My room, circa 1970

Newer Older

My bedroom decor was very representative of who I was (am). My grandmother made that quilt by hand. A friend painted the John Lennon portrait in art class. That's my favorite dress (I wore it a LOT). On the nightstand is a boxed set of Tolkien's Lord of the Rings trilogy in paperback. There's a stick of patchouli incense burning, and a miniature Chinese lantern. And I'm probably reading Siddhartha. Taken in 1970 with a Kodak Instamatic.

Update: A friend scrutinized the book, and says it's actually "Do It!" by Jerry Rubin, required reading for an idealistic young flower child.

    beetorstevie : Yes, quite a few - although many of them are in a box on my closet shelf. Some of the books are on the bookcase shelves in my living room. My bedroom now is much less "decorated," as I'm a follower of feng shui principles.
