Does anybody know the origin of the phrase: "does the carpet match the drapes?"
Is it originally from a movie? or is it one of those phrases that just sprouts up?

Doth the rug matcheth' the drapery?

Pretty sure Shakespeare quoted that one.

Probably the first red headed cavewoman interior designer uttered that phrase, in jest of course.
