apartment tour -- library & bedroom

Part two of my apartment tour is my library & bedroom. 
You can see Part One here. 

The library is my FAVORITE room in my apartment. 

When I was apartment searching, 

two bedrooms was one of the only requirements. 

I have to have a space for all of my books. 

The library is also the office, craft room, & music room. 

I am slowly learning to play the piano and 

D keeps a guitar there as well. 

On to the pictures: 

Library ... 

One of my favorite parts of the library is my gallery wall. 

My best friend, Ams, is an incredibly talented artist. 

{previously gushed about here} 

She has sketched a ton of my Dr. Seuss books. 

So, I framed a few of my favorites and created a gallery wall. 

It turned out amazing!

My bedroom is the one room that needs the most work decor wise. 

I just don't even know what to do in this room. 

Bedroom ... 

I wish I would have gotten better pictures of this.
I turned a desk into a vanity, where I do my hair & makeup. 

I think I need more scarves ;) 

There you have it, 

my apartment. 

It is small and cozy 

and I love it! 

The big open living area makes it great for entertaining. 

Well, my kind of entertaining which means no more than six people allowed. 

I have already warned D that I will never want to move again.

apartment tour - main living area

I moved into my new apartment in February. 

So, I figured it was time to give my blog friends a tour. 

I actually took the pictures when I hosted wine club in April. 

I know I am a procrastinator. :) 

I took way too many pictures. 

In order to prevent picture overload, 

I am going to split the tour between two posts. 

This first post will cover the main living area: 

kitchen, living room, & bathroom. 

The second post will cover the bedroom & library. 

Now on to the pictures ... 

My kitchen and living area are one big open space, 

which I love.

You can see the laundry room beyond the couch 

Bathroom ... 

I am still in the process of decorating. 

I think I have finally figured out what to do with the wall above the couch. 

I just have to find all of the pieces I am looking for. 

Stay tuned for part 2 of the tour.
