DH Made Fun of My Candlesticks

It was Professor Plum in the living room with the candlestick. :-(

I plan to make some changes to my mantel today.

Try again and post a pic so we can help you get it right

I made some tweaks, but I'm going to live with it for a few hours. I'll post a pic later today if I like it.

Just keep playing with it.
And for the record, my H makes fun of everything I buy/do. Decor isn't his thing at all so I just do what I like anyways.
Case in point, I bought a new quilt for our bed last week I love. H sees it, says, "That looks like something our Norwegian-German ancestors brought over on the Mayflower to use in their wigwams in the middle of a hippie compound."
He's poking fun at my history degree too.

LOL! DH has opinions and input into all of our decor, which sucks. In general, we agree on the style of a home, but not on the styling.

Oh I feel you. If my H has an opinion, it's usually negative. Which is awesome because he tells me he hates something but sucks because if he is ambivalent on it, he does the usual "whatever you want, dear" routine which drives me up the wall.

You should throw one at him - call it behavioral conditioning.

FI has a ton of opinions and is usually firm about them. I'll post a picture later of our new bed which is more modern than we were originally going for and the two different opinions of art.
