Cabin Style

I remember when I first read about Carrie & Danielle in the Domino (oh, how we will miss you) May 2007 issue. We were in the middle of our huge "stuff" liquidation, and getting ready to move into the Cabin. I was obsessed with having a style statement consultation with C&D, primarily because it supported one of my underlying truths about downsizing: just because you don't have stuff, it doesn't mean you don't have style. Because I have not yet had my professional session with the "style shrinks", I am addicted to online style quizzes. If you've checked in with Jessica Jones recently, you too may have followed her link to Sproost's.


For this iteration of the style quiz, you look at a series of finished rooms and indicate where your feelings lie on a scale of "Love It" to "Hate It". Based on your responses, Sproost will diagnose your personal two-word style statement, much like those of C&D. I took the quiz twice and the results are confirmed. (drumroll please) Cabin style is. . . .

50% Vintage Modern

33% Rustic Revival

17% Arts & Crafts


These were my top 3 "Love It" rooms from the quiz:





"Vintage" "Modern". My only concern is that the predominate theme of my personal style is. . . oxymoronical. What does this say about me? That's a rhetorical question, Summer.

Love the quiz E, and from my results is looks like I can't comment on your oxymoron status. 75% Vintage Modern, 13% Hollywood Couture (maybe LA is rubbing off on me), 12% Contemporary.

BTW just read the description for Hollywood Couture, kid you not it starts with the phrase "Welcome to Hollywood! What's your dream?"

E, I also enjoyed the quiz and learned a little about myself. 50% Cottage Chic, 25% Vintage Modern and 25% Rustic Revival. No Hollywood and no Arts and Crafts---not a big surprise I guess. :)

Personally, I always thought my style was 75% Hand-me-downs and 25%Weird Free Stuff.
