Idea of things to fill my apartment with

Just moved into a new place and sans a few tvs and basic furniture its empty. The walls just are white and its bothering the crap outta me.

So any ideas of things to get to hang that arent the usual painting or clock? Links would be appreciated

Its an apartment,so can't paint the walls. Have a few posters but was looking for random odds and ends like signs and things of that nature.

Although once I get a day off during the week I'm going to make two wheel end tables

One of the things I bought for my previous apartment was a poster from a race at Watkins Glen in the late 1970's. I also bought a few prints from an artist that does motorsports related artwork.

Riht now on eBay there are some 1980 Monaco Grand Prix posters for under $15 and reproductions of other vintage racing posters for under $10.

Reproduction posters for motorsports events and movies, misc old street signs, beer mirrors, neon signs, etc.

Saw 4 working beer neon signs on craigslist in the York/Harrisburg Pa area for $350 total which is cheap.

Dead Babies... don't smell as bad as they're smaller.


Also if you're into music look into some posters, flyers from shows and other promo material, even some vintage some looks really cool. Just Google/eBay it, look up some bands you like so it's just taking up space... I will second neon signs, beer signs, or even if you can find some old oil company or gas station signs... or even vintage reproduction car manufacturer signs would look sweet.

Don't forget hot chicks!

A nice entertainment center can take up a solid section of a wall.
