- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- I describe and incorporate the top 15 characteristics and elements of the hottest new design style-Grand Millennial/Cottagecore Design-as I redecorate my sitting room. I will include several DIY home decor projects along the way. These include creating botanical book covers, creating art from dried flowers, painting and refurbishing a thrifted cabinet, removing the skirt off thrifted chairs and cleaning the chairs with an upholstery cleaner, sewing curtains from precut Waverly fabric, reupholstering a seat cover, and painting an iron table. I will present a tour of the room at the end of the video. If you are tired of your current decor and are ready for a change, this is the video for you!

I hope you enjoy today’s video. If you do, I would love to do more videos like this where I incorporate DIY projects into a room redo. Please, let me know if you would like more videos like this or if you prefer videos that focus solely on the DIY projects. I am happy to do either! 🥰
Yes would love to see more!
Would love to see a home tour too! Your taste is fabulous and your talent serms to know no bounds!
I would love both types of videos from you!!! 💖💖👏👏👍👍
I love this so much please do more videos your home looks amazing 📚🕰⏰🌿🍃🕊🦋🌸💕
Loved video and here in U.K. I’m really hoping this catches on my house stuffed with antique bamboo furniture plants and old stuff I’m like you happy to be on trend😀
I am 73 and have loved this style for 60 years, now it has a name. More of these videos please.
You are amazing, your husband must be the kindest man we know. Love the new style. The butterflies were beyond word you are so patience. Don’t quit doing what you do it’s so refreshing.
Thank you so much! My hubby is a great guy! He lets me do whatever I want with the house (even though he is a minimalist)!!!
I absolutely love this style of decor. I am 75 and I have been trying to make my home like this for over 50 years and it always seemed "out of style". Even though I am old I am still re decorating and diy ing things for my home. I got a few ideas from your video. I could listen to you talk all day it is so relaxing. I think I would love to have you as a friend to collaberate with. Love it. Thank you. Pam
Her voice is so relaxing I actually fell asleep watching it and dropped my phone. 🫤
Love this style. I also like the way you speak slowly and clearly and don't speed up your videos. I always look forward to your new videos. You have such great ideas!
This is who I am.So glad to know there's a name for it .I always said I like my old things better than new stuff.Thanks .I will be watching you.
Hello, Judie, my granny chic friend! I am so glad you’ll be watching my channel!😊
FINALLY! I am so tired of all the signs, signs, everywhere are signs. Haha. This is great. I am so into birds, all of the sudden. I love what you did here. It is beautiful. My mom would have loved it. I am going to try to do some of these.
Haha! I get what you mean. I have two signs left in my house and I couldn’t really get rid of them as one is a cross stitch and a huge sign with a verse that are too nice to donate.
Yes! Everything you see is cold colors and boring white with signs
I totally agree with you. A sign here or there is okay but really, all over the house is a bit much and I am a color person. I dislike mundane boring colors.
You can call this “Granny chic” if you want, but the style you have described is just plain traditional & beautiful decorating, no matter what century. This my style and I love it.
This has always been my style using what I like regardless of current trends. I’ve never been a pillow gal and don’t use many of them to decorate. I have kept some items from when I was first married which is about 40 years ago. I put them back for a while and then bring out again, it makes them feel new but brings back memories too.
So happy this decorating style is en vogue now! I've always loved the English interiors of the 1930s & '40s. The doilies, wallpaper & collections of plates, etc. Your sitting room refresh looks fabulous. The drapery is lovely & so well done. And that cabinet...outstanding. Can't wait for your next episode. Thank you for inspiring, Sherry! 🌿😊
Thank you, Bobbie! Yes, I love the English interiors of the 1930’s, too (thus the name Canterbury Cottage)! I do think that Grand Millennial is just a reincarnation of that style. Love that it is popular again! 🥰
@@CanterburyCottage Yes! BTW, I love your channel 's name. See you next week.😊
I’ve been redoing my dining and living room and I have a mix of styles. I want my rooms to be surrounded by birds, old wood, brass, color glass, old books, plants, dried flowers, my Grandma’s paintings, old family pictures, wicker baskets, pottery and bright color rugs. I think your home is beautiful and looks warm and welcoming just how I want my home to be when I finish it. Thank you for well done video!❤️
You are so welcome, Teresa! It sounds like Granny Chic style to me! 🥰
I never bought into the all white and black everything either. Farmhouse, primitive and cottage all seemed the same to me but I’m from the country.
