Home: First Look
We've had a change of pace and scenery lately. Instead of roaming around the city hunting for grimey alleys to explore, we've spent our days weeding through the aisles of IKEA looking for the perfect minimal pieces for my new apartment. After countless hours of hauling and building, we are happy to say that our relationship has passed the IKEA test. It's far from being complete, but this studio apartment is all mine. It's my new home. I have big plans for this gorgeous small space so stay tuned for more home updates.
Like with any big changes, the move brought about a tidal wave of emotions--some of which I'm still sorting out despite having lived here for a little over two weeks now. With a new job and new adventures on the horizon, I just have to remember the wise words of C.S. Lewis and that "there are far better things ahead than any we leave behind."

I love how you've decorated your studio apartment and I'm glad to hear that your relationship has passed the Ikea test. I love the minimalist pieces that you picked out and the bedroom area looks so cozy! I'm looking forward to seeing what pieces you continue to add to this space over time.

Loving the details of your new home and the overall minimalist vibe! Looks like something straight out of Pinterest :P Isn't a Pinterest-interior all we could ever ask for? haha. Anywho, I wish you the best with adjusting to the new changes, and I hope you find many adventures along the way! -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's
ReplyDeleteOh I love your new place and the chic, minimalistic decor! I am a big believer of using plants and flowers to accent the house and I really like the greenery you added to the space! And such wise words from C.S. Lewis! Something we all need to remember to confidently move forward :) xo~ Lena

I even have a Pinterest board ready with decor inspiration hehe.

Hi Jasmine, I'm excited for you to have your own apartment! I love that the floors and walls are simple and minimalistic - it's always a good start. You chose some great items; I especially love the rack for your handbags. I experienced those trips to IKEA, too, so I know they can be pretty daunting.
