Grandmillennial STYLE

How to achieve the latest trend in home decor

Kelly Hines // Tulsa World Magazine

What’s old is still old, but it could be stylish again.

The latest generation of homeowners is bucking the blasé in favor of a new twist on traditional pieces previously deemed outdated. The result is grandmillennial style, an unexpected marriage of patterns and texture galore.

Vibrant wallpaper, needlepoint pillows, fl oral everything — what was once in your grandmother’s living room is back en vogue as part of this eclectic design trend.

We hit up resale stores in the Tulsa area to fi nd ways to incorporate this style in your own home.

A felted suede camel chair and ottoman with brown piping ($599) and a needlepoint pillow ($39.50) create a nostalgic but cozy corner without trying too hard. TOP OF PAGE: A fl oral toile sofa ($1,231), a pair of regency chairs ($1,400) and wool rug ($4,830) use a central color scheme to stay coordinated.

Inherited china can be a conversation piece when displayed properly. This Mikasa floral set ($29.25) at Round the House, 4941 S. Peoria Ave., is showcased in an old lighted curio secretary cabinet ($525).

ABOVE: Let there be light: Old-fashioned table lamps add sophistication in the form of dark wood, crystals and brass. These lamps (prices vary) are from Red’s Mercantile, 102 S. First St. in Jenks.

LEFT: Out of the blue: A clever way to introduce more color is by reviving a weary piece, like this recovered channel back chair ($325) with a paisley throw pillow ($32) at Round the House.
