The decorating shows are always healthy. There is no violence -- unless you call tearing up tile violence!

Everyone is good to one another. They have a good time.

I have never seen any arguments. Everyone knows how to say things.

The other day there was a designer who was going to paint one wall of the woman's living-room orange. The lady expressed her doubt that it might be too much, too overpowering. The designer didn't say: "Look, I'm the designer, and I know what I'm doing."

He handled her doubt saying something like:

"We wouldn't do it on this other wall. It would be too powerful there. But this wall is also going to have bookcases. Furthermore, we are going to carry the orange down this hallway that comes off the orange wall, and it will take everyone's eyes down the hall, making the hall magnficent!"

When he finished speaking, the lady was HAPPY!

Yes, those designers know how to handle disagreements.

Am I the only one who loves the decorating shows?

With love and blessings,

Gloria
