Only 30 more days in the apartment. Let the countdown begin until our first house!
Apartment tour. Now, bear with me. She's tiny, but she's our home. And, she's been there for more than half of first year of marriage. She holds a ton of memories already. It's been fun being husband and wife here, learning how to make dinners here, cuddling with the pup as a family of 3 here, watching tons of law & order here, and worshiping God here.

THE STUDY
some of my favorite details.
one.
two.
three.
four.
THE KITCHEN
wine rack. I think Blake and my first purchase together :)
recipe/coupon holder
a little upper cabinet decor. globe cork holder - wedding gift from the brother/brother-in-law, what a great idea. Crate and vintage coffee grinder given to me for free (my favorite)
can you tell hydrangeas are my favorite? how about in a watering can, don't mind if I do!
what a great little corner. COFFEE. enough said.
LIVING/TV/GAME/DINING ROOM
many a dinner held here.
Dakota hanging out while I take photos.
I love navy stripes - can ya tell?
THE BEDROOM
our wonderful night stands re-done here
how about a ledge close-up?
how about that photo by kate love, and that iron duck? I feel like I'm slightly turning into Sherry from Young House Love
a lack-luster reading nook, which with a move date less than a month away, I'm not touching it.
THE BATHROOM
again. copied art. people on etsy are just so dang inspiring. we've only got two toothbrushes right now. eventually we'll get to add a tiny toothbrush or two or ten. looky here
So, there you have our first apartment as Mr. and Mrs. and Dakota Johnson. We have loved it, but canNOT begin to explain how excited we are to move to this new house. Here's to first attempts at home design. My hopes for the new house are that I will continue to grow and continue to be inspired - all for the sake of design.

Immediate left. Our dining room turned study where Blake has put in a TON of hours. First stop though is our make-shift entry way. Keys hung and files filed.
(Blake crafted that key key-holder in high school - ain't it cute?)
