Gypsy Cribs... Better Homes and Gardens, here's your next feature story.


Recession. Tough times. For some -- tougher than for others. Take the Russian gypsies, for example. The unfortunate souls can't even afford a designer to add some pizzazz to their interiors. Or maybe, their houses are so drab and lifeless on purpose? After all, there 's not a speck of pattern or color anywhere -- gray and more gray to reflect the times.

You can't help but feel sorry for the nouveau riche. They must constantly exercise restraint to avoid hurting the feelings of neighbors who might not have enough money to spend on gilded furniture and multiple rugs per room. Hence the dull and monotone interiors -- blending in to avoid looking like drug dealers, for example. Props for modesty, gypsies!
