Ha! My old apartment is #1 and my new apartment is #7. Glad to see I was able to make 2 small spaces work well and make a statement!

Hi Patricia- I may be interested in doing a photo shoot at your gorgeous home. If you're interested, could you contact me at adetoth@mshanken.com and I can tell you more about it. Thanks! -Alex

Hi all-
Thanks for the comments. The wallpaper is Graham and Brown. You can order it online. My husband and I did it ourselves and it is surprisingly forgiving bc it's dark and the attention is drawn to the pattern- not the imperfections!

The shower curtain is maremeko at Crate and Barrel. I think they still have it there.

Where did you get the black and white location scroll?

Where did you get the shower curtain and the sconces in the bedroom? Are they vintage?

Incredible. Love the green and wood accents. It's fun, adult, organic and kid friendly at the same time. Absolutely gorgeous.

Thanks for the information about Wonk. Really love their stuff and we're looking to move to brooklyn. Adorable apartment.

This doesn't at all feel slick and modern. It feels cozy,warm and worn in.

Hey Underhill- We're looking to buy a bigger place in Prospect Heights. How do you like the neighborhood?

I believe that when the building was an old tenement, they had shared water closets in the hallways so each apartment had a tub in the kitchen where they bathed. I've been told that families would put a piece of wood over the tub when not in use and it was used as a table. For more modern uses, it's great to fill up with ice and beer when you're having a party. And, you can totally monitor your eggs from the shower.

a few questions from commentors:
-The wing chair was something my husband found on the street and we reupholstered with fabric from Mood.
-The lime green paint was hard to find. I tried a few that looked like baby diaherria before I found this. It was a few years ago but I think it was a dutch boy color from Kmart.
