WHAT IS GRANDMILLENNIAL DECOR?

Monday, September 27, 2021

While searching around the web the other day I came across the term grandmillennial style.

I have to admit it was a term I was not familiar with, but of course, as someone who loves home decor I had to research it.

The Origins Of The Grandmillennial Style

It's hard to pinpoint the origins of the style, but it is believed that it stefelt as children at their grandparents' homes. 

Grandmillennials range in age from the mid 20s to the late 30s, but I love this style and so I think it is for everyone who loves a cosy nostalgic feel. 

Where did this style come from? I personally think that staying at home during the pandemic has created a turn from minimalism to cosy interiors, and from millennials falling back in love with the comfort they found as children.


What Is Grandmillennial Style

No longer are Laura Ashley prints, ruffles, and embroidery considered stuffy.

Everything blue and white is big again. 

Of course, for those of us who have always loved blue and white, it never went out of style.

Whether in the bedroom, living room, or foyer where a skirted table is topped with ginger jars and antique books, blue and white seems a dominant feature in this style.

Grandmillennial style takes design tips from stuffy grandparents' rooms into a cleaner more updated look but for those of us who have always loved traditional and cottage styles, it seems very familiar.

  4. It's a new term to me, too! It totally makes sense, though, how it came to be.

  6. Grandmillennial, cottagecore, everything old is new again and what goes around comes around. Or something like that, right? Either way I'm happy...I'm right back in style again.
