  • This one is true!  It's become very popular this year to bring art all throughout the home. Companies like Displate offer art that is sturdy enough to hold up in the kitchen, while others are looking at digital frames like the ones from Samsung.

  • This  one is also true.  We're loving having bathtubs be the center of the bathroom again. Although the concept of self-care is a bit contentious as to what defines it, there are many different reasons to love a good soak. From the physical to the mental to the emotional, there are dozens of benefits to a soak in the tub, and having you bathroom's central focus on it just makes sense.

  • This one is true. We talked earlier this year about bringing in larger patterns for wallpaper into the home, gardens seem to be what's really getting the focus this year. We can't say how long this trend will last, but with peel and stick wallpaper, we don't think there's any harm in finding the perfect wallpaper for you.

  • Here we've got out first false. While this is a fantastic design option in your blogger's opinion, current design trends aren't currently focusing on this one. The towering ceilings are lovely to look at, it's not an easy look to get if you're not building your own home or purchasing an older property.

  • This one is also false, and is actually a trend from the 1920s instead. Check out the precise lines and the shine of glass, it's a very Art Deco style. At the moment the straight lines aren't so much a thing as are curves and more natural shapes.

  • This one is very true and we love it! As we've mentioned previously, we're all over the idea of being comfy in your home, that your home should be your castle and your getaway. This trend is taking that to the next level and bringing back four poster beds and we are loving it. 

A couch or daybed (it's hard to tell) is covered in many pillows of various sizes and textures, some soft, some fluffy, some knubby, and one bright green one. More importantly there are many different blankets. Some are fleece, some are minky and man

  • Another true one, and again, very much an outcome from the pandemic. Adding in comfort to every room, when you don't know what a given day will bring you, is a fantastic idea. Whether that's linens and cottons or velvets and weighted blankets, we love that people are focusing on making their home safe, clean and comfortable 

  • This one is true, and admittedly, we can see why. By having your room one color and then bringing in different contrasting colors, it allows you to have more play and expression in different rooms.

  • Sadly, this one is false. Although Art Deco has become popular again, at the moment the trends are heading more towards those of Art Nouveau, rounded natural shapes and natural colors.

  • Thankfully, in your Blogger's opinion at least, this one is currently false. While flounces are currently rather popular as an accent when it comes to clothes right now, we aren't seeing them transition back into decor just yet.  

A kitchen's drawers and cabinets are all painted a gorgeous emerald green with only the counters and the ceiling painted white.

  • If you paid attention to an earlier post this year, you'd be wise and know this one is true! Not only are people getting rid of their upper cabinets, but they're also painting their cabinets all sorts of vibrant and stunning colors.

  • Although Egyptian design is always very interesting, at the moment it's not a top trend. Which is either a  very good thing, or very bad, depending on your love of gold and blues.

  • This one is true! As much as we're all loving on the curves in nature, we're applying it to our sofas as well. We don't see this one hanging on for long though, as it is rather difficult to plan around a curved piece of furniture, as people in the 70s knew all too well.

  • As interesting as plasterwork is, we're rounding out our list with a false!  Plaster work has the possibility to add so much character to a room, but for the time being it's not a trend. Probably because of the price that goes into it.
