Our Apartment // Photo Tour

|

I’m gonna go ahead and ask you all to ignore the fact that we’ve now lived in this apartment for seven months, and I’m just now getting around to having it fully decorated and sharing it. Let’s just pretend that it took me a sensible month or two to finish the place (and show you). Shall we? Great.

Now that we’ve got that all taken care of, here’s our apartment! Well, as it stands right now. I kind of like to change things (a lot), so who knows what it’ll look like next month. But for now, here she is in all her glory.

Isn’t that bar cart just the business?! Dear darling Roxy at Society Social makes the best bar carts you can imagine. I’d been wanting one forever when we were living in NYC but we just didn’t have the space. And now this little beauty has all the room it needs.

One thing that I loooove about this place is that we have a workspace! Just me and Mr. Lovely, in our snuggly side-by-side desks, taking on the world.

The living room is pretty cozy, too.

And for those of you with a keen eye, yes, that is a blank canvas hanging on our bedroom wall. We can’t for the life of us figure out what to put on it. Suggestions?

Oh, and I still have a hard time believing that we have an actual dining table where we can eat! (And a kitchen that we can both stand in at the same time because it’s not teensy.) Seriously. I mean, eating dinner on the couch is awesome, but a girl likes to at least have an option, ya know?

And just a few more bits and pieces: a little patio the perfect size for two, lots of storage for books (and an ever-growing population of musical instruments), and plants everywhere you turn. We’re home. xoxo

  1. How about your sources for…everything? Your place looks amazing! I’ve been in my current apartment for about 6 months and I swear we’re not even close to this point. I’ll definitely be using this house tour as some major design inspiration, you have such great taste
    🙂

  2. Chelsea, your home is lovely indeed 😉 Seriously though, thanks so much for sharing this peek into your home. It’s so much fun to see inside homes, and see how much they’re a reflection of their owners 🙂 Yours is so bright and cheery…and I adore your side-by-side workspace!

    1. Thanks doll! I’m loving having you back in blogland so I get to know what you’re up to — it’s so wonderful to get peeks into your life with all of its new adventures. xo

  3. I would LOVE to know where you got the piece of art hanging from clips near the bar cart! Also, I love all of your art choices and the letter press piece is amazing!

  4. Your place is so awesome. 7 months is not a bad time line to decorate. Try 3 years…this chick.

    Those giant jacks are catching my eye. Where did you pick those up.

  5. Love your place! It’s so lovely and inviting. We’ve living in our house almost 3 years and I still have yet to share a full house tour… You’ve inspired me to finally do it!

  6. Your apartment is LOVELY, just like your blog. It is such a pleasant time whenever I drop by here. It always feels so cheery and I love that it’s one of my solutions if I ever need a pick-me-up. Your space is such an inspiration to all of us renters! Thank you for sharing and I truly truly love coming here.

  7. I love your apartment! It is so LOVELY!

    In your kitchen, there is a united states cutting board? Where did you get that from? I’m a history major and that would be awesome to have in my kitchen.

    1. Yes! It was from the Curiosity Shoppe shop at Target a few months back. I’m not sure if you can still find it — maybe if you search around online a bit!

  8. Your space is beautiful! It looks so cozy and well styled. Great pictures too. I love many things in it, but I’m in the market for a more functional desk. Where are yours from? Is the bottom drawer a filing cabinet?

    Thanks!

  9. Beautiful place! I’ve been pining over a SS bar cart, I hope to get one soon.

    I love your string of pearl plants and their pretty pots. I think it has inspired me to do something similar!

  10. I’m in love with your place. Beautiful! That bar cart is my dream come true. Love it! Very inspirational. Our walls are still bare & white after living here for over 6 months. This makes me want to get to work! 🙂

  11. YESSS! Can we talk about that fabulous fox letter opener?
    P.S. I also really enjoyed your DIY Gold Dotty Mousepad tutorial.

  12. Love it all! But particularly interested in where you got the gold flatware? Obsessed! xo

  13. Lovely place! So happy to have found your blog! Can you please tell me where did you get those gold forks and spoons? thanks!

    1. Hi Ramneet! I actually found them at a flea market, so they were a one-of-a-kind. But there’s some great gold flatware at West Elm right now! I have found that you just have to hand wash and dry them right away to keep them looking great.

  14. I am in LOVE with your sofa! I have been looking all over for one like that! Where did you buy that?

    1. Oh my goodness, I’ve actually had that sofa for close to 10 years and got it at a little department store in my hometown (which is now out of business). Not even sure I remember the name! If I can find any more info about it, I’ll definitely contact you. 🙂
