As I look around my house at my new furniture arrangements, attractive floor accessories and lovely stairway barriers, I must admit that I never thought the time would come that I would be forced to redecorate against my will. Alas, a new member of the household has a very distinct opinion on how my living room should look. You should meet him. Short, round, handsome, and very quick on his knees, he has dictated virtually every new look you will find in all of my rooms. No longer do we have a nice collection of Golf and Martha Stewart magazines on the coffee table or nice coasters with tall glasses of water. Oh, and that aformentioned table now resides as an artistic barrier to the screen of the tv. I don't know about anyone else, but I prefer large living room ottomans placed strategically in the middle of my foyer (oh, also blocking the entrance the second set of stairs) for that welcoming affect, "Please, come right in, don't mind the ottoman." I suppose you didn't know that the new thing is to place your dining room chairs on their sides, again conveniently in front of open walkways. It is all the rage according to C.S.. Finally, while I used to prefer a nice, open look to my living room floor, Mr. Williamson has convinced me night after night that it just looks so much better covered in primary colored plastic objects and cardboard literature. I think he's quite gifted and I will probably continue to listen to his decorating advice for some time to come. Please, stop by, he would love to show you his work. (I'll post some video of our little speed demon in the next few days--I think he'll be walking by Halloween!)
