I've had an interesting conversation with several friends this week.. so now I'd like to get some other feedback. For those of you who are married or living with a SO.... Who makes the decisions concerning the decorating "style" of the house? Dose the man of the house give his direction and the woman works around his parimeters? Or is your house "whatever makes mama happy, makes us all happy"?
I've talked to several men who swear they would never live in a "girly" house and refuse to let thier wives put up anything lacy or floral. I've talked with my dad and his opinion was he didn't care and whatever made mom happy.. he said floral bedding didn't bother him because the lights were out when he was in it anyway. And then I saw pictures of a friend house and EVERYTHING was pink and lacy (lace curtians, lace table cloth), even had victorian dolls all across the mantle and I thought... wow, how would her husband feel in that house?
What are things like at your house?
