I read somewhere, Kathy, that a well-designed room should evoke an emotion. You nailed it with the bathroom! I would find a reason to use that bathroom 🤣. Another octopus book is “Remarkably Bright Creatures” by Shelby Van Pelt…you may have referred this to me. I plan to take an inventory of what’s in my environment…in my head…on my calendar…thank you for this inspiration my friend.

Hi Donna. I will definitely check out Shelby's book. I just love learning about them. So glad this post spoke to you. Can't wait to have you in my home someday and you can hang with them :)

Well first of all I love your bathroom ! All the details- the art- the necklace on the windowsill- the sideways octopus. I bet it is a real conversation starter when guests use your restroom!

Also love My Octopus Teacher- I tell everyone they must watch it! Today- I was actually thinking of my bathroom door and how I could paint it-to go with the spanish tile we put in!

Hi Debbie. Thank you!! It is a sweet place and definitely generates conversation. I'm glad I found a kindred spirit on My Octopus Teacher. My Mom finally took my suggestion and she can't stop talking about it. Now, I must see a photo of your bathroom door when you complete it!

Kathy, I had always thought my next tattoo would be reminiscent of the sea and I love the octopi observations you’ve called forward. Hmmmm maybe, I’m starting to collect tattoos ☺️

Collecting tattoos…sounds like a life long love store. 😌
