[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]-If you collect things that you love over time and only buy things that “spark joy” (as they say), you’ll have a nicer and more authentic home then if you go into pottery barn (or any store) and buy an entire room.

-Don’t buy matched sets of bedroom furniture or living room furniture.

[b]-Make sure to incorporate vintage or antique or family heirloom pieces into your home[/b].  It should ideally be a mix of old and new.

-Don’t be ashamed to flip through decor magazines and try to copy a room that you love.[/quote]

I disagree with this. I hate old stuff, and hate my parents' taste. I think a house can absolutely be tastefully decorated without those things. [/quote]

Are you thinking about vintage or found items broadly though?  What about framing an antique map or print in the frame of your choice?  Or buying an out-of-print hardcover book for your shelf display or coffee table, such as a first edition book of a favorite classic novel?  You really have to have everything brand new?[/quote]
