It feels like love, it feels like you I have everything that I need You have stolen my heart Love is waiting Musing lazily on love, pondering you I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, Sir, because I'm not myself you see

Collecting Guitars and Displaying Them

Posted by Riz in Martha Moments, Trackbacks  

DAY THREE. I think guitars are not only photogenic, they’re also awesome decorative elements wherever you place them. Truckloads of photos, coming up! :)

3/30 | Guitars are Awesome3/30. Collecting Guitars and Displaying Them

[The guitars in this photo: Acoustic guitar -- the only one that is actually making any sound -- from Rico; the red toy guitar made in Cebu, from Ivy; and the two guitar magnets -- the bigger one I got from the Detroit Metro Airport during a stopover from last year's US trip, and the smaller one from my brother who got it also from Cebu.]

I have not played my guitar in a long time (and have stopped being guitarchic, too, if you haven’t noticed, lol) but I’m still fond of anything guitar, mostly because I like taking photos of them and seeing them displayed. And okay, playing them once in a while.

Collect and display, there goes a rule to live by. If you have guitars in your house, whether you’re using them or not, take them out of your closets and display them.

Let’s try visual now, shall we? Here are two ways to use guitars as decorative elements.

(1) Hang them on the wall:

Oh hai, I’m displaying my guitar, too. ;)

Poppytalk had their own series on using guitars as decoration. Check it out!

Awesome, eh.
