Annals of interior decorating




This was Dotland before the Black Dot Queen redecorated. The pleasing paint colors, the functional and welcoming front door, the comfortable interior were all left from the Diva's previous redecoration. Of course, the Black Dot Queen wanted to put her own STAMP (spoken firmly with a sharp stomping movement of the right foot) on Dotland.
The Black Dot Queen has a unique decorating style, sometimes described with words such as "broken", "disfunctional" and "catastophic". She calls the style "rightsizing". Dotland after the Black Dot Queen's attentions is shown below. This is a variant of rightsizing normally referred to as "capsizing" or sometimes "dumbsizing". The caution tape adds a nice touch. While the Queen was able to "redecorate" Dotland, she had only limited success in redecorating the Dots. She was able to eliminate Pink and Navy from the color palatte but Silver broke out in Fuschia and the Dots bring in Indigo and Cornflower to round out their original color palatte. Note the lack of an entrance. The Black Dot Queen hoped that eliminating an entrance into Dotland will make it easier for her to close it completely. However, with typical dotgenuity, the Dots and their friends manage to carry on.
