Use Online Classifieds to Help Decorate Your Home

Age of Aquarius Home Suite Style

Many astrologers herald April of 1995 as the beginning of the “Age of Aquarius”. That year in the San Francisco Bay Area, Craig Newmark began an email distribution list, posting notices of social events of interest to friends.

That list grew into what we know today as Craigslist. According to astrologers the Age of Aquarius is dominated by networks where information is given freely to humanity. This sums up the function of Craigslist and other online shared economy sites sufficiently. A simple search on online classified sites may just be the connectivity you need to link you to that wish-list piece for your home.

This style page is brought to you by the dawning of the Aquarian Age, where golden living dreams of visions are now just an internet search away.

  • Yes, to all this. Especially love the indigo toss cushions! Last summer we bought a floor lamp off Craigslist, nothing that would make a style page but we like it.
