I didn't mean to! We were just on our way to go and look at wallpaper (exciting I know) and there was a little gallery and I suggested we have a look and...

...a handshake and a discount later, I LOVE it.

AIBU to ask what you have on your walls?

Mostly old (pre 60s) black and white family photos, but I have several framed Matt Adrian (aka the Mincing Mockingbird) postcards. I'm planning to buy an original this year.

We have a lot of original artworks on our walls, because we have a small online business. (So the paintings and prints come and go.)

My dad painted this a couple of months before he passed away!
I love it! And it says so much about my dad...
I laugh to myself as he'd been painting for a couple of years and to be honest I was a bit "meh" about his stuff... But the last couple of paintings he finished I really liked!
Typical! He left us just as he was starting to get quite good! AngrySmile
