It is so refreshing to see an apartment on AT that was decorated nicely on a real budget! You have fantastic taste, and, as someone mentioned above, I love how the purple and pink don't come across...
I think I have four blankets on my bed.
I used to live in a colder area, and only had a twin bed. There I had four doubled over quilts, and two blankets, for a total of ten layers.

I question whether that yellow canvas qualifies as "art".
Seems like a small amount of effort should be put into art, not just dumping a quart of paint on a canvas.
Maybe there are some...
I'm a big fan of silence, but sometimes I fall asleep to movies. (Old movies are great, as is Almost Famous and Amelie.)
I used to fall asleep to either the Garden State soundtrack, or the Po...
It's fantastic, that's what it is.
I dig the leather-esque covering. Even with the funny strapping on the arms - it adds character. Plus, a nice (faux) leather chair is so comfy.
I use one to sit up in bed and read. While I sleep, it ends up on one side of the bed out of convenience - it's darn cozy too.
I also have two on my backless couch.
Another green thing you can do with your old bedding is give/sell it to a second-hand store (after washing it, of course.) Someone who needs cheap, good quality, green-ish sheets/blankets will real...
I completely agree with FiatLex. I have lots of boxes around the house - and no money for expensive pieces of plastic that won't be quite the right size. That's a great idea!

I've gone backpacking with a cat.
We had her in a fanny-pack for the hiking, or on our shoulders.

I rather like the art in #3, but I was seeing it as a field of flowers, not snotballs.

One could do a similar thing, but without the "leafy" top, to make it not look like the children's book corner. Personally, I love it.

I just want an elephant in the room.

Fantastic!
We have a cat who likes to pee on bathmats. My best advice: shut the door, and pick up the mat when you're done.
