Welcome To My New Apartment!✨

Hello, Big Girl Apartment!

Sharing furniture, decorative items, & art that I recently used when moving into my new apartment! These pieces have made my apartment feel inviting and cozy and look fabulous! The items are budget-friendly and would look amazing in your space!

My goal for this space was to have a very ‘grown up’ feel while keeping it light & bright with fun pops of color. Anyone that knows me well knows I live for a good fushia rug and glitter on the walls. I created the space to feel like that while keeping some things understated (more adult!).

PHOTO DETAILS

ENTRY RUG: IKEA | [could not find exact but linked similar] This rug had to be extremely thin because of how the front door opens- the rug pictured is so thin and was $1.99 [I purchased five] but was unable to find online. I linked a similar one! | BARSTOOLS: Ballard Designs | These were a SPLURGE. I had a hard time finding counter-height barstools that I loved and in my opinion, these were worth the splurge! I only had room for two stools and found that many I liked, came in sets of three so I liked how these were sold as singles!

PHOTO DETAILS

DISH TOWELS: Target | I love these! They are available in a few colors [I grabbed the yellow as well] and they have held up well! The yellow is currently 50% off! | RUNNER: IKEA | I love this runner! The trim gives the flatwoven look a more ‘put together’ feel and is made of ‘sisal’ which is a natural fiber taken from the agave plant [holds up really well!] so it’s perfect for pets/kids/high traffic areas! | The definitions [2 ‘ 7 “x8 ‘ 2 “] | RUG TAPE: Amazon | My runner was sliding around the kitchen [especially when Reese was running around] and this tape has kept it perfectly in place!

PHOTO DETAILS

GOLD BOWL: IKEA | I love this decorative bowl- perfect for fruit! [I also love this one!] | TOASTER OVEN: Target | This is from college and has held up really well! [Currently on sale!] | NESPRESSO: Target | I love my Nespresso! I like this exact machine because you can brew five different kinds of pods [1.35 oz espresso, 2.7 oz double espresso, 5 oz gran lungo, 8 oz coffee, & 14 oz alto]. My parents have this machine [it’s great but cannot brew the same variety of pods] NESPRESSO PODS: Amazon | These flavors are my favorite [hazelnut, vanilla, & carmel]

DOG CRATE: Overstock | I love the look of this crate! I do not like the look of the traditional black wire crate [that is the one I had before] so I had been keeping an eye out for a more stylish crate! I found this one on sale & snagged it! Reese is currently 17 lbs and I got the 25.5 H x 23 W x 33 D and she has PLENTY of room. *Currently on sale* | FUR BENCH: Overstock | Mine was used throughout college [linked similar]

PHOTO DETAILS

RUG: IKEA | Mine is the 8 x 10- not available online but linked so you have the information! | COFFEE TABLE: Overstock | This coffee table is gorgeous! When I first saw it, I loved it but was nervous to see the price & when I did, I was shocked! Once I ordered it, I was nervous to see the quality because most similar pieces I found were $$$. The quality is GREAT! COUCH: IKEA | I went back & forth on which couch I was going to get and I am SO happy I went with this one! It is technically a loveseat [that’s all I had space for] and turns into a queen bed [we love a good sofa sleeper!] #functional | OTTOMAN: IKEA | I love the storage the ottoman offers [A LOT of storage]. I leave my ottoman at the end of the couch and it looks like it’s connected to the couch. The color of the couch/ottoman is “Inseros White” and the covers come off and are washable [much needed with Reese & Geoff, lol.] | THROW BLANKET: Barefoot Dreams | Simply the best! GREEN PILLOWS: Amazon | These were used in my bedroom at my parent’s house! The pillowcases are great quality! | MIRROR: Anthropologie | Mine is the 5′. My mom has the 7′ Floor & 3′ in her home and they are stunning! I got mine for Christmas a few years ago and have been longing for my own space to use it!

END TABLE: Overstock | [Matches the coffee table] Great quality! | ACRYLIC FRAME: Amazon | GOLD FRAME: Amazon | I was impressed with the quality of this frame! | COASTERS: IKEA | I love that these came with a holder! | LAMP: Home Goods | Kate Spade [found online] | TIERED CANDY JAR: Amazon | My mom filled this with Halloween candy and mailed it to me my freshman year of college [she is the best!] I have used it over the years & seasonally change out the candy!

PHOTO DETAILS

CURTAINS: IKEA | I like how lightweight and clean-looking these are! [hooks not necessary- another added bonus] | CHAIRS: Home Goods #1 and #2 [linked similar] | These were from my parent’s house [they were no longer using them] and I took them with me! They are several years old and I didn’t have luck finding them online. I love the similar options I linked! | WHITE TRAY: Amazon | PINK PEONIES: Home Goods | [Linked similar] | TISSUE BOX: Amazon | I love these because let’s face it, having tissues around the house isn’t esthetically pleasing, lol. | COASTERS: Tart By Taylor | Y’all, these are me in coaster form! Need I say more! #supportsmallbusinesses

DRESSER: Overstock | It was really challenging finding a white dresser that wasn’t children’s. I looked around for months and realized if I wanted a dresser that was going to hold up, I was going to spend a good bit. I am really happy with the one I ended up with and know that it will last a lifetime! | REMOTE TRAY: Amazon | At my parent’s house, I used these to display my perfume but at my apartment, they make the perfect remote tray!
