It’s been nearly a full year since Jeff and I moved into an apartment together. The most perfect lil apartment there ever could be! The first room we ‘finished’ decorating was the living room. ‘Finished’ because is a room ever truly done? No! I think it’s safe to say we both consider this our favorite room of the whole apartment. All our favorite things are displayed in this room. It’s where we spend the most time, and where we feel most truly at home.
I had been avoiding photographing it for a while now because I truly don’t think photos do it justice. Every time I’d start to take photos for this post I’d feel like the room was just missing something. In reality, while hanging out in the room, I could never figure out what that thing was though. Then the other day I randomly took a picture of the room that inspired me to finally give shooting it another try aaaand here we are now! Enjoy!

Love this!
You always have the coziest home. Question: kitchen tour? I don’t think I have seen one on the blog yet!
I guess I’ve never really thought about doing one because my kitchen is kind of just… a kitchen? But thinking about it now I guess there are lots of little touches that make it ~my~ kitchen. I’ll definitely add that to my to-do list! 🙂
I love how this room is busy & full of things, but it’s not at all cluttered or overwhelming. Looks great – & so your style!
Thank you, Kate! That’s one of my favorite compliments!! 🙂
Ugh I have major collection (and esp taxidermy envy) whenever I see glimpses of your home. So, so great.
Thanks, Allie! We need to have you over! We talk about you all the time and how we wish you lived closer.
I love that picture of Klaus posing on the couch! haha looks like he should be in am interior design magazine!
Hahah! He’s a model!
I love yours + Jeff’s unique taste in decor! It’s so opposite to mine (which is basically anything pink and/or shaped like food), but I still adore it and love seeing it all in one space!
I’m very curious as to how your pets are with all your collectibles? I collect so many things, and most of them are breakable, and I’m super nervous to get a cat or pup in case it turns into a bull-in-a-china-shop situation. Do you have any issues with your pets breaking things? Everything you have is so unique so I’m sure you’d want to protect it as much as possible!

Thanks so much!
They’re angels with all my stuff! *knock on wood* They’ve never broken or even come close to breaking something!
It looks so cozy and inviting! Plus you have some of the coolest stuff!
Thank you so much, Sarah! 🙂

[…] bedroom lovely. I’d like to think I’m pretty good at decorating. My office is cute, my living room is the coolest but my bedroom? It’s not so great. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not […]
[…] pretty utilitarian. I don’t feel like it’s underdecorated but it’s certainly not my living room. We’re also renters so it’s not like I’d be posting to share my excellent choice […]
Your house looks so homey something I have yet to attain for myself!
Thanks, Kristy. 🙂
