I like a homely/cosy lived in comfy atmosphere....tidy to a point but not obsessively so...I like to put my own style into my home.
My hell would be beige/Magnolia. modern minimalist nothingness.

I go for the lived - in "homely" look bordering on "Hoarders".

Very few people see it so I don't really care, got better things to do and more important stuff to worry about

My motto is, "if you don't like it, bogg off somewhere else!"


Tess, that could well be my house you've described.
We'd get on famously.

Sparkling clean, no mess anywhere, we have always been like that, even as a kid, I used to make my bed before Mum did.

I even make sure the Cat's bed is clean and tidy.

Man cave is a temple to music wildlife and photography, books everywhere.

During the summer i take every chance to get out so home is not a priority.

Come November i will start to put things in order slowly over time ready for the years end splurge.

Re: What is your home like.

Our hovel is our pride and joy, we do replace the straw and sawdust on the floor sometimes if we are expecting visitors, and out of respect for the environment we always wipe our feet on the way out.....

Re: What is your home like.

Mostly clean and tidy...except for the kitchen sometimes. The kitchen is where it all happens, it's quite big (used to be separate kitchen and dining room but has been knocked into one room now) and I tend to live in it during the day (as does me dawg).

Just lately I've been conscious that I allow it to get in a state during the day then have a massive job cleaning it up in the evening, so I've been doing more clearing as I go. Seems to be working.

The yardstick I use now is...would I be embarrassed if I got unexpected visitors? And no, I wouldn't be.

Re: What is your home like.

My home is also my hobby. I love finding old things and making them like new again...have to admit my house sparkles...that's just me I like nice things but it's a home and I'm not precious about it, when grandkids are here furniture is upended and dens are made...people feel happy to kick off their shoes and put their feet up

My house is clean and tidy downstairs as I don't like it messy and I have to have everything symmetrical. My husband keeps trying to move stuff around and puts things not symmetrical and it drives me mad so I always put them back to how they were.

I'm very untidy in my bedroom and my wardrobes, cupboards and drawers are a disorganised mess. I do wish I was more organised sometimes but I don't worry about it.

While I like a clean home I'm not a clean freak and can live with a bit of dust.


What about you?
I would say usually say,show home type,..but I have just come out of hospital,so it's anything but!.

Very tidy apart from the room Mrs mart uses for crafting. Maybe a bit dusty here and there.
