Those are sweet

YES! More Ideas.. and more money to spend!! WOO HOO.. keep em comin guys...

Now, I have about a 14' vaulted ceiling on one side... so there is ALOT of room to put stuff on walls... Any aditional Ideas?

I have the huge banner idea.. that would be great on it... how about placement of items... what would go great at the top of the 14'...?

Here is pic of a bit of my room (excuse mess, trying to get it ready for the big overhaul)


... and yes that is my cat that wondered into my picture just as I was taking a low light/no flash pic... hence the blurry cat but!

If you REALLY wanna pimp your office, go find a front end with working headlights and wedge the front end up into the crevase where the wall meets the ceiling, do some low voltage wiring and BAM!.........awesome track lighting. Good Luck.

That might be a bit extreme... paint, pictures, memorabilia, trinkets, models, etc... is what I'm after, but in a cool way

TRAYC6) and is in love with everything Corvette and an all around great person. She attends most of the NCM functions and turns the event items into decorations for her office space at home.

You also might want to PM forum member Zilla and inquire about his awesome wood carvings.

Check out the Mid America site, they have many wall-related murals, borders, etc., that's where I got some of my office stuff.
Link: click here

I also created a custom mural for my garage, see my sig., if interested in having one done of your own car let me know.
