RS also needs more dividers to choose from like wrought iron dividers for the french theme. I loved the idea of large windows like what we just had for the Cruise Ship theme, but for the French theme you could make those large French double windows and even the door can have a nice window in it too. Decor items can include the Mona Lisa painting, large posters that read, "Bon Appetit" or "Bistro Francais", or french style outdoor lamps, traditional sconces for the wall, a display of a French guy painting on a canvas while wearing a beret (that could be a goal item actually). You could also include some large street trees, large flowers in a vase, or even a French waiter, a free standing vintage style watering can. Black & white strip with wainscoting would make a nice wall paper for indoor style or even a damask pattern and somehow a wall paper featuring a ******d scallop edge awning for outdoor styles.
Anyway, I think you get my drift. Now get to it...chop, chop. LOL!
