Can I comment on this? I mean, it is my blog and all. But will you be offended? No? Oh, thank god. Because that is the ugliest 4,000 euro cactus coat rack I have ever seen. Oy.

4K euros? Really? For a styrofoam glitter cactus? Wow.

I think it’s hideous too, though I don’t find hideousness necessarily objectionable or noteworthy. The thing I’m going to spend more time thinking about is: what on earth kind of home is this going to fit into? I mean, is there a Southwestern Cocaine Disco Spaceman school of interior design that I’ve just never heard of before? And if so, shouldn’t it also light up and spin around?

In certain parts of Europe (including Iceland, Germany, Latvia and Mikonos) there is a Euro-Desert Southwest style that is all the rage among the largest growing segment of the 55-65 year range.
Or so they tell me.
