I sometimes have the tv backlights on. Gets quite colourful in there. Sometimes turn it down!
UV, hmmm 🧐

I like this view (a tiny bit cluttered but solid quality and simple). what is the white box on floor (heater? bose?), and I am wondering what that glassy dark surface is on the left. and what is behind the camera, as in furniture and walls and halls.

Yeah the white box is a fan heater. The dark glass is the conservatory sliding doors. Need to get a tapestry up.
I’ll upload some side and back shots;the ones I have are too dark, so a few days ✊🏻
To the left is a giant tree of life tapestry, like the avatar films tree. On the chest of drawers is a shamanic drum, skull, angry African crossed legged sitting man, loads of crystals and shells.
To the right is a dark coffee table with a dragon back incense burner, lamp, and a giant red dragon. And more flowers, red.
Old settee with loads of skull and tree of life cushions. And blankets ✊🏻
It can be too intense on a liberty cap come up, but awesome with cubensis. The tree on the right turns into a cartoon green red and yellow Rastafarian dancing away under the influence of liberty caps!
Take care, DJ Ed

I'd personally omit random skulls staring at me but that's just preference.

Lol the penny has just dropped.....
I remember taking some really good shots of the sides of the space. Really colourful and bright. Awesome spectrum of colours, all changing etc.
I remember now; I took them on Friday night while tripping!!! 🤣🤣🤣
That’s why they’re all really dark on my iPad lol. I was looking for these bright colourful photos for absolutely ages earlier 🤣🤣🤣
Stay safe all, DJ Ed

Funny story, once on shrooms, I had an empty plastic bag on my bed and it came alive, it transformed into an old creepy woman that moved her mouth really weird. Me and a friend both seen it, my friend got scared, it was the first time he did shrooms. He quit all drugs after the trip

Lol, here’s an update from my trip report this last Friday, quite similar:-
at 30 minutes after drinking, I knew it was going to be really strong for only 3.7g. I decided no grass until I was coming down. So went to the back door for a cigarette. It was really dark. The dark part of the sky suddenly became a fractal mesh. The neighbouring houses looked really bright and misshapen. In the cloudy part of the sky, the cloud morphed into like the Michelin man tyre thing. Arms outstretched facing towards me. It’s mouth opened revealing sharp pointed teeth, a mouthful. It slowly but deliberately reached down and bit a chunk of the sky, and house tops. I looked away, smoked some fag, looked back, shit it was still there still eating. You don’t need to see that shit at 30 minutes in! So I put the fag out, went back inside, wrapped my (oh so comforting) blanket around me, and carried on through Space Ritual to the ego death.
Cheers, DJ Ed

Looks like a good place to trip, although I think some of these objects would freak me out (in a good way) if they were in my peripheral vision during a trip.
I like the collection of things on the chest or table with the clockwork skull e.t.c
In the first picture in the original post I thought you had a pair of crossed swords under the TV, then I realised it was just the stand 
My humble suggestion would be to get a few cheap tribal / ethnic / psychedelic type fabric throws to cover the bare walls, then it would be 110% psychedelic

It can be a bit “lively” at times, but in general I embrace the visuals. Sometimes change rooms to something less intense :-)
I like the collection of things on the chest or table with the clockwork skull e.t.c Ive been collecting stuff since returning to mushrooms almost 4 years ago. The crystals and shells are to help against evil spirits. I often light white sage incense too, which is known for keeping the evil spirits away. Always helps me mentally.
My humble suggestion would be to get a few cheap tribal / ethnic / psychedelic type fabric throws to cover the bare walls, then it would be 110% psychedelic  I had a giant tree of life (like the tree out of the movie, Avatar) on the wall behind the chest of the hangers came unstuck a couple of weeks back. Need to come up with a more permanent solution.
My wife sometimes returns early from shopping so she’ll chill in there with me while I’m coming down. I love that chilled headspace when it all calms down. We’ll have a glass of wine, share a joint, and chill to Pink Floyd. It can be hard trying to keep up with her though when my head is full of eternity and she’s trying to tell me about her shopping experiences :-D]
Take care, DJ Ed/color]
