Back many years ago in anothe lifetime, I worked as a licensed interior
designer. I hate to bring ethnicity into this, but it always seemed to be
either Jewish or Italian clients with "a bit" of money who had literally
everything covered in plastic...custom made plastic slipcovers, lampshade
covers, you name it. It was hard not laugh on a first visit.
