowers."
I am on a crusade for a minimalist look. I'm losing so far, but my motto is "if it ain't useful, and being used, it's crap and it's out of here."
Nana's a bit concerned. ;-)
That's me. I have very few pictures on the wall because you have to dust them. Steve's diploma, a picture of Jesus, a few others...that's it.
I'm a minimalist, I just don't have enough room for all my stuff ;-)
Seriesly, I like the philosophy a lot and when we have a bigger house plan to go with that. I like Asian decorating ideas... lots of straight lines and balance and empty spaces.
Well, designers and florists are probably in cahoots, an obvious conflict of interest.
I'm all for minimalism... Our decor is mostly useful. One wall is decorated in saddles and bridles. :~)
But I've also had good luck washing silk flowers by dunking them in the sink. Good as new.
I have fake flowers. Also a fake tree.
But then...none of my decor would really belong in Home and Garden.
