Apartment Update: Before Pictures

Finally the U-Haul boxes are unpacked and I can show you guys the new place! I say these are the “Before Pictures” because I have SOOO much planned design-wise that once I get my paws on this beautiful blank slate it is going to look like a brand new place!

“Dining Room”
This space is very open including the living room, dining room, and kitchen. 

Living Room
Rug: Ikea
Coffee table: Hand me down
Black couch: A random furniture store in the area that we had a 5% off and Free Shipping Coupon for. Total cost: $530…it’s real leather and super comfy… we couldn’t even find Ikea couches for that cheap.

Patio
 

Loft/Office
Like my tiny lil baby workspace? Hehe. The left is the man cave…where all the magic film editing goes down. 
I am SO pleased with the paint color (Sherwin Williams Wall Street) and wish we did the another wall in it!

Kitchen
Where Paula Deen (das me) does her thang…I know you see those beautiful blue pots in the distance.  

Bathroom
I be making a special appearance sporting my new fave hairdo a pile high bun and my favorite weekend attire…
(Silky leopard PJ pants: Target. T-shirt: Vintage (aka sorority shirt). Sweatshirt: (unknown))
I know… future famous fashion blogger…thank me later for the clothing tips. Leopard pants will be all the rage this spring.  

Bedroom
I love the paint color in here too (Sherwin Williams Peacock Blue). 

We bought the bed from Ikea, it’s called the Brimnes and it’s about $250. I love it because it has pull out drawers underneath the bed that are now home to my shoes and sweatpants. 
We used to have under the bed boxes that collected dust and I’m pretty sure some spiders made some nice little homes and did some baby-making under there. This prevents the former from happening. And it’s sleek.

And what is this?!? Our apartment comes with the most adorable wittle sweepy baby pup? 
SCORE!

 Let the design games begin!
xoxo,
Hannah

    I love the rug. My husband and I wanted to get one similar when we were down in Texas. Hasn't happened yet.

    Looks like a great apartment! When we moved into our new place this past summer I was scouring design blogs every chance I got! It's so exciting getting to make a new place into your home.
