my style

*I am going to post about the grandparents' birthday parties and family reunions as soon as I get the CD with photos from Ann & then more when I get photos from everybody else. I did not take my camera out once so I am relying on others (again) for my posting about what we have been up to.

I took a quiz on HGTV's website during nap time and here are my results. What is your style?
I really want to know. Em, I know you get bored at work and it really didn't take that long- it has taken me longer to post (and fix post) than it did to actually take the quiz.

What's Your Design Style?

Ethnic Eclectic

Your style is a mix of bohemian chic and contemporary ethnic flair. Whether you travel extensively or shop locally, chances are good that your home is filled with a collection of interesting accessories. By contrast, a neutral color scheme and furniture with simple lines is the best backdrop to accentuate your most colorful pieces. To achieve this mix-and-match design style, look to nature. "The concern with the environment is playing a big role in interior design trends – from colors you find in nature, to high-end natural fibers in wall coverings, to exotic woods and stone being used throughout the home," says Denise Turner, an interior designer in Alta Loma, California. It's all about simple lines and natural materials as a backdrop for your collectables and artwork.

Design Tips for Ethnic Eclectic

Contemporary and chic accessories go with any style. Dress up family-friendly comfort in the dining room with a sophisticated Murano glass light fixture that's out of the reach of little hands. Or, make the master bedroom your grown-up retreat with soothing colors from the garden and a wooden platform bed with a trendy upholstered headboard.

My style is Rustic Comfort. The description seemed pretty close to my preferences.

I have stuff going on today at work, plus I'm a Bad, Bad Mother, but I'll take it as soon as I can.
