Nerdy Home Decorating

For a brief second there, home decorating was my new internet - it was my crack. I was addicted to cleaning out closets, rearranging bookshelves and furniture and entire rooms, until eventually my energy was spent and I wound down on the couch and hey, what's this? Internet? And here I am.

I'm not especially good at decorating yet, I am still fairly new to this hobby. And with a husband who is an action figure and book collector and adamant about having those things on display in the front room, there is the added challenge of compromise. In the end, I had fun playing with themes and incorporating nerdy elements in an aesthetically pleasing way:

Putting Eddie with the concert DVD's!

Using my fancy looking university books to give a multi-tiered look on top of the cubby

Putting the FFIX figures next to colorful books and Salvadorean masks to bring out their colors

The FFVII figures with a fan backdrop

Putting my Easter decoration bunny next to Alice in Wonderland

Putting the dragon pencils and dragon statuette and next to my Slayers manga

I know, I went a little crazy there with the themes, huh? This was so much fun, I'm quite pleased with the outcome!