I am binge watching your decorating ideas for the past 2 years. I have not heard of Grand Millennial style until I saw your video and I absolutely love it. I am 68 years old and so much of this style is familiar and feels like home. Thanks for doing this.
Oh thank you Lord! I finally think I can achieve a style in my home that is "trending" and I truly love and enjoy myself. Thank you too for for all your helpful advise, hints and step by step tutorials I just love your home and your sweet nature miss Sherry you are one chic granny yourself😊❤😘
I have been trying to make my homes into my great grandmas style. I thought I was just a granny at heart... now I'm finally in style. I have more bird and butterfly motifs than anything else. As an artist, I not only paint florals and landscapes, but I have friends who are artists and have decorated with their artwork too. A great source of original artwork and lovely pieces too, is your local art association.
Yay! I have always been this style! So tired of seeing everything white, white, white all over RUclips
Agree! And Beige..like a forlorn motel room..no warmth!
Brown, tan, white, and black, I am so tired of that, and all the signs.
@@MissMolly3377 especially the Signs...uughh so over it.
I am so glad I am not the only one who is tired of Farmhouse and is ready for a cozier and more colorful interior! 😀
AND tired of all the Dollarstore Shenanigans diy as well..so cheap! and plastic! I really like this new style...looks vintage, collected, warm, and cozy!
Taking the skirt off those chairs changed them completely and made them more modern, I love them
How much fun. Enjoy this new life. The memories you are creating for your family are amazing and your children will grow old to remember all you gave them. Love to all of you, Lynn
Thank you, Lynn! That is so very sweet of you to say! 🥰 I am enjoying my life right now. Love to you and your family, too!
Enjoyed the video very much. But then, being with you is always enjoyable.
Now I know what my style is called!
This is so me! More grand-millennial content, please!
Although I like everything, I love the cabinet upcycle, weather station and the curtains.
Until today, I was convinced that I was not a fan of this style of decor. But after watching the way you effortlessly and beautifully incorporated this style into your existing farmhouse-ish style, I have a completely fresh, new perspective and realize there is much to this style that I've been enjoying for years. I suppose, like anything, it's all about embracing what you like and getting rid of what you don't in order to make it work for you! Your videos never disappoint, so thank you so much for sharing your creativity and knowledge! ❤️
Oh my gosh, finally, my style....green and blue, and old things, and lots of plants...I am loving it!
Yay! That’s how I feel! So tired of all white and gray everything!
I didn't know that I was Granny chic all this time. 😂I was never a neutral person.
Lol, me too!
I have a little boho thrown in for good measure hahaha
Your trendy without even trying🤗😂👍
Boomer Chic! Always.
Grand Millennial! I had no idea that my style had a name! Thank you!
This is my style for sure. I am a granny and have been decorating like this for a long time. Beautifully done!
This has been my style for years way before I became a “grand”ma! Love your videos!!!
Me too!
So good to see color and comfort again. Heirlooms and cozy layers. The millennials are adults now!
I know right?! I think I like these millennials! 😜
Since I inherited much of my furniture I was already granny chic. And will remain so even when it’s out of style. Love your channel!
I would have never thought of taken off the skirt on the chairs. I love it! What a small but very impactful change.
I am so glad you liked it, Lisa! I thought I might have to add some piping or fringe, but the fabric looked fine underneath! 😊
Love your room, so cozy and warm💕 Hated all white rooms with nothing in them, talk about cold. I'm a lover of books, wood, collections, etc. They just make a home so warm. Great video💓
Wow your sitting room looks great! If you need any rooms to re-do for future videos, my entire house is available 🤣
I would love to do that sometime! 🥰
While I admire stark freshness, it isn't me, never was...I like things, colors and an environment that sparks my imagination. I always considered my taste as eclectic. Thanks for the very imformative video. 😊
Eclectic! Great word as well!
I absolutely love this video!!! I grew up with grandparents who had stately homes, filled with lovely things, and I have been fortunate to inherit many of them. I feel most comfortable with this type of decor, and am very happy that it's making a comeback!
Same here. I love my old inherited stuff.
The overall look is lovely, comfy, and inviting. Love how the bookcase turned out.
Thank you for your lovely and great videos ..Greetings from Greece .x
Wow-Greece! I am so glad you enjoy my videos.😊 Do they have thrift stores in Greece?
Sherry, as usual, beautiful projects. . I grew up next door to my grand parents' farm, and inherited many beautiful items of furniture and other decor from the years 1930-1954. I will always treasure them and just love how you brought back fond memories of my childhood. Thank you for your inspiration. Blessings XO

Well there's finally a name for my hodge podge style.😆 Love how the cabinet tuned out!
