So in case you were wondering (you weren't), my big bedroom makeover is going to be ready soon! But there are a few crucial things I need before it'll function as a proper Gay Hipster Sex Cave (read: I eat pizza alone in my bed there!) such as a more phallic collection of cacti (sweet jesus, I cannot stop insinuating that everything looks like a penis to me, I'm not even trying, I swear) and some more art. I'm thinking that I'll put up one of those "floating" shelves above my bed (as seen in the top-left hand picture) and keep some framed pieces there; I also really love the way that shelf in the bottom pic looks with the really minimal, staggered frames. I was thinking of having an industrial-looking ladder, on the legs of which I could display 'zines or something, but have yet to find one that's the right mix of industrial chic and rustic bohemian glamour. Damn.
I also also really love (degree in English!) that whoever owns that bottom apartment decided to showcase mostly nudes—I think it looks so cool to show you've been collecting something you're passionate about, rather than just hanging another "PARIS IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA" poster. Although, Paris is always a good idea and if you want to take me there and buy me things and won't judge how much I eat, then get in line, silver foxes!
Back to the point I was sort-of trying to make—I've been buying art here and there and actually have my own little collection of nude portraits that I'm really happy with. I don't know why I gravitate towards nude figure drawings, maybe it's because I've always loved Egon Schiele's work? Or, maybe, this is all to say that I'm a 26-year-old manchild who can't stop thinking about sex and is subconsciously building a shrine to it. Awesome!
