Feb. 12th, 2008 10:45 pmI finally put up my collage-posters, and my room has magically become home.
I started them my senior year of highschool, mostly by accident; we'd moved so many times that we were just keeping all our "real" stuff in storage, including my posters, so I'd cut pictures out of magazines and stick them on the wall of wherever I was sleeping at the moment, then glue pictures to pictures, then put up stickers and postcards and ticketstubs. I now have 12 posterboards, a little worse for wear for having been dragged all over the country, and they cover most of my available wallspace. I'll take a picture if I can ever figure out how to get the pictures off my camera.
Anyways. My altar and my collage-posters and my books: elements of home. I can't really believe how much more settled-in it's making me feel.
