NYC Apartment: Christmastime

New York City Apartment: Christmastime
Our (very little) NYC apartment, all cozy and decorated for Christmas. πŸ™‚ This little 700-square-foot little place and I have spent a lot of time together over the past couple of months and I’m pretty happy with some of the things my roommates and I have crafted up as decor inside. We haven’t spent very much money fixing everything inside, just a bit of time and a lot of exacto-knifing, Mod-Podging, and street-scrounging. (Seriously, the streets of New York City are like free garage sales at times. [Which always end in a lot of 409/bleach.]). πŸ™‚ I want to talk more about where everything came from in another post about our apartment without all the Christmas thingamajigs, but for now, let’s talk about twinkle lights and Charlie Brown Christmas trees. πŸ™‚

Couch stilts– good for stacking more stuff. Seriously good idea in a NYC apartment.

    Your apartment looks gorgeous πŸ™‚ Think my house in the UK is about the same size as your apartment, but you've managed to get some much more stylish decorating done!
