Happy Sunday, friends! If you’re wondering whether, indeed, size does matter, The Nester blog has the answer. They unveil what they call “The Big Mistake,” which involves decorating with too much stuff. Specifically, being afraid to commit to one large item, which can lead to filling our space with multiple small things, resulting in an overly busy look. I know I’m sometimes guilty of this. I like lots of small stuff! They call this tendency “the most impactful thing people overlook when it comes to decorating,” so I suppose I will pay attention. Learn more on this episode of their podcast , which promises three reasons why scale is so important when decorating.
I found a fun Instagram follow the other day. Historical Homes of America has an array of homes like the Hench House , built in 1887 in York, Pennsylvania, and the Gamwell House, from about the same era but sporting a very different look.
