Pagurus Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Thanks for showing us your lovely new room. It's so neat and uncluttered. I wonder if it will stay that way. In my house it surely would not. I keep squeezing more and more onto my shelves and they look awful at the moment. I'll try to use your room as an inspiration to get a little more organized. It's not one of my strengths, though. Congratulations on your new space! Start the day with a smile and get it over with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m trying my best to keep it neat, but I still have 3.75 years left here so who knows. There are still a lot of pieces that need to be displayed, and of course there are many more I want! 8 minutes ago, Coco said: Hi, Nice Candace ! A relaxing and pleasant place. Coco Thank you!

Masp Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 @thelivingdead531 love the fossils and wonderful display! Excellent job! I also believe that a fossil collection should be accompanied by a good book collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You complain about the lack of space, think how that hermit crab in your avatar feels!!! Yeah, I'm always complaining about something. My mother always told me to stop the kvetching. I had even less space for fossils in the little apartment I lived in when I drew this. We were living over a grocery store, with a newborn son, a crib and a mattress on the floor. It was time to load up the pickup (Albatross, or Albie, for short) and hit the road. 1 Start the day with a smile and get it over with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelivingdead531 Posted November 8, 2020 Author Share Posted November 8, 2020 Well, it only took nearly a year to hang five pictures but I finally did it today! I am over the moon with how great these prints from @Bobby Rico look in my fossil room! Now if I can get rid of the clutter, which will probably take me another year, I'll be set until we move again! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilNerd Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Looks great! Bobby’s artwork really finishes off your fossil room. I like @Kane’s quote too.

Bobby Rico Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Thanks all I think it is an honour to be featured in your fossils room. They look very nicely framed too. As an artist it is j nice to see your work is appreciated . Good cabinet as well. Stay safe all Bobby 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minnbuckeye Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 When in Wyoming, why go to Tate Museum when you have Candace's home??? Very nice collection, well combined with other features from your life! I assume you own a dachshund??? One other question, how is the book "Dark Matter and Dinosaurs"? I love astrophysics and the title intrigues me. Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love collecting original artwork along with fossils. There is something satisfying about supporting artists. 3 hours ago, minnbuckeye said: When in Wyoming, why go to Tate Museum when you have Candace's home???

I’ve had dachshunds all my life, sadly our last one passed away in 2013 and since our American Bulldog doesn’t take well to other dogs now we’re waiting for a bit to get another dachshund. As for the book, I bought it and then sidetracked myself with various projects and forgot about it, so I haven’t read it yet. I should probably do that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
