  • Corrie - is that the dwellstudio bedding from target? also i love that side table! erinpearce on 2008-07-07 20: 38: 30 view erinpearce's oh oh - i was eyeing the same bedding from target just last night. your room is very lovely and peaceful and reminds me of my grandmother's powder room and her knack for displaying beautiful things in a whimsical rather than ostentatious manner. i smiled. hiroshima on 2008-07-07 21: 04: 03 view hiroshima's while the "display of death" is obviously not going to sit well with everyone, i (as a vegetarian who hasn't eaten animal flesh in over 8 years) don't mind it a bit. leather furniture rarely comes into such censure, and i believe that displaying an animal in its entirety rather than merely the treated, processed, and dyed skin of a cow, one avoids the cognitive disjunct caused by leather (which is, of course, sturdy and useful, but by no means a necessity in anyone's home). what i mean is that leather allows us to forget about the animal, while taxidermy memorializes the animal. it's easy to forget when looking at red cubes of meat at the supermarket or at a lovely piece of furniture that these things used to be alive; taxidermy forces us to confront the source of the material.
