Help Seth and Jenna Decorate their Guest Room

Seth: Hi I’m Seth.

Jenna: And I’m Jenna.

Seth: We’re not real people but avatars–

Jenna: Quit being such a geek, Seth!

Seth: OK, sorry, fictitious characters.  We were invented by the editors of Gracious Style to help you see how design are a part of all of our lives.  So in our fictitious lives, Jenna and I are both in our late twenties.  I’m a Project Manager at a non-profit.

Jenna: And I’m a visual designer for a gaming company.  We’ve been going out for two years now, and we recently moved into a new place in Brooklyn.

Seth: Take a look at our Pinterest board to see what our corner of the world looks like.

Jenna: We’re still unpacking, but this is how we’d love our place to look like:

Seth: This place is so cool, with all the metal and brick and the old school lights.  I could spend hours hanging out with my buddies here.

Jenna: This one’s my favorite.  I love all the old details — the molding, the fireplaces and mirrors, and the floor.  It’s looks so antique-y but cool at the same time.

Seth: I like the wood and brick look here.

Jenna: Just remember our place looks nothing like that yet.

Seth: It’s not so bad.  Jenna’s made it pretty nice already.

Jenna: Thanks.  But we’ve still got a long way to go.

Seth:  Not too long now — my parents just announced they’re coming down from Wisconsin for the holidays, so we better get it ready by Christmas.

Jenna: Oh boy.

Seth: Huh? What’s wrong?

Jenna: Well, this’ll be the first time I meet them, and we’ve still got stuff in boxes.  I’m scared!

Seth: You’re scared?  Ha ha!  Last time they were out in Brooklyn was visiting Luger’s for steaks 15 years ago, so as long as they don’t get mugged, they’ll be happy.

Jenna: What Seth meant to say was: we want to make this place really nice for them when they come out.

Seth: Yeah, so could you give us some ideas on how we could set up the guest room for them?

Jenna: Pictures would be great.  I’m a visual person.

Seth: And I’m not good at imagining stuff, so yeah, pictures would help me too.

Jenna: We’ll retweet all your suggestions and add our favorites to our Pinterest board with a big “Thank you!”
