This past weekend I spend a huge chunk of my Saturday tidying up and really getting the last of my move over. It’s pretty silly it took me three months to go through those last boxes, huh? After this, I finally felt comfortable taking a few snapshots to show you all a little peek into my living quarters here in Cleveland. I live in an area of town called Lakewood, which is just to the west of the city and right on Lake Erie.

I fell in love with this place after seeing all the detailing and charm that it had. There are cute little nooks, built-in cabinets, and slightly arched ceilings. Keep browsing to take a peek at the built-in toilet paper holder, hah. My bathroom is also Barney colored. I don’t hate it. The fact that there is a separate dining area is something I’m thrilled about. I’m all for an open concept, but having your dining, office, and living room all together in the same space is something I was glad to leave in Savannah.

I’m still getting there, week by week as far as the decorating goes. This is the second place I’ve lived in alone, and I’m taking baby steps. The graphic design thinking definitely doesn’t translate to interiors the same way. I realized I placed everything against my walls, and then hung art all at the same height in every open space in most of the rooms. Hah. Cheers to getting there, and any tips that you could throw my way would be greatly appreciated!

OH! And I have PLANTS! Just two at the moment, but boy to they make me smile.
