Making all pretty. Now I have to make it clean?

I have been working so hard to decorate the new place. I got this bench from Target for the dining room table, and then the wall where the chairs were was so blank, I was just so bothered. I got the bench last night, and after it was assembled, there was that damn blank space. Staring at me. Teasing me. Making me crazy. I had to do something to fix it. I'll paint it a different color, I thought. No, I will do some cool painting right on the wall. No, I will hang these pictures in the closet there. No. No. No. I will wallpaper it! No... So the brainstorming began, and I was on websites today looking for wall decals, borders, stencils and wall treatments. I was crazy! Why doesn't the huge pile of mail taunt me? Why does the treadmill not look at me the way this blank wall does? On the way home from work, I thought, should I go to the mall? Home depot? I need to fix this problem!

Tonight I picked up Andrew to go to dinner. On the way, A Pier One. Let's go look. There must be something there! Some sort of... YES. Perfect... I can't wait until you see in in the space. It just works. The colors, the size, everything. And, on sale!
