[QUOTE= My design ethos for my place is that a cabin is where all of the family members dump their unwanted, out of style items. They may still love those items, but they're just not that cool anymore. Somehow, these fond, quirky items come together and find a loving home

This!! This has been my "design ethos" for our cabin! Our cabin was originally built in the early 40's and still has some of the original charm. When I buy/replace things at the cabin I look for that old time feel, and wonder if things are appropriately shabby or sometimes tacky!!
