What a difference a day makes!


Mr Nylon is one happy chappy! The not so pesky decorator worked late into the night (without being paid overtime) and look at the sight Bri woke up to this morning. The decorator even cleaned up! (Mr Nylon is also especially pleased with himself now that he has figured out how to stand up without leaning on anything!) Mrs Nylon will also be very pleased that the lounge now has more of a 'country look' to it.
'Ahhh, yes!' he is thinking, 'this is the life, a room free from the wife's clutter'. (The wife and children have sensibly gone to visit relatives in Shabbyville). 'Hmmm, maybe I'll just make a cup of coffee...' (He can't afford to buy a coffee now that he's redecorated. And new clothes are simply out of the question, he's a man and sees nothing wrong with the outfit he's been wearing for the last twenty or so years, there's still plenty of wear left in it!)

'Doh! *^#$* Didn't there used to be a door here!'

Why yes, there was a door but the decorator never liked it, all it did was take up valuable wall space where the wife can have extra shelves for designer knick-knacks and bric-a-brac, the things that make a house a home. Do not worry there is another door into the kitchen on the other side of the fireplace, it will take a while but Mr Nylon will figure it out.
Poor Bri has yet to see the disaster that awaits him in the kitchen...

  1. Ooops! I hope Mr.Nylon didn't injure his head too badly! I love what you've done with the lounge! I agree, I'd rather have shelves for knick-knacks than a extra door!

  2. Oh you make me laugh Mercedes...a good 'bang' to the head probably never hurt him!!!
    You have been busy, I do hope that you really didn't do all that work last night...if so, you will be the next one to walk into walls!!

  3. LOL - That is too funny. I can just imagine him walking into the wall. What a hoot! Great story line - he is just lucky that the decorator finished so fast and cleaned up after her. (What is in the kitchen????)

  5. Oh no, poor old Bri should talk to my other half - they sound like kindred spirits! Perhaps they could exchange redecorating stories over a beer....

  6. All too cute...lol . Poor guy bumped into the wall though, maybe if he held his head up higher he would have seen it. Although I have seen men walk by something that's not suppose to be there on the floor and just leave it there. Oh maybe that's why his head was down. I can't help but notice what a typical man he is though laying on the couch in the newly finished room and reading instead of picking up that dustpan full and that broom and getting rid of it. Must be nice.

    Oh.....I was cleaning out a drawer the other night, and came across a bunch of magazines I printed out for a certain someone.....I forgot I had put them up to dry!! LOL....One day I'll get them in the mail! I just forgot for a minute!! Hahaha!!!

  8. Pobre señor, menudo trabajo que le espera. Ahora la habitación ha ganado al sacarle la puerta. Muy bien.

  9. Oh well now the decorator has redeemed herself, that wallpaper is to die for! Where on earth did she find such lovely print?
    My Nylon's high heeled shoes may have something to do with him being able to stand upright?!

  11. I love his stance in the first pic with his hand's on his hips- like he's trying to decide if it is all right or not. Mr. Nylon will be broke if this continues! Trying to wait patiently for the kitchen :)

  12. Poor Mr. Nylon--does he know how to make coffee even if he can afford it?! I have been re-decorating myself over this weekend (had a rare Saturday off and most of the day yesterday before we had the wedding we were directing) so took all of the pitchers, plates and miscellaneous kitchen stuff off the tops of my cabinets, washed them all, vacuumed off the shelves (I do this once or twice a year) and am still working on putting it all back up--have to stand on the counter to do this which can be dangerous as I'm a bit uncoordinated when it comes to heights!

    Love the country look of the house. I'm glad Mr. Nylon is happy with it.

  13. So funny! Poor Mr. Nylon, I hope he finds the other doors soon, so he won't get head injuries!
    But I think the decorator did a great job!

  14. Hahahaha Mercedes, I see I have missed this wonderful post :). It appears you too are having fun with your dolls :). Mr Nylon is quite a character. Did he notice that his shirt must have came from the wall? LOL! No wonder he didn't have to buy clothes, just tear from the wall!! Nylon will fit in perfectly with his friends in Singapore:)
