Pipstar & Renbc: The track lighting is from home depot. We bought it a few years ago. I don't know if it is still in stock.

Lori de Wet: The clogs are from Camper.

Mshannonhnv: Yes. The Brass Armadillo west off Cactus on I-17. Glendale has a lot of second-hand. Goodwill, St. Vincent de Paul's...the usual. Oh, 7th Ave north of Indian School.

The fabric is used. So sorry about the misleading origins. I found the fabric at Zinnia's on Melrose here in Phoenix. I didn't buy all the panels so they may have some left. See the link above for more information on the fabric.

The painting next to the bed is a gouache/collage on paper. It is 24" x 14" and titled "Sleepwalker" from a show at Modified Arts in downtown Phoenix, 2011, called "Not a cloud in the sky: A meditation on the life ideal" by Melinda Bergman

Please don't worry about the little guitar. It is very dry here and we have a very powerful venting system. It is there for moments of inspiration. Claes is a luthier and plays the guitar so it is used periodically but not that much. We think the amber finish is nice with the grey tile.
For the viewer who wondered about the AC. We have both AC and evaporative cooling plus plenty of fans in the ceiling. We also close off windows on the west side in summer with styrofoam that I stripe so they play like curtains.
Sorry we don't have views of the yard. Maybe in future by popular demand. Thank you for your comments!
Cheers, Mel
