Right after we had a baby and moved into a new place, my husband and I decided we wanted to get a tapestry to hang over our bed to tie the room together. For some reason it turned into this really difficult thing. Like we were deciding on matching tattoos or something permanent, and we just couldn't make a decision. For over a year, we would send each other tons of examples, agree on a bunch, narrow it down from there, and then still end up not picking one for one reason or another.
One day ~3ish years ago we were just hanging out listening to music. My husband noticed the very bizarre album cover art for Minnie Riperton's Adventures in Paradise, and showed it to me like "THAT'S FUCKING AWESOME!" and then jokingly said "that's what the tapestry should be."
I can't remember much else, but it seemed so ridiculous it almost felt like a challenge. I looked into it and found out it's surprisingly cheap to just make your own tapestry by getting an image printed on cloth. So I ordered it and then we immediately forgot about it. Several weeks later I had no idea what it was when it arrived in the mail.
We were probably sleep deprived and loopy, but other than that 100% sober when we made this decision. No regrets:
