Nice progress and we can really see it starting to come together. You will have it looking great when it's finished. Well done. Breathe :-)

I use Pinterest as an online recipe book, and as inspiration for my home and garden. However I do have my pins organised into specifics i.e. Gardening into Japanese/Minimalist, cottagey, formal, productive, and room-by-room + exteriors for houses. Even my recipes are neatly categorised.
The same applies to my art boards though, which I collect purely for pleasure. They are categorised into classical, contemporary, portraits etc. So perhaps my organising thing is just plain old OCD :-D

I thought, at last, an apartment that really speaks to me. And it is - I loved the parts I could see of it.

I like it when the photos show the whole room, not just parts of it. And there were too many of particular objects etc. I didn't get a terribly good feel of layout or the apartment as a whole, which makes me sad because I so wanted to with this one.

Also (and not just with this tour but many) captions for the images are always appreciated.

Yes girls can be just as messy. Daughter and her best friend moved into their first apartment together this year when they started university. You'd think two immaculately groomed girls who take such pride in their appearance would also like to live in nice surroundings. Hmmm. All I can say is that despite not having anywhere to put your feet when walking, and having to move mountains to find somewhere to sit, they do at least seem to be reasonably clean. They do change their sheets etc regularly, and every couple of weeks they have a crazy tidy-up. The results last less than 24 hours, but I guess it halts the progression of mess to some extent.

At first I was horrified. Now I realise that it's NOT my responsibility and sooner or later they will develop pride in their home and shame of being "outed" as messy when people call in unexpectedly (at present they have no shame lol).

But, again, it is NONE of my business as long as they are happy.

Gorgeous. I think this is an absolute stand-out.
I agree with comments made regarding the equal intensity in the colours meaning they balance each other, and the way the white trim ties it all together in such a clean, uncluttered manner.
Love, love, love.
This is my favourite home featured here without a doubt.

Wow, this is a house I could really live in.

Love the colour palette, and especially like the artwork in the dining room and how the colours have an almost translucent effect against the wall colour. So soothing, so tranquil and serene.

Love, love, love.

My favourite parts? Your wardrobe - that is just awesome!

And your bedroom, because I am not a fan of the white-on-white theme that is currently all the rage in just about every site I visit. I like tasteful colour, and I think your bedroom is just beautiful and a refreshing change from all that clinical whiteness.
