So what do you have hanging over your bed?
nothing. earthquake country. 'nuff said.

Nevermind. I'm probably just doomed. DOOMED!

I also have a window over my bed, which is opposite the door. Bad feng and shui. I'm thinking about moving things around just for kicks, but I don't think I want ANYTHING on the wall above my headboard. I'm in CA too and always heard that was a bad idea, plus I'm not a fan of "stuff on the wall". I like a a simple, clean look.

A little shelf with my bottle of Viagra.

I grew up mostly in Southern California. I would be uncomfortable with anything above my bed because of earthquakes. Even though I don't expect an earthquake where I live now, it would make me uncomfortable.

Well, my apartment is kinda small, so the Window seat ( which is, very deep) is transformed into a window BED. So it leaves me with the options of small things XD. I hang three little clocks. One for hong kong time, one for time in France and one for the time in new York city.

Interesting question. I have a large colorful watercolor that my mother gave me after I repeatedly expressed admiration for it. I was surprised when she offered it to me. But I took it home and later had it very nicely framed. The watercolor is unusual for the amount of color in it and those blues and greens dictate the color scheme of the bedroom.

It is a very handsome picture. I'm very fond of it.
