Our ‘redone’ bedroom

New bedspread + pillows for the 31-year old bed frame. (Mattress is new.)
One new bed-side table.
Two new lamps.
One very-old clock radio.¹
Painted in “Mitchell Gold” — see http://365project.org/rhoing/365/2014-02-16
Decorated with our new favored medium for photographs: “canvases.” (Besides this “triptych,” there are four other canvases!)

[If you missed it, yeah, there’s a land-line phone here!]

The “triptych” image was a 365 post — http://365project.org/rhoing/365/2012-05-23 — of San Antonio’s River Walk. I’m still learning strategies for choosing the edge options and I don’t really like everything about this image, but it gets the point across. (Hmm — the bluish patch at the bottom of the third canvas *is* in the original image! It’s reflected sky. But I still wish I had Frank’s perspective-straightening expertise and tools!)

¹ For power-outage protection, my alarm clock is a battery operated clock that’s across the room. Why? “Snooze” is too tempting! If it’s across the room, I have to get out of bed to shut it off. Then I’m “up”!

@sarahview Thanks, Sarah! We like it! The other 4 canvases are from favorite places/trips: Paris (the Louvre at night); Hilton Head, SC; Tuscany (San Gimignano); and a 365 post from our first over-night train trip, http://365project.org/rhoing/365/2011-05-23.

Nothing like a nice new touch, and it looks very sharp.

So nice that you have your own photos hanging Thom, it looks fantastic.

Beautiful photo to choose and how cool that you made it a triptych. I get funny about my canvases, too, not always pleased.
