Oh man, I think it would be so much fun to just build the place up from scratch - decoration and furniture-wise. I may be moving into a new apartment this summer.I'd talk excitedly about it, but I don't want to jinx myself.
Seriously what type of stuff are you looking for... I am in the process of moving back to the west coast from hawaii and just waiting now so i have a lot of time on my hands... I do paintings and photography....
If you're still interested in plastering your walls with art and such I'm sure I could lend a hand. If you have any specific ideas feel free to send your requests to tafkanx@gmail.com. Likewise, I have a couple of choice pieces from my life drawing class that came out real nice that I might be persuaded to part with. Just hit me up if you feel so inclined.
Hope you find some furniture soon.
