sometimes... the original state of an old clock and the OTT way somebody's repainted it can both be ugly, actually...
#like ultimately de gustibus &c but the cherry blossoms really tip it over into Full Tacky for me#however the original was also absolutely ugly and cheap and not worth preserving#anyway it's fine if we disagree!#this is why we all have our own spaces#but like. the aesthetic discourse on this site so often is like 'the only two options are Full Victorian or Full Ikea'#and like. actually a middle ground IS possible and probably desirable in a lot of instances????#anyway i grew up with a hoarder and i have ADHD so for a bunch of reasons i really value a certain amt of visual serenity in my living space#is where i'm coming from#and like. there's the sterile minimalism of hotels and then there's minimalism that actually really honors the beauty of household objects#and wants to create enough calm space around them to showcase them#and i just. really would love if the aesthetic discourse around here were less 'anyone who isn't Full Maximalist is an Oppressor‚ actually!'#possibly too much to expect from tumblr tho.#but like. i love beautiful objects. i like when my living space gives me enough psychological room to breathe#that i can appreciate those objects for themselves and they don't just become undifferentiated Clutter.#if your brain works differently that's fine! but it's an issue of competing access needs‚ not of like. one stance is Right and one is Wrong.#anyway. no one will see this post bc time zones and schedules but. tiny lil nose wrinkled.
