As you can see, I’ve got an old Star Wars poster (I think it was $5 online somewhere), a giant metal “And” symbol (I think Kara got this for me), and some metal tin-type comic signs from Hobby Lobby (wait until they are on sale for half-off; otherwise, you a sucka!). The Optimus Prime poster was also a Kara-present from a place here in Austin. The Luke and Darth posters are from an etsy shop. There are more from that set on the other walls. Also throughout are a couple of pics of our kids and photos/art I made. The W stands for “why so much stuff in this room?”. Or our last name.
Stepping back, you can see some more of the tin-type posters and other Star Wars posters from etsy. I’ve also got two framed pieces of wrapping paper (crazy!) that had cool designs. One is a vintagey, New York themed one. The other is a collection of different sci-fi, comic book characters. Both of those were from Paper Source. Also, an old camera of Kara’s is hanging up to give me indie/art cred. I don’t think it actually works.
My Big Ben curtain/tapestry was a replacement for a double-sided, sliding door that was originally on the closet. It sucked, because you could only access half of the closet at a time. So, I took them off, attached an industrial pipe over the frame (from Home Depot), and used some Ikea curtain hangers to hold it up. It’s a nice way to give a more ‘open’ feel to an otherwise small room. And it smells way better than real-life London.
