Bohemian Classic

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. ;)
