Redoing my room. Again.

[Mouse]

Listen, I have nothing else to decorate, okay?

Anyways, last time I had an animal theme, now I'm doing asian stuff. My friend Max helped me pick some stuff that she thinks would fit in the theme, but I need like cheap, effective ideas. I'm having a yardsale thingie this weekend to get some money but it won't be a lot so I have to not pick expensive things. xD. The only expensive thing I'm considering is a little fountain, yes? But I'd have to save up a bit for it.

- Pandas.
- Tigers.
- Paper lanterns.
- Origami things.
- A mini zen garden.
- Dragons.
- Bonzai tree(s).

Anyone have anything to add?

Ooooh, I really liked some of the stuff on there. I think my biggest problem will be having the room for a lot of the stuff I want as my room is pretty tiny. ><;.

- A mini zen garden.

like with sand? pets might mess it up thinking it's a litter box

Here's something cheap:  find four or five long, straightish branches.  Put them in a tall vase or umbrella stand or similar.  Buy a few stems of fake flowers, some with many small blossoms (Pink, white or yellow.)  Pull the blossoms off their stems and glue them randomly to the branches.   Stick the whole thing in a corner.

.............maybe miniature pagoda's and Buddha statues, some Asian style prints of birds and trees and ladies with kimono's and umbrellas and those needle like things in their head ...take a pic and post it when its all done .......

what about 3 white walls and a red wall

Then you could get some nice red sheets for the bed with some black patterns

A nice red paper lantern light would be nice too, and maybe get a japanese futon bed

Then maybe add one or two little green plants

So, I bought the most adorable little bonsai thingie today for 7 dollars. I'm soaking the seeds right now, then I gotta stick'em in the 'fridge for a week, and then I plant them in this little black pot, but I'm excited 'cause it's so tiny and cute. xD. Most likely, I will name it.

All sounds find Squeakie-Boi.

But don't get a futon. Hideous things. Japanese torture devices. Believe Matty the Damned when he tells you that there is more give in god's good green earth than there is in a bloody futon.
