“People are yearning for spaces that burst with color, comfort, and character, reflecting their individual personalities and creating a welcoming sanctuary that feels uniquely their own,” reads a Pinterest press release. This is further proven with an uptick in searches for "grandma core bedroom," "whimsical decor," "vintage eclectic home," and more.
