This one’s inspired by my dear friend Bronson.

We’ve been emailing and texting each other for over 10 years. But in all that time we’ve never met in person; until about 2 months ago.

We’re the same age and both have pretty fond memories of the 1980’s. Bronson was showing me pictures of his office, and the walls are covered in framed 80’s electronica albums.

In my bachelor pad, just a few short years ago, I had a wall of framed records too. And I still have all those records in a box. Not sure if they play anymore……but all my favorites are here; Abby Road, Glass Houses, Rumors, and Thriller…..

…..and wouldn’t you know it……there are about 20 Christmas records in the mix.

How about if I do a wall of records for the holidays?

This is the wall next to the front door in our house. A scrapbook of our lives.

Perfect place to put my records for the next month.

I still have frames….but if y’all wanna copy this look, record frames are pretty easy to find.

These frames are 7 bucks at Ikea, and we found 3 packs at Michael’s for 10.

In about 20 minutes I’d framed 15 classic, and slightly juvenile, Christmas records.

The Grinch,

I love a cowboy, and who’s a better Cowboy than Gene Autry?

How great is the graphic on this Reggae Christmas album?

Nothing says festive like Kenny and Dolly with a severed Reindeer head? And check out those red talons on Dolly…..

I think I wore this album out when I was a kid….can you believe that I still have it?

It just wouldn’t be Christmas without Bing and his holly bow tie.

Kinda diggin’ on the graphic, clean (yet still slightly junky) look of this…….

Gift suggestion: I could use a turntable….
