MY STAR WARS PROP ROOM AS OF AUG 2014
Slideshow
Original post:
My Prop Room used to also be my home office. See my previous show-off post: My Star Wars Prop Room/ Home Office
However, because of the location in the house myself and the kids tended not to utilize that computer and opted to utilize my laptop. So the living room, which hardly was used became a sitting room/study.
Now my room is a strictly a Star Wars Room. The problem is that I am very particular about how my items are displayed. The cabinets I have were okay for what I used to have years ago, but now they are very restrictive. I want to replace them with 3 or 4 Ikea glass cabinets. I hate glass cabinets but it is really the only way to go to show off the props.
And the desk... sigh... if a desk is not being used as a desk, then it should not be there. I feel very white trash using a desk as a shelf unit. However, my desire to fund prop projects takes up the funds for redecorating. Plus I would love to replace the blinds with plantation shutters.
A couple of years ago, I became very depressed with my prop collection. It seemed very stale and most of what I had bought in recent years tended to be other Star Wars collectibles, not prop related, So I started refocusing my efforts. Got rid of props and collectibles that I had no desire to keep and reinvest the funds into new props. You will note that I am struggling to make room. I had to remove the cushion for bench seating an utilize it as shelf space.
