Mixing Decor

I find myself attracted to modern, retro stuff. Could be my age, lol. Anyway, is it OK to mix tradition, retro, and contemporary as long as the color and theme are on the same page? I'm into wine decor and burgundy, warm colors. Am I tacky?

Giorgina: I am so terribly sorry that I haven't been able to answer literally dozens and dozens of questions that readers have sent us. We're just so swamped and don't have the time to keep up anymore.

Rather than leave them waiting in the queue, I've decided to post the questions here anyway in hopes that other readers might be able to help answer some of these questions. Please, if you're reading this and want to help out, leave your comment and try to help if you can. Thank you!
