Mirrors hanging on ribbons -- too Pottery Barn, circa 2004?
A neat use of Early American stencils -- ferns in two neutral shades of green around the bathtub. I really liked this effect, although I'd do weeping willows.

I love elephants -- who better to bathe along with me? Either of these posters could go well above the soaking tub.

The previous owners have a large TV mounted on one wall in the living room. I obviously will not be replacing this with my own TV, but am considering other things that might go in its place.
A giant clock?
A wall-mounted stereo?
Or a nice art deco poster?

Now this could enliven a dark dining room set!
This one is neat too, but may not have enough color.

I love the nazar boncugu in Turkish restaurants. I think the proper-sized one would fit right in to the "totem pole" I'm planning for the pillar in my kitchen (currently slated to contain a peacock feather, a Mayan greenstone mask from El Salvador, and a Pennsylvania Dutch hex sign).
Update: I got one! Not sure if I'll keep the surah part on top, but the eye is awesome :)

I've gone too long without my own kitchen rooster.

Does a second-story apartment in a city not known for its foul weather need a welcome mat? Probably not...although this one entranced me.
