My Disney Haunted Mansion Themed Bedroom

FullSizeRender.jpg

Okay I know this makes me an absolute weirdo, but everyone knew I was an absolute weirdo already, right? 

So when we returned from Disneyland Paris in October I took buying Haunted Mansion nicknacks one step further and started turning my bedroom into a whole mini Mansion.  

This included Haunted Mansionesque wallpaper curtains, cushions, and lots of a purple and black everything else. I also have filled the room with plants and hung some plants from the ceiling.

My brother surprised me with these for Christmas, framed copies of the stretching portraits from the entrance of the ride, which are absolutely perfect!

Below them I have framed the duelling ghosts from the ballroom scene. I had these framed to my brother for Christmas too, so it was funny, we had both bought each other Haunted Mansion prints!

I also have a stretch of this gorgeous Haunted Mansion shag fabric but I’m not sure what to do with it yet. I might make a scarf or bag with it. I would like to make something to wear with it.

I would like to get some brighter photos of my room too. Any other Haunted Mansion nuts out there? Get in touch! @rudedoodle

My Son Asked Santa For Kitsch For Christmas... I’ve Never Been So Proud. Knitted Toilet Roll Poodle Covers- Where To Buy Them In 2018 Britain.

Specsavers had a quirky little ad campaign for Christmas 2017 that ran along the lines of showing a tacky present, like a gnome, a toilet shaped mug, flamingo slippers, or a knitted poodle toilet roll cover like the ad above, and the tag line, ‘Get something more useful this Christmas, like a free eye test’.

Well Smix spotted the ad with the baby blue knitted Poodle in the Bloomfield Specsavers’ store window, and immediately added it to his Santa list. ​

As the Santa list read 1. laptop, 2. Candyfloss Making Machine and 3. Blue Toilet Roll Poodle, you can see it was quite a high priority item for the elves to find this unusual and rare item, plucked straight from the 1970s by Specsavers’ ad folks, so Santa’s elves must have broken into a cold sweat when Smix’s list dropped down the chimney with that request.​

Luckily for the elves, they found Gifts Galore 1962! Who for £3.99 plus £3.00 shipping can make a Toilet Roll holding Poodle in many colours, the colour of your choice in very short notice (turn around for Smix’s Poodle was a couple of days) 

Come Christmas morning Smix was delighted! The second generation of Kitsch was passed down.  

 

Let me know if you order a poodle of your own!
