    I guess part of admitting you have a problem is sharing it...lol. After seeing Pickrknows beautiful display room I had to show that I at least try to keep a sense of organized clutter within my decor. My music corner turned out rather well. The Korg C 25 Digital Concert Grand circa 1992 is an on going project. Bought completely dead I'm in the process of replacing bad capacitors which has brought it back to life somewhat. Paintings hang where I can fit them and my computer room is wall to wall everything from art and glass to my Amiibo collection and a couple more keyboards. There's a spare bedroom I use for overflow (sorry no pic for that....shocking!) and my jewelry is stored in countless boxes and jewelry cases (see insert) in the computer room. It's a daunting task to display and organize so much. Coming up on my 1000th post I could easily double that with things I haven't posted. Estate sale time...well not yet. Plus there's no better half pressuring me either. :) -Mike-

      Mikelv, your room is pretty well organized ;-)
      So much treasures to discover in it!
      Thank you for letting us in !
    2. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      You're welcome Kyra.... I'd love to have Pick's spacious room and cabinets though ! I have enough to open my own store...lol
    3. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thanks Thomas :)...The Korg is MIDI'd to the little Casio. I still need to replace some caps to keep it running on it's own, but the MIDI section works fine now. The Korg will play for about 5 minutes on it's own and then quits as the bad caps discharge. The Casio is it's brain for now :)

      If you took down those (ahem) outdated curtains, you'd have more space to hang things! Just saying. (I have a somewhat pathological dislike of curtains & carpet...)

      Mike, I think it looks great, if you haven't enough room for stuff, gladly send to the "Ye Ole Horde" we'll find a spot to work with lol
    6. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Everything around here is outdated Celiene... including me :) Thanks Kerry it could look better if I had a truck to move some of the beautiful cabinets I always come across. I really need the extra storage and display space. Oddly I do know where everything is though albeit a bit dusty...lol.
    7. fortapache fortapache, 9 years ago
      It's fun to see how others display their treasures. Luckily there is always room for one more thing.
    8. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thanks Fort :).....isn't that the truth !

      I bought my small organ/piano in same year I believe or possibly 2 years earlier. Loved having a piano to tinkle on.
    10. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      I've always had one but these are much easier to move than an acoustic piano and the technology even back then makes them sound very good. I play just enough now so I don't lose my music reading ability :)
    11. Aimathena Aimathena, 9 years ago
      Hope you've been well
    12. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Hi Aim ! :).... so nice to see you're back. Are you staying a while or just visiting ?
    13. kivatinitz kivatinitz, 9 years ago
      YOU MUST OPEN YOUR OWN STORE, THANKS FOR SHARING
    14. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      lol...Thanks Kivatinitz ...I do have more than enough inventory. :)
    15. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thanks Lisa for the nice comment .... it is a tad out of hand but with the proper shelves and cabinets I could get it organized and displayed the way I really want it. That's the goal for the new year ahead ! -Mike- :)
    16. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Well except for the dog and cats because some things eventually wind up in one of their favorite napping spots...lol
    17. SEAN68 SEAN68, 9 years ago
      VERY NICE !! MAN YOU HAVE LOTS OF STUFF!!
    18. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thanks Sean.....yes an embarrassment of riches that's for sure ! :)
    19. jscott0363 jscott0363, 9 years ago
      Mike,
      You've got it looking pretty awesome there!!!!
      Scott
    20. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thanks so much Scott....I try :)
    21. pickrknows pickrknows, 9 years ago
      The room looks great Mike, love the artwork and the way everything has found it's place!!
    22. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thank you Pickr....but knock one thing out of place and it would cause a "domino effect"...lol :)
    23. AnnaB AnnaB, 9 years ago
      It gives me hope that one day, hopefully this century, my room- aka collector cave- will be finished so i can actually see what i have, too..lol
    24. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thanks for the "love" AnnaB...and here's to an organized New Year ! :)
    25. freiheit freiheit, 9 years ago
      I have passed on many nice pieces of porcelain recently because I am running out of space. My husband doesn't mind as long as the cabinet doors close. I have to buy new cabinets LOL
      Have I mentioned yet that I really like your walls?!
      Gudrun
    26. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thanks so much Freiheit :)...yes I'm sorely in need of even one cabinet. My sister got the dining room set with the cabinet when we moved. Formal dining rooms are kind of passe' now. So there's great finds in cabinets as a result but not having a way to bring them home is the biggest problem. No one has a truck these days unless you're in construction or a farmer....lol. -Mike-
    27. LuluX LuluX, 9 years ago
      WOW .. :) I love not knowing where to look and what I will see next !
    28. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thanks LuluX :)..it's kind of like a booth at a flea market in here with little oasis of organization.
    29. Trey Trey, 9 years ago
      Nice placement of treasures, thanks for sharing :)
    30. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thanks Trey :)
    31. utterlyunique utterlyunique, 9 years ago
      It's like Narnia!! I'd love to get lost in there! SO awesome!!
    32. mikelv85 mikelv85, 9 years ago
      Thanks utterlyunique......although it's probably time to rent a storage unit and do some Spring cleaning....lol.
