I took a "what is your homestyle test" or something like that from HomeGoods recently and these were my results:
"Bohemian Classic
You have a refined sensibility and bring a sense of
history and tradition into your decor. You appreciate how symmetrical
arrangements and beautiful, well-crafted pieces create a solid
foundation to a room. But you like to shake up this restraint with
objects and accessories that express your personality and your love of
other cultures.
You value order. You feel happiest if your home is well
organized. You understand that when your house is in order, your mind
feels clearer.
Rather than a lot of meaningless objects or
overly-designed items, you are happier with a few well-placed things.
Your home is your respite from a busy life. Try to avoid letting things
into your home that you don't really love."
First
of all, I've ALWAYS wanted to be called "Bohemian." I don't think
anyone in my real life would EVER call me that, but if this little quiz
wants to, I'm not going to argue. ;)
The "You value order. You feel
happiest if your home is well organized." made me laugh out loud. Because....... have
you seen my refrigerator lately?
That's right. I have a cleaning schedule.
No I'm not ocd about a clean
house, ok maybe a little, but I wasn't always like this, I promise! Ask my mom! Ask my roommates in college! But it's gotten worse as I've gotten older.
Has anyone else had this happen?
So a chore chart helps me only
do one thing of night instead of turning into a mad woman tornadoing through the
house at 10pm because WHAT IF SOMEONE COMES OVER IN THE MORNING AND THE
HOUSE ISN'T PERFECT?!
It helps me let go of things. Well, all except one a night. And for right now, that works.
Speaking of, it's wednesday and I have to fold the laundry now. ;)
Take the homegoods quiz for yourself here: What's Your Style?
I'm going to use this schedule!!!
