All the blue and white porcelain in every one of these is the super cheap low-quality stuff.

It looks like somebody opened their Christmas presents and left them on the coffee table. I couldn't handle that amount of clutter.
I totally get it, to you it is clutter and that is fine. For people who like this style, however, they are meaningful things. There is nothing random, cheap or lazy in lee ann thornton's work, it is high end. She lives in a wealthy area outside new york, refers to it as "country" and so yes country style at all levels involves having more things typically but to many, when done right, it is layered and cozy and homey. To another it is clutter.
Oh, well then it MUST be good.

You say blue and white china as if that's a normal thing to litter everywhere. There is a pointless bowl sitting on the table with nothing in it, some type of cake tray with a lid on it (is she storing cake in the living room?), some kind of bell-shaped thing in case the call to prayer needs to be made and you can't leave the living room to retrieve your bell, and let's not miss the TEN GALLON PITCHER. Is grandma's ashes in that? Grandma must have died from decorating this room.

lol, there's also a tray with a candle on it (you move your candles from room to room after already having another candle on the table?), some toothpicks (??) on the tray, and ANOTHER hidden useless metal bowl behind the ten gallon pitcher. There is also a five foot tall glass cylinder (is this one of the non-gun self-defense options people were talking about keeping handy in case of break-ins?). All of this is ON ONE COFFEE TABLE lmao

It's so weird - to me this just looks like 80s suburban style. I don't see anything special about it at all. It's like an LL Bean catalogue without the dog. (And I like LL Bean - don't get me wrong!)

The coffee table styling is not great. The console table is good.

Agree. And the buy 3-get one free large blue and white porcelain vases wedged under the matchy-matchy console tables is a bit much.

Omg it looks exactly like that! All that’s missing is a trash bag full of wrapping paper behind the couch.

I’m departing from the article which I think is more about young people DIYing but for a sort of updated traditional vibe but very high end I love Summer Thornton and Katie Ridder.
