A few people have requested some photos of my new place and although its not nearly where I want it to be, here is where I am at so far. Above is a windowsill in the kitchen with (from left) a
brass apple bell from Etsy, a small plant I just bought at the
Greenpoint farmers market,
toast holder from the Alameda flea market, part of my
Muji Paris in a bag, and a mustard
Jonathan Adler vase.
Another wall in the kitchen had two shelves that we are using to hold cookbooks, the menu from our
wedding, and a cupcake container from
Rose and Radish.
Inspired by the
Maira Kalman exhibit I saw semi-recently, I hung all my white framed pictures in a row. The photos on the left and right sides are mine, the middle left is by
Francois Vigneault and the middle right is
Cindy Tomcyzk. We're still in the kitchen.
This family of brass quails live on a half wall dividing the kitchen from the living room. Behind the sofa, I hung some of the pictures from my
mom,
Julia Rothman, some thrift store paintings and another one of my photographs.
I'm going to skip over my office at this point (there's really not much in there except for my desk and two bikes) and head to the bedroom. I still haven't made a decision as to
bedding at this point, so let's also ignore whats presently there. Our bedroom is in a bit of a disarray, but I do like how
Jeff's cowboy hat looks as display, and all the bright colors of my clothes (mine are on the right, obvs).
Since our bathroom is super itty bitty, I'm creating a small vanity area for myself in the bedroom. Above is a
vintage orange tray from my grandparents,
apple containers from my aunt, a green ceramic bowl I made a million years ago, a super old photo of Jeff and I in SF, and a photo of my grandmother, among other random bits.
Those are all the photos I took for now - I'll post more soon!
