If you walked into my house you'd probably never guess I was a framer. there's some nice pieces about sure, but no medals, nothing 3-D, no needlework, nothing 'creative' and only two originals and I painted one of those!
12 pieces between the living room, dining room and hall and a few nothing pictures in the bedrooms and bathroom.
I am ex forces, my medals and a shedful of photos are in drawers, the loft - the very places I encourage my customers to get them out of and on to their walls. Maybe it's because I know I can do it whenever I want, maybe it's because I value them too much to frame!!!!! Maybe it's because I don't like bringing my work home! The largest wall in my house is bare! (V NIce wallpaper though!)
How about you?
What's on your walls at home?
my house is full of pictures - mostl are originals -that will give framing norah something to talk about as I am always defending limited editions. My wife has a habit of demanding that i frame stuff that she likes. I have four children - lots of photos. I sell country sports prints - lots of dogs etc - I dont have any at home - I suppose the simple reason for that is the ones i like always sell.

Every wall - totally covered.
Mementos, original art, family photos, you name it. No particular order, except that one wall is reserved for the family ancestors.
(The only limited editions are those with a special meaning. We would still have them if they were open editions.)
Means never having to decorate as none of the walls can be seen anyway.

You realise, George, that you are now going to be inundated with photographs of ex-wives, mothers in law, etc. to be hung in your spare bedroom.
