Apartment Living

This week, our poor little apartment is under construction. A large section of the bedroom ceiling is cracked and the gap has been getting gradually bigger. That means we had to move our bed into a vacant unit in our building, and will be sleeping there for the next 5 days. The only positive thing is that the vacant unit is the closest to the laundry room – hooray for convenience and not having to walk up and down 3 flights of stairs to get clean towels!

However, having to empty out our bedroom and shove everything into are already packed living room helped me realize that I need to get rid of stuff – A LOT of stuff! I have too many side tables that take up too much room and way too many unnecessary things in my closet. A purge is needed, and that also gives me an excuse to move things around and redecorate a little bit.

Home decor is definitely a weakness of mine. I love making my apartment feel like a home, just by adding plants, artwork, or decorative pillows. Putting a lamp in a different corner of the room, or adding a small rug, can make all the difference. Like I said, it’s definitely a weakness/slight obsession.

That’s why I decided to create a page on my blog called HOME DECOR, which will include a gallery of pictures from my apartment, inspiration ideas, DIY projects and wish lists. I love seeing the way other people decorate their spaces, so I wanted to share some insight into my cozy downtown apartment with you.

I can’t wait to reorganize my bedroom once the ceiling is fixed, and add some updated pictures to my blog.

Happy Monday everyone!

    1. Really well, just noticed this comment! Been busy making my Halloween costume also and just got a new client for another large painting! Things are going really well, thanks for asking! 🙂 How are you doing?!

      1. Oh, that’s wonderful about the large painting – congratulations. That would be akin to me finding a publisher, which I need to think about! Is it something cosmological again? Hope the costume worked out! I’m okay thanks. The words have been flowing out copiously of late, which is always good, of course…! Best wishes.

      2. That would be amazing for you – and I wish you all the best in finding one. I’m sure it won’t be too tedious, since your work is amazing, and already should be shared with the whole world!
