That said, I am a grandma, and the last thing I want is for my home to look like something "granny" would have (too many bits and bobs, clutter, etc.). I agree, one has to be cautious with too much stuff. I love Persian rugs, especially when they're worn and look like a family heirloom. Thanks for this friendly reminder of keeping things fresh and current.<br />(loved the story about your son, boys are so much fun!)<br />xo,<br />KarenKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08064699521293763744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134826733437250835.post-69770767620370525612017-02-12T21:31:18.747+02:002017-02-12T21:31:18.747+02:00I love this - I love Persians still, though I pref...I love this - I love Persians still, though I prefer them faded and threadbare to overly plush. I think it might be because I grew up WITHOUT them. My mother had a very spare aesthetic, even declaring a plain bound wool carpet she tried in our living room over the hardwoods (sometime in the 70's) as being too fussy and cluttered. Totally agree on keeping everything else simple.Agreeable Pursuitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00920369527416157720noreply@blogger.com
