Grandma’s House

I have this goal to make my house as grandma like as possible. It is, after all, a 1941 bungalow with a rock veneer on the front and a corner window. This means from the ’40s paint colors (two shades of yellow, a steely blue-gray, an icy light blue and a slightly institutional green) down to the kitschy details. So, I have vintage and new mirrors that look like what a grandma would like (or keep from the olden times), a bit of a mid-century owl collection, shadowboxes and needlepoint art.

Aside from perpetually baking pies, what details, quirky items, etc., would make a house “grandma’s house?”
