Tweaks, Large and Small

The big project this past week was the wall painting for the living room, the Spaceship Earth-inspired zone.  I have been working on this 'refurb' for weeks now, starting with the removal of 30+ year old wallpaper that usually came off in large sheets, but often would flake off in dime-size pieces.  Ugh.

The wallpaper wasn't offensive, but it was very, very neutral, which isn't my thing at all.  I lived with it for several years until I finally got around to getting it down.  The room is also fairly big, so between the removal, the wall repair and prep, and the actual painting, it took ages.  But it's worth it, because now we have SSE-Legs Blue up in here.

Close enough, anyway.

That's not all I'm going to do, obviously, but it's a big step.  The little table is in here now, and I have some ideas for wall art and textiles to add to the vibe.

I also made a quick little thing--art pens, index cards, a little glue and an old beater cheapie frame-- to inject some World of Motion-ness into the dining room:
