swingchickiethe austin powers room is on its way to being complete! how psyched am i?!?!
as some fo you guys know, i have a room in my apartment that i jokingly call the "austin powers room". it's partly my office, partly a lounge-y area for people to hang in (especially if i ever getting around to throwing a party, need to look into that!). i've wanted a room like this for years, mostly because it's just totally juvenile and fun. so when i found this apartment, the ex and i had agreed that it would be half-office, half-austin powers. the problem is, it quickly became an absolute mess... we were just buying stuff for it willy-nilly, with no real concept to it. so instead of being a cool, slick room to hang in, it was like this explosion of colors and crap. like, you'd have a seizure walking into the room.
so, anyway... last night,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
davissquarecats and his roomie came over, and took away the 2 pieces that were driving me the most bonkers: a giant blue velvet hand-shaped chair, and an ottoman shaped like a yellow puzzle piece. i know they will have a fantastic home with the guys. (and i'm bummed i didn't walk home with them... supposedly they got quite a few stares when they sat in the big hand waiting for the light to change. *chortle*) in their place, i have gone all "trading spaces", and started to make the room the funky haven that i so richly deserve.
pictures coming soon.
