[quote=Anonymous]I have been wondering about family photos in the main level. My older woman relatives always said this was tacky. But I have done it - school portraits on shelves in my living room (which would be their "parlor"?) I have a smaller house in the city, the main level that people see has open living/dining/kitchen. I would like to expand my photos to the dining area walls, but am held back by "tacky" as defined by people now in their 80s or dead. My mother had a larger, beautiful painting of my sister done when she was 18, and hung it in the, uh "sitting room," and my older aunt let me know that was dreadful. Same aunt was scandalized when my pregnant sister wore a black dress (only good dress that fit) to my other sister's wedding. Old school etiquette rules. I mean I guess it's just bad etiquette if you don't live in a house in which you can't follow rules meant for people who had like 18 rooms. Maybe photos go in the study or the library?? :lol: [/quote]
