My Tiny NYC Apartment

 You have seen pictures of my bathroom renovation, the new floors and the painted ceiling. Now I finally feel like my living room is looking good. I would love to eventually place a chair in the corner by the window.  Most of the paintings on my gallery style wall are my own artworks, and a two others come from a book of old American prints. And of course, my husbands beautiful guitar.

This is Zoe.

   Mini Library.

 This is my little closet office and artists studio. We took the old doors off of the closet and hung floor to ceiling curtains. The upper closet was for storage so I bought rice paper blinds to cover up the mess. I bought this mid century modern looking desk on craigslist which hold all of my art supplies perfectly. This office has changed my life with all of its organization possibilities.

I renovated this kitchen years ago. All it needed was a good scrub and a fresh coat of paint on the walls. Its small, has no dishwasher or freezer (we have under the counter refrigerator drawers), but suits all of my needs.

House in the Mountains

My parents recently bought a home at the base of the San Tan mountains in Arizona. They bought the house without actually seeing it in person, but couldn't resist the pictures they saw of the surrounding area and the views from the home. I completely agree with them. Its breathtaking.

 My parents want to use the home as a vacation rental and a Christmas vacation home for the family. They asked me to decorate it with all new furnishings so Josh and I flew down to Arizona for a week and stayed at my Aunt and Uncles home while we shopped more than we have ever shopped in our lives. I had already pre-ordered some furniture online to be shipped to the house, but filling a 2,500 sq/ft home in a week is pretty difficult. We had carpets cleaned, and all of the rooms painted which made a huge difference. I took a few pictures, but Im hoping to take more next time I go visit.
