Thank you so much, Kate. I hope to put out something explaining the design process, soon. I have taught friends how to decorate their homes using the process I used to decorate mine.
@kelliej19792 жыл бұрын
One viewer asked where some of the decorative items were purchased. Here is a list: Cube storage units were from Walmart. Kitchen wall storage was Wayfair. Kitchen storage racks were Etsy. Sofa was Bob's Discount furniture. Side chair from Overstock. Bed is an antique. Dresser was from Bob's Discount furniture. All of the artwork is either gifts or from artist friends, African craftsmen or myself. If you see something you like, leave a question in comments. I will answer you.

You've warmed up the whole place and it looks like a home now. It's also well organized. I've seen a lot of these small apartments and none of them have used the space half as well as you have - and these were designers.

Thank you for showing us a *real* tiny apartment. I keep seeing 5th floor, tiny apartments, with huge windows, high ceilings, and lots of light. That's not the kind of tiny apartment most of us get. Most are basement suites, with lower ceilings, fewer windows, less light. But they too can be made into lovely homes, as I well know from my own life.

I word of advice, which by the way has nothing to do with discrimination. I observe and base my opinions on the actions and behavior of an individual. I myself am of mixed race. Be very cautious with regards to who will be your neighbors. I am currently living near Indian computer engineering students. Ever since they moved in I have been having issues with my Wifi and computer network being hacked. Besides that, they like to save money and so they will fit about 4 people in a small 1 bedroom apartment. Which causes excessive noise at all hours. Additionally they like having phone conversations outside which usually tends to be in front of other tenants apartments which can cause a disturbance. When they use the laundry room they leave the clothes in the machines over night and do not clean up after themselves once they are done. Additionally, They are not very clean in general. Once a cat must have taken a dump near their front door and they never cleaned it up. This attacted flies in my home. It was a mess. By the way, generally speaking, they carry some kind of weird superiority complex. They think they are better than everyone, and they also think they should not have to pay for things. Don't be fooled if the seem nice. I'd play it safe because when you sign a lease you are going to be stuck for a year or more.
