(no subject)
i moved into a new apartment last week.
it's a 4/4 townhouse with separate leases for each bedroom, so even though it's pretty spacious, i am confined to my little room. but it's cozy.
this is my dresser. i made it out of some televisions that i picked out of a dumpster and coffee table legs from the trash. i primed and painted everything, then bolted together the tv's and screwed on the legs. now it holds my undies, socks, shorts, etc.
this is cecilia
my desk area, my andy warhol munny
don't buy this clock from fred flare because:
1- you can get it cheaper (half price) in other stores
2- the hourly chime is sooo annoying
3- it's a piece of crap
also, this is not my family, but i really loved this picture.
i pulled this chair out of someone's trash, primed/painted it, re-upholstered the pad with tacky last supper fabric and added even tackier gold fringe.
the rug is from urban outfitters.
i got the lamp for $4 at goodwill, emptied the crap that was in it, filled it with dirt and planted succulents inside. there are pictures of the whole process in my flickr. a bird made a nest in the wreath on my front door and abandoned it, so i took it and coated it with acrylic sealer. and that's the office fish tank from fred flare. it's very cute, but i suggest buying a nano filter for it so you don't have to clean it every other day.
more of the terrarium lamp, and my dad's dental impressions (they're upside-down, but crooked nonetheless)
i made the grasshopper and sparrow out of construction paper, and i made the andy warhol banana out of some jersey fabric and black paint. the dinosaur was thrifted (i got a whole set of them and gave them to my friends).
also, i paint shoes.
my bathroom. andy warhol shower curtain, self-portrait
framed lichtenstein poster ($1 at goodwill). i love paint-by-numbers. the top-left and bottom-right are some really ugly paintings that a friend and i painted things on.
the side of my fridge and my collection of doll parts
i'm not very good at making panoramas.
i am proud to say, though, that i hung all of these pictures in one shot with no level.
1- my dad and one of our chickens
2- a large framed photo i found in a thrift store (on of my favorite pictures ever)
3- a professionally-framed photo of l'arc de triomphe ($4 at goodwill)
