Watching the Bachelor in my new pad…and I want to punch Jake. Just thought I should get that out there.
Anyway, how ARE you guys??
I feel like I’ve been away forever, but it was just what I needed. I got moved in and settled, LOVE it!! Seriously, our apartment is SO CUTE.
I’ll do a full tour later this week once everything is pulled together, but here are some shots of my room and bathroom.
Love my headboard! We made it out of an old door! [Well ok, Matt and Dad made it out of an old door. But I painted it!!!]
I’ll get some better pictures when it’s not night out…but here is one for an idea.
It overhangs a little…but it looks awesome anyway! [Come see it, friends!]
On the other wall I have my bookshelf, because well, I am a huge book nerd. I also have half a cabinet filled with my books as well as a huge trunk.
[Look mom! My closet is still organized!]
The bathroom turned out really well. I think it’s my favorite room. Is that sad?
My aunt is an interior designer and I love what she did with the vase on the counter!! It makes the whole room. [Don’t I look lovely in my gym clothes there? Thought so. Did I mention I am like two minutes from my gym now? Love.]
I also adore how this corner looks.
My TJ Maxx shower curtain and painting!!! They complement each other quite well me thinks!
And that’s pretty much it for now…
Except…
You know I packed…
THE SNUGGIE!
Mattchew dug it out tonight and tried it for size. What they say is true. Snuggies are indeed ‘one size fits all’.
Soooooo friends!
Catch me up!
*west coast spoiler!*
A.) What do YOU think if Jake and his klass act lady he picked?
Vienna sausage, that’s all I have to say.
B.) What did YOU spend the weekend doing??
Besides running up stairs and killing my calves [seriously!], I also dined upon taco bell, wendys, pizza and a chocolate elvis smoothie from planet smoothie. fast food much?
Love the new place!!
I seriously need to know how that headboard (door) was put up! We don’t have one and I seriously love that idea. …it’s very mod, yet antique-y. Enlighten me please!!!! 🙂
Ange, it was so easy! I’ll send you a link to a DYI web page.
GIRL YOUR APT IS SOOOO CUTE!!
I ADORE your bedspread!!! that is adorable.
hahah the SNUGGIE! is this a new boy in your life?!?

LOVE YOU WHIT BOOOOO
NOOOO!!! That’s my roommate’s boy!
thanks for the apt loveee!!!
I love your apartment! Your bedding is so adorable. The bathroom is amazing. And congrats on moving in!
That’s a cool idea for a headboard. Good looking and good for the environment.
Wall to wall olympics even when we played poker Saturday night.
I am so upset I can’t even talk about Jake right now. My stomach can’t handle it.
I love your new place!! Congrats! So hopefully I can see it in person soon….. riiiight? 🙂
Open invitation! You are always welcome!
i love the headboard! they MAKE a room-things look much more polished and grown up when you have one.

Welcome back! The apartment looks beautiful, I can’t wait for a proper tour!!
LOVe your room and all the decorations, it looks so professionally put together. that headboard is fabulous, what a beautiful accent to the room and gives ir real character 🙂
ughhhh I cannot believe he chose her. I give it 6 months. In some ways I think itsok, because tenley is too good for him, vienna is immature and I think hes attracted to that and also attracted to her more (why, I don’t know) but I do give it 6 months. More importantly what do you think of ali being the new bachelorette?! I think tenley should have been!
I think Ali is fake. that is what I think of that. haha
Your place looks so cute!!! I love the way you have it decorated 😀 And how clever to turn an old door into a headboard!
Glad you are settled in and back to blogging, cos I was missin ya there for a few days 🙂 Congrats on your new place!
PS. FitBloggin in 3 weeks!!!!!!!! So excited
I know!!! YAY!!! Come see me!
hahahahaha oh matthew! your apartment looks fabulous. come over and see my room when i’m done with the makeover! 🙂
What a bachelorette pad! That bedspread is so colorful-it rocks!
Beautiful bed! And your bathroom is glorious!
I have no idea wtf is going on with the Bachelor, not really a reality TV person. But as for the weekend, I saw a beautifffuuuulll ballet. I want to spend the rest of my life leaping and pirouetting.
