Home sweet home

My house in Austin is really all I've ever wanted in a place as a young adult--colorful, spacious, social, in a safe neighborhood, within walking distance from everything.

House

The living room is bright green and my wonderful housemate Meredith brought all her fancy art to hang on the walls.


natural light is lovely.
Also, our bathroom is AMAZING. It was basically all Meredith, too. After Mike & I picked up a candy red trash can and I got some bright lipstick red towels, she color coordinated the shower curtain (not to mention books/knick knacks) with it and it's just lovely. 

and woody allen.
And... my bedroom. I'd been imagining how to decorate my bedroom for months before I moved in. I wanted it to be DIY, colorful, and inspiring. Here's the result:

Thanks, goodwill!

Huge walk-in closet.

And some more close-up DIY action:

DIY Craigslist nightstand. $20. Lamp, Goodwill, $5.
And what I've always dreamed of. Vanity, Craigslist, $20, Mirrors, Thrift, $10, Chair, Antique Store, $35.
DIY whiteboard $12 for a billion of them at Home Depot.
Our patio and back yard are still a work in progress. More on those later.
