Home Decor of the 1970s



The 1970s were a dismal time for home decor, full of earth tones and homecrafts that will make you laugh today, even as it takes you back to your parents' home... or maybe Grandma's. As a child of the '70s, I can assure you that it was ugly even at the time, but since everyone's home looked the same, it didn't matter much. We pretended it was natural and "earth-friendly" as we learned to make macrame wall hangings in art class and spilled cigarette ashes on the shag carpet.
