I saw that same teal chair in Portland, OR for $40. I regret not buying it.

Your place is amazing. Each room invites you to come in and relax. Like you, I also incorporate old signs, letters/numbers, and other general antiques in my decor. I loved the pillow made from a coffee bean sack.

I love your apartment. It looks like both of our Portland apartments have the same issue: poor kitchen drawer tracking. One of the quirks with living in these old (read: awesome) apartments.

I miss Texas bluebonnets.

My whole apartment is decorated in the stuff that reminds me of the three states I've lived in: Texas, Massachusetts, and Oregon.
living room: has framed Boston & Portland maps, Boston coasters from BostonCoasters.com, Harpoon IPA tap handle, and a picture of Boston at night that was taken from Cambridge.
dining room: is called the "Flag Room" because I have flags from each state in there (including my college). There's also a map of Mt. Hood and Cambridge in there
kitchen: has old Red Sox pennants, a Texas Rangers World Series flag, my "Hillary '08" sign from when I was in Texas, and some old Portland street signs
bedroom: two framed pictures of Boston and pictures of my family (Texas)

I love this! I used to live in the South End in a rowhouse that had not been remodeled in years. We had exposed wiring, original wallpaper in the bathroom and lots of other "originals". It is still my most memorable apartment.
