Title: My Room...
Post by: Hawklore on October 23, 2005, 06:36:14 PM
Ok ladies and roughman..

I have decided on what I want to do with my room.

Bamboo Forest,

I want my room to feel like you are emersed in a large bamboo forest clearing.

Suggestions?

I've seen the bambo bricks, but it'd cost over $1k just to line the walls.

I've also seen the bamboo forest mural.

What I need to figure out is,

A: Do I put the bamboo mural and do bamboo trees around it repeating as necesarry?

B:How do I create the illusion of a forest ceiling? Leaves etc.

C:What do I use for molding? OR do I use molding at all?

It's gonna turn basicly into a meditation/sleeping/holodeck room.

Now I just need to find a hot asian chick that can hide in my closet and come out when I'm in robe and sword, and she can please the Samuri lost in a forest.

:lol

What's wrong with posters of cars, boobies and sports?  If you want to be in a bamboo forest and have a leopard linen bed with one of those drape thingys...get a girl that has one and sleep there.

CBS isn't a network...it's Cars, Boobies and Sports.

I'm def. gonna have bamboo planted in the corners atleast..

Hell, maybe I'll dig through the concrete to the dirt and voila!

:aok


Seriously guys, it's not just for me, it's for the resale value of the house.

After years of dealing with interior decorators I have come to the conclusion that 99% of then go to school for it to learn how to implement bad taste.

The largest problem most of them have is they learn all these really cool ideas and techniques and try to use ALL of them in the same room. LOL

Wife....I like the house
Husband....No friekin way
Wife....but really I want it
Husband.....If we buy that house first thing I do is rip that crap out
Wife......what If I be "Nice"?
Husband....NO...not even for that
Wife.....Really? you feel that strong?
Husband......Im not going to even talk about it anymore
Wife......Ok baby we can take the crap down...its sissy anyhow
Husband.......And the Pink bathroom WILL be repainted!!!!
Husband....I'll make the offer for 10K less for all the trouble
Wife....Ok whatever you want....Now can I be "Nice"
Husband......yeah, I guess....make me a sandwich first tho. :aok
Wife....Ok, you want a beer with that? :)


See, you really should go a different direction. This scenario will play out when you re-sell. All that work with bamboo and you still have a pink bathroom. You should consider a female decorator next time. The gay ones are just too far out in left field.

There is a bamboo that grows three feet a day, or something like that. Cross that bamboo with an oak tree and have an oak tree that is full grown in a year.

w00t!

If you are going to mess with nature then why not cross that bamboo with weed or a beer plant. 3 feet tall weed or beer in a day!!

There's a room where I can go
and tell my secrets to
In my room
In my room

In this world I lock out
all my worries and my fears
In my room
In my room

Do my dreaming and my scheming lie awake and pray
Do my crying and my sighing laugh at yesterday

Now it's dark and I'm alone
but I won't be afraid
In my room

I believe bamboo stay idle for a bunch of years.  I.E. No growth at all.  Then suddenly they go up several feet per day.

Some species of bamboo can be grown almost anywhere.  A man in my northern Ohio neighborhood has a small bamboo forest in his backyard.  

Here’s my ceiling:

Now that's how bamboo decorating is done!

Don't forget to add aircraft ID silhouette posters, a captured Japanese flag, and a beat-up A2 with a CBI patch on the sleeve draped casually over the mosquito netting.

Don't forget to include a live Panda bear for the "When Animals Attack" dramatizations.
