Sweet Home

A small disclaimer- obviously I tired not to photograph the sketchy parts of my dwelling, including the ivy plants growing out of my carpet (yes, I am not exaggerating), the shower, which is too awful to joke about, and the fact that the kitchen counter is slowly but surely sinking into the floor beneath it. But, it's true I've collected some beautiful things over the last couple years of living on my own...

papasan chair- originally Pottery Barn, bought off of Craigslist

Yeah, there's not much exciting going on in here.

I think I did pretty good with what I had to work with... but until I get a significant raise I'll continue to spend my time dreaming of hardwood floors, breezy windows, and kitchen drawers.
