I finally got Mr17 to sit down and look at all your great ideas. He really loved
this mural that Decorheaven sent. His only concern is the desk will cover all of the bottom half of the left hand side of the mural. It should sit just under the bridge. He is concerned this will ruin the look of the mural. It is stunning isn't it?

What do you think?
The other idea I suggested was to use blackboard paint. I have been itching to do this and Katrina's post on
A Very Fine House made me think to suggest it. So his lordship is looking for ideas on whether to do the whole wall or just a part above the desk. If it is just a part above the desk then should we put a frame around it or tape it off to get a clean line? He would appreciate any pictures for suggestions.

My only concern with the blackboard is his handwriting is so incredibly messy- my eyes will hurt when ever I go in the room. I can see myself rubbing it out and doing it neatly for him- not that I am a control freak or anything
