My New Apartment

Sunday, February 27, 2011

I moved back to Abilene a couple months ago and I thought my grandparents might like to see where I live! My parents and friends have already seen most of these pictures already. Anyway, my apartment is in a nice part of town and it is a gated community and I have my own covered parking space! I'd say it's around 650 sq. feet, but I'm not 100% sure. It's big enough for now.


This is my living room, looking towards the front door.



This is the rest of my living room, including my wood burning fireplace and TV. The stand that the TV is sitting on is actually my coffee table, covered with an old high school stadium blanket (Go Eagles!). I'll be purchasing an actual TV stand as soon as I'm able to, then the coffee table will be set in front of the long couch, as a coffee table should be.



This is my short couch, or love seat. It's a hand-me-down from my parents! This also has a view of my itty bitty kitchen through. The kitchen is accessible from both the left side by the dining room and the right side by the front door. The openness is nice and it feels a little more roomy than a closed off kitchen.



This is my dining room. The big sliding door goes out to the back porch area. It's small, but it fits a couple chairs and that's all I need!



Self explanatory...it's my bedroom! I love my fluffy white down comforter. What you can't see in this picture is the entertainment center that was given to me by my parents. It sits at the foot of my bed. Side note: I painted the canvases hanging on the walls!


This is the sink/mirror part of my bathroom. This is directly attached to my bedroom and there are no doors separating it. The doorway to the left goes into the toilet/shower part of the bathroom, and the doorway to the right goes to my gigantic walk in closet!



And just for fun, this is one of my most favorite pieces in my apartment. It's a $15 antique shelf purchased from a hole-in-the-wall place in Waco called Laverty's and I repurposed it to be a spice rack! I just love it :)


Hope you like my new place...I do!
