This Old House: Home Sweet Home

I am finally moved into my new Minneapolis apartment near Lake of the Isles, and after a few weekends of treasure hunting, decorating, and organizing, I am pretty happy with the outcome. I am realizing that pretty much everything in my apartment has been found thrifting or antiquing, or I have inherited, and I am satisfied with that. It is far from modern, very vintage-inspired, and calms me down when I walk in the door. It is nice to feel like I have both feet firmly on the ground again.


My new farmhouse table, found antiquing in Linden Hills. It has two leaves that I can add in, and the sides have drop-leaves. I can see myself having this for years to come. I just need to find some more dark stained wooden chairs. Swoon*





I found this vintage handmade rug on Etsy, it is the perfect mix of masculine and feminine, with nature scenes and earth tones. I love how the colors are subdued.
