This isn’t exactly faux bois in the background; rather it is faux faux bois–that is, the real thing. vrai bois?
So, I am currently looking for a way to cover up this giant, blank, sterile-looking wall in my living room. It is terrifyingly bland. And the current coat of white paint has this blinding, reflective sheen. Gross. Come now, who wants shiny white walls? My place is a work in progress (which you probably may have gathered by now). I am thinking of pasting up a mural of some sort. Something nature-like with a nice pattern to it. But someone tell me, are those things easily removable if I should suddenly choose to finally up and move down the L train to Jefferson where the neighborhood looks so very…hm…neighborly? I was thinking of covering the wall with a layer of some faux bois patterned paper, or better yet, I could salvage pieces of abandoned wood and build a faux wall. Inconceivable you say? Not really. I’ve been busting out all the lezbionics lately — what, with building shit and adding to my new, burgeoning tool collection (including my very own power drill[!]). Thanks, thanks.
Last thought of the night, facebook does some weird color processing to any image I upload. Tell me, what the hell is that?
Currently listening to: Beach House – Teen Dream (2010)

go with the wall installation – removing a fixed piece is always a nightmare and if you move, you’ve got a non-committed article to take with you. and you get experience points for working with power tools as a bonus.