Love the granny chic, grand millennial style. I'm so tired of farmhouse, and this is so much cozier. I love how you explain everything so clearly. Thank you.
I agree . Farmhouse and the neutrals . I like color n cozy
I live in Gloucestershire in England in a 160 year old cottage and this is how I have styled my cottage. I love this style and find all my items from car boot sales etc. Many people discard such beautiful old items but I adore them and bring them home. I love your style.
For a very long time my goal was to be the “cool grandma with a lot of style!” And now I finally am 😅❤
I bet you always were!😀
So so so love this! I needed this video to recognize what I adore. I have been decorating in a combo of industrial and farmhouse...but keep recognizing the need for florals and coziness. I don’t care for all the ‘wording’ that comes with farmhouse, and industrial is just too harsh. Perfect!!! Thank you! You are my new best decorating friend!
I couldn’t agree more!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 THIS style is more MY style of decorating my home. I don’t have as many collections but I love color, throws, assorted pillows on comfy couches. This style is like the house is saying, “Welcome to Our Home” ❤️❤️❤️
Amen!! Finally, I'm vindicated!! I've been wanting to see COLOR back in style!! Tasteful of course but Granny Chic is my kinds of style!!!
I feel the same way...everyone is whitewashing everything, including bone china and brass and marble and pewter and they call it shabby chic when the original piece is destroyed.
💯✔️
I absolutely love the bookcase. I'm already granny chic. Who knew!😄😄😆
Of course, you have always been granny chic! 😀 I am so glad you like the bookcase. I forgot to mention that it is the top off of a china cabinet.
@@CanterburyCottage I figured out that it was the top of a China cabinet.... you don't know how many times I've seen just that part and "walked on by" like Dianne Warwick would say.
Yay to Grand Millennial! I totally identify with this style. Also, Lisa Holt's channel had a video on RegencyCore which is similar to Grand Millennial but uses the elements from the Regency period as enjoyed in the Bridgerton show on Netflix. Between the two, it's such a refreshing departure from white, gray, and the F word (farmhouse to be exact.)
I am so happy to hear that this style finally has a name!!!! Your video was filled with wonderful ideas and information. And guess what.....I HAVE butterfly specimens in a black frame!!!! It's going back up TODAY!!!! Thanks so much for your videos!
Hello! I'm so happy for this style's comeback. It fits into my eclectic design style and makes life more interesting and easy, once it's not overly busy. Happy! Thank you!
I'm in love with this Grand Millennial style! You are an artist! Thanks for sharing your creativity and talent! 🌞Fl
The Late Victorian period is my favorite way to decorate. So glad that many of the beautiful touches are back.
Love the Hutch to bookcase transformation! I'm not granny chic but I love your ideas in this video!
Love this look. My home decor has evolved over the years the way I liked it with no regard to trends. Now, I am surrounded by my favorite things, refreshing it often so it never looks drab or granny.! Looking forward to your next video!
I ❤ finding furniture and painting/ deciupaging it. It's great to have something unique nobody else has. ❤
Grand millennial or granny chic, although beautiful, it just isn’t for everyone. When the woods and whites world came on the scene I didn’t realize how much I needed it. It’s very calming for my mind. I’m so happy you found a style that’s just for you! That’s what we all should be looking for and loving no matter what others may think. It’s our home and we should style it in the way that feels most comfortable to us. Great job on all your projects!
Not my style, but this and Victorian is my best friends style. I’m not a minimalist, but this is too much “stuff” for me to live with. I can however appreciate it-looks good!
I, as a fellow subscriber, appreciate your comment & how nicely stated it is. It’s refreshing to see kindly worded comments whether in support of or not supportive of this “new” style of decor. Personally I am quite taken by this style. It’s warm & inviting, makes it (the home) feel like it’s “hugging” one imo ☺️🙋🏻♀️.
I’m still loving my simple modern farmhouse style but I do really love how you used all the different florals. That cabinet turned out great! You did a great job.
I absolutely hate when i hear people talk about whats "in" or " out". First of all, do what YOU love. Second of all, its perfectly fine and very doable to have a bit of both. Imo, a "farmhouse" style was never totally neutral. It can definitely have plenty of florals and things. I have always used basic neutrals, and naturals, but throw in color as well, with "removable" items such as wall decor and pillows. It doesnt have to be either or..and it doesn't have to be "in" or "out".
@@crystalparker2542 here here!!
I love the old bird, butterfly insect, botanical prints.
