<\/a><\/p>\nPhoto: IKEA<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Grandmas get a bad rap for their taste in home decor. We judge their matching furniture sets, their penchant for pattern mixing, and their fuzzy toilet lid covers (that can\u2019t be hygienic, right?). But as the saying goes, everything old is new again, and that couldn\u2019t be truer of these nine once outdated home decor trends. Keep scrolling to find out which of your granny\u2019s favorite styles are regaining popularity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n Photo:\u00a0jeffreybilhuber\/Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n We thought we\u2019d never live to see the revival of these ornately printed textiles. Chintz is coming for your wall coverings, your accent chairs, your bed linens and your sofa cushions \u2014 no corner is to be left un-chintzed! Even IKEA, who famously instructed the Brits to ‘chuck out the chintz’ in the 1990s, is bringing back floral prints in a big way. Case in point: the pattern on pattern living room seen at the top of this article, showcasing IKEA\u2019s EKTORP sofa.<\/span><\/p>\n Photo:\u00a0abohemiansattic\/Instagram<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n This weaving technique dates back thousands of years \u2014 shortly before your grandmother was born. All jokes aside, cane furniture is timeless and lends a tropical flair to your interior. Modern iterations include cane headboards, cabinets and privacy screens. Boho-leaning retailers such as <\/span>Urban Outfitters<\/span><\/a> have fully embraced the trend, making cane furniture accessible to the budget-conscious.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Photo:\u00a0huitlaguna\/Instagram<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Before you take a sledgehammer to the bathroom of your fixer-upper, consider the retro appeal of pink tile. The pastel hue is reemerging on Instagram, in bathrooms both new and old. Whether you choose to <\/span>embrace the vintage tile<\/span><\/a> you\u2019ve got or clad your shower in <\/span>elongated pink subway tile<\/span><\/a>, this is one granny trend that shouldn\u2019t be overlooked.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Photo:\u00a0_lolaandlolo_\/Instagram<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Shell yeah, we\u2019re embracing this grandma-approved decor trend. Seashell-shaped throw pillows began popping up on our feeds just a few months ago, and since then the motif has grown to include incense holders, wall sconces, soap dispensers and more.<\/p>\n Photo:\u00a0shylacino\/Instagram<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n As a kid, you may have poked fun at your grandma\u2019s rattan patio set. Complete with tropical print upholstery and a coordinating coffee table, it probably looked like a tiki bar had taken over the sunroom. But these days, Millennials are raiding their grandparents’ basements for furniture made from this renewable, natural material.<\/p>\n Photo:\u00a0fleuralice\/Instagram<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Earlier this year, <\/span>Real Simple<\/span><\/a> declared dried flowers the \u201cbiggest flower trend of 2019.\u201d Display your dried out blooms in ceramic bud vases or wedged between panes of glass. They\u2019ll last far longer than fresh cut flowers and can be reused season after season. Your frugal grandmother would certainly applaud this trend!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Photo:\u00a0ltstudio__lviv\/Instagram<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Glass block, also referred to as glass brick, dates back to the early 1900s, but hit its peak in the 1980s. This practical material draws in natural light while providing privacy, making it an ideal solution for entryways, bedrooms and bathrooms. To make glass block look modern, use it boldly \u2014 a single window or shower surround may look out of place.<\/p>\n Photo:\u00a0orior_furniture\/Instagram<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Fringe-trimmed lounge chairs, ottomans, light fixtures, mirrors and throw pillows are springing up everywhere. For a look that\u2019s stylish, not stuffy, opt for modern silhouettes. We\u2019re currently crushing on this <\/span>fringe chandelier<\/span><\/a> from Anthropologie and this <\/span>two-piece mirror set<\/span><\/a> from Wayfair.<\/span><\/p>\n Photo:\u00a0degournay\/Instagram<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n1.
