I saw this in the Times today, and I thought, 'Someone needed an article to tell them this?' Not only are kids not decor, they are decor destructos, unless, of course, your decorator is Fisher Price!
By the way, long-time follower and fan of the blog. Thanks for all the lovely and interesting things you share with us.
How wonderful to put aesthetics before a child's safety... Also, is it wrong that the whole time i was reading the article, I was trying to figure out where i might find the rug in this photo??
Anyone recognize it and could tell me where it comes from?
I too was thinking about the rug during this read (it is nice).
Sometimes, one has to choose - minimalism or children, perfection visually or safety, you just can't have it both ways. Self absorption and children don't mix.
