The old thread was closed, and I wanted to show off THIS:
so I started a new one. My new office in my new house! No, I'm really not done unpacking yet.

WOW! The walls look great in that pic. Looks like you put the paint on right. Maybe you should just put up a bunch of pics of that color all around that room
They're still a little uneven, but I think that the patterns I painted on take enough attention away so it looks like i did it on purpose. I just cant bear the thought of another coat.
And once I get the piano in there I'll start finalizing the arrangement and hanging pictures and stuff. I'm thinking about getting poster frames for the LotR posters and decorating with those. ^_^
Oh yeah, and thanks for the help Rog
That red is waaaaaaaay bright. I would probably throw myself down a ravine after an hour of exposure.
Then again, I've always been a fan of neutral and earth tones, and think that Ethan Allen color schemes are a faux pax and an abomination.
Just so long as you don't put in any clashing accents
so the purple and green striped couch is a bad idea?
I'm going to be putting the rest of the decor in black and white photographs, or MAYBE my lotr posters. maybe. They might look like crap on that bright red. The piano going in there will be a shiny black upright. SO EXCITED A PIANO YAY!!
oh yeh and Ethan Allen is my nephew.
Black & white accents would be nice. Get furniture trimmed in wrought iron maybe?
yeah I wish.
Guess who I saw in concert last night?

1964 to be exact they had costumes for all of the eras, it was great. they had the personalities and voices down to a t.
I went autocrossing today, and I'm kicking myself for forgetting my camera. Hopefully pictures will be up from someone else soon.
Holly... those walls are very... RED! But the black & white will really stand out. It'll look very art deco!
Why not? Its not really that expensive.Originally posted by James Prent
yeah I wish.
I'm buying a piano instead of a new desk.
It should be here before new Years.
What kind of piano? And do you play?
I have one of those kinds that stands up against a wall, for lack of a better description. Forgot the brand. It used to belong to my grandma, and then my mom had it, and now I have it (though technically it's still at my mom's house as it wouldn't make sense to move it to the apartment when we might get a condo come next year... too much piano moving )
Originally, I wsn't thinking of takign it, but then Joe plays the piano and he really wanted one, so I figured we'd just take my grandma's. So, I asked mom, and she said to go for it. I'm thinking I'll keep it running in the family as sort of an heirloom.
She went to school on a music degree IIRC.Originally posted by AmazonBabe

I like the red room, Holly.
I don't have a picture, but I wish I had a camera tonight. I saw the Canuck Double of Fett today at Mr Sub! If I can get a pic for comparison, I will.
The piano should be here before the new year. If all goes as planned.
And *yes* Rie, Charley is correct, I went to school for a major in music/piano. I did that for two years. Since leaving school I haven't *had* a piano in my possession (mom and dad own the one I learned on) and so I'm VERY excited to finally have my own. I started playing when I was 8 years old.
