Hailey: Elwin and I had what might be our toughest job ever.
Elwin: You can say that again, Hailey.
H: Elwin and I had what might be our toughest job ever.
E: Sigh. Let’s just show them the picture of Meriwether’s sitting room:
H: OK, so do you want to start, or should I?
E: Go ahead, Hailey. I…don’t know what to say.
H: Alright, well Meriwether invited us over to see her sitting room. Actually, Fluffington called us up and said, “I’ve told my great-aunt to call you and ask for your help, but even if she doesn’t, please go over anyway. Her sitting room is a disaster!”
E: You know what they always say, Hailey. No amount of KinzCash can buy good taste.
H: How true! The interesting part is that some of these items are absolutely stunning on their own, but when they’re thrown together in one big room, they…well…they don’t look their best.
E: Well put.
H: Thank you.
E: Anyway, here’s the end result:
H: It’s like a breath of fresh air!
E: Meriwether is examining the wallpaper, to make sure it’s not dinged. I told her we’d be careful, but…she just wanted to see for herself.
H: Anyway, I’m really pleased with how this turned out. We kept the flooring and the wallpaper just as they were. But we moved a LOT of stuff out. And added a few new things! The bookshelf, for one.
E: Ooh, I love that book nook. That was my inspiration for the corner – leisurely reading. I can just imagine Meriwether curling up on the chaise and reading a deliciously mysterious book – and maybe eating a fruit or two.
H:Not the ones in the bowl – those are wax.
E: Ahem. Anyway, we moved the furniture around the fireplace – and removed items so you could actually SEE the fireplace.
H: And we created a little dining area. Meriwether mentioned entertaining in her sitting room, and what’s more useful than a large table and a chair for each friend?
E: Finally, we created a little corner for Meriwether’s TV. That’s what’s hidden behind the cabinet! Meriwether doesn’t like to admit it, but she really enjoys soap operas.
H: Almost as much as teacups. I’m pretty delighted about how this turned out.
E: Me too, Hailey. And I don’t think Meriwether minds it either.
H: She’ll get used to it.
I don’t really like either. But from a designer, (me) I will say space- wise the second is way better with that. I am just not Mrs.Meriweathers style I guess. I like classic, yet modern.
Once again, Hailey and Elwin have made MAGIC!!! I just LOVE the way they do these room redesigns! In fact, I’ve been inspired lately. The other day I decided it was time to get a kitchen for Francesco, and we’ve been working on it slowly (mostly because I ran out of kinzcash after getting the fridge, oven, table, and counter… not to mention the flooring and wall paint). Tell them about it, Francesco!
Francesco: It’s been fun watching PixarPerson25 design this… well, Francesco, he did some work, too. He picked out the style for the room. Francesco finds that the lovely chrome appliances add a nice touch with some granite countertops and, by PixarPerson25′s choice, pastel green walls. It’s a work in progress, but it’s looking quite nice.
Me: Yeah, I hope it’s turning out OK, I’m not sure if the kitchen’s all working together at the moment, perhaps Hailey and Elwin will give us some advice as to how to make the kitchen a smidge modern and a smidge traditional with an overall warm, sunny feel without needing a Deluxe Membership. That would so rock!
I like the re-do because everything feels cleaner, less cramped. What I really love about it, though, is that Hailey and Elwin were able to keep lots of her original furniture. That’s awesome!
Have I said that you two are just the best? If not, I am saying it now. Great makeover! All the best! MDIChickadee
i’m sorry but am i the crazy one or is there no tv in the room although according to elwin there is one in the room!?!?! where is the tv???? :)
It is inside the big cabinet against the wall, the one next to the palm tree. You have to open the cabinet door in order to see it.
Hey leeaj I agree..
I couldnt find the TV either. Edwin even said it see_-:
“E: Finally, we created a little corner for Meriwether’s TV. That’s what’s hidden behind the cabinet!
yeah its in the cabinet
WOW!This room is fantastic.I love it!!!
___^^^☀ Tharisia ☀^^^___
Ohmyyellow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s a bit much don’t you think??????????? I love the flower power modular chairs why oh why did you get rid of them???!!!!!!
It is OK, but not your BEST work. Would of used a different wallpaper
Hmm… It is okay. But I have to say, you guys did a great job on the second room. The first one, you couldn’t even walk in. At first, I thought they were gonna decorate the wedding room. I hope they download a picture of the wedding room! :)

Hmmm……..not a fan on either, sorry guys. :roll: :roll:
~SM☀
Well, I guess the after one is ok.
it’s better that the before.
~LionLuvie
the new 1 is sooooo much more organized!!!!! and so much more modern!!! i love it!!!!
gobananas
I think the first one is VERY unorganized. It was okay but the second one is more sensible.
*Luv from LillyLuvie*
In my opinion Hailey and Elwin are the worst designers ever. I despise the second one, and the first one was still blah but I like Meriweather. Oh well. -Moonstar◙◙◙
You could do better Hailey and Elwin. Normally you wouldn’t find a dining room in a sitting area. xD
looks like my room! LOL ;)
Gah. I agree with you, LionLuvie. I don’t want to hurt feelings here, and I try not to be mean, but as a professional Webkinz Interior Designer, (I’m not affiliated with these two;)) I must say this was…a disaster.
Usually I like H&E’s designs, but this really didn’t work for me at all. The only thing I like, hmm…*rubs chin*I like the top corner with the bookshelf a little, but that’s it. The worst part of the room is how crowded the sofas are around the fireplace. The rest of the room is randomly placed, and the odd sofa does NOT work. I like the table, but it doesn’t go with this room. The large, dark table screams “Dining Room”, not “Friendly sitting room”. *Shakes head* I just…I’m sorry guys. This…No.
<3

This room is good but not the best one yet.
I couldn’t find the TV.But yes it is LOT more
organized then the first one. :-)
::::::::::Awesome♥GirL::::::::::
I kinda like the old one better! Your friend sarahandlacey! :lol: :mrgreen: ;-) :-) :roll:
I agree, the first one feels more at home with more things on the wall,the other one is just…………empty I guess.Oh well……………not MY house!
Love ccaterpillar
I agree with you too. I don’t like the second, it’s too empty and a little boring. The first one is more colorful, and even if it is a little unorganized and has too many colors, it still feels more home-y.
~QueenVet~
LOOOL. Me too! Hey, can I add you? You seem very kind! :D :) :P
The second one’s not much different, just more organized. ;-)
~♥CoconutCLoud♥~
Ugh. Too old-fashioned. Both of them.
~*~*~Gabriella♥~*~*~
I agree StarlightMagic. I don’t usually like Hailey and Elwin’s stuff. It’s too, well, MODERN. I just don’t particularly care for it.
