Many years ago, i wouldn’t think of nothing speaking money on furnishing the house. But of course things are different if you are spending the man’s money.. and not making your own. I love fanciful stuff.. who doesn’t . .and many year ago, i would never think of buying them only when they are on sale. I want something.. and i want it now. Life sure changes.. once you have kids eh..?? We finally got the curtain rods that we want for our tv room too. Nice or not..?? Not ex either.. !
