Apartment Decorating

I love apartment decorating...my problem is I can never stick to one theme. I like to have my decorating really represent me but I have such diverse interests it just ends up looks like a mess. I'm moving into a new apartment in September and I have begun planning out simple decorations.

I want to keep the bedding and walls neutral and then have pops of color everywhere with the use of fake flowers, pillows, candles, etc. I also want to be a lot more organized and crafty with the decor. I want to have a lot of pictures of people and places.

Overall I want to be a calm and soothing place to be since it will be my home for the next 2 years.

My house and apartment.



I current split my time between the apartment close to Drexel and my house in the North East. I spend most of the weekday at the apartment and go home on the weekend because my mom wants to see me. If I don’t go home for more than a week, she usually calls by Wednesday asking me why I’m not coming back to see her. I usually miss my cat half way through the week and would go home every weekend just to see him anyway, but he gets mad at me for leaving him every Sunday.

At the apartment, I have 2 roommates (3 including me) and we live in a 1 bed room apartment. There isn’t much room at all but luckily I only have the necessities with me. 1 person lives in the bedroom with me and the other girl lives in the living room with a bunker bed. We still have a living room with a couch and dining room table, but everything’s cramped. The girl that lives in the bedroom with me is messy but luckily the other girl and I are pretty clean, plus the messy one is moving out in a few days!

The apartment only looks nice on the outside but its old and falling apart. We live on the first floor so we occasionally see the rodents and pests, but nowhere near as bad as my old apartment that was across the street from the University City dump site.
