A glimpse at my (soon to be former) home

I've lived by myself in a small studio apartment since July, and even though it was only a short term home (five or six months total) it was really cozy and made me feel at home, something I never seem to be able to get with a housemate. Now that I'm moving in with Tim (who I don't think counts as a "housemate" in that non-homey sense), I may be giving up the bachelorette pad forever (ha)... at least, that's the hope when moving in with a serious boyfriend, right? I'm thrilled to move, but this little place has treated me well during my short time here, so here are some parting photos.

Bedroom:

posters from an 11th grade trip to the actual Moulin Rouge

vanity made from an IKEA mirror and lights and an old dresser

cheap wooden board + tiny nails: necklace organizer

view of the "bedroom" (as seen from the kitchen portion of the studio)

cluttered shelves, which double as a living room/bedroom divider

Living room:

Larousse Gastronomique was a fantastic $4 purchase at a used bookstore in San Francisco 

I own more cookbooks than all other books combined, I'm pretty sure.

I love any excuse to pull out some fall candles, especially the ones from Bath & Body Works

Dining "room"

My entire apartment, as seen from the kitchen

and in the other direction (bedroom to kitchen view)

Kitchen:

I love my pinup calendar so much. (and yes, it has taken me two months to post these photos)

The Bathroom:

my bathroom is hardly big enough to have any sort of decoration, but I somehow managed to fill it with owls

Shower curtain, mat, and toothbrush holder all from ModCloth (pre-job)
