And what do you recommend to hang on walls, for decorative purposes, besides family photos?

Mine are blank and barren, an empty canvas for the maniacal decorator in me, after carefully negotiated with the family.

  • I live in a relatively small 1br apartment, so I don’t have a huge amount of wall to decorate, but what I do have, I’ve decorated with a semi-random assortment of things I like.

    In the living room I have a couple prints of famous paintings I like, Cafe Terrace at Night by Van Gogh and Nighthawks by Edward Hopper. I got these in art gallery gift shops ages ago.

    Above my turntable I have a couple framed album covers I like: ELO’s Out Of The Blue and Halestorm’s Remastered self-titled (the black and neon colourscheme of both covers look nice together IMO)

    Above my desk I have my university degree framed.

    In my bedroom I have a big ol’ Canadian flag hanging above my bed.

    On the wall opposite the front door of my apartment I have a watercolour painting my younger brother did of the lake at our family’s cottage.
