Default How true . . .

Had to laugh. My younger sister is a writer, a very witty one. Years ago, she wrote an article for Columbus Monthly Magazine based on winning a drawing for 2 bird prints from a local furniture store.

Long story short, she ended up buying a chair that coordinated with the framed pictures, then redecorating the entire room to go with the chair. If I ever get a copy of her article, I'll give you a copy, Pooh. You'd love it.

I'm currently struggling with a similar scenario. I moved about 22 times in my adult life, finally in the last 5-10 moves, got my furniture coordinated enough that I could move pieces back and forth into different rooms in different houses as needed.

Problem is, now I'd kind of like to try some different colors, but when I look around and actually figure out what I would need to change, it is very daunting (and expensive) to go a different route. Plus, I still really like some of my stuff in the old color scheme. What to do, what to do. Probably nothing, or just change a bedroom, which is a lot easier than the whole house. Gives me something to think about, anyway.
