Room Progress

living room tour
A new use for the coat rack!






Pullip dolls & textbooks.


Thrifted Lucy book & Janis Joplin quote painting.



It's still quite bare but this is what I have so far. The green chair is the same one from our last apartment that I temporarily recovered, but the original fabric is so far gone that it really needs to be professionally reupholstered (it has lots of bare spots and the seat is hardly padded at all). For now I've just thrown a blanket over it-- ta-dah! It's a Streit Slumber Chair that belonged to my grandpa-- it's adjustable with a funny little bar in the back, so you can either recline all the way or sit straight up. The ottoman opens up for storage. Everyone else seems to hate this thing but I really love it, despite it being so old and beaten up.

I was so happy to finally unpack my dolls! I haven't seen them in over a year. I have several more but they won't have a home until I buy a new bookcase. They're Pullips, if interested-- I used to be obsessed with them!

  3. Such an awesome peek into your room! I love the cake/ plate stand for all the bits and bobs - I have a lot of junk so that would be prefect to house it all!
