The Curator

Hello, I'm Shannon.

I created European Home Edit to gather the rooms, details, and pieces I return to again and again: romantic, collected, and unmistakably European.

How this started

A collection shaped by the details I love.

I started the @europeanhomeedit Pinterest account in March 2026 because I kept saving the same details: faded florals, weathered wood, blue-and-white ceramics, linen at the window, and rooms that looked as though they had evolved over years.

What began as a Pinterest account became this website, where I can organize those ideas by style and room and connect them to pieces that help create the same feeling at home.

I focus on French country, French coastal, English cottage, and romantic cottagecore interiors. After spending so much time comparing rooms and products, I can usually tell quickly if an item belongs. It should bring warmth, softness, history, or character without making a room feel themed.

My work here is visual curation. I look at the shape, finish, color, material, and scale of each piece, then explain why it fits the collection and how I would style it. I want beautiful pieces that feel collected rather than mass-produced to be easier to find.

The Standard

What I look for in every find

A piece does not need to be expensive. It does need to feel right.

Does it add warmth or softness?

Washed linen, aged wood, glazed ceramic, woven fibers, and warm metal keep a room from feeling flat or overly new.

Could it live in an older home?

If a piece would feel comfortable beside an antique table, paneled wall, or timeworn floor, it usually has the sense of history I want.

Is it timeless, not themed?

I favor quiet references such as scalloped edges, faded florals, woven texture, and dusty blue instead of obvious motifs.

Will it work in a real room?

I consider scale, usefulness, and how easily a piece can live with what someone already owns. A good find should help finish a room, not demand that the whole room change around it.

A note on shopping

How I choose and share products

European Home Edit participates in the Amazon Associates program. If you purchase through one of my links, I may receive a small commission. Your price stays the same, and affiliate links are clearly marked.

My notes focus on design: color, shape, material, finish, and how a piece could be styled. For dimensions, construction details, current availability, and firsthand customer experiences, I recommend checking the Amazon listing and recent reviews.

The look comes first. I only add a piece if I would genuinely use it in one of the rooms I save.
I keep the links consistent. The photo, Pinterest Pin, and Amazon link should all lead back to the same item.
Amazon has the latest details. Prices, stock, dimensions, and reviews can change, so I leave those details on the product page.
Please tell me when something changes. If a listing is different or a link no longer works, I want to fix it.

I want this site to feel like shopping with a friend who knows the look you love and has already done the sorting. If you have a question or spot something that needs attention, I'd love to hear from you.
