I would LOVE a hall tree just like that one!

Plants! Obviously fresh paint goes a long way, along with decor you can take with you that makes you feel at home. But then add plants! I think they make a home feel alive, and brighter.

What a charming apartment! I love it!

Also, this makes me feel prematurely nostalgic...I'm leaving the Boston area soon, and I think that the humble three decker is one of the things I will miss most.

Hands down: the microwave cart I bought at Target for something like $40 my junior year of college. Almost 7 years later, it has been an essential kitchen item in every single house/apartment I've lived in. It's not the prettiest or most stylish, but by far the one item I think was worth the price and then some, and I'm sure it will continue to fulfill its duty again in my next kitchen!

Love this adorable A-frame. Can I move in? haha.

If you like a firm mattress and have a good futon, I actually find them quite comfortable. Sure, it's a pain to have to put your bed away every night, but I think it seems worth it in the case of this apartment where Brian's created a cozy, yet open living space. Love it!

Original Bon Ami cuts the grease my teeny tiny kitchen is plagued with like nothing else I've used. Happily my everyday grocery store carries it, but I wish they'd carry the other stuff too as I've been wanting to try the newer products.

My kitchen tools are stored in the open by necessity. My kitchen contains zero drawers, one lower cabinet (under sink), and 1 1/2 upper cabinets. there's nowhere else to put these things but out in the open! But my favorite idea was taking two magnetic knife racks from IKEA, screwing them together, and sticking it to the side of the fridge...uses that space well AND avoids extra holes in the wall!

nice, but I hope the old cabinets weren't just tossed in a dumpster.

love it!