Congrats on your move. I’m love your headboard!!! I am very made at Jake, what was he thinking? Tenley was such a better choice….I thought.
LOVE THE PLACE!! SO cute!! How exciting, you will love living on your own! 🙂
Oh and about Vienna?? She’s from here. Geneva, the small town she’s from? It’s 12 miles away from me. There’s a sign, haha. I know sooo many people who know her and nothing I have heard about her is good. Nothing. She’s as bad as everyone says.
You are so lucky to have such famous connections.
Ah, I so agree with your bachelor comments. That finale was so frustrating. What the heck was he thinking letting that Tenely girl go?! I never watch that show but just tuned in for the last episode… it’s super corny! 😛
love the place! so fun looking!
and i haven’t watched the bachelor yet! dangit…can’t believe he picked that stupid irl…
the new place is totes cribs status! enjoy it, ma! xo
OMG! Genius idea with the headboard, I love it!!!!! Your place looks awesome 🙂 Come decorate mine? 😉
I love the door idea! It’s so much fun taking something old and repurposing it. And the vase that Melanie put in your bathroom in awesome! I love that, too. I bet y’all will have lots of fun, good luck with bachelorette living!
can you come decorate my house, please? i gotta get on making my place more homey, homie.
Love the new apt. And what a great idea for the head board!!! Excellent paint job I must say 🙂
I *LOVE* the new pad!
That’s so exciting that you’re all moved in! Super cute, can’t wait to see the rest of the place. I remember when the hubs and I remodeled the kitchen last summer we ate so much fast food. So glad when I could cook again!
holy cuteness! your new place is adorable! i LOVE LOVE LOVE that headboard. could you ask daddy and future bro if they could make one for me? thanks.
and the bathroom – tres chic my dear!
ummm we need to catch up. it has been WAYYYYYY too long. i miss your southern twang.
love ya!
And I your midwestern twang.
mildly obsessed with your elephants!!
YAY!! Someone noticed my elephants!!! I adore them.
Yay! I’m so impressed at how quickly you decoratated. I just decorated this weekend and I’ve lived in my current pad for two months. LOOOVE the headboard!
Your new pad looks fabbbbbbbulous! I love your bedroom; it looks so chill and relaxing!
this season of the bachelor was the first season i’ve ever watched, and it will be my last. OH MY GOSH. i wanted to punch him in the face when he chose vienna. grrr. stupid boy. stupid. stupid. cute boy. i will never watch the bachelor again. by the way your head board is so cute.
Your new place is gorgeous!
Your new apartment looks so fun!! I can’t wait to come by and see it for myself! Have fun living it up in your new pad 🙂
yay for elephants! I love ’em too 🙂 I like how yours have looooooong trunks!
your apt looks great!!!!
i liked jake until he picked vienna. honestly, i could see that he seemed less like a robot with her than tenly. but seriously, he deserves her if they are happy together…i wouldnt want any of the others to have SUFFERED with him if that’s really who he is into…ick.
It looks so pretty! I want to add some more touches to our house. I love what they do to a space 🙂
ok yes i am being a creeper. where is your facebook. omg i tried to comment on your wall and you went missing. can i put ur face on a milk carton ASAP? gah come back!
xoxoxo 4eves
Lolo
Congrats on your new place! Moving and nesting is always so fun 🙂
Do you know what a few girls on my twitter suggested about the Bachelor and why he chose vienna sausages? (OMG I had this comment written out before I read to the bottom. Hilarious that we both call her the same thing!)
He doesn’t have to commit to marriage with her because she’s not marriage potential. Meaning that he can I suppose, dump her – go back to ALY (remember her!? I LOVE her) and then they’ll all be happy happy and maybe have babies and marriage.
I hope it works out the way I’m thinking it will, in my head. It’s so hard to know why he chose Vienna. They’re NOT a good match! All she has is big ol’ boobies.
I never thought I’d find such great information on the internet. I have saved this website and will be coming back for more. Great job and keep up the excellent work!
I love what your aunt did with that vase in your bathroom, do you know where she got the branches coming out of the vase?
I got those branches myself at Pier One. You can also find them at Hobby Lobby and Ikea.
Love the bedspread! Your place looks great! 🙂
