I have a blast photographing home tour posts, and last year I had the camera turned around on my own home for my friend Mattie's blog. (Can you believe I kept it clean long enough to get through every room?) Some of my favorite shots of my place are below, and you can view the entire post at Somethings.

I made a Dia De Los Muertos display in our window for Halloween, and we decided to keep Skelly (a Hometapes family heirloom) in the window all year round.
My roommate bought me this crawfish alphabet print while running around junk shops in New Orleans with the prop department for "Beasts of the Southern Wild." The silver stars are leftover decorations from Julian Koster's Music Tapes caroling tour a few years ago.
Clear glass votive holders make handy pots for tiny succulents,
especially if you catch them 50% off at Hobby Lobby. I've had some of
these plants almost four years. The long skinny crystal is selenite, a
gift from a friend to protect our home.
I mixed my own custom colored chalkboard paint
for the kitchen. My dad and I went to the range with these vintage
targets (unintentionally vintage... he keeps things a longgg time :) and
I'll be framing them soon. Something about them reminds me of an old
Bond movie.
Antlers from dad // boots stamped with Bicentenial jangles // map of the
heavens from an old National Georgraphic // gold foam ceiling tiles
(super cheap on eBay) // hooks of festival badges from work trips past.
Jordache jeans pillowcase // sheepskin blanket // the record corner.
Painting from Lauren Gregg // my late dog's collar made by Jonny Corndawg // salt crystal lamps // smudge stick // Wild Unknown Tarot. Beautiful deck. // Necklace from one of my favorite clients, Page from Dream Boat / Hope for Agoldensummer. She could it at a powwow in Portland. // My favorite candles right now are earthy scents, and clean burning Mrs. Meyer's.
// Linoleum floor cloth DIY //
// This sofa has been with me since college, which is part of why I keep
it hidden under blankets. Our living room is the touring band hotel. //
// Security system next to the front door //
// Bathroom door is wallpapered with 70s childrens' encyclopedia pages.
It's held up pretty well over the years with just double stick tape! //
// I love Jose Pulido's prints. //

Later on I realized something was missing from these home tour photos...
This little lady! Willie Mae!
And this roommate wrestling with her!
Now that's more like home!
