<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 172619, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> I have all kinds of furniture in my house. The neighbors think it is a museum. They all bought 1990s furniture new into their retirement home. They all have white walls, green or pink wall to wall carpeting. When they walk into my place with Mission furniture, Queen Anne, Victorian and Deco stuff everywhere. They are amazed. Everyone was a afraid to hang pictures and stuff on these new walls. My walls are red some grey some beige, all have light blue ceilings (to keep cob webs and bugs away). I tiled the floors and have oriental carpets on them, just about every wall is covered with pictures, shelves and cabinets etc. My one neighbor was telling me about how she had bought a Lenox vase for her house and was so proud. She almost stroked when she walked into mine. One shelf had 25 Lenox vases on it. I told her I loved Lenox and had over 150 pieces plus a dinner set for 12. She laughed and said "how did I afford it all." I laughed and said most of it I got at yards sales for 3 or 4 dollars apiece or cheaper some 50 cents.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
