Want a little peek into my SF digs?

Phase one in rearranging/redecorating my apartment is complete. Yesterday I moved my bed to try and maximize space in my tiny apartment and I'm quite pleased with the results so far. I realize the bed is now in front of a door...which is normally a big feng shui no-no...but that door is just an excess entryway to my big ol' walk-in closet. Yep, I have 2 doors to my closet (how Carrie Bradshaw of me). I figure blocking one to make room for more livable, breathable space is totally feng shui approved (don't quote me on that, I have no idea what I'm talking about).

Phase two plans are under way, including a cool piece of photographic art that will hang on the door and make it look like a window to the outside. Pretty pumped about that! More pics to come :)

BTW, I love this bed. Just looking at it now makes me want to crawl right in and cozy up with my Kindle. I'm thinking I may swap out my current duvet cover for a solid white one--I really like when things just look crisp and clean--but for now the neutrals with pops of color suit me just fine. I think it's so important to take the time to make a space for yourself that feels super welcoming and comfortable; a space that beckons you to come home and regroup. I've been quite the little Danny Tanner neat freak lately and I'm hoping that energy actually sticks around. A clutter free, clean home is great for a clutter free, clear mind. It also sends out a strong energy for welcoming new friends; when you're happy with where you live, others will be happy to be in that space as well. I can't wait to see who my evolving apartment brings into my life :)

In Gratitude,

Trish

Not that it gets cold enough in SF to warrant a down comforter but the Calvin Klein Almost Down Comforter I got from Macy's is perfect for the white, crisp feeling! I didn't know I could love my bed so much until after that little addition.

PS: SATC marathon on E last night had the ep with Aidan moving in and Carrie explaining the double closet door theory. Classic :)

Obsessed with your headboard! And the green throw!

Hey Trish, I still read your blog, and I totally noticed you ripped off my idea about the window!

Can you come and re-do my studio apartment? P.S. How in the hell did you find an affordable apt with a walk-in closet. I WOULD CUT SOMEONE FOR THAT. Seriously... cut.
