my happy place.

When I came home yesterday, exhausted after an already long week, this little corner of my room put me in a happy place. I think the tulips are ultimately responsible, but also, I love how this space isĀ filled with all things that are so very “me”.

I’m a knick-knack person at heart, but in my quest for simplicity I think I’ve done a pretty good job at keeping a balance in this new space. I stopped buying things for the apartment awhile ago and just simply started to enjoy each room and the pretty details I’ve added to them.

I have a hard time picking my favorite spot, but the bedroom just might be it.

    I thought those might be anthropologie knobs! it’s so important to like your home and have a place to come back to. very pretty space, especially with the flowers.

  2. Aaah tulips- what a beautiful flower. Your happy place is loverly. Does your dude also have his happy place?

    • Haha funny you should ask– I kind of booted his stuff to the back room. The “man cave” as I like to call it. A basketball hoop over the door just isn’t my style, you know??

  3. Ohhh my goodness this is so me! I love having special little spaces like these around the apartment. Can’t wait to go check out your apartment tour :) xoxo, eliza

  4. This is SO you. I always think the same thing when I browse your pinterest. Everything is always soft-looking and some shade of pink or orange. =)

    Looks so beautiful though. You really have an eye for decor!

  5. That dresser would put me in a happy place, too. It looks like we have pretty much the same taste in clothes, design, decoration, etc. I love the tulips and the anthropologie knobs. So cute! :)

  6. How girly and feminine! I don’t have any nooks like that in my home but you’re giving me some inspiration of how to put one together

  7. I really need a happy place in my home! What a nice way to brighten yourself up a bit after a hard day. Fresh flowers…especially tulips…I need to invest more!

  9. I adore your happy place, it looks like a really pretty place to retreat. I’m attempting to create a happier space in my room; I can never seem to get the balance right between being neat, and not being messy…!

    Also…if you want to join in, I’m playing a little game of blogging tag…! If you have the time, then you’re “IT”! http://starsandrainbows.wordpress.com/2012/04/05/youve-been-tagged/ xxx
