Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. Sometimes it is only worth two, but those two in themselves are worth more than a thousand words. Or something like that.

I was searching through the Jysk website to try and find a picture of the wicked hand-chair that we bought for Freya today for a mere £10, when I came across the children’s bedroom section. I would not have paid to much attention to the page, but for the two pictures shown, illustrating what one could do with a few Jysk products and no imagination.

First, something for the small lady in your life:

And now for something completely different:

The only things missing from the latter bedroom is a couple of beer-cans and a few porn mags under the bed. I’m not saying that this is a totally unjust picture of the world we live in, where girls jump about in their pinkdom, singing carefree songs about the colour purple, but this is pandering to gender-stereotypes.

Oh, those were the two words I was meaning when I wrote about two words being worth more than a thousand. Or something like that.
