Totoro followed me to Bellevue!!

Totoro is here in Bellevue! I found him inconspicuously hanging out in a corner of my bedroom today. (which sounds creepy, but I promise it isn't.)

Okay, so maybe that isn't how it actually happen.... he didn't just appear there. I just like the idea that he did. :)

I found this wall decal on amazon.com last year, and put it on my wishlist. My parents bought it for me for my Birthday last year. I didn't have the perfect spot for it in San Francisco, so I brought it to Bellevue with me.

After much pondering of where to put it, I decided on a little corner nook in our bedroom. (and yes, this was fine with Dick. Luckily, Totoro amuses Dick as much as he amuses me.) I figured Totoro is a shy guy who likes to be inconspicuous. The other idea was to put him in the 1/2 bathroom, which I figured may be too public of a space for him.

So, I tucked him into the little nook in our bedroom, above my Ikea chair that has leaves and branches on it. He usually lives in a forest, so I thought this would make him feel more at home.

The large wall decal came with a couple of smaller ones to "practice" with. I decided to put these in little inconspicuous places in our 1/2 bathroom.


here's a little Totoro walking across the top of the bathroom counter

and here's a little dust-bunny guy hanging out in the corner, near the floor.

Unfortunately, it seems that the amazon seller who we bought these decals from no longer sells Totoro products. I did a search, and found an ebay seller who has the same design.

update
Nicole sent me an Epsy.com link with lots of Totoro Wall Decals.
