Unfortunately I'm a contractor for interior designers and one of my clients did Rob Zombie's house. I got excited until I saw the actual product, I was expecting to see tightly squeezed horror movie memorabilia vying for space, wall to wall oversized vintage horror movie posters. Nope him & Ms. Sheri Moon live in a stale, cosmopolitan house. The funny part the designer was very religious and the firm she worked for at the time forced her to do the project much to her objection. If she refused it was career suicide

I bought an incredible 26.5 x 22 Grand Guignol grey framed b/ still from original DRACULA with Renfield kneeling before Bela. Dwight Frye in every way shape and form this thing. Lemme put it this way: if we have to evacuate (fire zone) it's one of first two things I put in the car!

Well she is quite the diva, as per her professional requirement, she has an actual good eye for design, she actually absorbs the space & is very receptive to her contractors. I am the first person she contacts for all her Gilding work, & sheet metal work. Now mostly consultation unless it's serious gilding. She is based in LA & pisses off all her local contractors that she comes to me first, a Dallas hillbilly punkrocker craftsman. Shhhhh including the Beltbuckle maker for WFMU premium swag on fundraisers
