Curtains, I tellya! Curtains!!!

[msfledermaus]

Yesterday I put up some curtains in the front room of the new Maushaus--now my bedroom. They're these lovely plummy red velvet cut-out curtains with amber finials on the curtain rods. I wanted something a bit Victorian-looking to match the house, and they look really great. I can't stop peeking at them from around the corner of the living room while I'm typing...

*peek*

The house is really coming along. Slow but steady.

I was cat-wrangling for Ben and Peaty this morning, too...Saturn came home from his all-night wanderjahr, and I managed to not let anybody escape when I locked up this morning. Woot! They're determined little Houdinis, too, might I add. I have reason to be proud.

But this morning work is staring me in the face. No Wanna. But I reckon I'll manage like I usually do...

Why sure!

Since I'm not in that neck of the woods, I'll have to use my psychic powers....

Hmmmm...

Position all chairs by the windows so you and any cats can look out and make chattery noises at the squirrels...even if it means you have to set thiem on top of other furniture. Avoid painting your walls hot-orange unless you're my downstairs neighbor--for some reason it works for him, but he's also got a Divine clock on his wall--go fig. A bright-pink and black feather boa draped on your couch will add mystery and initiate conversation. Do not put jam in your dvd player. Add many, many black and red pillows so you can slump on the floor and write endless bad poetry about the evils of squirrels...

Hehehe, I should do my own book on feng-shui:)

Leona LOVES the windows, but the boa would be toast in about 5 minutes.

Still, I'd buy your feng-shui book!

Hmmm...I wonder if they make cat-indestructable feather boas...i picture a boa in a block of Lucite. *chuckles*

I think I should do a feng-shui post, just to share my, er, wisdom...

I've always wanted a boa...

She's busy discovering new places and knocking down 'stuff' she never could get at in the old place. We'll get it straight. I think your place sounds a lot more interesting, colorwise, than mine is (ecru all the way through, except the avocado bathroom) but mine was painted by the landcouple.

Yeah, kitties do that, huh? I just take care of other people's cats from time to time since a kitty would have the *best* time ever trashing all my stuff. I do like them, though.

As for colors on the walls...Hmmm...Well, I reckon you could cover wide patches of wall with big Bela Lugosi Posters:) Or I remember some trick with using spray starch as an adhesive for cloth on the wall...i think if it gets steamed like wallpaper it comes right off, if you wanted a color change without painting.
