Boomer,

You forgot to mention the macrame plant hangers. I had one for years, and finally got rid of it about 10 years ago. Now I am starting to see patterns for them showing up in my crochet magazines. It has to do with all this retro decorating that is coming back in style. We decorate strickly for comfort. My husband is 6'4", which severely limits our choices in furnishings because he dwarfs most typical pieces. (or I'm afraid he will break them in less than 6 months) So I guess you could say that my home is furnished in eclectic giant. Nonie, your decorating style should be whatever makes your house feel like home to you. Your pictures look like your furnishings are very pretty, and it looks comfortable and homey. Don't change a thing if this makes you feel relaxed and recharged. I don't think we need to change our home decor every time we change our hairstyle. Let the length of our skirt hems be dictated by the changing wave of fashion, but leave me my comfort in my home.
