photo update maybe

: : I think this weekend it might happen. I have the whole weekend to myself to work on the apartment, and I might just find the camera and be able to put together a small photo collage of our new place.

I think this room divider is cool. I apologize, I can no longer remember where I found it.

: : domino mag has been a constant source of inspiration for me lately. and I just received the new issue in the mail!! I found this article about .carina schott. , owner of nonchalant mom [via decor8]. it reminds me of home somehow, maybe it's the forest setting, the black facade with a red door, the simplicity of the house....I don't know, but there's a very scandinavian feel about it. I love how the house is built in two parts. the house just seems to have a really good balance of function and aesthetics. some day....maybe we'll find a house like this.

bedroom rug

: : we're planning on painting our bedroom a pale green, and are having a hard time finding a rug that will fit well. we don't want a light colored rug because it gets dirty so quickly. so I'm liking this hot pink. anyone know where you can get rug tiles like this in hot pink?

: : so the big move happened on sunday. two truck loads, two moving dudes and some very helpful friends....and then we were sitting in our new apartment, surrounded by boxes and pieces of furniture stacked on top of each other. every day there are improvements, but we have a long way to go. we're currently working on picking some colors for the rooms. nice timing with the long weekend coming up. it will likely be spent unpacking and painting. I promise I will share updates on here. it's just that, I can barely find clothes to wear in the mornings, let alone a camera to document our progress. soon.....

all I know is that .hanna werning's. animal flower wallpapers will be decorating our walls, somewhere in the apartment!
