I hear ya. We take long periods of time to carefully decorate things, saving frequently as we do so. Dining tables are particularly problematic as when you sit down, that often results in an explosion of flatware, food, plates, etc.

In response to that, we generally stick with 'pre-decorated' tables. When Buffy sits at a table in one of the MG guild halls or a tavern and experiences a 'table explosion', we just chuckle, knowing that all will reset if left on its own for three days.
Fortunately, the only 'house' Buffy owns is her wonderful apartment at the Arcane University. When dear KC made that mod for her, he wisely and fully 'decorated' the dining table. That way, it will happily reset itself (after three days) in the event of a mishap.
