My Home Style, part deux

January 10, 2011 by Laura

So, last year when we were looking for homes I took a home style quiz. Check out my original post here: My Home Style.

Sproost.com told me my style was 67% Nantucket Style and 33% Cottage Chic. It totally suited me and is represented in the two pictures above. When we got into our home and I began picking colors and fabrics, I realized that while it was mostly true I was getting outside of this zone.

It freaked me out a little, so I went back and took the quiz again. This time, I have been told that my style is 75% Nantucket Style and 25% Modern Elegance. When I did my New Year’s Resolution post, I realized my bedroom was going in a totally different direction than my living room that I wanted to feel like a Nantucket house. The bedroom has the bolder colors and accessories portrayed in these two pictures as opposed to the softer colors and subdued accessories I have in the living area of our house.

It was a lot of fun for me to go back and take the quiz again. Pictures I used to hate (like the one above) now feel good to me. I like the way the furniture is arrange, the height of the drapes and the clean lines of the furniture. I can look past the brown couch now and see the overall feel for the room. Check it out and do the quiz yourself! Are you surprised by your results?
