Some fabulous things to report! I have finally photographed my apartment and now everyone can see my progress with it!

First of all, my newest addition, meet Penelope!

I found this BRAND NEW mixer at Target for 1/2 of the usual price. Truly one of my best finds ever.

Next I found this hand container for all my nail polish to keep it upright. 

You would not believe how long I've been looking for something exactly like this and I got this one for $3!

Random other thing – those of you who really know me know that I am obsessed with the show Gilmore Girls. I was super excited when a character from that show own an Emmy this year for his work on the HBO film Game Change.

Now, on to the apartment!

Here is storage central, a combination of a storage tower and the wire rack I bought at Costco  earlier this summer. I'm storing food on the rack (haphazardly as you can see) and crafting supplies in the drawers. 

My record player has found a new home in my old suitcase. 

So precious.

Here is my, slightly filthy, living room. I'm working on organizing all the stuff 

behind the chairs but it's hard with just one closet.

My DVDs! Yay! I found a place for all of them (or most, as you will see).

Speaking of which, here are the rest of them! I have all my DVD series over here. 

I also put together those crates (and stained them, see previous post) that contain my VHS tapes (for 2 for $1 at Goodwill why not by Jungle 2 Jungle).

My deck needs work. I have to find a system of using all that cord to make my temporary drying lines. Otherwise though it's very awesome for storage and early morning coffee.

Here are my awesome bathroom decorations. I framed Gray's Anatomy pages for the walls. Pretty nice, huh.

I

My fancy soap dish and lavender on the counter.

My thrifted crystal stand with my precious jewels.

My trusty comb holder – and me creepin' in the background.

More bathroom decorations!

The wall I'm almost finished decorating in my living room. Most of the images I framed except some of the flowers and the old guy who has been seen in all of my homes :)

 My incoming table when you enter the apartment has some weird dried plants, a lamp, and my scentsy thing! It also has Sid, my balsa wood dinosaur.

Those racks allll came from the dollar store!

This one too!

More later, but for now I hope this gives a good idea of how awesome my apartment is going to be!
