{dear friend}

Man, we are nearing the end of the apartment tour. What, what!

It’s never ending, right?

But so totally amazing?

You love it?

Or you hate it?

Either way, it’s almost done so bare with me for these last two rooms today and tomorrow.

Now presenting… (drumroll, please)…. the LOO.

I think this bathroom is so flippin’ sweet. The blue tile is so snazzy. It’s even on the ceiling. How’s that for fancy?

We’re pretty much keeping it simple in here.

Simple as in that NO PARKING sign over the pot (I couldn’t help myself) and those totally amazing and adorable ikat towels that I DREAM about at night. What a steal those were (Anthro!).

That’s about it for this room.

And for a potty house I think it’s da bomb.

Oh, the study! How I love you so.

This room is a way for me to hold on to the orange and flowery decor that graced my old bedrooms over the past 6 years. It’s also a place for me to hold my “junk”. And I mean that in the nicest possible way. This is the room where my many books are held, endless picture frames of friends and family, and where I do my blogging gig. It’s real life, folks. And this is where is happens.

My mom made the orange curtains for me out of a king size Ralph Lauren sheet. Crafty, amiright? That amazing desk was brought by Zan and although I have to admit I took over the decorating, he brought a lot to the table in terms of home furnishings (the coffee table is his too). So, thanks, Zanner!

I spend many afternoons in this colorful room and it makes me happy. Orange: it’s good for the soul.

Welcome to the kitchen.

I think this room pretty much speaks for itself. It’s where we eat. And cook. And bake some too. The huge window over the sink is so refreshing… it brings light into the kitchen from dawn to dusk. Much of the details in here are inspired by Anthropologie. That place is most certainly heaven on earth, and so each time I go in I pick up a little piece of heaven to bring home.

Have a seat and stay awhile…
