Here we go...

I've taken some photos.

Promise not to laugh!!!

This is the view from my front door. I never realised that the first thing you see is the ironing board leaning against the fridge.

I bought the lampshade because it reminded me of a brothel. I was going for a brothel look for the hall.

I like the colour scheme

Here's my coconut monkey and R2-D2. They sit on top of the electricity meter box in the hall.

The metallic thing screwed to the wall is a magazine rack in an alcove.

I think that orange is good for entrances because it's very welcoming.

It works well with the cream

U need to place a plant in front of the kitchen door somewhere. You're letting Chi escape your house by rushing down the hall and into the kitchen and through the sink.

Also, make sure the walls in the hall are well adorned and full of life--it's important that the chi flow into the other rooms there. It looks like it's just rushing out of the house/aprtement.

I never realised how crinkly that print is in that frame until I saw these photos. I think I'll take it out and iron it. I have no idea why it's crinkled up.

The front door looks a little weird on this picture, but I can assure you that is all one colour. The meter-box cupboard looks all blotchy too. Maybe the flash was too bright. I dunno.

I'm going to put a curtain rail over the door to keep in heat and block out noise and stuff. I've got the rail and brackets but not the curtain yet.

Oh my God. Really? Wouldn't a plant get in the way, or is that the point?

That crinkly picture is really annoying me now. The Beatles thing is a tin-plated clock.

This is my bedroom. I thought that green would be calming but it makes me feel like I'm in a hospital ward - especially with the steel-frame bed.

I bought that lampshade from Ebay. I wanted some retro lighting. The white-rag thing on the bed is my dressing gown. I would have moved my washing, but there was nowhere to move it to really.

on the left hand side of your kitchen door as your looking in. What's to the left? Place a plant there. It will help to trap some of the Chi and prevent it from escaping.

Also, increase the color red in your kitchen. You have alot of white (from the fridge) and it is a metal element. THe area of your kitchen appears to be your fame area. Fame requires fire. Red represents fire, and helps to diminish the metal you have there (metal has no FengShui benefit in the fame area).

You need to position the bed in the left corner of the room diagnol. The way the bed is positioned right now, the chi is cutting you through your stomach and will cuase stomach problems and frequent health problems like (common colds, etc).

I hated this wallpaper as soon as I put it up.

I was sort of looking at the square thing on the floor here. It's a pretend fishtank which lights up with plastic fish in it. I plug it in now and again, but I really do need to get around to fixing it to the wall. The bedroom looks sort of bare but there's a cupboard to the right of these drawers.

That's my dustbuster and umbrella too.

God, I need more pictures on the walls.

Wouldn't diagonal be a little impractical?

Nobody said Feng SHui was practical.

This is a fibre-optic rose bush. I did try to take a photo of it in the dark but it didn't come out right.

It's cool. It changes colours and stuff. I know it looks tacky but I don't care. It helps me to sleep sometimes.

Oh dear - look at the junk under the bed. The beige stripe with paint-splodges on it (to the right of the photo) is the inside of the door. The door's fully open, so its like the edge of it.

The dark shape in the corner of the room is a swilvel chair with a holdall bag on top. There's actually a stereo in the opposite corner of the room, near the bedhead (but you can't see it).

Back in the hallway.

I rescued this plaster-relief from a skip in Blackpool. I'm unsure if it's supposed to be anybody famous.

The kitchen. I hate that yellow bin. I need a silver one in there.

I originally painted the kitchen the same colour but with metallic paint. I used four pots of paint at like £25 a can. Then the local council came and insisted that I should have a new water boiler fitted for free. There was plaster and dust and holes in the wall everywhere. I cried for about a week after they had left.

When I repainted it, I just got some matt emulsion mixed to the same colour. It's sort of ink-blue. The silver door is the boiler cupboard.

I never ever ever open my blinds. Ever.

The bathroom sink. The white thing on the right is the shower cubicle. It's made out of wood and tiled on the inside. It looks like something out of the Bates Motel.

This mobile hangs from the bathroom ceiling. I bought it because it sort of reminded me of the Alphabet St. video.

There's a weird yellow cast on the wall in this picture, but it's all sky blue. Ignore the awful net curtain. It's only there until I can afford another blind.

Oh, it can't be worse than mine! My flat looks like a hovel in these pictures!

My throne.

No, I can't get rid of that gunk at the edge of the shower cubicle. It's like concrete or glue or something.

The sealant around the shower basin is really discoloured too. I've tried everything on it but it's sort of ingrained.
