For Aunt Marti! I LOVE YOU! And for everyone else...

Finally! A tour of my awesome apartment! It is not fully finished but I will add more photos when it is done. I have done a lot to the place. There was too much blue for my liking :) The curtains and bedding was here. I added the small pink pillow and large green pillow. I love my apartment! It is very cozy and officially has the touches of me! I wanted to add a little spice of bright color to the place for winter hits. The walls were completely bare when I arrived. I have slowly been adding decorations when I find them. Anything from my duckie (piggy) bank to my pink colored trashcan to my Eiffel tower seat cover! Here goes...


My front door :) The shelf is for your shoes! Its either socks or bare feet in my house!
View from when you first walk into the apartment. I am going to turn left and show you that side of the apartment. The shower and toilet. :)
Traditionally the bath is simply used for a bath not for showering. WELL, My floor does not really have a drain SO I have turned my bathroom more into a Western Style room. I added a shower curtain for privacy.
My cute new mat and shower curtain :)
View into the kitchen area from where the toilet is. From this view the Shower is to the right and my washer and dryer are to the left!
CRaZy bathroom! I have HUGE white walls...I HAD TO COVER THEM! :) The toilet set was just fun. The toilet is also white..ugh! So I changed that!!!
Kitchen table and chairs that Lauren bought. She also bought the blue rug on the ground. The fabric is a new touch by me :) The idea was already there but I just changed the pattern. Too much blue!
pink trashcan and stove top!

Fridge, microwave, sink, etc. and my CUTE pink apron!

View from stove/trashcan area. Sink! Lauren hung some curtains to give the sink some privacy and to make it like another little room!
Cupcake mat! i had to :)
My bedroom!!
desk area :)
Fun butterflies I found in Nashville. Aren't they so Japan?!
I have been warm at night even with the AC so I discovered how to pull my main comforter to the end of the bed to make it not so hot. I sleep with a sheet and a blanket.

Living room! In the winter that table turns into a heater. There is a blanket you use and it creates heat. I have a feeling I will be living in my living room in the winter! :)

Cute cupcake candle I found :) on sale :)
I have to buy myself flowers! They are so beautiful here!!

I hope you enjoyed the tour and it gave you a better sense as to where I am living! I LOVE my place! It certainly is an incredible first apartment :) There is a ton of storage in the living room too. LOVE YOU guys tons! Miss you! COME VISIT!!!

Dearest Lauren! Thanks you soooo much for the very personal tour of your new digs! F A N T A S T I C! It looks like you are very settled in and have made it "your own"!! I hooked Dylan up to your Japan blog so that he can keep up too...haven't talked to Justin since midweek so I will make sure he sees it too...along with Erika. I love you and hope you have a splendid week.

kisses, Aunt Marti
