In my attempt to style my own apartment, I realized that my biggest mistake was not ironing my sheets or bed spread. -Frankly, I just didn't have time- nor will I ever. It really does make a difference. I can't wait to share my pictures with all of you and get your feedback on the good the bad and the ugly (hopefully, no one will mention that! I read a blog the other day where the blogger yelled at her commenter's for saying mean things about her apartment - can you imagine? I subscribe to her philosophy of, if you have nothing nice to say, just don't say anything. The other little faux pas was not having enough of a variety of flowers so I ended up using peony in every room and just changing the vases. Lastly when you look at a photo in a magazine the room is practically baron but now I know where all the junk goes you just pull it out and then put it back.
This perfectly pressed bed never happened
