Sorry it took me so long to answer about the dog beds! We do have dog beds, which were in the corner of the bedroom (just about where the bedroom picture was taken from, unfortunately) when the pictures were taken. We've since moved them out to the living room, just behind where the dogs were laying in the picture. The dog beds are pretty ugly, though, so we're planning on doing some kind of overhall with them this summer (either buying new ones, like this: http://www.greyhoundsonly.com/greyhounds-only-store/beds/crypton-mollyb-bed (the white and green one), or DIYing new covers for them.

Surprisingly, though, our greys enjoy laying on just the carpet, though. And one of them likes laying on the tile when it's warm out (or if it means she can get a little more sun!)

And as far as their toys go, we usually only keep 3 or 4 out at a time, with the rest in the cabinets in the living room. I think that's a good idea for any dogs, regardless of home size, since they don't get bored of their toys as easily. Plus, it stops us from buying toys all the time!

The Post Punk Kitchen is definitely my favorite food blog. You can even search recipes based on ingredients... which is wonderful when you're wondering what to do with something new you get from the CSA!

I like undivided space the most, but it really depends on the floorplan. The tricky part is when you have two people sharing a studio- most people really need to have some kind of space to have some alone time when that's the case. That space can even be a kitchen or balcony, depending on the apartment.

I love your place! And I love the kitchen table- I have the same one!

I love the fireplace! I miss my (decorative) vintage fireplace from a past apartment so much.

Thank you! I would warn you, though, that it does leave a tiny little indentation on the corners of the posters. If its a poster that's really sentimental to you, I would frame it... but we've been pretty happy with the clips! These are the clips I use: http://www.amazon.com/Elmers-Bulldog-Clips-Capacity-Nickel-Plated/dp/B001TQHHTQ/ref=sr_1_5?s=office-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1368199860&sr=1-5&keywords=bulldog+clips

Thank you! The coffee table is actually a midcentury modern bench, which has been really nice when we have extra people over. There are usually plenty of them on Craigslist and Ebay:)

Beautiful place! I would love to see more pictures (particularly what you've done with the kitchen!)

I love the home, but I agree with some of the previous comments: this is not a small home. 900 square feet is more impressive to me if it contains 2-3 bedrooms, to be honest. But I guess that the huge closet in the bedroom could be turned into a bedroom for kids or something!

When I lived in a 1200 square foot apartment, I bought a LOT of stuff in bulk from Amazon (Amazon Prime is the best!!) Toilet paper, Kleenex, paper towels, certain food items, and even lots of toiletries. But now that I'm in 530 square feet (shared with my husband and our two large dogs), it just doesn't make sense to buy in bulk anymore. The savings were nice, and getting it delivered was SUPER convenient, but it's just not doable for everyone.

Oh, and storing it in my car? I personally wouldn't do that unless I had a very secured garage. You would be shocked at what people are willing to break into cars for, and since I have a hatchback, I don't have the privacy of leaving things in my trunk.