Always been my hearts style, I was raised by my grandmother and she had great style, personally and decorativelyI! Always a southern genteel warmth, she was raised in Maryland and lived in Florida! Blessed and safe days!
You are my favorite! So talented. I love your detailed instructions!
I’m not a Granny but this is definitely my style.
Yes, we have the same style which I would say also shares a bit of overlap with boho, cottage core, and mid-century. That's why I love your channel so much. Your home is lovely and lovingly decorated! You always share so many wonderful diys. The upcycled glass-front cabinet turned out beautifully with the new, unpainted feet and shelves. I enjoyed seeing more of your repurposed outdoor lantern collection as you filmed the room. Going to watch this one again - right now!
I am thrilled to see that so many things I love are back!!! I have lots packed away from when I moved. Also I’m thrilled that my daughter in law loves the same style as well. I gave her some great pieces of furniture, clocks etc that I have no room for. So excited. Thank you 💗
I'm so glad to see this style come back. It's my great grandmother's house...great memories. Love your videos.
I bought a dark rattan chair last year on Offer Up because it went well with my Cottage-themed home. It's refreshing to see this Grand Millennial style popular once again!
I love grandmillenial style. I’m so glad that it is now a “thing”, because I’ve been decorating this way for 35 years now since I bought my own home at age 22. I could never get into the grey or farmhouse or minimalist style. I have some lovely antiques passed down from generations. I love every single element of this “style”, and it is true to who I am. I like videos on incorporating the DIY’s into decor, as I wouldn’t often be able to picture what to do with them once complete. Thanks you!!
I wasn't sure what style I liked but you've just hit the nail on the head! Thank you so much!
Me too! Isn't it gorgeous
As a millennial, I approve. 😄 A lot of these elements are part of my personal style as well.
You did a beautiful job with this room, I enjoyed watching it!
Thank you so much, my millennial viewer! 🥰
So lovely Sherry!! I’ve never wavered with the current trend, just made some additions or adjustments in my decor. BUT - now I will go room by room, and gather up my collections to display them better, and spruce up my Granny Chic Millennial style - that I did not know I was, lol! You’re the best Sherry! Can’t wait til next Tuesday!!! 😘
I loved the cabinet makeover and the little side table makeover!!! I would have to say our last home was granny chic and we loved it in that home. I am so OVER farmhouse style. It’s wonderful to see a home decor video on something other than farmhouse. Thank you!
Our current home decor is what we call “vintage lake”. We have curated items and collections over the years and we just love how our home feels.
Glad to know my style is back in fashion. Thank you for all the ideas.
This is how I’ve decorated for years....glad I’m in style now. :) I just bought one of those extension cords that fit over your whole outlet to go behind a chest of drawers....they’re so convenient!
You make everything look so easy! It’s beautiful
This is exactly the look I have been trying to create! Its refreshing to see you are doing it here! I am no way a minimalist, never have been but I hate clutter! Oh I am so glad to see what you have done! I have a tiny cottage style house that can easily look cluttered so I have to be careful how I present things! Thank you so much Sherry!
I love the Granny Chic Style!!! I don’t feel like my Grandbabies would ever be worried to touch something or even admire something I have had for decades! I just revamped my basement apartment so that my Son, Wife and my Granddaughter and Grandson would have a place to stay while visiting for Christmas from overseas. My Grandkids are 7 & almost 5 and were excited to see their new bedroom and be able to play with whatever I had used in my decor. I even got them interested in my rock collection!!!! Their Mummy is afraid of butterflies and birds so I limited that element. Would be the same as my dislike of spiders so I totally understand that feeling! I am also done with the white everything thing. I love my travel mementos and collections. Thanks 🙏 for sharing and allowing license to be the Grannies we are blessed to be!!!!
LOVE, LOVE, 💘 your style! I must have always been a "Grand Millennial" decorator! I'm happy to hear it's now in style as I've held back on adding all the elements I would like to add. Look out thrift stores, here I come! Love your channel!! Looking forward to more videos! And I also appreciate the way in which you describe and give instructions. I predict a new You Tube decorating star in the making! 😎
I am a country prim style gal but there are elements in this grand millenial style that I can incorporate into my look. Thank you!
Oh, I love primitive style, too, but I have never had the right house for it. Thanks fo much for watching!😊
I’m laughing because I’m “in style”! I have been using this style most of my life and am so happy to hear items of quality are being utilized again.
I loved this . I too love the things Grandma had . I use an old crockpot to remove paint & crud from too. No chemicals ! Just hit water .
I really like all these elements. It truly gives character and warmth to a room..
