It’s finally here!! Our colorful bedroom makeover!! I’ve been working on this for so long, that I can’t believe I’m actually posting about it. The last time I gave my bedroom a makeover was back in 2016 (remember this?!). Since then, a lot has changed.

So here it is, my closet makeover: Continue reading…

We wanted desks to accommodate both of our work areas, but not overpower the size of our living room (it’s an open floor plan that leads into the kitchen). Essentially we wanted it to be functional and offer some storage for our small apartment, without looking clunky or disorganized since any guest that come over will see it.
