Her entire office is a juxtaposition of emptiness and clutter. Four desks all very close together in one corner and no other furniture at all. Bare walls everywhere except the cluttered-looking medal wall. The desktops bare except one very cluttered, full desk with her computer.
She has absolutely no knack for creating visual harmony.
Yes!!
It’s maddening, & how can she NOT care?!?!
If I had her money & knew I had no talent for decorating, I’d hire someone to help.
But she’s soooooo stubborn & just always so sure her way is the right way, she’d never listen to anyone else - even a professional decorator.
And, also, if I were her (& thank God I’m not), there’s a part of me that I know would be like “Oh, yeah, Tensleigh? You think your new house is so perfect? Well, here’s mine!”
And, even if I couldn’t look as good in a bikini as my ex-husband’s new wife does, my home would be warm & stylish - and I’d be doing my level best to make HER jealous of my single gal’s “Barbie Dream House.”
Because there’s NO WAY I’d be okay w/ my own 2 kids comparing their home w/ Daddy & his new wife to their home w/ me & my home be lacking & not as good & w/ them preferring Daddy’s home to my home.
I mean, my God, Jen, have you NO self pride?!