I just recently learned of this style and I guess now my house is finally in style! I also like maximalist decor here and there.
I have always been granny chic! Lol love my colors and beautiful things all around me with lots of plants.🥰
I have been touting "Granny Chic" my whole adult life. I even called it Granny Chic. I especially love that you can use many items you inherited from family and friends. I have built collections from things I got from a favorite aunt. You just showed us just what my house looks like. Imagine being able to thrift things that have color! No more cold black and white. I enjoy your DIY projects and this room redo was perfection! Bring us both!
That is so funny that you used the term, “Granny Chic”! I wish we could post pictures on RUclips because I would love to see some of your aunt’s treasures! Thanks so much for the feedback, Kerry!
Your space is so relaxing and comfortable looking. Well done for sure..
Is there anything you can’t do? Amazing!
Yes, I don’t cook much and I don’t can. In a previous video, I put flowers in antique canning funnels that I called “bottomless cups”! 😜
Lovely, cozy room. I have always been Granny chic. I have lots of collections, books, antiques. I really don't care what is in style or not. When I see a young person decorate their entire house in one trendy style I know they'll be sorry when it's all in a garage sale in 8 or 10 years. Also that was a good choice to switch out the chairs, it looks better.
I love moody vintage art ,especially when I find it on my runs to the thrift stores,it’s such a thrill
My style for sure! And yes I’m finally in style, even though everyone always said what style is this I love it❤️❤️❤️
I didn’t realize until now that I’ve always been granny chic! 😁 You have a wonderful way to make it all come together!
Glad to hear this style has a name. I think it’s always been my style and now it’s just nice to be ‘in’!
I have always loved the traditional, now grand Millennial style. You did a wonderful job on refurbishing your green cabinet. I have been changing out my jute bows for satin bows! I am glad to see more important looking items and imported items sneaking back into our favorite stores. I really enjoy looking at what people have collected over the years. I hope the younger generation learns that hoarding and collecting are two different things. Looking forward to more from you, Sherry! Have a great day.
Love what you did and the style of this video, Sherry. More proof that if you keep something long enough it'll come back into style. It'll just get a new name. lol
I've always loved a lot of things from this style too! So eclectic!
I love your style! I too am tired of the minimalist look. I did my living room in blue chinoiserie. Now i am refreshing my family room decor
My home is Grand Millennial.....I never knew that it had a name. I just love things that remind me of my childhood 💕💕💕 Thank you Sherry for sharing all the great decorating ideas 🥰
Well, I’m still Farmhouse. But, everything you do is always well done and incredible. I did like and learn the crockpot tip. Who’d known??!! Can’t wait for more tips.
Are you supposed to warm the metal or just soak? Did I miss that part?
@@paulineesposito7250 Turn the Crock Pot on.
So cozy.
Hello from Poland.
*sniff* I feel so validated! I’m back in style! 😆. Seriously, though, I think we should make our homes reflect what we find beautiful, uplifting, comforting etc.
Hi love the transformation! I love displaying collections and I appreciate how well yours are displayed. I live on a real farm now 23 yrs and never went for the sterile white look...and before or within the last year when everything went boho I had always accented with boho bc it goes so well with southwest and horse decor ( we have horses).... Since living here I have always been eclectic and Granny Chic I guess.....I love the lived in layered over time look❣️ I am very sentimental and I decorate with what I love....not what is in style. My fathered refinished furniture and had a love of old things....taught me old stuff made better, etc The best compliment I get is when people say they feel so comfortable in my home! Thank you for sharing 😊kim
First time I’ve seen one of your videos. I love your style and ideas. Some of the best I’ve ever seen. Thank you for sharing your talent with the rest of us!
I will be looking a cabinet I can ‘update’ to look like the green one you did.
I am so glad you liked it! 😊 I forgot to mention that it is the top of a china cabinet!
You are the sweetest human being I’ve ever seen. I just wanna hug you! Is that weird?
I don’t think I’ve ever had a certain “style”. I don’t care about trends, never have & never will. My apt is pretty crazy eclectic & people always comment on how they love that they notice something new every time they’re here. Your on screen list only cracks the surface of how I live. Yup, I said it! Everything from; antique, vintage, modern, art, books, collectibles (bottles, metal lunch boxes, clocks, figurines, old suitcases) plants, pattern, color, rattan, caning, velvet, mixed matches...etc...love it all ❤️
You are so sweet, Dana! Hugs to you, too! 🥰 Your home sounds amazing! Good for you for following your own style and making your home a place that reflects your interesting personality!
I love the way you recreate items. It is right up my alley.
