I love looking at design magazines..Domino, Dwell, etc. ...these incredible houses with beautiful furniture...nothing out of place...and I think to myself, "Wonder what that house looked like before it was "magazine-ized". The "real" house. I bet it was something more like this:

Baby placed on the lamp by Brooklyn.

Stack of last year's calendar, flag waiting for a flag holder, various and sundry items.

Console filled with keys, CDs, checkbook, etc.
