P.S. Forgot to say how much the artwork added to the living areas! Lovely there again!

Set up very nicely, so nicely decorated...but where the heck is the kitchen?!

As a knitter and a 50 yr old wish I had been older in the 60s woman, I love each and every selection in these photos! Years ago in the movie When a Man Loves a Woman, the kitchen of the main characters featured a long farm table with good sturdy high back chairs each painted a primary colour. I've remembered that detail for years. Pleased to see something similar here!

Although I always thought I would have said, make sure you put a tub in, I'm surprised to say to you - do what makes you happy! I am 50 always have showers and as long as it had a built in bench, like JulieJZZ above suggests, I would be happy happy. Baths are nice but with my arthritic knee if I got in, I would never get out! Hope the reno goes really well!

Your apartment is cosy and made perfect with all of the items that give an indication of you are. Love that it is not all sweet, bit of an edge...wonderful combination! I would want another comfortable chair in the living room area, but that is me and I'm 50. The only thing I didn't like for me personally? For me, dressers must have knobs. No pulls, no grip underneath. I need knobs! Thank you for sharing your lovely home!!

the flannel sheet cure is a great one. I could never lift the mattress enough to get those suspenders on ( though they seem like a smart idea). tucking in a flannel sheet? That I can do. Thanks for the tip!

I love the style of this apartment and the wonderful feeling of home. A truly wonderful blend of antiques and modern. Would love to try and save some of the photos as inspiration!
