Home Above Home

I figured it was about time I did another scene with the guys in mind, although the occupant of
this abode is not as tidy or organized as the the owner of the last male area I decorated. This guy is
living above his parents in their attic. He calls it his “apartment,” but we all know what it is: home
to a guy who is pretending he has left home but, in reality, his mother still cooks for him and does

his laundry.

I had fun with this, and the best part is that I didn’t have to Colour coordinate or stick to any style
of decor. This space is his but also has a few of his parents’ storage items stacked in the corner. He
ignores them.

I also had fun with a few Halloween items scattered about. This guy is ready for the spooky season
and is already organizing a party with a few mates and friends, as well. Lucky for him, his parents
are away that weekend, so no one will complain about the noise!

I started, as always, with the bigger items. That is the easiest way to get started. I had originally

pictured all this in a doomsday prepper bunker, but then I decided the premise of the parent’s attic
was just too good not to go with.
