See, our coffee table is exactly the right size for two people to stand on and dance. This is where my dilemma arises.

We've just bought a lovely new rug (!) with a lovely design on it, but the right-size-for-dancing coffee table occupies too much of the rug design. So I'm thinking I could replace it with a smaller coffee which might open up the space or it might have the opposite effect where the wrong-size smaller piece of furniture actually makes the room seem smaller. Plus, the current coffee table has lots of crayon and scribble marks and it's been scrubbed so many times the stain has worn off the the top - maybe it's just safer to stick with it until my children have university degrees and have left home.

By the way - to the person who used the words "formal lounge" - ENVY. That is all.
