Here and now, but hot into the hereafter? SANDRA SNYDER WALL TO WALL
21.05.12
&Rdquo; domestic decisions we made five or 10 years ago that suddenly have us questioning our own sensibilities. Or very sanity.
Humble piece of advice: If you’re hanging at home while simultaneously staring forlornly into the face of the future and lamenting some silly call you made in the past, don’t act rashly. Wait it out. Your time will come.
Welcome, 2012. I’m proud to let y’all know my time finally has. Patience has paid off, my pals, just when I thought I’d never see the day.
Which day is that? (You might ask.) Well, none other than that glorious one on which my stars – or actually my colors – have aligned with what the “leading authorities” have decreed “in” and “it,” and suddenly I can credibly say it: Yeah, that’s right. I’m cool. On trend. My house is hot, baby.
Today, I am most pleased to announce that my almost-famous orange countertops – they that have many times over nearly been traded for granite or soapstone or whatever budget-minded imitation had captured my imagination for a spell, usually after I’d returned from say what the hot color is. Hardly. Instead, they pre-declare said hot color, even before the ball drops, daring anyone to speak differently. The goal, near as I can tell, is to work us all into a frenzy for new stuff in a new year.
